my approach


TIMELESS,HEARTFELT, artistic IMAGEry WITH AN EFFORTLESSLY EDITORIAL TWIST


My style blends the authenticity of reportage with the elegance of editorial portraiture, capturing genuine, beautiful moments while guiding you into natural, flattering movements.

With over 12 years of wedding photography experience, I focus on creating images that stand the test of time by capturing true connections and emotions. Your wedding day should feel like a celebration, not a photoshoot, so I aim to make the process relaxed, fun, and unforgettable.

“ Lindsay was an absolute DREAM to work with for my wedding day. I was definitely a type-A over planner and I had a very specific vision for how the day would go. Lindsay captured the day PERFECTLY and on top of that, she was an absolute joy to be around. I loved how easy going and open minded she was. If you're looking for a photographer for any event in your life, Lindsay is your girl! ”
