About

Hello! My name is Lauren Lockard (Adams). I am a born and raised Missourian with a passion for photography, social media, arts & crafts, traveling, and food! I married my wonderful husband, Neil, in Missouri in November of 2024, and then we relocated to Arizona. We are also proud dog parents to our golden doodle, Charlie. 

My love for photography and media in general began as a child. My mother always carried around any sort of camera she could get her hands on, always taking photos of my siblings and I. Then, when my parents got a digital camcorder and I received a Nintendo DSI with photo capabilities, my love for the art took off. I received my first amateur camera at the age of 14 and at the age of 17, I began doing freelance wedding videography on my own. At the age of 18, I decided to pursue a degree in Broadcast Production at Northwest Missouri State University. 

After receiving my bachelor's degree in December of 2021, I began a job full-time at the university as a Multimedia Specialist for 2 and 1/2 years in their Marketing and Communications department. I got to capture all things college, such as sports, classes, or events. I also got to post many of the photos and videos to the university's Instagram and Facebook. You can find my work on the university's website, advertisements, alumni magazine, and billboards.

I left the university in the fall of 2024 due to moving out of state for my husband's job. I currently still do some online freelance work photo and video editing. I am also available for hire for any photography, videography, or social media needs in the greater Phoenix area!

I would love to work with you and I am open to working in person, online, or traveling. Let's get in touch! You can reach me through my contact page to learn more.
