I am amazed how she captured our day-the flowers, the food and decorations, the dancing and the send-off. My favorite pictures are her candids that capture all of the emotions of the day. I also have to say Lyndsey is so incredibly kind, personable and professional. She will make you feel comfortable during the photo sessions. I cannot emphasize enough how important it is to have wedding photos that you love. They are what you have after the special day is long past! You will not go wrong to entrust Lyndsey with your special day!

Lyndsey is the BEST!! She photographed our wedding and Daughters graduation photos and they all came out so good! She is super sweet and captures such great moments. I would highly recommend her!

Lisa Maley

Lyndsey has been our family photographer for 6 years now! She captures all of the memorable moments in our lives. Our maternity shots, Lucas’s newborn photos, and this year we joined Santa! Her pictures are fabulous and she has an amazing way with kids with short attention spans LOL! We love Lyndsey and truly has become a part of our family.

Hey there, sweet friends! It&rsquo;s been a minute since I&rsquo;ve done an introduction post, so here we go. I&rsquo;m Lyndsey, the face and heart behind Lyndsey Sayles Photography.
&nbsp;
Ever since I can remember, photography has been an integral part of my life, thanks to my dad&rsquo;s love for the art. From those early days with a camera in hand, capturing life&rsquo;s fleeting moments became my calling. Fast forward to today, and I&rsquo;ve been fortunate to turn my passion into a full-time photography&nbsp;career.
Oh, and speaking of incredible journeys, I&rsquo;ve been married to my amazing husband for almost 10 wonderful years (we celebrate in October, so basically 10 years at this point)! Together, we share a love for travel, discovering delicious foods, and pampering our fur baby, Norah Grace. Our journey together has been filled with laughter, adventure, and countless cherished memories.
&nbsp;
At Lyndsey Sayles Photography, we specialize in giving couples a hands-on experience throughout the wedding planning process. I understand that planning a wedding can be overwhelming, especially when it&rsquo;s your first time. That&rsquo;s why I&rsquo;m here to not only capture your special day but also guide you through the process, ensuring you&rsquo;re confident in your vendor choices and that you&rsquo;re ready to embrace your wedding day with excitement and as little stress as possible.
&nbsp;
While I&rsquo;m based St. Louis, MO, my camera and I love to travel all over the country, capturing love stories in the most breathtaking settings. And yes, Greece, Spain, and Sweden are definitely on our bucket list of dream destinations! (so if you have an upcoming trip to one of these destinations, lets chat).
&nbsp;
I believe happy people produce happy images. Sometimes I still cannot believe this is my job. I believe in capturing more than just images; I&rsquo;m all about those emotional and genuine moments that make your heart skip a beat. Whether it&rsquo;s a tearful first look or a belly-laugh shared between two people in love, those are the moments that matter most.
&nbsp;
So, whether you&rsquo;re planning your dream wedding, an intimate elopement, or simply want to freeze a special moment in time, I&rsquo;m here and excited to be a part of it all. Stay tuned for glimpses of my work, tips for couples planning their big day, and of course, a peek into my life behind the lens.
Feel free to say hello, share your stories, or drop any questions you might have. Let&rsquo;s embark on this wonderful journey together, capturing love and life&rsquo;s beautiful moments, one click at a time!
&nbsp;
Until next time friend!
Big hugs, Lyndsey

Hi Friend! I’m Lyndsey

As the leaves begin to change and the air turns crisp, fall offers a picturesque backdrop for your love story to unfold. Planning your fall engagement pictures is an exciting journey that allows you to capture the essence of this enchanting season. Here are a few tips to help you make the most of your autumn-themed photoshoot.

Work with Your Photographer:
Engaging with your photographer before the session can help you both envision the shots you want. Share your ideas, inspirations, and preferences. Your photographer&rsquo;s expertise will guide you in capturing the magic of fall and your relationship.
&nbsp;
Choose Complementary Outfits:
Your outfit choices should harmonize with the autumn palette. Earthy tones like deep reds, burnt oranges, and warm browns work wonderfully against the fall backdrop. Cozy layers, like scarves and jackets, add dimension and style while keeping you comfortable during the cooler weather
&nbsp;
Timing is Key:
The soft, golden light of fall enhances the warmth of your photos. Plan your engagement session during the &ldquo;golden hour,&rdquo; which is the hour or so before sunset. This natural lighting creates a romantic, ethereal glow that beautifully complements the season. Also remember the sun sets earlier in the fall, so this means in the Midwest, fall sessions can start as early as 3:30 pm depending on how late into fall we schedule your session.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Incorporate Seasonal Elements:
Adding touches of fall can infuse charm into your photos. Think about bringing along props like plaid blankets, pumpkins, or baskets of apples for a playful touch. These elements can add depth and a touch of personality to your images.
&nbsp;
Let Nature Take the Lead:
Autumn&rsquo;s beauty speaks for itself, so allow the surroundings to guide your poses and interactions. Walk through fallen leaves, cozy up beneath a tree, and share genuine moments of laughter and connection. These candid shots capture the heart of the season and your love.

Bonus Tip: 
Don&rsquo;t forget to clean your engagement ring &amp; paint your nails (or at least try not to have chipped nail polish). Your hands &amp; ring will be in most of your pictures, so you want to show off your sparkle! 
&nbsp;
As you plan your fall engagement pictures, remember that this season offers a unique opportunity to showcase your love against a backdrop of nature&rsquo;s splendor. Let the colors, textures, and atmosphere of autumn tell your story, creating images that are not only stunning but also deeply meaningful.
&nbsp;
Until next time friends-&nbsp;
Big hugs!

Video Title

You will find the about page from my existing website between the “” below. You can use this section primarily for tone of voice and style as opposed to content. Make sure that all references to the self are in the first person singular, as I am the only photographer on my team. Please also ensure that there are no references to “our team” or “our photographer”. Instead, all writing should be coming directly from me. I would also like it to be quite down to earth and without lots of fluff and flowery language. "My photography journey started in college I took a photography class and I fell in love with the idea of getting to capture people’s joy and laughter, because how could you not? I have taught photography and graphic design in high school and eventually, I bought my own camera to put into practice what I was teaching! It is my mission to bring you ease and guidance on your special day; to help you feel relaxed, bring a couple of laughs and to capture the very special moments that you won't want to forget!"

I'm a bubbly & positive kind of vibe girl. I love iced coffee, pink, and anything with sparkles. I've been a wife for the last 10 years to my husband Phil. We live in St. Louis, MO and have a beautiful German Shepard, Norah Grace.

Photography has been a passion of mine long before it was my profession. My dad is a photographer and has encouraged me throughout the years. I still get so excited to send him images that I know he will love too. 
On your wedding day, you'll most likely see me tear up and smile a lot. I love connecting with both families that are joining together on the wedding day. This is the start of a new chapter for the couple, and to be the one to protect those memories, I do not take that job lightly. 
Finally, I value relationships and friendships with all of my couples. We spend a lot of time together during the process from when you sign a contract to wedding day, and I enjoy getting to know my couples on a deeper level.
