I cannot express how amazing my photoshoot yesterday made me feel. It was something that I had been dreaming about for a long time but couldn't afford. I went in feeling so nervous but Tarsha, Lauren and the whole team made me feel so comfortable and empowered. I had a very hard year last year and it left me with visible scars, seeing the photos nearly brought me to tears. They were so accommodating, allowing me to bring my motorbike inside. 100% worth it. Something I would love to do again.

I love seeing the transformation in people, not only visually - but emotionally as well. I'm a sucker for a good before and after! I'm originally from a farm in rural NSW, but now the Coast has my heart! I love all things creative and design - and have a background in graphic design and hair and makeup. I have 2 pugs Bitty & Reggie.
I love a good coffee, sunflowers, overalls, scrunchies but most of all creativity. For me this means expressing yourself whether its through ink on your skin, paint on your face, the way you chose to dress or the words you chose speak.
My background consists of eight years of hair styling experience & four years of Makeup knowledge where I hold two separate Diplomas in this Industry alongside this came countless hours with copious amounts of coffee of course.
I'm blessed to be a part of an amazing environment at Studio Republic, where I'm lucky enough to wake up and play dress up's every day. literally living my child hood dream. Among this I’m frequently absorbing knowledge from other artists and keeping up to date in my industry to meet new trends as well mastering old fashion techniques too.
My favourite moment of the styling service we provide is the little smirk after the transformation process whether small or large there is something amazing about making someone feel a million bucks!
Heya! I'm Lauren
''Making people feel beautiful and look amazing is the best part of what I do!''
I have been a Professional Photographer for over 10 years now and part of our SR team for over 9 years.
Creating and styling an amazing shoot is just the most exciting thing (I REALLY get into it) nothing is too weird to me! Some of my favourite things in a shoot are … Wigs, colour, glitter, crazy shoes, OTT jackets, big hair, crazy make-up ... Every Image is a work of art and when I'm in the zone feeling the vibes I am in my element!
I get to know new people everyday and the most rewarding part is seeing their reaction to their Images and hearing ''WOW You captured me perfectly!''
