The Art of FAMILY Portraiture
Family portraits are more than photographs. They are a record of who you are together in this season of life. In the fields, parks, and outdoor spaces of Bryan and College Station, we create images that highlight the connection and personality of your family. At Lauren Melissari & Sarah Burns Photography, every session is guided with care, creativity, and an eye for the story that unfolds naturally between you.

SO TALENTED!
Lauren and Sarah have been photographing my family for the past 8 years. They have captured our moments from engagement, wedding, elderly dogs, to the progression of our daughter from birth on. Most recently they captured the love shared between friends of 20 years. I couldn’t recommend them enough. They are both lovely to work with, and will help bring out the love and soul of whoever/whatever they’re photographing.

I love my job so much, the babies are always different, the families are always different and it`s just so fun to meet so many people starting their parenting journey! <3 This is Milo, he has double dimples (I`ve never photographed that before) and a blaze of white in his hair (I photograph that rarely).
Whew! Who else is having a busy summer doing very little? 😅 (Except hanging out with my favorite group of tiny humans). I`m a bit behind in posting all sorts of shoots so bear with me as I get a bit caught up! This is Gunner! I loved his fuzzy hair <3
Theo MASTERS his first year! Scroll to the end for some newborn pictures of him last year!
Miss Mackenzie! This family makes the most perfect babies! The big siblings are 2 and 1 and did a great job of being in photos with their newest playmate <3
Eloise reminded me of a tiny wren with her delicate features and huge eyes. Such an adorable baby!
