I've
always been
storyteller.

But I never set out to be a photographer. I was (and still am!) going to be a writer. And then as I worked toward that writing goal, someone put a camera in my hand and asked me to try telling stories with something besides words. So with an English nerd's love for character and tone, a romantic's love for poignant beauty, and a realist's love for imperfection, I dove in.

I've
always been a
story-teller.

That was back in 2010.

Since that time, photography has changed much of my life. It's brought me some of my dearest friends. It's reshaped the way my husband Danny and I view serving others. It has even literally taken me around the world. One thing that hasn't changed: my soul-stirring desire to tell stories that feel so real you're sure you knew them before you heard them. Or saw them. It's my privilege to tell those stories for my clients, and for the generations of their families still to come.

I have spontaneously decided to take the day off. Because you only turn the age of your birth date once. It’s my birthday, and I plan to enjoy it. 🙂 ~ Laura

After a wedding weekend, I try to spend the majority of Monday not working. I clean the house, I run errands. Basically, anything I would normally do on a weekend to keep my life running smoothly. Yesterday I did a so-so job of that. I still spent the morning culling images, responding to emails. Then I […]

I came home from the Pursuit 31 Conference seven days ago, absolutely on fire and embracing this life God has given me. It isn’t exactly where I thought I would be at this point — a much younger version of me had assumed there would be multiple children and bestselling novels by the age of almost-twenty-eight. […]

I sat on the airplane, in an aisle seat, slowly turning through the pages of my little journal, rubbing the soft suede that had begun to peel away from the paper. The man in the seat next to me lowered the armrest between us, but I could tell he was only trying to make it […]

Recently, I have been listening to Seth Godin’s incredible book The Icarus Deception. I can’t say enough good things about how challenging, liberating, and inspiring this book has been for me — but today I want to say only one thing that I’ve taken away from this book. Until something you’ve created is shared, Godin argues, […]

Never, ever in my wildest dreams did I imagine that I would get to work with my husband on a daily basis. It is such a joy. Even when we’ve stayed up late into the night revamping our website (all last week) or been so tired and sore after a wedding that we can hardly […]
