ABOUT ME

Hi, I’m Laura! I am the owner and photographer at Lou Lou Childs.

I have been taking portraits for over 20 years, including headshots for the film and television industry way back in the day. I absolutely love faces, capturing moments and most of all, making those around me feel comfortable in front of the camera…as I know it can be daunting for some!

I have been described by my peers as a bubbly gal with a ridiculous amount of energy. "An unpoppable bubble", which is probs my fave description of me EVER, and pretty accurate as well! ⁠
⁠
I am a Canadian expat who is a little bit obsessed with people and the story they want to tell. It sounds cliche (who cares!), but I LOVE, humans, human interaction and know that everyone brings something a little bit different to the table. My photography approach is fun, relaxed and full of laughs plus me telling you how amazing you are. I am an absolute hype-girl and proud of it.⁠
⁠
FUN FACTS: ⁠
1) My second love is a good cocktail; so much that I started a lil' side-hustle @julep.cocktails during lockdown. So, if you are ever in need of a good tipple, I've got you covered. 🍸️⁠
⁠
2) I fell into a cactus patch during a wedding once and am now known as the "cactus girl" in the wedding industry. Ask me about this, as I now think it's a funny story. 🌵⁠
⁠
3) I own a 1975 dodge daystar that I plan on converting into a tiny-home one day. It is 1 of 16 ever made in the world, and I dare say, it is an absolute stunner.⁠

Should you want to meet up, have a chinwag about your photography ideas, I am all ears. My aim is to make you feel calm, secure…and excited, so that I can focus on capturing the best version of you.

I truly believe that everyone needs a GREAT photo of themselves that they not only love, and that journey starts now! Can’t wait to meet you.

Laura
