About Lyndsay Stradtner

Lyndsay Stradtner and I am a natural light photographer with 14 years experience. While home is Austin, Texas, my family and I are currently traveling the US in an RV full time. Yes, we sold our 2,400 square foot home for a 400 square foot RV and couldn’t be happier about it! While our initial goal was to travel full time for one year, that quickly turned in to (at least) 3 years. I am married to a really great guy named Jason. With 5 kids (Ty, Taryn, Jude, Jonah and Zachary) and 2 dogs (Maggie and Pepper), our lives are filled with laughter and chaos, and I wouldn’t have it any other way! Be sure to check us out on Etsy, Instagram and YouTube.

About midway through their session we discovered that the sweet baby girl they were expecting would share the same name as my daughter.  I only know of two other Taryn’s so I was pretty excited!  They had no idea that I have a daughter named Taryn!  They said they’d had a hard time coming up with a middle name but had finally chosen one and were curious what we’d chosen.  Taryn Elizabeth….ha!  Seriously, what are the odds!  My clients have THE BEST taste in names lol!

The last few weeks have been overwhelming.  Mid-may, we went on an amazing camping trip and were lucky enough for my mom to come along.  We made so many wonderful memories and even captured a few.  The day after my mom went back to Alabama, my step dad got sick.  Within a day, he was pretty sick and in the hospital.  He wasn’t responsive, but rebounded after the first day in PICU and we all had hope he’d be fine and the plan was for him to go to rehab upon discharge.  But then he took a turn for the worse.  His blood pressure was low, he had a high fever, pnemonia and was septic.  The infection was […]

With a heavy heart, I have to share that my step dad, Larry Lee, has passed away. It’s been a long hard road since his spinal cord injury 15 years ago.

I met him as a little girl, he’d take my mom out dancing. He’d let me and my friends ride in the back of his truck down to the corner store where he’d buy us country lemonades and a kit kat. My mom followed her heart and we left Oregon and moved to live with him in Louisiana when I was 12. My grandmother loved his accent and thought he hung the moon. He adored her and her Maine accent right back. Larry […]
