Meet the amazing Lauren & Lincoln…

Last week my 8 month old baby girl, Emma, and I spent a relaxing and fun afternoon with Lauren & Lincoln of Lauren Brooks Photography at their wonderful new studio…their home!  They recently decided to move their SE photography studio into their cozy 1920′s home on the north side of Portland.  What a delight it was to be one of the first to see it and I just know clients are going to feel very welcomed when they meet up with these two to discuss their big day.  Lauren & Lincoln are some of the sweetest and most gracious people you could ever meet.  I first met this amazing pair when we worked together at a fun and memorable wedding at Edgefield back in September of ’08 and we are now not only colleagues but also pals.  I still recall sitting in the Meadow behind Blackberry Hall at Edgefield taking a short break during the dinner portion of the reception and instantly hitting it off with these two…they are so easy to be around and love to laugh and just have a good time!  At this point we were both engaged and in chatting about our own upcoming weddings we realized we had the same date!  Of course that led into all sorts of other wedding-related details and the rest is history.  These two have a style that is fresh and unique and an approach that truly reflects who they are and it shines through in a big way in their beautiful photographs.  Their focus at each wedding is to capture the natural flow of events throughout the day and to tell the story of each couple as their day unfolds.  They are the type of photographers who manage to capture every detail but are barely seen, something that most couples strive to achieve while selecting the perfect photographer…not always an easy mix of characteristics to find but these two balance it exceptionally.  I am always thrilled when I have the opportunity to spend time or work with this talented husband-wife team and I just know my clients will be smitten the moment they meet these two, both with their personalities and with their work.  The photos in this blog are from another wedding we worked on with Lauren & Lincoln last August up at the beautiful Stonehedge Gardens in Hood River.  It was my first wedding back after maternity leave and what a perfect way to hit the ground running!  The gorge is always a great place for a wedding but this place in particular is just magical with its serene and natural beauty to surround the couple and their guests, and August 15th was a very special day as Evelini & Andy tied the knot.  As professional wedding vendors, we could not ask for a nicer couple to work with and these vibrant photos really represent the joy and happiness of this day.  Weddings like this are what make our job (if you can even call it that) so incredible.  Thank you, Evelini & Andy, for allowing us to be a part of your truly memorable wedding day…it was an honor.  Lauren & Lincoln’s work has been featured in Portland Bride & Groom, Oregon Bride, Snippet & Ink and Style Me Pretty.  For more information on Lauren Brooks Photography please check out their website at www.laurenbphoto.com or their blog at www.laurenbphoto.com/blog.  As a special offer to our readers, Lauren Brooks Photography is offering 5% off any wedding photography package booked when mentioning this blog.  Thank you so much for your generosity Lauren & Lincoln, a wonderful lunch in your beautiful home and for some great laughs.  I can’t wait to do it again soon!
