I love an
different detail
You might have noticed my packages say “multi-day coverage,” and this is because your wedding day can be a blur, even when you’re eloping, and I want you to truly be in the moment.
These sessions are more intimate, relaxed, and go at your pace.
You can get married in your backyard on Saturday night, and hike through the mountains with me on Sunday to get a different scene (and another wear out of your dress, if you want!).
This is why I incorporate a non-traditional element and include day-before or day-after sessions to extend the magic of your wedding day.

If you are looking for a photographer, do not hesitate to reach out to Daymark Studios!
Lauren's style of photography captured our day beautifully with timeless formals, heartwarming black and white photos and fun/goofy candids that felt authentic to us and our people. She was very warm and personable over our phone call, in subsequent emails, and in person on our day. She went above and beyond by taking us to a beautiful offsite location for photos that matched our vision for whimsical/nature shots and by delivering our sneak peek album immediately afterwards. She adapted well to our timeline and people but also directed us when needed to ensure we got all the photos we wanted. We feel so blessed to have worked with Lauren and would 10/10 recommend Daymark Studios to capture your upcoming special moments.
-Erica and Kurt
Lauren was amazing to work with. She was willing to travel back to the East Coast to capture our big day.
From the very beginning, she was so open to our ideas and organized when it came to shot-lists and day of timeline. We had a large wedding and large families that all wanted to get photos taken. Lauren was able to follow a tight schedule and stick to our predetermined shot list. One big highlight for us was the use of film along with digital. My husband is a photographer by trade, and he requested that Lauren shoot some photos on a film camera. She was so willing to do this for us and it truly made the day that much more special. She is a true gem and anyone would be lucky to have her there to capture your big day!
-Nicole and Jordan
These were our first professional photos together, and she made us feel natural cozying up to one another in front of the lens.
My fiancée and I booked Lauren for bridal portraits + candids of the 2 of us in our wedding attire. I let Lauren know I loved the vibe in Seattle's Pioneer Square neighborhood and the Smith Tower. Lauren immediately drew up a mood board with specific areas and shots she had in mind, and she also called the Smith Tower to ensure we could photograph on-site. She clearly knows her way around Seattle and researched to make sure our photo session went according to plan. Throughout our shoot, she made my fiancée and I feel SO comfortable. Lauren has a skill for capturing couples' chemistry - we have so many fun candids to cherish now. She finished our portrait gallery quickly and was also great at communicating with us. I highly recommend Lauren and Daymark Studios!

You can also add on vintage inspired 35mm film photography.
Film photography holds a special place in my heart because it encourages me to slow down and savor the moment, just like it will do for you. You’ll experience a unique and special way of capturing your memories. It isn’t about ultra-perfecting every shot, but rather, embracing imperfections and capturing the genuine beauty of the moment you’re in.
With film, every shot is a unique masterpiece—there’s no replicating it.

While I adore intimate celebrations, I understand that some couples have so much love in their lives. That said, each year, I take a very limited amount of larger weddings with 50+ guests.
If you’re interested in booking me for your larger wedding, please get in touch.
REACHING OUT TO ASK!
The process:
01: Inquire
Fill out my form to start the conversation (yay!) then we’ll plan a time to connect on the phone or via Facetime.
02: Have a conversation
To me, the most important thing is that we vibe. This day is one of the most important days of your life, you want it to be perfect, and that begins with a solid connection.
05: Your wedding day
The day is here! We’ll celebrate your love and have endless fun doing it. Your day shouldn’t be stressful, and I’ll do everything in my power to make it as joy-filled as possible. If you chose to do a pre or post-shoot, we’ll do that as well! Then, you’ll receive your sneak peeks in 24 hours!
04: Planning
We’ll start planning your day! I’m here for all questions and suggestions based on what you’re looking for, so we can plan your perfect intimate wedding or elopement.
03: Secure your date
If it feels like a “yes!” on both ends, I’ll start the process by sending you the contract to lock in your date, then you’ll pay the deposit. I’m flexible with payment plans, so we’ll co-create one together.
