Lavinia + Louise Co.

Oh hey! It's me - Britney Walters-Chester. I’m a photographer and videographer now based out of Effingham, Illinois, after moving back home at the start of 2021. Lavinia + Louise was started between two friends in Ames, Iowa in 2018 - Lydia and Britney (the dynamic duo!). We were two friends who bonded over our love of rock climbing, jumping around at concerts, bashing on every season of The Bachelor (we secretly love it, and we know you do too), investing too much mental energy into board games, and watching videos of puppies try to walk upstairs for the first time.

My favorite things include baking, spending time with my family, going to as many concerts as possible, and exploring the country (and eventually the world)! My husband and I travel all over to rock climb, hike, and have adventures. We also visit our families as often as we can! Being active is a must for me, so I’m always rock climbing, biking, or running with my dog, Val! (I’ve run 9 half-marathons and one full) I’m really passionate about music, and my current obsessions are KC & The Sunshine Band, Queen, and Elton John.
