MY WHY

So often, moments go uncaptured and stories get left untold. Just as often, they get documented in ways that don’t truly capture the emotion felt at that time. Trends, unalignment, fear, disconnect — it all gets in the way of creating art that will last with you, your whole life. Art that you’ll show your children and their grandchildren. Art that’ll bring you back to a moment of love or adventure. Art that’ll spark the exact feeling you had as it was being documented.

What couples have to say about Light as Gold

Featured

“In our search for the perfect wedding photographer, we stumbled upon a strangers wedding photos that we absolutely fell in love with. We reached out to a few photographers, but Lindsey's (Light as Gold) style and quality made her our top choice by a long shot. She was great at communication and was so easy to work with.

We had a very small wedding (10 people total) and can sometimes be camera shy ourselves, but Lindsey made everyone feel so comfortable and the photos came out so candid and natural. She was great about providing little recommendations or directions when the time called for it, but also just staying back and capturing the moment. We even had the wedding at the worst time of day for lighting (around 1-2pm) but she was able to work around this and we were so impressed by how everything came out. We can't recommend Light as Gold enough and definitely plan on using her again for a shoot in the future!”

Nick + Lydia

“Lindsey is the real deal! She is not only a very talented photographer, making you feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera, but she's also a professional. From the moment we were on-boarded with her, every part of the process was clear and deadlines were met. I'd recommend her for anyone looking to have guaranteed beautiful and unique photos for their most important memories.”

Adelle + Josh

“Highly recommend!!! Lindsey's work is beautiful and she is so fun to work with! She does an awesome job making you feel comfortable and capturing candid and natural moments! She was also a great communicator leading up to our session which I so appreciated!”

Bailey

“We recently had the pleasure of working with Light as Gold for our wedding, and we can't recommend her enough. Her energy was contagious, and she made the whole experience easy for us as first-timers. The photos turned out amazing, capturing the essence of our special day perfectly. We're already looking forward to working with her again in the future. Choose Light as Gold as your wedding photographer—you won't be disappointed!”

Lacey + Colin

“If you are unsure of Lindsey/ Light as Gold don't be! She is amazing! You will have the best experience! You will get the photos you want and more! We will recommend her to everyone we can in the future. 10/10!! Lindsey/ Light as Gold was the best photographer!

Our initial goal was that we just wanted photos for our engagement. Even if we did not want to show them to anyone we wanted to remember ourselves and the moment. In the 5 years of mine and my partners relationship we have maybe 4 photos together because that is how much we disliked the idea of photos of ourselves. Lindsey though made the actual shoot so much fun. Not only did she relax us but she made us feel amazing about ourselves. In the end, the photos are our most treasured and favorite photos. We ended up actually letting our family's see and share the photos privately.”

Jazmin + Elijah

“When I met with Lindsey I had so many incomplete ideas and visions for how I wanted our wedding memories captured. From the moment we started chatting during our initial call, to the morning of our wedding, Lindsey had a way of taking in all of our half baked ideas and making them a true vision. She was so human and gentle with our unique and sentimental photo requests and made sure to not just capture the big moments, but also the smaller authentic moments. She beautifully and respectfully captured the woven traditions of our Indian and American cultures. She also made sure to get down the details of all of our timelines, names of key guests and the unique ways that we connected with our loved ones. This helped with capturing beyond staged photos, but instead, our big laughs and silent pets of our puppy Hazle.

There is so much I could say, but to sum it up - there is truly no other person I would have wanted capturing our love. Lindsey held it down from the beginning, to the day off with her calming, confident and direct communication to the delivery of our breathtaking photos.”

Ashika + Sarvesh

“Lindsey and team were AMAZING. We rescheduled our wedding like a lot of other couples had to in 2020-and from the very first call 3 years ago to the wedding picture proofs in our inbox today-there is not a kinder and more talented photographer out there.

Lindsey has a way of making you feel your best and really rallies around the fact that it is the couple's day-she's thorough in finding out what the most important things are to you-not to her. She captured our 10 year relationship and wedding day in all its anticipation and she made our awkward look cool-I don't know how she did it.

The photos are moody, inspiring, I am literally glowing in them-we trekked thru any piles and tree limbs to get the shots at sunset-she stopped mid chew when I requested a picture with my girls without hesitation-camera in hand after many photos were already taken. She is a bride's dream come true.”

Melissa + Jason

“I’d recommend Light as Gold to anyone and everyone needing some photos done, especially for a wedding!! She took every little request we had and went above and beyond delivering them. We’re obsessed with so many of our pictures that I genuinely can’t decide which to post and print. It’s been 3 days since we’ve received our gallery and I’ve already posted like 25 photos and I don’t plan to stop anytime soon because they’re just all too good! If you’re trying to find a wedding photographer, pick Lindsey for sure. You won’t be disappointed!”

Lindsee + John

“A childhood friend of mine who captured every.single.amazing detail of our day. She found a solution for every problem and made our day flow seamlessly. Because of her, I have the most magical photos to remember our special day. I have no other words except I LOVE her and hire her for ALL of your special events. You won’t regret it.”

Abby + Ryan

“Lindsey is the best! She is kind, helpful, and laid back. And her photos perfectly captured the spirit and joy of our wedding day. Definitely recommend!”

Jordan + Evan

“Lindsey is an absolute amazing photographer and an even more amazing human!!!! She was very easy to vibe with right off the bat. Both my fiancé and I felt very comfortable with her. I am looking forward to our future shoots with her.”
