Lindsay Lee Photography – Blog bio picture
  • My camera is merely the tool that joins my eyes and heart as one.

    Children fascinate me, whether they are a tiny newborn or a 10 year old. I believe they grow wings and fly before we are all really ready to let them go. As a mom myself, I see it every day: my baby girl went from saying a few words to saying full sentences in a matter of months, and she's now developing an endless imagination to top it off! I know she will continue to spread her wings, as all children do, and every age and stage will be a new and fascinating adventure! With my heart and eyes to guide me, I can only hope to continue to use my camera to express my pure love and fascination with children. After all, childhood is a magical time, perhaps because no matter how nostalgic we become as adults, we can never again experience first hand the joy and beauty of being a child.

Happy Birth Day, Little One | Sarasota’s Birth Photographer

I had the honor this morning to capture the birth of a beautiful baby girl. She was a surprise, because no one knew for sure if J & J were expecting a boy or a girl! Mama J gave birth naturally at Birthways Family Birth Center here in Sarasota. She did a beautiful job – and here’s the proof! Look at this beautiful baby girl!

Congratulations to J, J, and their whole family. Your baby is truly a miracle and a beauty!

Happy Birth Day, little one:).

My Favorites from the Beautiful Babies Mini Session Event | Sarasota Baby Photographer

I just had to share some more of my favorite images from the Beautiful Babies Mini Session event I hosted last month:).

I plan on hosting more mini session events in the near future. If you are interested, or want to know more, please contact me – I’d love to hear from you!:)

It Would be an Honor to Create a Photo Documentary of Your Child’s Birth Day | Sarasota Birth Photographer

It’s the most important day of your baby’s life. Relish every moment of this beautiful journey.

Birth Photography is real. It’s powerful. It’s emotional. It’s a promise you’ll remember this miracle forever.

A birth in a hospital, at a birthing center, a homebirth, a c-section – no matter where or how you give birth, the memories of that day will be the most compelling and precious memories you’ll ever have, but they can get lost in the fog of labor and emotion. What did you look like as you saw your newborn for the first time? How did your baby look in the instant he was born? Who was in the room? Who smiled? Who cried? Never forget this day. Make sure your baby’s very first photo session is incredible.

I am looking for an expecting mom who is due in August (or soon after) and is interested in a complimentary birth photography session in exchange for permission to use some images for my birth photography portfolio and advertising. Of course, all client’s comfort levels and boundaries will be respected, and I wouldn’t share any images a client is not comfortable sharing.

My first birth photography session includes up to 6 hrs of labor, delivery, and post delivery, and travel up to 60 mi. round trip from zip code 34285 ($1/mi. additional).  The client will receive 60-100 fully retouched images on CD and a custom designed DVD slideshow played to music.
f
I will try to be unobtrusive and document the birth as best as I can with the available lighting.  No props, no flash (unless absolutely necessary and I will ask mom’s permission first), no posing, etc.  Because of this, we may have low light situations and images may be more raw, perhaps with a bit of film grain or motion blur.  Most images will be in black and white.
f
If you or someone you know is expecting soon, and may be interested in a complimentary birth photography session, contact me as soon as possible (at least 2 weeks prior to the due date) via the contact link on this blog. I look forward to documenting this very special day:).
l
***Update***
The Complimentary Birth Photography offer is now closed, but I am taking waiting list requests for this offer if the mother to be is due in September or later. If you would like to be added to the wait list, please contact me for more information. Please note that Birth Photography will be something I offer on a regular basis in the coming weeks – stay tuned for more information! Thank you:).

Not One, Not Two, But FIVE Beautiful Babies! | Sarasota Baby Photographer

Last week, I hosted a Beautiful Babies Mini Session event with the help of my amazingly awesome friend, Y. I spent the whole day getting to know and photograph five very beautiful babies ranging in ages from 6 – 9 months new. All in all, it was a very fun day. As always, all of the babies were photographed using only natural light, whether indoors using window light, or outdoors. I’m happy to say that every baby’s unique personality provided me with many different expressions and lots of beautiful images! Thank you for coming, moms & babies! Now, here is what you’ve all been waiting for: a sneak peek of your gorgeous little ones!:)

Baby Boy E – 8 Months New

I’ve known baby E since before he was even born! I photographed his mom’s maternity session, and his newborn and 4 month sessions so far. Baby E was on my Belly to Baby plan, and now he is on my 4, 8, and 12 month Baby plan. Keep an eye out for baby E again in a few more months for his very first birthday portrait session! I cannot believe how quickly time flies.

I simply adore baby E, and how could I not? Look at this gorgeous little man!

Baby Boy C – 7 Months New

Baby boy C was a baby of serious expressions. He is so precious, and I just adored his serious side. I love his soulful eyes, and I have a feeling he will grow up to be a little charmer! Take a look at this beautiful baby boy!

Baby Girl C – 9 Months New

Baby girl C is such a natural in front of the camera! I simply LOVED her calm and observant nature – she was simply content and pleased with everything! She seemed to really be enjoying herself – can you tell?:)

Baby Girl Z – 9 Months New

Last, but certainly not least, we have baby girl Z! Z was a mover! At 9 months, she is a very fast little girl who is steady on her feet! I have a feeling she will be walking in no time! Baby Z was full of expressions, though she made us work for smiles! Baby Z is a very cute little girl indeed – take a look!

I want to thank all of the moms who attended, as I really had a lot of fun getting to know and photograph your beautiful babies!

I will be hosting more Mini Session events in the near future. I am currently taking requests for age groups for the next event. What a great way to get beautiful portraits of your little one for a fraction of the cost of my full, custom portrait experience. For more information regarding Mini Session events and costs, please contact me using the contact link on this blog.

As always, leave some love! I’d love to know everyone’s thoughts, and I love reading comments! Thank you!:)

Welcome to the New Blog! | Sarasota Children’s & Newborn Photographer

Hello and welcome to the new blog of Lindsay Lee Photography! For those of you who may not know, I’ve recently upgraded to a fancy new website on a new and better and host! I must say, the move has been very positive for the most part, and I LOVE how easy it is for me to make changes to my new website – not to mention the fact that my new website is fabulous! (Really, check it out!) However, there is some bad news (take the good with the bad, right?): my old blog became lost in the transition process.:(However, with a glass half full approach, I decided that this is the perfect opportunity for a fresh start! I’ve done a little bit of soul searching, and took some time to do some re-branding with Lindsay Lee Photography:). The website is due for some changes in the near future as well!

So here we are, the new and improved Lindsay Lee Photography blog! I’d love to hear what you think, so feel free to browse around the blog, get a feel for the new look, and leave a comment or two!:)

Oh – and since no post is complete without an image, here is a portrait of my constant source of inspiration: my beautiful 2 year old baby girl:).
