Since the day I've found Lauren's Flickr she has not stopped inspiring me. She has a way of capturing the most perfect moments in life: the in-betweens. The moments that are so often overlooked and unnoticed, Lauren manages to capture with originality and honesty. She has definitely contributed to my growth as a photographer, and continues to inspire me with her images.

Every photograph she posts has the most vibrantly beautiful colors and flawless skintones. I haven't the slightest clue how she does it but I am forever amazed!

I think Lauren Marek is rad, and so is her expression through photography. I think there is an open door for her to get into many different types of photography and I hope she continues to walk through and experience these doors [that are open ;)] I'm stoked that flickr exists and connects people and inspires artist… Read more

I think Lauren Marek is rad, and so is her expression through photography. I think there is an open door for her to get into many different types of photography and I hope she continues to walk through and experience these doors [that are open ;)] I'm stoked that flickr exists and connects people and inspires artists visually. Glad to have "run into" Lauren via the internets. Keep shooting and sharing. :]

I have never written a testimonial before, but I totally think you deserve one. Your photos aren't just pictures, they are a reflection of emotions. In each and every one of them I find love and friendship. You capture life in a way I am trying to for a long, long time. Also you can put something from yourself in yo… Read more

I have never written a testimonial before, but I totally think you deserve one. Your photos aren't just pictures, they are a reflection of emotions. In each and every one of them I find love and friendship. You capture life in a way I am trying to for a long, long time. Also you can put something from yourself in your photos, and that's very hard to do. Keep on going like this, you're such an inspiration for me! Sarah

Well, I've finally got around to writing a testimonial for you! You really deserve all the compliments and publicity you get because you really are amazing. You are one of my inspirations, right up there with Jim Henson and The Beatles. Whenever I get into photographer's block I always think to myself "What would La… Read more

Well, I've finally got around to writing a testimonial for you! You really deserve all the compliments and publicity you get because you really are amazing. You are one of my inspirations, right up there with Jim Henson and The Beatles. Whenever I get into photographer's block I always think to myself "What would Lauren do? (WWLD)" and I think you would just capture your life and everything around you. I've been following you for about a year now and I feel as though I know Mary, Stephanie, John, and of course, you! I'm always blown away with what you can do with a camera and I brag about you to all of my friends like you are my kid or something. So what I'm trying to say is God bless you, Lauren Marek. I'm so thankful that you picked up a camera and touched so many people's hearts. Keep doing what you do and you'll go places. With Love, Davis Gavitt. :]

Every one of them makes me feel like I am really there. Only amazing photographers can master that. Your ideas are so incredible that it makes me want to see how your brain works.
