Lauren Ilg Photography Photographer from Denver, NC

Thank you so much for taking the time to visit my webpage. I pour my heart, soul and personality into my sessions and photographs, so I want you to know a little bit about me. I am a born and raised Southern girl, who indulges in diet coke, Bojangles and can always be seen wearing my Carolina Panthers' jersey on Sundays. I am truly blessed and grateful for God surrounding me with a loving family that always supports me. I first picked up a camera to capture moments with the most important people in my life, and that is when I realized how special photographs can be. To really know me, you also need to know a little bit about my loving family. One of the deepest loves I have is the love for my rescue dog, Redford (named after Robert Redford, which is fitting because he's strong, handsome and one of the leading men in my life). He has been there for me through most of my important life changes. He posed for my wedding photos, slept by my daughter when we brought her home from the hospital, and spends every weekend in the garage, keeping my husband company while he works on his truck. My husband is also born and raised in the South, and he definitely gives meaning to the word “Southern Gentleman.” We enjoy spending time together, going out for Mexican food and seeing our friends on the weekends. He is my best friend, my biggest fan and the love of my life. Fourteen months ago, God blessed us with our daughter Lillian. She is a perfect mix of my husband and me – She is smart, kind, sensitive and strong willed. Even as a baby, she knows what she wants and I love that about her. I know she will grow up to be a wonderful, strong leader for her family. In the meantime, I take every opportunity I can to put her in beautiful bows and take thousands of pictures. Her smile and laugh fills my heart with more love than I thought possible. As you can tell, my life is centered around God, my husband, my daughter and my dog. So it's no surprise that my passion for photography also centers around couples, maternity, babies and family (including those fur babies). I think the most beautiful pictures are taken in natural light, with soft images that reflect a person's true inner beauty. As you can also tell, I am a talker and will make sure you feel relaxed and comfortable during your session. I strive to capture natural moments that you and your family will cherish forever. If you are located in Charlotte or the surrounding area, I would love a chance to meet you and capture your special life moments. Thank you for stopping by and I look forward to meeting you soon!
