MEET LAUREN

Hi! My name is Lauren Del Bene, LDB for short. My last name is Italian, and not only is it uncommon, but it’s actually two words and a little hard to pronounce so growing up I had a bunch of different nicknames, but my favorite is simply my initials, LDB.

Photography was something I got into when I was in high school and has been a passion of mine that has developed over the last 15 years. Capturing people in their most natural state is my favorite thing about photography.

My dog, Virginia, is my world. I am a huge animal rescue advocate and work part-time at a local animal shelter. I rescued my sweet girl in 2020 and we have been inseparable ever since. You know when you meet someone and you just click? That was us! We hike a ton and she is an awesome partner to scout photoshoot locations with!
