My story - A wedding and lifestyle photographer based in the North East of England. I was located in Dubai for 4 years working as a lifestyle photographer which was an adventure, but ultimately I was wedding dreaming and made the move back to the North East of UK to become a full time wedding photographer. Now with many years of experience following my passion I have played a huge part in many weddings of all shapes and sizes. Each unique, all perfection and have been fortunate to have a job that takes me around the world.
The first wedding I shot was for a friend in Montana, USA. The scenery was out of this world and the whole experience was incredible CHECK IT OUT - this lead me to fall in love with wedding photography. Whether your venue is close to home or you’ve chosen an exotic destination, I would love to be part of your day and capture your memories.
How I work on your day - As a documentary-style wedding photographer I aim to capture natural, authentic and intimate moments of your day. I like to blend into the background and capture the day with my relaxed approach and depict real emotions. Weddings are filled with laughter, embracing, dancing and I want to capture it all. I love to work with natural light and use my creativity to achieve my signature style.
Each wedding is as individual as the couple and I would love to get to know you so I can document your day exactly how you’ve always imagined it. With over 10 years of experience, this allows me to ensure you are comfortable in front of the camera and a huge part of my approach is to put you at ease on the most memorable day of your life.

“We couldn’t recommend Lauren Braithwaite Photography any more highly. We’d seen her photos on Instagram and loved her natural style so we knew we wanted her to photograph our wedding. We had a pre-shoot with Lauren and were instantly at put at ease by her comfortable approach. On our wedding day, Lauren made us and all our guests feel relaxed. I admired the way that she was everywhere but also invisible at the same time. She captured our day perfectly, capturing those intimate moments that tell the story of the day so beautifully. The pictures are beyond what we could have imagined or hoped for and take us right back to each and every moment of the day.” ~ Hannah + Natalie
“We loved her style and knew that we wanted her to capture the memories that we will cherish for a lifetime. We met with Lauren for a pre-wedding shoot. Some people just have a skill in making you feel at ease, and Lauren is one of these people. Instantly we felt comfortable in front of the camera, as though we had known her our entire lives.”

She was everything I expected and more.
From the wedding pre-shoot to the big day she was friendly, professional and passionate about photography.
If you want professionalism and creativity. Lauren should be your photographer. She has an eye for lighting levels which will give you lovely posed and natural shots.
Thanks so much Lauren”
