LAUREN CROWSTON PHOTOGRAPHY

Celebrating the people you love and this moment right now.

“Cozy poses with a little bit of play”

Portland Metro family photographer: here to provide forever images that are a little mix of let them be free and here’s the one Grandma will love. Booking year round affordable mini sessions for every budget and custom sessions for that dreamy PNW location.

As a mom of two boys, that means I get it when kids need time to warm up and that we all have days when we don’t want our photos taken. We don’t always have to smile but I’m not above getting a little silly or recruiting parents to do a dance behind me. My goal for your extended custom session is to provide both nice posed images but also room and space for your family to express themselves. My mini sessions are the perfect fit for families who want “just one nice photo of us all together”.

Ready to gather your people + make memories together? Let’s get started, my goal is to make that the easiest part of your day!

  1. Look at the session options and pricing (mini sessions are booked online, custom sessions booked via email).

2. I’ll send you a contract and invoice for a prepayment amount to reserve your session date and time. Once I’ve received those, your session is booked!

3. I’m available to help with any questions and provide location ideas for your custom sessions.

4. Your balance is due at your session. After your session, I’ll deliver an online gallery 2-3 weeks after your session date. You can order prints, download digital images and share your link with family/friends.

That’s it! 🙂


“Lauren has been taking our family photos for the past almost 7 years. I absolutely love looking back at how we’ve all grown and changed and I’m so grateful that my kids feel comfortable enough to be their goofy selves around her (this doesn’t come easily to them and speaks to how wonderful she is!). Lauren is incredibly easy to communicate with, always has ideas of how to pose that turn out great and seems to get pictures back to us on a timeline that feels impossibly fast. We love Lauren!”

“Lauren is a fantastic photographer! We’ve used her multiple times. She’s calm, kind, and very skilled at working with all ages, including uncooperative toddlers! She also has a variety of beautiful locations for shoots. Lauren is our go-to photographer and I can’t recommend her highly enough.”
