My friend Heidi is moving to Utah.
As happy as I am for her...I will miss her face.
So I had the brilliant idea of staging a hott photo shoot.
You know...since I have had soooooo many photography classes and stuff.
NOT.
I just pretend I know how to take pictures.
Anyway...since we are totallyawesome lamespice, here we are, commemorating our friendship in a cool-style way :)
Pick your favorite!

You did a great job- and I am partial to 4 after a quick glance through
I love Heidi and I love your photography work, but since I'm the Mama Face and stuff, my favorites are of YOU! :)
#1, #4, and #10
These are gorgeous, Lauren! You should be proud :) Sucks that your friend is moving, I know how you feel; My Bestie Laura moved back to England at the beginning of the year. And since I'm in Oz that's a pretty big distance!
Wow! Great photo shoot! I love how Heidi's outfit totally matches your blog background . . .
My favourite pic is #6 . . . lovely! :)
Numba 2 is my fav! Don't you just love photo shoots?!
You know how I feel about that hat.
And how I've already hired you to shoot my publicity shots for my book tour.
Ahem.
From someone who has taken photography classes, I pick #2. :) The light and shadow are great in that picture. It looks like an album cover or something.
I'm still insanely jealous of your hair, by the way. Want to trade?
1, 9, 11, 13, 17
I can't just pick one.... those are all my favorites. =X
What camera do you use? I am looking to get myself a camera and asking everyone with pretty pictures what they use! It would be a great help.
I like 9, 12, and 16. You really do take great pictures. What kind of camera?
These are so good! For some reason, I'm just in love with 11 and 13 - they would be so cute paired together. And in a way, only you would understand the special meaning behind them. Very cute!
4, 9, 10, & 20. Good job! How did you get the great color and lighting? I look forward to seeing more of your hidden talent!
#2- but they're all amazing.
you're hotspice
oh today let's discuss your 'natural hair' techniques these days.
oh wait.. we can't b/c your work is lamespice
(crying)
Hey great job on these pictures!
You 5. Her 14.
Cute!
So you can add Photography to your list of "natural talents" eh?
So sad.. I guess you just need to come and visit Utah huh?
My fav's.. #1, 4, 7 and 9
I love that you did this together!
Fun and so cute!!
.... And yess.... your hair is babealicious!
I like 8 and 14 as a matching pair. But they're all great!
Wow, how can you pick? I love all these! I really like #1 and #9. Good Job!! :)
I just did a post like this!
It was for my one year old.. and he's not moving away, just growin up way TOO fast!
I love 4, 9 and 10!
But they're all great :)
Hey these are really good! I want to take a photography class...if I ever have free time again haha. I love 2 (the location is really artsy), 5, 6 (I like the kind of candid way these look), and 9 a lot but the whole batch is really creative.
Great idea for commemorating the friendship--and it looks like a really fun weekend!
What a talented girlie you are....they are all great, Really! I think 15 and 4 are my fave's. What kind of camera do you have?
It's so hard to not live close to your BFF, believe me I know. I'd be lost without my computer and a free long distance plan. It doesn't stop me from wishing Ann Marie lived right next door, but it helps!
Friends are the best and your hair is gor-ge-ous!
They're fabulous! I love the backgrounds you chose and your hat is to die for!
We're bringing sexy back.
I love #8! I like the hat so much!
13!!! it rocks.. the color is brilliant. Um, im shelby lou's friend by the way. haha
Heidi - we are so legit.
Lauren your photography skills are *AMAZING*! I think #2 is my favourite. Do you have one of those amazing, expensive, posh cameras or are you just amazing? Maybe you should post a photography tutorial for us all sometime...would pocket Edward be up for helping you?
1, 9, 17 and 20 ;)
those are awesome, Lauren!! I love 12! little Jazz step. And 9 is dang cute of your friend. so my favorites: 2, 9, and 12!
Oooh, I likes them all. You are truly one attractive little devil. Also, where the heck did you get your shirt? Because I need one just like it really soon. And also your shoes? Adorable.
Melissa.my.love.that.is.also.my.cute.twin - I only shop at The Forever 21. If I am not home, that is where you would find me. :) Also..the shoes are from Target. My other love.
Did I mention the shirt was only 12 bones? Because it is.
I think number 12 is my favorite. Great pictures. You guys have talent.
#9 of her and #1 of you.
How did you edit these? I LOVE them. Will you move it Utah with her and take my pictures? That would be great.
