"Sometimes I still can't believe that I actually went ahead with the shoot. I am so proud of myself! I saw myself from a different perspective and I loved it! "
"Lauren makes you feel at ease the moment you walk in, it felt like hanging out with your best friend. Her bubbly, friendly nature uplifts you in every way possible. Lauren guides you through every step of the way. I felt confident and completely comfortable the entire time."
"Do it! Start saving your dollars and totally do it! I was well out of my comfort zone and had never considered anything like this but I am so relieved that I was added to Lauren's VIP group! It was one of the most empowering, uplifting, motivating, classy, positive and FUN things that I have ever done"
"I felt energised and empowered, like I had just celebrated a really important but under represented part of my womanhood."
"The only surprise was how relaxed and free flowing it was! It is no exaggeration to say it was like being with a friend and just having fun. It’s all about you as a client and what you want out of the session, which is such a great atmosphere for creating beautiful work."
"I loved getting outside my comfort zone and wearing garments that I wouldn’t usually wear. I came away from the session more confident and it has inspired me. I look forward to clothes shopping now as I see myself in a different light and I’m happy to try new types of clothing I wouldn’t usually pick and I have the confidence to wear them."
"I absolutely loved my session! Lauren made me feel so incredibly comfortable! To the point where I actually 'forgot' that I was walking around in next to nothing. I wasn't even thinking about that part! Lauren was amazing. She stepped me through everything. She provided good clear instructions and encouragement throughout the whole session. Lauren demonstrated the poses and then continued to prompt me as required in such a gentle manner. I couldn't fault her. Lauren has definitely got a gift. Her passion, enthusiasm and encouragement is so inspiring and uplifting!"
"I felt beautiful, empowered and had more confidence. I was overwhelmed that the image was actually me."
"Overall it was fun and creative - Lauren makes it easy to be yourself while simultaneously exploring the theme in new and exciting ways. It was like hanging out with your best girl friends, helping each other be their best selves! I felt comfortable the whole time, there was no moment that I felt forced to be anything I didn’t want to be, which is such an important yet regrettably rare thing for photography as a platform. I applaud you Lauren!"
"Trust the process - The impact from a session with you lasts more than just the time at the shoot."
"After the first few minutes I forgot I was even in just lingerie and really started to enjoy the shoot. Lauren was very professional and gave lots of direction with poses. It was so much fun and we had plenty of laughs!"
"If you have thought about doing a session. Do it. Don’t wait to lose weight, change etc, whatever the reason, realise you are perfect the way you are, you are beautiful. Take the leap and embrace the Pure beauty you are."
"I am incredibly grateful for Lauren and am thankful I took the leap. Lauren your an inspiration."

"The session felt like posing & having fun with my girlfriend (which really it was!) Lauren was excellent in demonstrating & describing poses, facial expressions & hand placement, so I felt amazingly confident in everything I was doing & I love how genuinely excited she’d get whenever I nailed a pose or expression or just did what she wanted without prompting. I am exhausted now - the session is a complete body workout!"
"I was comfortable the whole time & Lauren always asked if I was happy doing a pose, whether I was confident getting into position or could hold it."
"You won't regret it! Not one single bit! Your body will however be very sore for the days afterwards but oh my god, it is well worth it!"
"Do it! Seriously. I was THE most negative person heading into it and I am usually SO positive. I was convinced I was going to break Lauren and even though she is an amazing, amazing photographer and very, very talented that she wouldn't get ones single shot I liked. I narrowed it down to 30 something I LOVED at my reveal! The whole process- being pampered with hair and makeup is awesome. And it is wonderful to have these memories to look back on."
I was surprised at how comfortable I was being photographed by someone in lingerie and the amount of fun I had, wasn’t many moments were we weren’t laughing."
"It was all so brilliant and I would recommend it to anyone. Incredibly soul soothing and empowering!"
"Seriously - take the plunge and do a shoot. And even if you are really, really nervous and scared - take a breath and do it. It's the best!"
"I was honestly blown away! I just kept thinking and saying 'oh my god!' I felt SO proud and relieved that I decided to go ahead with the shoot. I felt amazing!"
"I was 100% expecting to feel ridiculously awkward and uncomfortable. I was worried that I wouldn't have a clue what I was doing and that it would reflect in the photos. But I couldn't have been more wrong. For someone that has always 'worried too much', I felt so comfortable and supported by Lauren. And the biggest thing that surprised me... I had the most FUN that I have had in ages! I felt so confident and empowered when I walked out of the studio which was the best part!"
"I am so grateful to have been given the opportunity to be a part of a creative opportunity by a woman FOR women. Our world needs more platforms for women to express their sexuality, sensuality and sense of self confidence; and for that, Lauren, I thank you."
Just know that it is the most judgmental-free, safest and most comfortable place I’ve ever felt outside of a home. It’s honestly such a beautiful environment with nothing but laughs, love and good vibes. Nothing at all to be afraid of.
