about lindsay

Hi, I'm Lindsay-a Peoria-based photographer capturing love, laughter, and all the beautifully unscripted moments in between. With over five years behind the lens and nearly 50 weddings, 75+ family sessions, and even elopements and births documented, I’m here to tell your story in the most honest, heartfelt way.

Get to know me

Work with me

The little moments, the chaos, the love. That’s why I don’t chase perfection; I chase feeling. The giggles, the quiet in-between moments, the kind of memories that make you stop in the hallway and smile at the photos on your wall. Whether it’s your wedding day or a simple, love-filled session with your family, I’m here to capture the magic of your story, just as it is. Let’s create something unforgettable together.

As a mama of three, I know how fleeting time feels.

As someone who feels everything deeply, my goal is to capture the heart of each moment; the real, raw, and beautifully unscripted.

Photography isn’t just about taking photos—

it’s about reaching beyond the surface to capture those in between moments that make life so real and beautiful.

When I first picked up my camera, it was to take photos of my firstborn child. I didn’t want to miss a beat — and within that started to unfold all of these emotions inside me. Think about it. How often do us mamas get in FRONT of the camera, to allow that space to captivate US being present with our babies?

Work with me

Or let’s say for even the lovers. We’re always taking selfies or we look drop dead gorgeous on our wedding day — but why not just because? Let’s not have an occasion to be present and capture life, let’s MAKE it happen because you want to capture the season you’re in.

“This photography, this business is not just taking photos. It’s reaching out way beyond the surface around me to touch a small glimpse of the world around me”

Rooted in Connection

timber rose brand values:

I want to feel like a friend, not just a photographer. Beyond the camera, I’m a regular person who values genuine connection. My goal is to make you feel cared for before, during, and after our session.

01: Safe Space

I’m not your typical photographer (if you haven’t noticed by now). You’re not just a client—you’re a soul trusting me to capture your season. I deeply honor the vulnerability and meaning behind every session.

02: Connection

I want you to remember this experience like no other. To walk away feeling like you’ve known me forever + have the best time from start to finish

03: Experience

I strive for raw, authentic moments. Your session should reflect the full spectrum of emotion—not just joy, but also the humbling, quiet, and even bittersweet moments that make your story real.

04: authenticity

Perfection is my standard when delivering your gallery. While I quote up to 30 days for the final return, I typically deliver within three weeks—because you shouldn’t have to wait too long for your beautiful images!

05: turnaround time

You'll receive a collection of moments, big and small, that tell your story exactly as it is.
