Storytelling
For Lauren, process is just as important as the product. She loves a deep dive into the details and is adept at oscillating through multiple depths and perspectives to identify and synthesize themes. An inherent dot connector, Lauren works closely with organizations, and individuals, to demystify design and communication processes, identifying where they have come from, where they are, and where they want to be. She then transforms this information into engaging narratives that are approachable, accessible, and poignant.
Lauren’s storytelling approach is guided by the formula: Principles + Process = Product.
Photography
Visual imagery is an integral part of Lauren’s storytelling process. Leveraging her formal training as a photographer and as an architect, she ensures that all visuals will best support your narratives and celebrate your designs. Whether it be photographs that she composes, photoshoots that she directs, photographs that she retouches, or collections of photographs that she curates, all imagery will work in harmony with accompanying text and graphics to communicate your vision.
