Documenting your family’s right now is a big deal.

Toward the end of my second pregnancy, I started to feel this urgency to soak up every last bit of time with my oldest. My heart already felt so full of love for him—how could there possibly be room for another little person? I worried he’d feel short-changed, having to share mom and dad with someone else. Maybe you’ve felt that too? That pull to connect deeply, to make memories before life shifts again?

I felt it again when I scheduled a family film with my friend Krystal. Between booking and filming, we sold our house. Suddenly, that film became more than a session—it became a time capsule of a season that was about to change forever. Every time I watch it, I happy-cry thinking about our sweet old house.


Sometimes it’s the big milestones—like moving homes. Other times, it’s the little things: a lost tooth, a lap that’s just barely big enough for your babies anymore. If you’re in a stage you know you want to remember, it’s the perfect time to schedule a session. As one of South Bend’s only family photographers and videographers, I’m here to help you hold onto those fleeting moments.


You know there’s beauty in your family’s simple, everyday togetherness.

Not every memory is “Instagram-ready”—but they’re still the ones that matter.

Think belly laughs during a board game. Lazy Sunday mornings with everyone piled onto the couch. Pancakes for dinner because no one wanted to cook.

You don’t need matching outfits or perfect smiles to make memories worth saving. Your toddler’s curls catching the sunlight, your baby’s hand curled around yours, the way your partner looks at you when you’re all tangled up in laughter—that’s the magic.

Let me take what feels ordinary and show you how extraordinary it really is.


Your everyday moments feel like the ones that matter most.

Playing in the living room. Snacking at the kitchen table. An epic snuggle pile on the big bed.

Wouldn’t it be amazing if someone could press record on those moments? The giggles, the silly phrases, the spontaneous dance moves?

Hi, I’m Lindsey, and I’d love to be that someone for your family.

If I could, I’d squeeze your face between my hands and tell you: your everyday life is breathtakingly beautiful. It might feel mundane, but it’s sacred. It’s a gift. Let me show you just how lovely it is.


You treasure those old home videos.

You know the ones—grainy VHS footage of you in the backyard, your mom laughing behind the camera, your grandparents waving from the porch.

If you’re lucky enough to have them, you know what a gift they are. If you don’t, you know the ache of wishing you did.

That’s why preserving your family’s right now matters. Because one day, your kids—or even their kids—will treasure these films and photos as a window into their story.


You believe “real life” beats “perfectly posed” any day.

Sure, I love a classic smiling-at-the-camera portrait. But my favorite moments happen in between—snuggles, laughter, mischievous grins.

When families tell me, “We just want to hang out—can you capture that?” my answer is always yes. Those are the sessions that feel the most alive. And they are always everything.


You want your family to feel something when they look back.

Family photos and films aren’t just about what you see—they’re about what you feel.

It’s noticing your child’s smirk looks just like yours in your baby pictures. It’s watching your mom and seeing glimpses of your grandma. It’s holding onto joy during hard seasons by remembering the good ones.

Every photo, every frame becomes another chapter in your family’s story. And if you’re ready to add to your record, I’m here to help you do it.
