In anticipation of Valentine’s Day, I’m planning a Women’s Winter Whimsy Spectacular in January! Don’t you love spending time with the girls? I know I do!

January 16th will be the perfect opportunity for you to shed some sunshine on your winter blues, and come away with a really awesome gift for yourself or your significant other for Valentine’s Day! You’ll be pampered with strawberries and chocolate, you’ll work with a makeup artist to make sure you look your best, and you’ll feel liberated and sexy during your private portrait session. When it’s all over, you’ll receive a little red book to remind you that you’re beautiful just the way you are. Lingerie is welcome, but not required. It’s all about what makes you feel good! This is my way of upholding my promise to providing real photography for real people. I can’t wait to see you there! Stay tuned for details . . .
Yes, it’s me! I got to be Little Red Riding Hood this year! What fun! A friend of mine loaned me this super-cool cape for the day, and it was perfect. It kept me warm, and was easy to play the “photographer” role at Candy Zone.
Happy Halloween everyone! I hope your day was a blast! I’d love to see some cute pictures of all your kiddos in costume. Send me an email! lara@laragrauer.com

I am now offering digital hand painting for all portraits! This looks fabulous on canvas, and makes a wonderful focal point for your home! Inquire for details.


These were taken on a gorgeous day just two short weeks ago. We got so lucky with just the perfect amount of cloud cover. The air was a tad bit chilly, but for October, it was pretty awesome. Perhaps you recognize the baby – the new addition I got to photograph over the summer when he was 10 days old. He’s not such a tiny bundle anymore, but he’s still darn cute! And so is his big sister, of course. I’ve been looking forward to photographing this family for a long time, and I’m thrilled that it went so well.






I just finished working on this collage for my brother’s family. I love this collection so much because it really shows what it means to have fun! These images are so full of love and life, it makes me want to go back to Iowa City NOW so I can hang out with these guys again! If you’re looking for ways to brighten your mood, spend some time with this piece. These kids’ passion for living is contagious…
