Lauren Phillips of Love Her Wild Photography built her business on survival. Young, sleeping on friends’ couches, cleaning toilets, and needing to support her daughter, she created a Go Fund Me page to buy her first camera. Fast forward seven years and she’s at the helm of an incredibly successful business, with clients who fly her all over the world for her signature brand of vintage vulnerability. In turn, she creates the kind of work that is a perfect antidote to the airbrushed perfection we often see on our feeds these days - a treasure trove of moments where everybody can see their life reflected back to them in the most beautifully imperfect way. In this episode, Lauren talks to us about the importance of breaking the rules, taking photos for yourself, and how all of the wonderful and difficult moments of her life bring her closer to her clients.
