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.

First day of school. A little bittersweet. This summer was amazing. We were focused on family, relaxed, we played and enjoyed one another. It was exactly what we needed after last summer being a trip to hell and back with Teagan’s vaccine reaction. We really did have a wonderful summer and I am going to miss these days so much. I also crave the schedule and structure that school brings. They are ready. I’ll be honest though, I loved having a big block of time where I could breathe easy and know that I was the only one feeding my kids, good, quality, allergy safe, food. School brings a whole other set of worries in that regard and I absolutely […]

There are so many things that I love about these….

How simple and easy and real this session was.
That this family had just moved and they were still unpacking, but you can tell looking at their gallery.
That this is the first session I used only things that I’ve knitted.
This big sister LOVES being a big sister. She gave me so much time to photograph her with her baby sister, I almost didn’t know what to do with myself, I didn’t have to hurry for the often troublesome toddler newborn pics!
When big sister declared little […]

real. three photos, three stories.

When I put up a post last week that I was making an unexpected trip to Houston, my photographer friend Wendi emailed me and grabbed it. And she knew just what she wanted….”birth photographer Lyndsay to show up”. Wendi wanted all the little real moment captured of her family at home, doing what they do, eating popcorn, playing, dress up, couch jumping, snuggling in bed, playing legos, painting toenails, all of that and more. She wanted me to capture them…..living. I LOVE that. In fact, when she emailed me about it I shared with her that I’m so smitten with this idea that Jase and I hired someone a few months ago to come in and do the exact […]
