Flip through a wedding magazine, and you’ll see “beautiful”
But weddings should be so much more than just beautiful.

Playful. Expressive. SEXY. Novel. Unconventional.

Weddings should be a celebration of who you and your partner are, and you’re so much more than a ball gown and six-tiered vanilla cake.

But you know this. That’s why you’re bravely throwing out the rulebook and creating a day you’ll never want to forget. And I’ll be there to capture it all.

Show Me The ReaL

You’re definitely going to look kickass on your wedding day. But can we take a moment for the real stuff, too? Jump-in-the-pool-in-your-tux. Stains-on-your-dress. Mascara-running-down-your-face.

I’LL TAKE THOSE DISPLAYS OF RAW EMOTION AND HONEST CONNECTION OVER ANXIETY-INDUCED PERFECTION ANY DAY.

I’m Lauren Parr (she/her)

but you can call me “LP,” “girl with the cute dogs,” or even “creative director” because that’s how I view my role in your wedding day design matrix

I work with Austin couples and their wedding planners who throw up a middle finger to the rules of weddings and throw down on the dance floor. The secret to my magazine-worthy wedding images is simple — vulnerability — which I earn by creating a safe space and forming deep connections with my couples.

My essence of celebrating the real you goes much deeper than just wedding clients.

As an artist, you’ve gotta be the real you in everything you do to produce incredible work. And that starts with building a photography business that you love. I’ve done that with mine, and I’d love to help you do the same.

Good News,
Bad News

The good news is that you’re going to get rad wedding photos when we work together. The bad news is that now you’re stuck with me for life, because I get really invested in my clients (it’s why my photography is so good).

Having a baby? Celebrating an anniversary? I’d love to capture all of your life’s milestones.
