Who am I, you ask?
I’m Lindsay!
I believe humans were created to create. Our lives are filled with intimate and playful moments that go by too quickly, and that’s where I feel called to. I desire to create something so beautiful and timeless that my people can reminisce for years to come. There are so many things that will not matter in time, but flipping through your wedding album with your granddaughter or nephew or whoever will never go out of style.
I’ve been photographing weddings for 8 years now, and it all started because I stole my mom’s Canon Rebel back when I had a crush on a baseball player in high school. It’s not as weird as it sounds…they needed yearbook photos. Long ago are the days of yearbook, and now I’m lucky to consider wedding photography my primary gig.

Alllll the emotions here and lots of big decisions to make! That’s why I will be your biggest champion, closest friend, and greatest advocate in this season of planning your wedding and experiencing your most important day.

COUPLES + PORTRAITS
Every stage of your life deserves some love and documentation. Maybe you just graduated college, bought your first home, or added a new member to your family (fur-baby or baby-baby, I don’t judge), nevertheless it’s an occasion that insists on some good story telling. Some of my favorite photographs that I have ever taken come from sessions like these. I like to consider them more of a story session than a traditional photoshoot. I want the photos to communicate the intimate and beautiful things that make your love yours and your life yours! So, let’s go on a date! Let’s get some ice cream and walk the pier, or jump on a boat and take a sail. We could even bake something in your kitchen! These photos will truly be the best when I get to see you guys in your element.
Mini sessions start at $275
Full sessions start at $400
