Meet the Photographer
Meet Lynse~
Hello and welcome! I’m Lynse, and I’m so glad you’re here.
Photography has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. It started as a joyful way to connect with people and celebrate life’s beautiful moments—and it has grown into my true passion and profession.
Becoming a mom gave me a new perspective and purpose in my work. I quickly realized how fleeting each stage of childhood truly is. I started capturing those moments for my own family, and that desire to hold onto those memories inspired me to help other families do the same.
Since 2010, I’ve been honored to run my own photography business, preserving colorful, energetic, and genuine images for clients across the country. My approach is all about storytelling—capturing raw emotions and authentic connections that make your family’s story unique. It’s incredibly moving to watch clients experience their galleries for the first time and see their own lives reflected in the images.
When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll find me exploring and hiking outdoors, chasing creative shots in nature, or playing with my boys. I’m also a military spouse, which means I get to embrace adventure, travel, and meet wonderful people in many different places.
I’d love the opportunity to get to know you and capture your family’s special moments. Thank you for considering me to be part of your story.

TESTIMONIALS
"We loved our photo shoots (maternity and newborn) with Lynse.
She had a ton of creative ideas and a plethora of props for us to play around with.
Most importantly she knew that newborns are unpredictable and she was 100% prepared for that. So thankful she was our photographer!" ~ Elizabeth
"Lynse has done my family’s photos for a few years. She is great with couples, families, maternity shoots, and kids (newborn and up). I was always blown away by her professionalism, ideas, and, especially, the quality of work. We have since moved from her location, and there is not a 'photo moment' that doesn’t pass where I don’t think, 'Lynse would do such a great job shooting this for our family.' It was a always a pleasure to work with her." ~Megan
"What an amazing photographer!! We had Lynse take photos of our newborn son. She was so patient with us and our little guy. Our son had plans of his own for our photo shoot. Lynse just rolled with it and in the end we received beautiful photos! We were so pleased with the results. I would definitely recommend Lynse. Hoping we can get some family photos done with her in the future!" ~Carol
"Lynse is a wonderful photographer. We took some much needed family photos and Lynse captured some amazing shots. With 3 kids 3 and under I was worried we wouldn’t be able to get many good pictures but Lynse made my kids feel so comfortable. She was so patient with them and had lots of fun props to get their attention. She even helped me coordinate our outfits before hand! She’s amazing!!" ~Lauren
"It was relaxing and enjoyable to work with Lynse. She took the most amazing Fall photos of my family (doggies included). We received numerous compliments on our Christmas card and how the pictures looked like they could be on a magazine cover. Lynse is great with kids and she made us feel very comfortable during the shoot. Very happy that we chose Lynse to capture some great shots that we will have forever!" ~Brit
