I am the one behind the lens at Light & Lynds, LLC.

Clearly I love a good pun, or play on words. I’m a natural light photographer, based out of my home state, North Carolina, currently serving the Raleigh area. Most of my experience includes families and children, but I love to dabble in various types of photography. I work with natural light and a documentary-style approach to create beautiful authentic images. Capturing candid moments are my vibe; I strongly believe that your photos should tell a story and spark emotions.

Art has been my passion since I was 5 years old and won my first award for a drawing I did in Kindergarten of my teacher. Ever since then, I’ve loved anything that allows me to channel the creative side of my brain. One consistent part of my art is that I always focused on PEOPLE. Looking back, I now realize that both of my high school AP art concentrations were a study of human emotion, interactions, and complexity. Depicting the beauty of human life was always the driving force behind my drawings and paintings. In college, I got my first DSLR camera. Ironically, the purpose of my camera was to document architectural models and projects I created. When my first baby was born in 2014, I vowed to learn how to actually use my camera. Through the learning process, I fell in love with documentary and portrait photography; the artistic freedom and emotion behind each photo captivated me. Since then, photography became a passion project of mine. Slowly over the years, between motherhood and my work-life, I developed a brand out of this passion and honestly it feels like I’m living a dream.
