ABOUT LINDSEY

Hi, I’m Lindsey. A lover of all things film and the outdoors.

OAKLAND, CA BASED COMMERCIAL PHOTOGRAPHER WITH A LOVE FOR THE OCEAN, THE SIERRAS, + THE DESERT

My work is fun, free, and youthful. It’s not overly produced and is often a little bit chaotic, but with extra attention on artistic and playful composition. I draw inspiration from growing up in a small beach town in the 90s. Think sunset swims and barefoot summers.

I’m a city girl who gets outside as often as possible. Equally comfortable backpacking in the Eastern Sierras and at a museum in the city. Shooting with me is like sharing a Modelo at a campsite down a dirt road one night, then a bottle of natural wine back in the city the next.

ABOUT ME

I bought my first camera, a polaroid, in high school so I could take cool photos of myself for MySpace. Honestly, not much has changed.

I started shooting film a few years later when I took my grandma’s old Nikon FM with me when I moved to Brooklyn. Years later I borrowed a digital camera and began to shoot professionally. I do own my own digital gear now, but all those years of shooting film and cultivating a personal style greatly shaped how I see and shoot and edit.

Foremost, I am interested in creating magic. The kind of magic you associate with nostalgic film photos from your grandma. I love to create and capture artful moments—both for brands and your personal life. My work aims to evoke a sense of freedom with a touch of moodiness and romance. I love collaborating and making each shoot unique to the client, working with you to create your vision. Let’s get dirty in the desert, let’s take your product on a road trip, let’s shoot your bar while it’s open.
