Hi, I’m Lauren

I'm the creator behind Fox & Pines, a travel and adventure account based in Washington. After relocating from Ohio over five years ago, I developed a deep passion for the outdoors and photography. My husband and I quickly became avid hikers, spending nearly every weekend exploring the stunning trails Washington has to offer. With each adventure, I found myself capturing countless photos and eager to share them on social media and through this blog.

Three years ago, I turned my dream into reality by leaving my 9-to-5 job to focus on Fox & Pines and content creation full-time. Now, I collaborate with brands and tourism boards to create engaging content—an absolute dream come true. The name "Fox & Pines" is inspired by our dog, Kota, who resembles a fox (though he's a bit camera shy), and our home state, known for its majestic evergreen trees.

Thank you for joining me on this journey and supporting my adventures. Your support means the world to me. Happy trails!
