Can we talk about how fierce and amazing Lauren looks!? Lauren and I had worked together in the past at the start of her modeling career (remember the beautiful bridal and ballroom dancing sessions in Columbus?), so when she reached out to me about working together again, I was excited! I had so many ideas going through my head, but I knew I wanted it to be completely different from the time before.

We started out at Rustbelt Coffee in downtown Toledo. I had seen photos of this coffee shop, but had never been inside. We were instantly amazed! I mean, what other coffee shop has a swing inside!? Then we headed to one of my favorite spots in Toledo. The back side of an old factory is open and right across the street from a park. The grunge was perfect for the feel we were going for! Now a shoot in Toledo would not be complete without a trip to the art museum, right? So that was our last stop!

Check out some of my favorite photos from Lauren’s session in Toledo!
