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.

Confession time.  Sometimes I get really bored photographing my kids in my own house.  I love my kids, they are fun, and always provide me with great opportunities to capture real life.  But I get bored with my house and the light.  I know all the good spots and the places I need the kids to be in so I can get good lighting and a good shot.  Sometimes, being stuck inside these walls is just, the same, uninspiring, blah spot.  This tends to hit me the hardest in January, when I actually have time, since September and the beginning of busy season, to actually capture my own kids.  It’s also cold and heading out to capture them somewhere more […]

7.  I can’t believe it.  I feel nostalgic with each of her birthdays just like I do my own kiddos.  Ms. Jane showed up to this session with a killer playlist on her ipod and her dancing shoes.  My favorite moment was when she was dancing with her shadow, then decided she wanted me to dance with her and insisted I put my camera down to do just that!  So fun!

One of my favorite families to catch up with each fall!  I’ll admit, I thoroughly enjoy them and have grown to love the fact that their dog Mathilda is less than humored by my antics.  Usually she rolls her eyes at me and is perfectly happy letting me take photos of her doing so!  Ha!  But not this year, she showed up ready for her close up and ready to smile.  I think she was trying to throw me for another loop, keeping me on my toes, she is!  Ha!  That’s alright, I’ll just call myself the dog whisperer until we meet again next […]
