Randi and Jared were a total blast to photograph -- so in love and so expressive about it. We even got a lucky break from all the summer rain spells, so we had time to hit the streets for some Tribeca fun. :)
I flew out to Austin this weekend to photograph Rachel and Sterling's wedding at the beautiful Mercury Hall. I was super excited to hear they were getting married since I knew them both from Baylor, where Rachel and I took French classes together all through college. (She's working on her PhD now... wow!)
Austin is such a beautiful city, and so relaxing -- but Rachel, Sterling, and their wonderful families were the reason I enjoyed myself so much.
The pictures are beautiful. You captured some special and unique moments. Great job!

You did an absolutely fabulous job! You certainly captured the love Sterling and Rachel share for each other. Now I fully realize what Rachel meant when she said, "No one else will do but Lauren to take my wedding photographs!!!". You took a very, very special day and made it even more special. It was a true pleasure to meet you. Thanks for everything. With sincere thanks, Dana Pate (aka Mother-of-the-Bride)
Naturally, inspiration like that can only be found in Texas. Lauren, you're a gem, so glad to have you in the circle.
(06.05.09 @ 10:19 AM)Lauren! The pictures look absolutely AMAZING! I can't wait to see the rest. When I move back to nyc this summer I will need new headshots, so I hope you'll be able to do them!
(06.05.09 @ 11:24 AM)These are great! I've never seen anyone shoot through the windows at Mercury Hall. Great idea!!!
(07.11.09 @ 05:51 AM)Hi Lauren,
great work!! Your pictures shows the soul of this wedding.
(07.15.09 @ 12:02 PM)These are so fantastic, Lauren!! Such a dynamic group of images...

I promise I'm going to catch up with weddings and engagements soon. I feel like it's been forever since I posted one. Megan and Ben's wedding was such a fun day -- it was one of the first warm days of spring, and the perfect way for Megan and Ben to begin their SIX-MONTH HONEYMOON around the world! They left their jobs, apartment, put all of their things in storage, and are currently jetting around the globe. Amazing. :)
They had their first meeting on the roof deck of the Ravel Hotel, overlooking Manhattan.
Their wedding cake was amazing -- there were two little runners on the top, which is how Megan and Ben met, while running a marathon. (Ben made the cake himself!)
beautiful. i love the blue (teal? aqua?) wall behind them in the first shot. amazing!
