Hi, I'm Lauren 👋Lifestyle, portrait, and wedding photographer.


A woman photographs with a DSLR camera in a stunning red autumn landscape under clear blue sky.

Born and raised in Maine, I am a wife, mom, lover of the outdoors, and someone who feels most at home with a camera in hand.


Since 2016, I’ve photographed over 50 weddings and countless families, couples, and milestones. My couples often describe working with me as calm, easy, and natural — like having someone by your side who knows when to give direction and when to simply let the moment unfold.


I believe photography should feel like breathing, not performing. Whether we’re standing on a dock in the fog, chasing light across an open field, or laughing through the chaos of a family session, I want your photos to feel honest, warm, and like you.


I’m not just here to take pretty images. I’m here to help you slow down long enough to feel your life while you’re living it, and to leave you with photographs that bring those feelings back every time you look at them.


When I’m not behind the camera, you can usually find me hiking backroads with my family, spotting wildlife, exploring small Maine towns, or documenting my own little world just as intentionally as I do for my clients.

The heart behind Peak & Pine

I notice the quiet in-between moments that often get overlooked

I value ease, connection, and presence over perfect posing

I treat every session — wedding, family, or otherwise — like a story worth preserving

Most of my clients return year after year — from engagement to wedding to family photos — and that trust is the greatest honor of my work.

Testimonial

"Lauren is one of the most talented people I’ve ever met! She captured exactly what we envisioned — every emotion, every moment — perfectly. The love we have for each other shines through in every photo, and these are memories we’ll cherish and share with our family for generations. I actually cried looking through them! I can’t recommend Peak & Pine enough to anyone wanting to capture life’s special moments. Lauren will forever be our go-to photographer, and we are so thankful for her!"

Testimonial

"Shooting with Lauren is a DREAM! She has photographed all our major moments from engagement to wedding to family photos with our son. She is able to make even the most nervous person comfortable in front of the camera! She seamlessly switches between any ideas you have and new ideas that you might not have thought of, resulting in the best photos possible. She was able to get my 2 year old, fluent in saying ‘no’, to smile and pose for our family session which is not easy! I recommend Lauren to anyone and everyone looking for timeless and beautiful photos!"
