Kind Words

  • “Lindsay is a serious baby whisperer. I I have never witnessed skills like hers. She took our newborn daughter's pictures, and they were AMAZING! We can't wait for our milestone appointments coming up. It was a true experience watching her work…She is the sweetest as well, and made us feel so comfortable. Her space is lovely! She is very professional, but also so personable. We won't go anywhere else for our photos.“

    ~ Autumn

  • LOVE LOVE LOVE Lindsay! She is the kindest and sweetest photographer there is, not to mention her photos are amazing. We drive an hour to see her but it’s worth every sec each time. You will never be let down from the moment you walk through her door!

    ~ Tara

  • "The gallery is incredibly precious. You've done a beautiful job throughout, from inception via email, to meeting, to poses, to attire with props, to ordering, to editing and finishing!

    But what makes you extra special is what you can't see. Your endearing and gentle finesse with not only the baby, but with the family as well is a dream.

    You’re a very special human being”

    ~ Jacqueline

  • "We have been getting photos with Lindsay for over 5 years when I was pregnant with my oldest. We have now had over 15 sessions with Lindsay and she is beyond amazing! I wouldn't trust my kiddos with anyone else! Lindsay treats you like part of her family and my girls start begging too see her again after each session. I know I will treasure her photos for a lifetime.”

About Lindsay 

Hi, I’m Lindsay!

For the past 11 years I have photographed over 700 newborns, and I also offer Newborn Mentoring & Training for other aspiring Newborn Photographers. I am a licensed and insured professional photographer, and have been serving Salem and the greater Portland area for 11 years.

I started my business photographing a friend’s newborn in my apartment living room, and fast forward 12 years, I now have a beautiful professional studio to welcome my clients to. I am so grateful and lucky that I followed my heart and my passion! Babies (and puppies :) have my heart.

While there are a million different styles of Newborn Photography, I always try to focus on images that I know parents will still love 20 years from now. I try not to follow fleeting trends too much, and instead focus on stunning, beautifully captured, timeless, modern, and clean images of your newborn. I want you to cherish your image for a lifetime, and focus on creating those types of images for you.

I have twin boys, (now toddlers! phew!) and they keep me laughing and on my toes everyday. I remember clearly what it’s like to be a new very exhausted parent, and I use this knowledge to make your time with me as easy and enjoyable as possible.

I get it. I know how hard it is to leave the house with your new baby, but I promise your experience with me will be lovely and you will be so grateful you did it.

Looking forward to meeting you and your brand new baby!