Are you for hire? Wedding coming up you know.
You are both beautiful. I love the sass. Love it. (sings in high pitched voice)
Give Heidi my info and tell her to look me up. I love lunch dates. Any friend of yours is okay by me :)
numbers 7 and 10 should be printed and framed! :D great work lady!!!
I like 6 & you look great in 8!
i like 8 and 13 best.
You are ridiculous!! These are great! How are you so good at everything!?
I love #4 & #7... you girls seem to be the cutest friends!
Wanna hear a secret???
There is a 99% I'll be living back in Mesa by next month :)
I like number 2 of you and number 6 of her! That looks like fun! The pictures turned out way cool!
my favorite is definitely #5 yep. pretty much you look amazing.
oh PS, please tell me where you took these. thanks ;>
loooove them! #2 is my fave. I like the perspective, but really they're all great! I want to take pictures like that! *sob*
They are all awesome! I love #2. What kind of camera did you use?
What a super fun way to say "I love you and You're my friend!" Great pictures - I cannot pick I love them all!
I like them all but 1 & 2 are my fav at first glance. You are so dang cute & I'm loving the hair & outfit esp the hat! Where did you guys take these?

RatalieNose
Great photo shoot. Industrial chic. Love it.
Can't choose a favorite!
i Love acting like I'm a photographer.
here is my favorite, 1,9,17,20!!!
I love this because Heidi is sporting Warrior colors...Fablushness!
11 & 18 are my faves! But they are ALL super fun times.
7, I love the colors.
#2 and #9. How fun, great background so much personality
I vote on 9. 17. and 20.
Nice pictures!
Great Shots! I like #7 and #8
Way cute pictures!
Eh...I really liked the first one!
Supah cute!
# 7 wins my heart.
you got skillz.
Your friend Heidi is a doll! I know she will enjoy Utah, I grew up there and it is wonderful place to live! I love all of the pictures, you are a natural photographer/Model, who knew!
Oh Yeah, my favorites are definately 9 and Heidi is so great in 10!
these pictues look great! I really do like 9. I also like 13 and 17 a lot!
you are one talented chica!! what do you edit your photos with?
For people that wanted to know, I use a Canon Powershot Elph 8.1 Megapixels. It is amazing. Best purchase I have ever made. Even if the purchase was with wedding gift money. That's besides the point. What I am saying is...I would sell some of my valuables if I ever needed to buy another. Valuables meaning, I would sell Ted.
The End.
PS...all of these photos were taken on the backstreets of Main Street in Mesa.
I like #9 the best. You can see Heidi's face straight on and she looks so happy and radiant. The last time I saw her was three years ago. She was cute then, but now...she is absolutely beautiful!!
Good luck in Utah!
You guys are so adorable! And as for the actual photography, you should def go pro! Lol
ps. i think in # 16 you are saying, "come hither, Edward (*cough*) i mean Ted..."
I love all the colors in the pictures.
I think my favorite is....2. I like the photo editing you did with it. Do you use Picnik?
SUPERfun. I'm not voting since I don't know if I'm supposed to vote on where you gals look the best or where I like the photography the best.
lauren, these are STUNNING! every single one, my breathing stopped a few times, BELIEVE ME!
#2 all time favorite, so original.
I like them all!
#4 FTW
Very cute.
so cute! #1 love it!
I'm feeling so sad for you both that Heidi is moving. I love the pictures from your photo shoot. I had a hard time picking my favorite, but I keep going back to #1 (for you) and I really like #7 for Heidi.
I LOVE these pictures! #2 would have to be my favorite, but they are all really great. How did you get the shadowing around the edges?
Ooo they are all stunning! I think 10 is my favorite though-I love the bright yellow and the twisted angle. It pops! You're so talented! Stinks your friend is moving =/
they all are so dang cute!
where did you go take these at?
I love them all!!
Love the urban feel of them!!
Can't choose a fav... they all ROCK!!
I love 10! This is a great idea! You are fantastic!
sad that you friend is moving to UT. but love these pics you guys took of each other! especially 13, 18 and 20. nice job!
Not gonna lie I'm digging 20. Not because your face isn't lovely because trust me, it is. Looks like it's a clothing mag picture. indeed.
I love number 2!
It looks like something you'd see in a magazine!
:)
Srsly. Cute pictures! I live in UT and love it! My lil sis lives in Gilbert. Crazy stuff.
