THIS WAY TO BRANDING & BUSINESSES

As a mom to the most amazing blended family, I know just how fast time seems to move when you are focused on being in the moment. Our little ones turn into big kids in a blink of an eye, and the big moments we worked so hard to get to so quickly become a memory. As your photographer, I will honor all these moments, big and small, and take care to give you heirloom keepsakes that will retell these stories for generations.

PHOTOGRAPHY

THIS WAY TO BACK TO LIFESTYLE

As business owners, we all know how important it is to put our best foot forward when showing our clients how we will serve them. Having photos that show who you are, what you do, and how you will make your people feel are essential to effective communication. I want to showcase the best your business has to offer with personally tailored content in IRL, a studio, or even your own brick and mortar store.

Lauren is incredible. She was flexible when the weather didn’t cooperate, and her communication from my request for information through the final gallery was awesome! She is fun and laid back. It felt like the fastest session but not rushed at all. She has a gift when it comes to using the gorgeous scenery and lighting and offers different options. We had 16 people, and one of my nephews is not a fan of pictures. She was excellent with him. She genuinely cared about our family and the special time that we were celebrating. She was patient and got all of the shots we wanted plus so many more. The results far exceeded our expectations. I hope we get to do it again when we vacation there. She has given us a priceless gift that we will cherish forever.

"Lauren was nothing short of amazing! Aside from her overall professionalism and flawless photography, Lauren really blew us away with how great she was with our kids! She kept them engaged and smiling, which awarded her the ability to capture a bunch of beautiful little moments! We’ve had our past experiences with hiring professional photographers, and I can say with confidence, Lauren is by far the best we’ve ever had the pleasure of working with!! If you’re in need of photos, I can assure you, she’s the go-to in Pensacola!!"

"Our photos are amazing. Lauren did such a wonderful job directing our family of 6! She is definitely an outstanding photographer. We look so relaxed and happy in all the photos and the experience just felt so genuine and natural. There wasn’t a single photo she delivered that I didn’t absolutely LOVE. If you’re looking for a photographer in the area, you will not be disappointed with Elle Kay Photography."

"Lauren is such a delight! She's both professional and fun! She made our children feel comfortable and had them giving their best smiles with her jokes and playful manner. We love our family photos and look forward to having Lauren capture more memories in the future!"
