Hi, I'm Lauren! Welcome to my blog! I'm a Maryland wedding and portrait photographer that loves beautiful light and has an obsession with the water. This is my pretty little place to show off all of my most recent photography adventures and the stories behind them. So get comfy and have a look around!

Photo Date with Marisa!! {Maryland Portrait Photographer}

Marisa Flash Date-6The photography gods were shining down on me the day I first contacted Marisa of Misa Me Photography to second shoot for me a few years ago.  I am so grateful she said yes to this stranger that randomly emailed her because since then she has been my go-to girl when she’s available (which isn’t as often anymore because people are discovering her amazingness and booking her up!).  I love this girl like crazy…..she’s down-to-earth, just the right amount of goofy, super gorgeous, has an infectious smile, and wears awesome red lipstick that I’m jealous of but definitely don’t think I can pull off.  She is the Queen of sunflare (which you can see in her portraits she took of me here!) but recently decided to tackle the super fun world of off camera flash.  When she asked if we could have a photo date so she could learn and practice I was all for it!!  We went to a local parking garage at sunset (seriously, I’m now in love with parking garages and if any of my couples want to do a session in a parking garage, let’s do it!!) and had some fun learning and experimenting.  The only time I ever get to do off camera flash work is at weddings, so it was great to play around with it without any pressure.
Marisa, thank you so much for asking me on this play date and I can’t wait to do another one!!!  🙂
