Hello my darling, I'm Ren
Wedding Photographer based in
Washington
I’m a Washington elopement, couples, and intimate wedding photographer creating across Washington and the Pacific Northwest. I document honest, intimate love stories so you can look back years from now and truly see yourselves in them.
This isn’t about perfect poses or curated moments. It’s about the way you reach for each other without thinking. The quiet in-betweens. The laughter that doesn’t ask permission.
Because this time is yours.
Your story, exactly as it is. Your love, exactly as it feels.
Based in Washington, documenting love stories across Washington and the Pacific Northwest—wherever your story leads, I’m there with you.
I was born and raised in Washington and somehow found my way to Bellingham—and never left. I fell madly in love with it. It’s where most of my family is, where I met my husband, and where so many of my sweetest memories live.
When I stepped into this work as a Washington wedding photographer and elopement photographer, I realized I had fallen just as deeply in love with couples, too. It didn’t matter what season of love they were in—whether it was a quiet couples session or a wedding day that changed everything—I wanted to be there for it. And honestly, there is no better place to begin than right here in Washington.
What I love most about being a wedding photographer in Washington is that it truly has something for everyone. A rustic barn surrounded by open fields. A rocky beach with the sun dancing across the water. Lush forests that feel like something out of a dream. From coastlines to mountains, Washington gives you space to create a wedding or elopement that actually feels like you.
And if your heart pulls you a little further, I’m right there with you. As a Washington and Oregon wedding and elopement photographer, I document love stories across Washington and Oregon—wherever feels like yours.
Wherever we end up, I want you to feel held. Supported. Seen. When you’re in front of my camera, you don’t have to perform or be anything other than yourselves. I’m there to reflect your love back to you—honestly, gently, and exactly as it is.
I’m here for you, every step of the way.
So let’s go somewhere that makes you feel—and create something that lasts.

Love Notes,
My name's Lauren, but you can call me Ren. It's so good to meet you. I have had the beautiful privilege of photographing love and connection for the past six years. I still smile when I tell people that it's my job, because it's never felt like a "job". I adore it more than I can ever put into words. Being invited into such incredibly intimate and vulnerable moments is something that I do not take lightly. Documenting love stories is what I do best, because nothing is more important to me than helping you remember what it felt like to love the ones you love right here, right now. I am not here to show up with a camera a shoot some pretty photos of you and your love in front of a pretty sunset - any photographer can do that. What I want to create is an experience that is a genuine echo of your love, an experience that feels genuine and unique to you.
Let's get to know one another - I'll go first.
