When it came to planning her senior pictures, Lauren knew she wanted to include both her horse and dog! After all, they have both played a huge part in her life throughout high school.
Lauren is a high school senior who enjoys horseback riding, musical theater, dance, playing the oboe, and marching band. Shortly before her junior year began, Lauren was diagnosed with Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS). This condition made it difficult to do the activities she loves and took a toll on her mental health.
Though diagnosed with POTS, Lauren has persevered and continues to show how having a disability doesn’t need to define who you are. Lauren was recently cast as the lead in her school spring musical. In the fall of 2023, Lauren will be attending SCAD to study film acting.
Lauren, Manny, and Decker were photographed at Le Bonheur Equestrian which is located in Chatsworth, GA.
