Hey there,
I'm Lindsey Paradiso!
I'm a Washington wedding photographer with a passion for capturing the unique essence of each couple's special day. Since founding my photography business in 2015, I've embraced a vibrant, romantic, and candid style—steering clear of stiff poses to highlight genuine moments and emotions.
I thrive on building fast connections, a trait that allows me to blend seamlessly into wedding celebrations. I love capturing relaxed and candid moments that truly reflect the uniqueness of each couple's wedding day. When I'm not photographing weddings, I'm likely exploring the outdoors on a hike with my partner and our dog, Lola, diving into a captivating book, or enjoying the latest Netflix series.
If my approach to photography speaks to you and you're drawn to my work, I'd love to connect and hear more about your wedding plans. Together, we can celebrate and immortalize your love story in a way that's as unique and special as your bond.

"Choosing our photographer was one of the most important decisions for me. I really wanted to feel comfortable and at ease, but also have photos that would capture the beauty and joy of the day. Lindsey did such a great job. She made my husband and I feel like studs during our photo shoot and did an incredible job capturing big moments from the first look to small details that I missed at the ceremony."
"Completely over the moon with how the photos turned out."
KIND WORDS FROM PAST CLIENTS
"She responds quickly to emails and texts and gives lots of direction when taking photos if needed. She edited our photos quicker than we expected and they turned out beautifully! Her editing style is so pretty, and we were given black and white options with most photos as well. If you’re thinking about booking with Lindsey I would say it’s definitely worth it!"
"Lindsey was great to work with!"
KIND WORDS FROM PAST CLIENTS
"We knew choosing our photographer was important, and while we initially picked her based off her photography style and the art she created for weddings, what we ended up with was so much more. She wrangled our scatter brained families, she kept everyone on track, and she always looked out for US. She was exactly as direct and forceful as our families required, without ruffling any feathers. She was professional, kind, and an over all rockstar. Lindsey gave it her all, for 10 hours straight, just to make sure we had memories of our special day. The day after our wedding Lindsey's name came up multiple time amongst our family and friends, always followed by the words "awesome" "amazing" "incredible". I never want to plan a wedding again, but if I did my first call would be to Lindsey."
"Lindsey is the best decision we made for our wedding."
KIND WORDS FROM PAST CLIENTS
"Lindsey is simply the best. We had the pleasure of working with her for our engagement photos, and on our wedding day. We can not say enough amazing things about her creative eye, her ability to make anyone feel comfortable, her professionalism, just being an all around kind and compassionate human being. It was really important to gel with our photographer, someone who would be following us around on one of the most important days of our lives, and she won us over from the first Zoom meet and greet. She went above and beyond, and delivered beautiful, life-long memories. She is the best and we can not sing her praises enough!"
"Lindsey is simply the best. She goes above and beyond!"
KIND WORDS FROM PAST CLIENTS
"This woman creates magic with her camera in her hands. We got back hundreds of photos, each one beautiful and special to us. I got to see moments I never saw at my wedding and got to relive the best moments of the day. I was so amazed because she got gorgeous photos of my entire family, even my disabled siblings who struggle to have good photos taken of them. In my husband's culture, the guests want lots of photos with the bride and groom, and Lindsey had so much patience to take photos of us with SO many guests. She also got lots of family photos for our guests, and many have spread a tear over how beautiful their families look."
"I got to see moments I never saw at my wedding!"
KIND WORDS FROM PAST CLIENTS
"Lindsey was absolutely amazing throughout the whole process. She is so down to earth and relaxed while somehow getting an incredible amount of work accomplished. During our engagement session, she made us visibly more relaxed and had us laughing to break us out of our awkward shells. And on the actual wedding day she was just phenomenal. She was so amazing with our families, able to wrangle people and kids here and there and somehow create organization from the chaos. When we received our photos, I was overwhelmed by how many incredible shots she captured. She got everything from the candids of our friends dancing down to the most amazing little details from the day. If you're looking for a photographer, we 100% recommend Lindsey!"

My favorite place to be is outside
Trying to preserve the way that nature makes me feel is a big part of why I choose the shoot locations that I do. Shooting inside can be a great exercise for pushing creativity, but it's outdoors where I feel that I really shine! Playing with the sun, the wind, and other natural elements has led to some of my favorite images.
It's a goal of mine to visit all United State's National Parks. So far I have made it to 14! Yosemite and Zion are currently tied for my top spot. If you're thinking about eloping in a National Park, bring me along :)
SAVE THE NATIONAL PARKS!
In true Leo fashion, I can be pretty competitive, but that also means I am always up to play a board game with you. When I get a CATAN board of my own, it's over for you! In the same vein, if you invite me to karaoke I cannot say "no".
I LOVE A GOOD GAME NIGHT
If I wasn't a photographer, I would be a chef. I absolutely love to cook and since going plant-based I have really honed my cooking skills! My partner and I have been putting together a cookbook for the last two years. If you'd like access to the note, let me know :)
COOKING IS MY HAPPY PLACE
i have acrophobia
I am scared of heights, but if I have a camera in my hand it's like I'm invincible. Trying to get the shot will get me climbing up onto boulders and out onto ledges. I've flown in a helicopter a few times and the only way I have made it is with a camera in my hands!
My GOAL IS TO READ 25 books this year
I always loved reading as a kid, but in the last few years I have lost that habit. This year I have made a goal to read 25 books! I am only 6 books in so I am a little behind. Send suggestions my way and follow me on GoodReads!
I WAS BITTEN BY THE TRAVEL BUG
I've been to 30 different countries and 34 states plus Puerto Rico. After COVID my traveling drastically decreased and I can't wait to dust off my Passport and get back on a plane. Argentina and the Dolomites are on the top of my "what's next?" list.
i'm a barista certified
My family used to own a coffee shop and I spent a few years as the manager. I can make a really amazing cup of coffee, but I hate caffeine so I won't drink it haha.
