Lauren Mann Photography, LLC

I don't think I will have enough room to write all the wonderful things I can say about Lauren Mann. To many, price is a very important factor, especially when planning a wedding, and her rates are extremely reasonable and, in my opinion, far less than she deserves for the quality of photos and service she provides. After looking at our pictures, there is no way I would have used anyone else for our special day. She has a wonderful personality and makes you feel very comfortable. She really knows how to bring out the best smile on anyone. Great, Amazing, and Awesome do not come close to what I would describe Lauren and her photography. We were very BLESSED to be lucky enough to share our day with her and have her create the memories that we can keep for the rest of our lives!

Lauren Mann is one of the most amazing photographers I know. Doug and I had the honor to have her photograph our wedding, and it was great. She is extremely professional but also extremely personable. Her pictures are high quality and capture the heart of our day. The albums are so beautiful, and we are really looking forward to keeping in touch with her throughout the year.

Wow! Where to begin? Lauren was the first "vendor" we booked for our wedding. I knew right away when we met with her that I wanted her to be a part of all our wedding events from Engagement pictures to the Reception. Lauren is so sweet, caring, and willing to work with you. She gets stuff done in a timely manner, she is very professional, she has a great eye for detail and I believe she truly enjoys what she does. She was a big help on the wedding day, she came to my house and took pictures of all the girls getting ready. Once dressed and ready at the Chapel, she drove some my bridesmaids to a park for pre-wedding portraits. She captured those precious moments that I will now always remember from our ceremony and reception. Not only does she take posed pictures, but also the most important candid pictures that you will cherish forever and ever. We bought the platinum package and could not be any happier with how everything turned out. We could not have asked for a better photographer. We will definately be calling Lauren when it comes time to start our family because she has been such a joy to work with. I simply cannot put in to words how great and talented she really is! LAUREN YOU ARE AWESOME!

I cannot even begin to tell you all how much we loved working with Lauren Mann Photography! She is truly an amazing photographer and a great person. Her work is fabulous; we loved every single picture she took! She was so flexible and easy to work with which definitely helped us to feel at ease. Lauren was easy to get in touch with and always got back to us within a very short amount of time. We would use her again in a minute and would recommend her to even our pickiest of friends! :) Love, love, love!

We loved working with Lauren. From the day Mom and I first met with her to the big day itself, I knew the photos were one thing I didn't need to worry about at all. It meant the world to have an experienced photographer who was as comfortable doing the classic, technical shots as well as the fun/more trendy stuff, and everything turned out just beautiful. Ben and I and my parents are so glad we made the investment in her for the wedding, because the photos really capture the spirit of the day and that is just priceless! - meg, chapel hill, nc

There really are not enough words to say how much I enjoyed working with Lauren Mann. Everything was so fantastic that I really could not have had any better experience anywhere! Her package are FANTASTIC and you really get a lot for what you are paying for. plus everything is in outstanding quality from the albums that you receive to the 4x6's that she prints to all the small touches that she adds along the way to make everything just feel so special! My wedding album is so amazing that I really can't believe that it is mine and ALL the pictures are so beautiful! But the best thing about working with Lauren is that, I got to work with Lauren! : ) She is so amazing and really takes extra time and care with you! I loved getting to work with her and share those memories with her! She is professional and SO talented and just a joy to be around that I knew that my photography was one thing that I did not have to worry about! She gave me fabulous pictures that will last me a lifetime and memories I will always cherish to go with them! What a blessing!!!!!

Lauren not only created that personal relationship you hope to have with your photographer with me and my fiance, but was professional throughout the entire process! I couldn't have asked for more in a wedding photographer; she got all of the shots we wanted (and then some) :) and the turnaround time for our albums was amazing - the photo quality, perfect. I can't wait to book her for future family photos and would recommend her to anyone and everyone looking for a professional, thoughtful, and caring photographer!

With Lauren, we felt like we not only got a terrific photographer, but a friend as well. She is so personable and easy to talk to. She truly cares about her clients wishes. During our wedding, I recall several times, saying to myself, did Lauren leave? Only to later see that she had captured the exact moments that thought had crossed my mind, in her photos. Somehow, Lauren manages to be everywhere and nowhere at the same time; she is like a superhero. Additionally, Lauren continued to surprise us with things we didn't even realize were included in our photography package. Besides a surprise engagement session, we got things like proof books with all 400 plus wedding photos, a large size print of our choice, and for Christmas she even sent us a personalized ornament with a wedding photo on the back. Lauren is a wonderful photographer, and an amazing, and generous person. We were so lucky to find her.

Lauren Mann is fabulous!!!! I could not have been happier with her throughout the whole wedding process, from engagement, to bridal portaits, to the wedding day! She captured the love, fun and excitement of the wedding day and helped us stay on schedule. Not only was she a wonderful photographer, she helped with everything! When my bussle broke, she was the first one there to help fix it. She kept the whole wedding party calm and happy. My bridesmaids are already asking to book Lauren for their weddings! Lauren's books are beautiful and they tell out love story beautifully! I couldn't have asked for a better photographer!!I will recommend Lauren to everyone! Thanks!!

