I am Lauren Ashley Grenda, the heart behind the camera, and my path to capturing your most cherished memories is intertwined with my own deeply personal story.
My journey into the world of wedding photography began not out of ambition, but from a heartfelt necessity. I was seeking a meaningful career that allowed me the flexibility to care for my son Noah, who has autism, while also embracing my creative spirit.

behind the lens
“If you don't think photos are important, wait until they're all you have left.”
...But it wasn't until the devastating loss of my partner, Ryan in 2020 that the true power of photography revealed itself to me. Suddenly, photographs weren't just images, they were lifelines, preserving memories and emotions that time threatened to erase.

Mallory loves what she does, finding joy in capturing memories on one of a couple's most special days. Her approach goes beyond taking photos—she’s focused on telling each love story through her lens. Often found on the dance floor, she blends into the fun to capture candid, joyful moments. When not behind the camera, she enjoys unwinding at home with her sweet pup, Cooper, and a bowl of pistachio ice cream.
