Lauren Skousen Photography bio picture

WELCOME!

My name is Lauren Skousen. I’m a Southern California based photographer, but am available to travel anywhere! I specialize in on location children, family, senior and lifestyle portraits (I do photograph a select number of weddings each year). I have been happily married to my husband for 5 years. We have a beautiful daughter and son! My love and passion for photography began when I was young. I can remember making a studio in my home and taking pictures of my sisters with my mom’s film camera. After my daughter was born, I decided to further pursue my passion of photography. I enjoy being able to provide beautiful memories for others! I always say that I have the best job...I love what I do!  

If you have any questions regarding my photography services, please email me. I look forward to capturing timeless memories of your life!

San Dimas, CA Childrens Photographer : Matti 2yrs

As the old saying goes, “The shoemaker’s children always go without shoes” that is how Mattison is with photos at this point in time. I have been SO busy with editing sessions and getting things ready before the baby comes, that it took me two months to get my daughter’s 2 year photos taken…pretty pathetic,...

Pumpkin Patch

Just this past weekend, my family and I went to the Cal Poly Pumpkin Patch! Mattison is in love with pumpkins right now, so I thought it would be fun to take her! She really enjoyed it; however, we ended up using the pumpkins as a photo opportunity…we ended up not paying the...

MY Maternity Session

Usually I’m the one behind the camera, but this time it was my turn to have my pictures taken! My family kept asking me when I was going to do my maternity photos, so I figured I better hurry and do it before it’s too late. I knew that I wanted some last...

i love my life!

First, let me preface my day yesterday with this: I was nauseous all day (lovely pregnancy hormones), Mattison woke up an hour and a half earlier than she normally does (I don’t do well without my sleep), she decided to sneak behind the closet door and pee her pants, then she purposely dumped her breakfast...

Glendora, CA Childrens Photographer : 18 months

Yesterday, I finally took Mattison’s 18 month pictures…even though she is 19 months old. I decided to go up Glendora Mountain Road to Big Dalton Canyon Campground. It was beautiful there…it was so green, and the sound of the water rushing down the stream, the wind blowing through the trees, and the sound...

Glendora, CA Childrens Photography : Sneek Peak

Today, I took Mattison’s 18 month pictures, well technically they were her 19 month pictures…better late than never, right?! She woke up happy from her nap, so I figured I better take advantage of it! The darn girl is so stubborn and will not look at the camera for the life of her...

Glendora, CA Children’s Photographer : Playtime!

I would think that after having such an awesome time at WPPI and after being inspired by so many amazing photographers, that I would come home and instantly shoot away! Well, I thought wrong. And it wasn’t until yesterday that I realized that I wasn’t doing the one thing that was emphasized in...

Huntington Beach Family Photographer : The Hunters Part 2

After visiting the LDS LA Temple, we drove to Santa Monica Beach. Since the Hunters had never been to this particular beach, we thought it would be a fun one to visit! It took forever to even get there because the traffic was so bad. Then, as we drove through the slow...

Los Angeles, CA Family Photographer : The Hunters Part 1

My sister-in-law, Jenny, and her little family came to visit this past weekend!  We had a blast!  Carter and Mattison had so much fun together!  Even though they have already gone home, Matti stills walks around the house calling for, “Car-Car” or “Car-er”!
It was more of a low key weekend, but on Valentines...
