Lauren
Professional A+ photographer who is also a cool person.
Hi, I'm Lauren. I've been a photographer and mentor for the majority of my life. I have informally taught photography to children, youth, and adults alike. I am very active in my community and believe that the cultivation of the arts is necessary for a community to grow and express itself. I would love to be able to support my volunteering efforts by getting paid to do what I love, for those who are able to pay for tutelage. I am highly creative and articulate. I enjoy traveling, music, art, ...

She helped me organize and better understand how Elements 11 works. I am looking forward to my next session with her

I was able to export my photos to the Pictures folder, and create a folder to export from pictures to Lightroom in an organized way. She also explained some of the tools available in the Lightroom Develop mode. Lauren is very knowledgeable, efficient and patient --I'm technology impaired but she was able to help me accomplish what I been trying to accomplish for months ---without success. She is a very nice person and an excellent instructor. I plan to seek her help again in leaning how to use the Develop module.

Lauren was so knowledgeable and patient! It just so happened she was in town for a vacation and made time to meet with me in person! What were the chances?! She came to our session with way more than I was expecting, and I now feel competent in Lightroom. I knew little to nothing before our appointment. I also really like her style of photography, so I really felt like I was in good hands! She is very down to earth and easy to get along with. I cannot recommend her enough!!
Stacy R. from Wilmette, IL
Lauren was so knowledgable, and gave me some great tools. Setting up the meeting was super easy, and I was able to get in her schedule quickly. I will definitely be meeting with her again!

I am a fashion journalism student and taking a graphic design class. The class moves fast and I have no experience with these programs. Lauren has been so helpful. She makes it easy to understand.
Mame H. from Baltimore, MD
Lauren guided me through organizing photos on Lightroom. I need another session with her, since LR seems to have a mind of its own, but I have faith that Lauren will help me figure it all out, and I can be a star student in my photography class!
Melissa W. from Chicago, IL
Lauren was a really excellent tutor. She helped me restore 800 "missing" photos, helped clean up all my image folders, and explained so many useful techniques for Lightroom. I would recommend her to anyone in Chicago (or elsewhere) for a one on one in person or online. She know's her stuff inside and out and is a delight to work with.
