Hello, I am Lindsay!
In the tapestry of my life, I am a storyteller and a moment-capturer, navigating a world colored by the lens of my experiences. A childhood bicycle accident left me 100% blind in my left eye at the tender age of five, a hurdle that could have dimmed my vision, but instead fueled my passion for photography. Against the odds, I delved into the art, starting with film photography. I fondly remember spending hours upon hours in my college darkroom, not simply developing my film, but experimenting with both different chemical reactions with film development and playing with light as I made my prints. I loved to play around and see what I could create.
While I was always drawn to both photography and the captivating essence of babies, it wasn't until the arrival of my first child in 2008 that the pieces fell into place and I discovered my passion for newborn photography. Immersed in the joy of photographing my own baby, I realized the profound connection between my love for photography and the enchanting world of newborns. From there, my passion took flight, and I specialized in newborn photography, photographing Sarasota area newborns for over a decade, and infusing each frame with the depth of my unique perspective. Along with newborn photography, I also discovered a passion for fiber arts, and not only knitted the majority of the hats and crafted the majority of the newborn headbands I would use in my newborn photo shoots, I also sold hats and headbands to other photographers, making sales all around the world.
Beyond the lens of my professional journey, I am a devoted parent, compelled to creatively capture the every day moments and intricacies of life with my own children. Through self portraits that weave a tapestry of emotions, I honed my craft over the years, transforming personal experiences into visual tales. This dedication to storytelling and artistic expression led me to the esteemed Click Pro community, where my work found resonance among fellow creatives. In my journey, the challenge of visual impairment became a catalyst for a distinct visual language, a testament that art knows no bounds.
After taking a hiatus from client photography to focus on raising my five children (including a set of twins!), I now return with a wealth of experience, a heart full of memories, and a renewed enthusiasm to capture the precious moments of newborns once again, as well as knit the hats and create the headbands I use for their portrait sessions, ensuring a unique and custom experience and look for you and your baby.
Capturing the tender moments of new beginnings and designing a custom session for your baby that you will cherish for a lifetime is my passion. From tiny fingers to sleepy smiles, I strive to capture your newborn's pure moments and create everlasting precious memories. I am honored to be your storyteller, preserving the magic of these beautiful early days with your newborn through the art of newborn photography.
