Capturing moments of life on film has been a significant passion of Lindsay's
for the last twelve years. She is indebted to influences, such as Henri
Cartier-Bresson, Edward Weston, and Bernice Abbott, as well as to personal
affiliations: teachers and fellow photographers. She is grateful to them for
sharing their enthusiasm and dedication to the art of photography.
Since receiving a degree in Fine Arts from Luther College in Decorah, Iowa,
Lindsay has held a position as photographer with a company specializing in
portrait and candid photos, she has spent close to two years living abroad and
concentrating on travel, landscape and architecture photography, and she has
continuously been requested to photograph weddings and other events. Thank you
for visiting the site, and please feel free to send Lindsay a message to
receive more information.
"We are passive onlookers in a world that moves perpetually. Our only moment of
creation is that 1/125th of a second when the shutter clicks, the signal is
given, and motion is stopped..."
Henri Cartier-Bresson

She is currently a student midwife and enrolled in the Indie Birth School of Midwifery with a hopeful
graduation date of August 2025. Her outlook on birth is that our bodies know how to birth and the
less intervention and the more support a birthing person has, the better the outcomes! She will
provide physical, emotional, spiritual and mental support and help to guide you and your partner
through the pregnancy, birth and postpartum processes as YOU would like to experience them. The
North Coast Doulas motto is "your birth, your body, your baby."