We were incredibly fortunate to have Lauren Mann capture our wedding day! She was the first vendor that my fiancé, Max, and I booked once engaged and hiring her was one of the best decisions we made throughout the planning process. It is hard to decide which is more noteworthy, Lauren’s extreme talent or her warm and lovely personality. To start, her photographic creativity and skill is unfailing. Her style is clean, fresh and timeless. Every one of the hundreds of photos Lauren took at our wedding draws emotion from its subject. It was hard to choose our favorites of the wedding album because we love so many of the photos. Now, looking back at the album, I can relive the best day of my life. We have such wonderful memories of our big day because of her beautiful work.

I am sure taking such fine pictures is hard work, but Lauren makes it seem effortless. She puts everyone at ease as she works, making it a relaxing and fun experience. Her organization and flexibility allow her to work well in any environment. Most of our wedding party and family members went out of their way to tell us how much they enjoyed working with Lauren. She is so positive, professional and she clearly loves what she does. She certainly delivers her best on your wedding day, and you will find that same level of professionalism and promptness working with her before and after the event. Lauren is a wonderful person and when you work with her, you become her close friend. She is a first class photographer and a first class lady! You will thank yourself for choosing Lauren Mann Photography!

As mother of the bride at a recent wedding in the North Carolina mountains, I can't say enough good things about Lauren Mann Photography. Lauren was totally tuned into the wishes of the bride and groom from the beginning, creating a memorable set of engagement pictures and continuing through the big day. Our wedding site presented a few challenges -- Lauren and Cade simply followed through quietly and professionally, observing any special requests with a smile and making everyone totally at ease, all the while capturing the beauty and emotion of the day. I'm not sure if I like the posed photographs or the candid ones better. Lauren is obviously a gifted artist as well as an expert technician. I could not imagine a more meaningful set of photographs for this most important event. Thank you Lauren and Cade!

Lauren was a fantastic find for our wedding! She's extremely talented, calm and professional. When you meet her, it's like you are reconnecting with a long lost friend. She's so easy to work with and has great follow up. We got our pictures just a month after the wedding and she posted some to facebook even quicker than that. Can't recommend her enough.

Not only is Lauren's work truly outstanding, but she is easy-going, friendly and fun, too! With Lauren, you'll get exactly what you want, and then more. She went so far above and beyond our expectations to include extra journalism style pictures, great little detail pictures, and very creative portrait shots. She captured the mood of every moment of the wedding experience, from laughs to romance. We'll treasure her pictures for the rest of our lives. Thank you, Lauren.

Lauren Mann’s incredible talent is only matched by her lovable personality and passion for photography. She is knowledgeable, thorough, creative, and always willing to try new ideas! It is also reassuring that her follow through is most dependable. Having Lauren take pictures at our wedding felt like we had invited another friend to celebrate with us. She is an absolute pleasure to work with and captures treasured moments beautifully.

Lauren is not only a great photographer, but an asset to the entire wedding planning process. She was full of helpful information, plus she was a sympathetic ear when any difficulties arose (as they do). On the wedding day, Lauren was a wonderful presence, smoothing out any anxieties, becoming fast friends with everyone, all while capturing my happiest moments. She was like another member of the wedding party and I’m thrilled she was there to share the day with me.

What can we say about Lauren? Lauren is very passionate about her craft and it shows through her work. She is just plain awesome! Besides the obvious, which is great photography work, I think some people tend to overlook a VERY important detail about selecting a photographer. That's a great personality and one that makes you feel comfortable during your shoot or on your wedding day. Without this connection, we feel that the pictures may lack in some aspects. We felt very comfortable with Lauren and couldn't have asked for a better value, pictures, and overall experience. We will recommend Lauren to everyone that we know! Thanks Lauren!

Lauren was wonderful and took beautiful pictures! She was very helpful and responded very quickly to our emails. She is also fun to be around!

Thank you Lauren for the true talent of capturing the moment! The beauty of the day will always remain through your pictures. Lauren Mann was wonderful to work with. She was fast, professional, and creative. What more could you ask for!

I absolutely loved working with Lauren Mann! Her pictures are stunning, and she has the gift of being able to capture people's emotions in the moment. On the day of the wedding, she came early to get pictures of the girls getting ready, and she was so helpful throughout the day - she fixed my hair, put in my veil, drove one of my bridesmaids and me to the ceremony site after taking pictures, and bustled my dress for me after everyone had gone downstairs to the reception. She was professional and unobtrusive the whole time. She really bent over backwards for me - I cannot recommend her enough!

"Lauren made the planning of, and our wedding day so smooth. We are so pleased with the way the pictures came out, I couldn't have asked for a better photographer!"

