The best photos come from real memories. Weddings are once in a lifetime events, and my focus is as much on your experience of your day as it is in capturing it. I hope to be a seamless part of your group, matching your energy, guiding you where needed and allowing you to be fully immersed in everything happening.
My work is natural, joyful, emotional and deeply personal, focused on connection, with an element of creativity and fun. I wear many hats on a wedding day–I know when to be a leader and where to give you space. I choose light and locations carefully but allow the events that happen there to play out without interference.
I love to dive deep into your personal vision for your day and can bring that to life through my taste for the editorial and expertise in curation. Your final gallery will have flow and a beautiful consistency that tells the story of your wedding in a way that’s completely unique to you, offers some surprises and takes you right back to where you were then.
Frequently Asked Questions

I define Full Day Coverage as beginning one hour prior to you getting dressed and ending one hour after the dance floor opens. I find this structure allows for the perfect amount of time to ease into the day and capture details and candids, plenty of great reception moments and full flexibility in between. We’ll work together to create a timeline that best fits your needs and keeps the day feeling relaxed! For most weddings this works out to be between 7 and 11 hours of time together.
I love to work this way so that I have more time and space to capture the in-between moments that make up so much of my work. To achieve real “candid” photos we need time to allow things to happen! This also gives us the flexibility to spend as much or as little time on photos as you’d like, I do not want you to make any decisions about how you will spend your wedding day based on limitations to the time your photographer will be present.

I believe that the best way to capture a wedding requires different approaches for different parts of the day, or even different approaches for different couples and families. My intention is always to let real moments play out as naturally as possible—I know I absolutely do my best work when I am able to capture spontaneity. That being said, I do believe that some parts of the day require a bit of a guiding hand and I am happy to be that for you! I am excellent at keeping family photos fun and fast, helping you feel more comfortable when it’s just you and me together, and managing our time overall. When it comes to your couple portraits I have you interact with each other and keep moving so that things feel natural, and if we are so inspired we can throw in a few killer editorial portraits too.
I’d love to talk to you more about how you hope to work with your photographer! If you genuinely want a fully documentary approach I am happy to photograph you that way, or we can find the right balance for you together. My goal is to deliver photos that feel like the most beautiful, romantic, fun version of your day full of real, genuine moments.

My work is primarily digital, but I love to add a bit of 35mm film as a fun supplement to your gallery. I currently bring a Contax G1 and Nikon F100 to weddings but there may be some other surprises in the mix as well. I do not view film as an essential part of my work, but if you are particularly excited by it I do offer the option to bring a second photographer that focuses almost entirely on film! I love this for a “best of both worlds” approach.
-
The number of photos in your gallery will vary depending on the length of your day, number of people present, weather, locations, etc. but for most weddings you can expect to receive about 100 photos per hour of coverage. All of your images are delivered through a beautiful gallery system that will remain online indefinitely, with unlimited downloads available.
-
Editing is an incredibly important part of the process! I hand-edit each photo to make sure that your wedding reflects my style but also has its own unique look. I deliver a large sneak peek gallery within 1-2 weeks of the wedding, and the full gallery within 8-12 weeks.
-
Most travel fees are included with my pricing, but for any weddings that require an overnight stay or flight I would ask for an additional flat rate (custom based on averages in your area) to cover those costs. For most weddings within 2.5 hours of Kittery, Maine an overnight is not required unless we are finishing our time together very late.
-
Yes! Printing rights allow you to bring your photos to any photo lab of your choice, but you also have the option to order prints, frames, calendars, albums, cards, and a number of other beautiful products through your gallery shop.
-
Absolutely! Choosing a video team that has a similar approach to your photographer is key. I have an in-house video team that takes on a limited number of dates per year, and I am also happy to recommend other videographers that I know I work extremely well with.
-
While custom pricing is sometimes needed, couples can expect to spend between $9500 and $17000 for weekend wedding coverage. Special pricing is available for weekday and intimate events!

“We wish we could give Lindsay ten stars. She is a truly special soul, who felt like an old friend from the moment we first spoke with her. Her photos are breathtaking - she has this amazing ability to capture her couples with such authenticity and emotion, and her photos look like they belong in Vogue. She also provides a calming presence throughout the day and works quietly in the background, yet captures all the "action" and most important moments with ease. She puts other vendors at ease and was helping to direct and organize our video team throughout the day as well so that everyone got what they needed, but no one was in the way. At our wedding, so many people told us what a marvelous job she seemed to be doing - and they hadn't even seen the photos yet! We could write novels about how much we loved working with Lindsay.” Alicia + Pat
“Hiring Lindsay was one the best decisions for our wedding. I could easily see from her previous galleries that her style was rich and full of story telling but the final product truly exceeded our expectations. We are beyond happy with how our entire gallery came out beginning to end. We decided not to do a videographer and I feel like the photos bring us and capture all the small moments just as well. Additionally, Lindsay is incredibly kind, patient, and professional - we had a very tight window to get in a lot of family photos and she crushed it while making me feel taken care of and low pressure. She got a shot of our whole wedding party that is creative and stunning and will be on our wall forever.” Brooke + Hunjae
“We cannot thank Lindsay enough for capturing our wedding with such care. From her artful attention to detail, to the warmth and positivity she brought to the weekend, we could not have imagined a better photographer. Her photos are magical—they somehow manage to capture not just how the day looked, but how it felt. Each time we look at these photos, we are transported back to the day—Lindsay managed to bottle up all of the emotions we experienced in such a special and authentic way. We are so excited to relive our wedding through her gorgeous work. Beyond her remarkable skill, we are so grateful to Lindsay for her gracious and collaborative approach throughout the planning process. On our wedding day, she and her team were a calming and subtle presence, making everyone feel comfortable, particularly folks—like ourselves—who are not used to being in front of a camera. Her kindness and professionalism made us and our guests feel completely at ease. Thank you, Lindsay, for being a wonderful partner!” Yunhan + Hans
