based in Springfield, Illinois + traveling all over central Illinois, St. Louis, and beyond!
wedding + senior photographer
hi there! i'm lauren!
I am a wedding and portrait photographer who keeps things light, fun, and full of energy. I’m based out of Springfield, Illinois however I love traveling all over the midwest and beyond.
I’ve been so excited to share Natalie’s Class of 2026 senior portrait session, and this one was truly a favorite. Natalie is a LWP Senior Spokesmodel and a Williamsville High School senior whose optimism and laid-back energy make her such a joy to photograph.
We spent the evening exploring some of my favorite locations around downtown Springfield, Illinois and Lake Springfield, which created the perfect variety of backdrops for her senior photos. From urban textures to scenic lake views, every spot highlighted Natalie’s natural beauty and easy confidence in front of the camera.
Sessions like this are why I love being a Springfield IL senior photographer—capturing genuine personalities and creating senior portraits that feel fun, relaxed, and completely true to each senior. Natalie absolutely shined, and I’m so honored to have her representing the Class of 2026 on the LWP Senior Team.