Working with Lauren during the year of our wedding from engagement photos, through our rehearsal dinner, wedding, and album creation was such a pleasant and enjoyable experience. From our first meeting through our last album edit, I felt Lauren took a true and genuine interest in capturing our event perfectly and was completely in-sink with the image we were looking for. Lauren’s bright personality, warmth, and skilled eye for classy and fun photography made our experience entertaining and relaxing, and it shows in each photo. Lauren did an amazing job of making us feel comfortable throughout our time working with her. In Lauren we found a friend we look forward to working with for all our future milestones and would personally recommend her to our family and friends. We could not be happier with the wide range of photos from the small details of our day, candids, formal photos, and smiling family and friends. There is nothing better than being able to relive our wedding day each time we look though our photos!

Sincerely, Michael & Lyndsey

Lauren was the photographer for my older sister's wedding and I wanted her to photograph my wedding as well! She is so much fun and makes everyone feel so comfortable. She is absolutely wonderful and I would highly recommend her to anyone!

I loved having Lauren as our wedding photographer from start to finish! Lauren knew before the wedding exactly what type of pictures we wanted and she delivered on our wedding day. My bridal portrait session with Lauren was a blast from start to finish and she made me feel at ease. On our wedding day Lauren was amazing capturing all of our moments. I love Lauren's creative eye and our wedding album was fantastic! I would use Lauren Mann again in a heartbeat.

Lauren was an incredible photographer! I've never felt so immediately at ease having my picture taken...she's fun, professional, and captures the most amazing pictures. From day one, she made us feel completely at ease and worry free about the photography for our wedding. Although she was already booked with another project the weekend/day of our wedding, she went above and beyond to accommodate us. The results were amazing! We got our photos back so quickly and enjoyed all of them. I could not have asked for a better experience...I will enjoy using Lauren for all of life's events that I want to have captured in photos!

My wife and I were engaged in October 2009 and married in Chapel Hill only five short months later. This, combined with our busy professional lives in Washington, DC, made wedding planning a little challenging! Enter the photographer rock star, Lauren Mann.

She took an authentic interest in us as a couple (not just clients), answered our every question, and was a joy to work with from start to finish. (She even laughed at my jokes.) And the photographs…gorgeous. Lauren captured the overwhelming joy of our engagement and wedding day perfectly. Thank you, Lauren.

Lauren's passion for photography, creativity and organization is what differentiates her from everyone else that we worked with during our wedding. She was able to capture all of the most memorable and important moments of our wedding weekend without being intrusive or demanding. The value that Lauren offers in her wedding packages is unmatched for the quality and service she provides. We experienced all of Lauren's wedding offerings (including the engagement session, bridal portraits, rehearsal dinner, wedding day and albums) and everything that Lauren did for us was so impressive. Lauren's photography will continue to grace our home for years to come. We recommend Lauren Mann Photography without reservation.

Lauren is the best! She works with you from the beginning starting with a budget and building a package that is perfect and tailored to your wants and needs. I will recommend (and have!) her to anyone looking for a photographer to capture life's moments, she will always be my first choice photographer. Thanks again Lauren!

Lauren is awesome! I have gotten so many compliments off of my wedding pictures and the creativeness of the poses. They were so natural. I will be using her for all of my photographer needs throughout....maternity...familly...everything!!!

I absolutely love having Lauren do our photos!! She has captured very special moments. From my husband and my engagement photo's to our daughters 6 month photo's, she has been there for it all! I could not have asked for a better person or photographer to share these precious memories!

Hadley King Photography is 2 wonderful ladies that do photography when they aren't taking care of their kiddies and they are very good at what they do! Their style is photojournalistic which I love and their pricing is so reasonable. Whenever I was looking for photographers I was so discouraged when I would get the quote and it said $8,000 dollars! I thought, "Well I guess i'm not having a photographer at my wedding!" And then I found Shannon and Lauren. They were so fun to work with and always listened to my requests and asked what I wanted from their photography. Their packages were so wonderfully priced and they can customize the packages to fit anyone's needs. I would recommend Hadley King Photography to anyone that is looking for talented wedding photographers with reasonable pricing and who are easy and fun to work with!

Lauren and I worked together to marry and photograph both the Vietnamese and Western weddings of Nam and Abby. Lauren was amazing, capturing all the nuance of each ceremony - even though the Western ceremony was without electricity due to tornadoes in the area which had downed power lines in Raleigh. I so appreciated Lauren's calm, ability to help everyone be at ease, her grace under pressure and her photographic eye and style which created fabulous pictures. I know the couple was delighted. Their thank you note was a photograph from their reception with room for a personal note below. I'd love to work with Lauren as often as possible and recommend her highly to any couple.

Lauren is a wonderful photographer and goes above and beyond to make her clients happy and relaxed!

Lauren's creativity and professionalism make her any bride's dream to work with. Her photography will highlight any and every aspect you desire from your wedding, plus photos you didn't even know you wanted. You will have the perfect way to remember your special day forever.

I think Lauren's work is top-notch! She is really easy-going yet has an amazing attention to detail. I will continue to recommend Lauren!
