I am so excited to come share this. Several months ago I was asked to do a photo display at the new offices of Austin Area OBGYN at North Austin Medical Center. After months of planning, measuring, design, having them select the images (I wanted them to choose since they have to look at them all day, every day), and then printing, the first round is finally going up. Jase stopped by there this morning to hang the first 3 (of 20+) and snapped a few iphone pics. The first one is the shot of Teagan and Jase for their blood pressure station (would that lower your bp??). The second shot of Calla is over one of the nurses […]

product highlight | custom designed image boxes | austin birth photographer

Image boxes are hands down my favorite product. When they land on my door step I run to tear open the package because I just can’t wait to have it in my hands and ohhhhh and ahhhhh over it. They are substantial and sturdy and just oh so gorgeous. I’ve been doing these for my birth clients this year and I’ve been meaning to come share some photos for awhile. Image boxes are custom designed for each birth client and can include the birth date, birth stats, name as well as customizable text down the spine. And if the gorgeous box wasn’t enough, when you open it up, all the birth proofs sit perfectly inside, complete with a ribbon for […]

I met MC not long after moving to Austin. We quickly became friends and I began to mentor her and help her with her photography journey. And by mentor, I mean hang out and goof off with our cameras. But there hasn’t been very much mentoring going on. Life is busy, especially at their house. Not long after this session, MC and Jon announced they were expecting baby #2, thrilling news! Just a few short weeks later Jon was diagnosed with cancer. They are a strong and faithful family and after a few days of shock and tears, came out swingin ready to fight. They rolled with what the coming days would bring them, dealing with chemo, a surgery […]

its not what you think | austin birth photographer

You may THINK the following post and images are about 4th of July.

and fireworks and family and kiddos draped in a flag.

((I’m still amazed Taryn held a sparkler….she’s deathly afraid of fireworks. It lasted all of 2.2 milliseconds when she threw it across the yard and ran the opposite direction…can’t believe I caught that shot through the window!))

You may THINK that this post is about grown men who love to blow stuff up.

Or you might THINK that this post is about little boys trying […]

the birth of audrey | austin birth photographer lyndsay stradtner

I know I’ve said it all before, each birth is so amazing, each one is so different. And it is true. I am so thankful to have been invited to share in this birth experience. I think I’ve mentioned this before, but most of my birth clients are either 2nd, 3rd or 4th+ time moms. I think it’s because first time moms have a fear of the unknown, not knowing what to expect, how they will react, would make anyone anxious about having it photographically documented. But what 2nd+ time moms know, and this is the reason they make up a large amount of my clientele, is that you will forget. You think you won’t, but you will. The memories […]

I’ll be out of pocket today photographing a birth. Clients if you need to reach me please either drop me an email or leave me a voicemail and I’ll get back to you just as soon as I can.

If anyone was keeping track in the comments below, MC graciously accepted Alli’s offer of victory and then proceeded to go into hard labor. Love it! And I’m so thankful I get to be here with them today…..
