Sharing the innate beauty of what’s timeless and true


Lauren Brown Photography was established in 2003. Since then, Lauren has photographed people, landscapes, lifestyles, and artistic elements across the US and 17 different countries. She captures fleeting moments, creative portraits, and treasured details with a visionary style and graceful expression. Lauren's expertise in composition, light, and equipment and her Montana sensibilities allow her to roll with the dynamic nature of shooting in unpredictable outdoor settings, confidently and creatively making the most of each minute of the shoot. Her work is gorgeously relevant and modern while retaining an enduring quality that ages like fine wine.

Lauren is known for her warmth, professionalism, and expertise — behind the camera, at an event, and throughout the editing process. Her intuitive artistry is grounded in a wealth of true expertise, having shot hundreds of weddings, events, brand shoots, and portrait sessions. Her lens is magnetically drawn to what's honest, lovely, and maybe a little bit magic. Her approach values connection. She works to form a true understanding of how her clients see their world and what matters to them the most — and then, she brings that essence to life through photos. 

Lauren Brown's transcendent photography captures the iconic and bold, as well as the exquisitely subtle. Her images tell stories of emotions and vistas, moments and meaning — whatever the story or setting. Whether she's highlighting genuine expressions of love and family joy, the individual textures and details of a lifestyle or product shoot, or the complex uniqueness of an outdoor setting, her photos are a reflection of her personality — genuinely down-to-earth, yet timelessly, classically stylish.


Meet Lauren

Warmth, style, and a genuine smile

"As a fourth-generation Montanan, and the child of artists and entrepreneurs, photography as a career has always been a natural fit. It feels like the stories of weddings, brands, and families come to life vividly against the backdrop of our big skies, dramatic mountains, and peaceful rivers. Documenting people, relationships, and authentic interactions is simply what I love to do. I'm passionate about getting to know what matters to you the most, and expressing those real stories through beautiful photographs that'll last a lifetime. And whether you're typically confident in front of the lens, or a little bit camera shy, I promise we'll capture a side of you that you'll love, and have fun along the way!" — Lauren Brown, Bozeman, Montana Photographer
