It’s good to see you! My name is Lauren VanDerwerken—I’m a cinematographer and photographer currently located in sunny LA.

My favorite approach is to let my work speak for itself, so I’ll keep it short. My approach to filmmaking is that if it turned out technically elite but didn’t capture the emotion of the story, we missed the point. I love the collaboration of filmmaking—it’s so gratifying to do my part to communicate with or move the audience in some way.
