Meet Your Photographer, Lyndsey Thomas
Wife. Mother. Photographer. Lover of dogs and the perfect latte. Basic, right?! So, let’s get to know each other a little better. I live in Whitby, Ontario, with my husband, our son and our 2 Boston Terriers. When I’m not capturing memories for people, you’ll find me rekindling my love affair with books, shopping at local vendor fairs and farmers markets, and dreaming about home decorating! I’ve been photographing families and newborns for over 13 years. I’m trained in newborn posing safety and am CPR certified. I am accredited with APNPI, an association dedicated to safety and excellence in newborn photography. In 2019 I was honoured to win a 3rd placing in the APNPI Image Competition, and in 2018, I won 2 awards in the Uncommon Creative Collective Image Competition.
I want to share a story about why photography is so important to me. When I was a teen, I lost my dad to cancer. In those final weeks with him, my sister and I put together a photo album of our favourite photos from our childhood. We took it to the hospital and sat with him for hours reminiscing about the good times, and the memories those photos held for us. Sitting with my dad and talking about these times, poring over these photos, is what I hold dear from my final days with him. Today, that photo album is one of the most important things I own.
So tell me, do you have photos with the ones you love? Let’s work together and document the details of your newborn so they are never forgotten, or future milestones as your family grows and ages. Let’s create timeless pieces to display in your home and cherish in your heart.
What People are saying
It was such a pleasure getting to work with Lyndsey! She did photos for my sons 6 month milestone. She was so patient with my wiggly, distracted baby boy. The photos came out beautifully, she was always quick to reply to my emails and questions leading up to the shoot, had the photos ready right on the time she said they would be! Highly recommend!
Amazing family photos! I loved everything about my experience with Lyndsey. She was very accommodating. Lyndsey is both an amazingly talented photographer and a very amicable person. This was the first time I had pictures taken, I thought it was going to be a long and stressful process, but she worked through it all very smoothly, feeling more like a casual afternoon with the family and a friend than a photo session. I can not stress enough how much I liked the end result. I love the vibrant colours, the angles, the expressions she captured on everyone's faces... just stunning pictures. I will definitely go with Elle Marie Photography again for my next photo session.
Our experience with Elle Marie Photography was terrific. Lyndsey was super responsive to my email inquiry about what she could offer for a new born shoot was also interested in what we had in mind as well. Her online platform made correspondence and setting up the shoot easy. She was very patient with our uncooperative little girl and gave us plenty of time to get the right shots. We are thrilled with the outcome! Would definitely recommend to expecting parents wanting newborn pictures.
