Cape Cod Portrait Photographer

PICTURES THAT CAPTURE THE SPIRIT

Hi, I'm Lydia, your local Cape Cod professional portrait photographer! Specializing in capturing the love of families, couples, high school seniors, pets and so much more. My portrait sessions are always fun and relaxed. I’m able to source and provide the highest quality heirloom prints, canvases, and albums to fully display and enjoy your custom art.

Quite simply, there is no other job I would rather be doing! Photography has a special place in my heart, as there is a certain magic to it. I love translating and capturing someone’s heart and soul, their true self on a still image. What has always blown my mind is that an image years and decades later can spark a feeling, transport you back in time, and evoke such powerful emotions and memories. Giving the gift of spirit, love, and connection in a piece of art is truly what I love most about what I do. Photographs are like time machines, mini nostalgic time capsules that keep giving back over time.

I'm excited for the opportunity to take the best picture of YOU that you have ever seen! I welcome ALL families, and hold space for all individuals, family dynamics, as well as those with special needs.

I look forward to meeting and photographing your family!

“I see love, beauty, and magic all around me - in life and in people- and I try to convey that through my images.”
