I am so dang excited to hear all about your love story! I've always dreamed of being able to stay home and raise my babies but still be able to create the art that burns so passionately in my heart. When I'm not behind the camera, you can find me doing all the mom things. A few of my go-to activities include hiking a new spot, spending the day at my favorite beach, or camping in the pines.

I am always up for an adventure or new experience. I regularly find myself in the Green Bay, Appleton, Madison, and even Milwaukee areas. One of my favorite parts of being a photographer is getting to know the couples I work with.

I also make sure to capture your day as it happens. Clients have often remarked that their gallery contained photos of moments they didn’t even know happened and would have otherwise missed! These are the types of photos that show movement and emotions and will bring back the sights, sounds, smells, and feelings from your big day. My photography style is also timeless and true-to-color. Your memories will be captured through bright, colorful, clean, and cheerful imagery.

Lindsay Stayton began her career in the photography industry in 2008. Her first gig was photographing The Worlds Largest Music Festival, Summerfest. In 2010, Lindsay was asked to photographed her first wedding after a couple stated "If you can photograph Flava Flave, then you can most definitely photograph our wedding!" Most couples have requested Lindsay to continue capturing life’s candid moments for their growing families, which led to her tag line: “Your Family Historian”. Lindsay has a distinct and unique style which captures real human emotion and candid moments.
