The Tollett Family

The Tollett family is so special to me! Ashlee was one of my first connections when we moved to Kansas City and her son, Asher, and Solomon hit it off and became best friends almost immediately. Ashlee means so much to me because when I was really discouraged with my photography a year ago and was going to completely give up and just be an outsourcing editor for other photographers she gave me lots of encouragement and told me that I couldn’t quit. Well I’m so glad she did, because I feel like my work is better than ever and am so excited about where my business is going. I owe it to this girl! She was the push and voice of reason that I needed to move forward instead of stay the same. She is also a photographer based out of Overland Park, Ks… Ashlee Brooke Photography. Her family is really big into nature and traveling for outdoor adventures and so they wanted to rent a canoe at Shawnee Mission Park for their session!

Anna

Anna and her mom, Lori, were driving through to Wisconsin from their Colorado vacation and she stopped in for a few hours for a mini seminar to learn how I shoot and edit my photos. We went and photographed Anna in Parkville before coming home and working on the photos in Lightroom. Here are my favorites!2014-07-27_00252014-07-27_00262014-07-27_00272014-07-27_00282014-07-27_00292014-07-27_0030

July shenanigans

July is probably the most eventful month in Missouri for us because it is always hot enough to play in the water and there are tons of fun adventures and festivals to go to! This is our second year to attend the Wyandotte County Fair and Solomon just loves it! I think I love it as much as he does, so it’s a win-win. I tried to use Solomon to ask Josh to buy a $5 bunny there, it didn’t work out in our favor… maybe next year…

The Roberts Family

The Roberts family is very dear to my heart. I photograph them all the time because they are the reason we moved to Missouri! Josh and Billy have been best friends since the 8th grade and our kids are only 3 months younger than their’s! They have the most amazing place out in rural Missouri and we always photograph on their incredible hill, but found a really neat red barn just down the road too. Here are my favorites from this year’s family session! 2014-07-27_00012014-07-27_00022014-07-27_00032014-07-27_00042014-07-27_00052014-07-27_00062014-07-27_00072014-07-27_00082014-07-27_00092014-07-27_00102014-07-27_00112014-07-27_00122014-07-27_00132014-07-27_00142014-07-27_0015

When I was 12 I began to write an autobiography that i titled,

"Lauren Lee, a horse of a different color".

 

 

From childhood Self discovery, storytelling and curiosity have always been the foundations of my heart.

 

 

The exploration of everything in life has always allured me farther and farther into risk, creativity and wonder. I have always been one to swim up stream and carve out a life that was a little bit unique from the status quo.

 

 

I harness all of these gifts and brings them to you through my photography experience. My keen eye for uncommon beauty, fearless sense of adventure and strong willed endurance and optimism provide you with the best possible photos.

 

 

Seemingly Effortlessly.

 

 

 

I hope you enjoy the colorful photos, stories and adventures that i share with you!

 

We have just uprooted from our hometown of Lubbock, Texas to move to Dripping Springs!

 

I am still taking sessions in BOTH locations as I travel back and forth to visit family. Follow my social media and subscribe to my newsletter for my latest travel dates.
