Hi, my name is

EDLyn

I am a family

storyteller

From the start of our relationship, I am your family, friend and confidant. I see you embrace the messiness of life and I'm here to tell you that all of it matters. I want you to play with your kids, connect with their world, laugh big and hold them when they cry. These are the moments you can look back on for years to come.

family Testimonials


"She put everyone at ease, and captured candid photos of us hanging out and playing together that are truly lovely. I remember thinking at the end of the session that she surely could not have gotten a photo where my three year-old looked happy, but she pulled out some kind of magic and totally did it! "

I take about 1000 photos during our session, which then takes me about 3-4 hours to edit. Every image is given careful consideration before it makes it to your gallery. I love the editing process and my hope is that you can feel every range of emotion for your family when you look through it now and from years to come.

Living in the Pacific Northwest, we have access to some of the most gorgeous outdoor locations in the greater Seattle area. If the outdoors aren't your thing, I travel to your homes for one-of-a-kind in-home lifestyle photo sessions. My main love is to photograph your families and newborns in every stage of their lives with the same raw heart and open eyes I see the world with.


My photography style is candid and authentic shot in natural light, which allows you to put aside perfection and settle in with your family. I am with you throughout the process- right from helping you pick out your outfits to encouraging you to connect with each other during the session. My hope is that you leave your session more invigorated and excited about the photos to come. If you would like to know more about me and my photography process for your family, then head this way.
