A girl, a camera, and her best friend Luna

Hi, I’m Lauren, and this is Luna—my golden retriever, adventure buddy, and best friend. Together we wander farmers’ markets, chase waves at the beach, and find the coziest dog-friendly cafes. With my camera in hand and Luna by my side, we’re capturing the little moments that make every journey special—one pawprint, one photo, one memory at a time.

Hello world!

About Lauren, Luna, and Our Adventures

The Leash & Lens was born from my love of travel, photography, and the simple joy of sharing it all with Luna, my golden retriever. Whether we’re exploring hidden gems in our hometown or setting off on bigger adventures, I’m passionate about finding places where dogs are welcome and moments worth capturing. This space is a collection of our favorite discoveries—filled with wagging tails, cozy cafés, beach strolls, and the little things that make life beautiful. Follow Our Pawprints
