We cannot thank Lindsay enough for capturing our wedding with such care. From her artful attention to detail, to the warmth and positivity she brought to the weekend, we could not have imagined a better photographer. Her photos are magical—they somehow manage to capture not just how the day looked, but how it felt. Each time we look at these photos, we are transported back to the day—Lindsay managed to bottle up all of the emotions we experienced in such a special and authentic way. We are so excited to relive our wedding through her gorgeous work. Beyond her remarkable skill, we are so grateful to Lindsay for her gracious and collaborative approach throughout the planning process. As we developed our wedding plans, Lindsay was super responsive, patient with our questions, and even went above and beyond to advise on various aspects of our aesthetic vision. On our wedding day, she and her team were a calming and subtle presence, making everyone feel comfortable, particularly folks—like ourselves—who are not used to being in front of a camera. Her kindness and professionalism made us and our guests feel completely at ease. Thank you, Lindsay, for being a wonderful partner!
After using Lindsay for our engagement shoot, we decided to book her for our destination wedding too! As someone who feels a bit shy in front of the camera, Lindsay made me (and my wife) feel comfortable, beautiful and relaxed throughout our shoots. By the end of the night, she and her second photographer felt like family.
She’s also extremely talented and has a gorgeous eye for detail. Our photos came out absolutely breathtaking, and we will be cherishing them for years to come! Do yourself a favor and book her — you won’t regret it!
Lindsay is unbelievable. Photography was at the top of our priority list, and choosing Lindsay was hands down the best decision we made. My husband and I feel so lucky that we were able to have her on our wedding day. Her talent for capturing genuine moments of connection and romantic candids is unmatched. Lindsay has a gift for working with light and movement that brought our photos to life in the most stunning way.
Beyond her talent behind the lens, Lindsay is one of the kindest souls you'll ever meet. She brings such a calming, positive, comfortable presence to every moment, which was a godsend for us on our wedding day. She made us feel comfortable and relaxed, allowing us to be ourselves in front of the camera.
Our wedding photos are beyond anything we could have imagined. Lindsay captured the most special moments with such authenticity and emotion, especially those featuring our family members and grandparents, which we'll cherish forever.
If you're considering Lindsay for your wedding photographer, stop your search right now! She exceeded our expectations with both our engagement shoot and wedding, and there's no doubt we'll be returning to her for future milestones. Thank you Lindsay!!
We had an amazing time working with Lindsay as our wedding day photographer! She and her team were incredibly professional and made us feel so comfortable and at ease in front of the camera. Lindsay was incredibly attentive and made time for us with an informational FaceTime when we were first discussing our wedding day plans/vision with her and then another call a week out from our wedding to confirm logistics. We loved Lindsay's photographic style and editing - she captured our day beautifully and we will cherish these for years to come! It was absolutely amazing and appreciated that she was able to share around 60 highlight photos with us within a week of our wedding! These definitely tided us over until the rest of our wedding gallery was delivered a few months later with the kindest, most heartwarming message from her. Thanks so much Lindsay!!!
Photography was very important to us, and hiring Lindsay was easily one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. She was professional and knowledgeable, but she is also the LOVELIEST human and was so easy to work with. She made everyone at our wedding feel so comfortable, and even those in our bridal party who hate having their photos taken found the process effortless. Lindsay considered our every want and need, and when we got our final photos, my husband and I couldn't stop showing them off! She offered the perfect mix of traditional photos and candids, and every picture was full of the emotion of the day. We cannot thank her enough!!
We got married in June 2022 in Bristol, RI and had the ABSOLUTE PLEASURE of having Lindsay and her husband Tim as our wedding photographers. We first connected with Lindsay in winter of 2020 and immediately knew she was the photographer for us - not only is she extremely talented (her incredible work speaks for itself!!!!) but she has the most calming, positive presence which was something we 100% needed for our wedding day. We were also lucky enough to have Lindsay take our engagement pictures - meeting in person and getting to know each other before the wedding was so crucial and further confirmed that we made the perfect choice to have Lindsay as our photographer. She made us feel comfortable right away and when the wedding day came it was like we got to see an old friend!!! After explaining to Lindsay our unique family dynamic, she understood immediately and reassured us that she would take the lead on our wedding day and boy did she EVER!!! We were (and are) so grateful to have had her and Tim by our side all day - Tim in particular made the groomsmen feel comfortable in front of the camera while they were getting ready (which is no easy feat...) and coordinated getting the groom to the first look spot right on time (also no easy feat...). Don't hesitate and book Lindsay ASAP - you will not regret it!!! Best people to work with, best pictures, and the best day all thanks to the Hackneys!
Just wow. Lindsay is incredible. Absolutely don't hesitate in hiring her. She did our engagement photos and wedding photos. She made it so much fun for us. She is directive, funny and quick--- we didn't need to spend all day taking photos--- She got great pictures fast and limited how much time we needed to spend doing staged photos. We wanted more candid photos which she is fantastic at. We love every single photo. Thank you!
This review won’t ever be enough to match our gratitude for Lindsay and her husband Tim! I was taken with their understated, elegant photography style from the start and photography was a top priority for me. Yet their capture of our day still beyond surpassed expectations, from their skillful use of lighting to the homework they did on our venue.
also seamlessly blended in with our friends and family, helping everyone have a fun, memorable experience. My husband and his friends nearly made Tim an honorary groomsman with how well he fits in on the day, while Lindsay acted as a wedding sidekick and co-planner, helping everything go off without a hitch given she has seen it all!
Additionally, navigating a wedding through a pandemic, Lindsay was gracious and flexible, communicating with the utmost professionalism amidst things no one could have expected, certainly not small business owners.
150% recommend working with this elegant, down-to-earth, talent team.
Lindsay is AMAZING!!! My now husband and I met Lindsay when we first got engaged and began exploring wedding photographers. We had a Zoom meeting with Lindsay and instantly knew she was the photographer for us. She was so friendly, engaged, experienced and thoughtful in her approach. We were so lucky that she was available for our July 2022 wedding and booked her as soon as possible! We did our engagement photos with Lindsay in the Fall of 2021 and meeting her in person for these reaffirmed what we found in our first Zoom meeting with her, she was so easy to be around, to work with and instantly made us feel comfortable. We had a blast taking our engagement pictures with her in some of our favorite and most special spots in Boston. As we worked on wedding planning throughout 2022, Lindsay was always available and super responsive if we had questions, asked for her advice, etc. She helped us think through many important elements of our wedding day such as our first look, our private vows plans, wedding party elements, etc. She was a great resource to us throughout the entire planning process. On the day of the wedding, Lindsay made me feel at ease and completely comfortable with all aspects of our wedding photos. She suggested specific shots/locations/etc. but in general just wanted us to be ourselves and natural and she was there to capture every moment of that. She even suggested a private moment for me to read a letter that my husband wrote to me on the wedding day and facilitated clearing out of the bridal suite so I could have that alone moment. At the time it seemed like a small action but in hindsight it was little things like that, that will be memories of special moments for me for years to come. Lindsay was such a pleasure and joy to work with and her work is AMAZING. We are in awe of our sneak peeks from the wedding just a few weeks ago (that Lindsay cranked out just days after the wedding!) and cannot wait to see the rest. I would 100000% recommend Lindsay as your photographer! Thank you Lindsay!!
When looking for a wedding photographer, I knew Lindsay Hackney Photography was my perfect fit when every photograph I admired on Instagram turned out to be hers. Hiring Lindsay was a bit of a splurge for our wedding budget, but it was an excellent decision and well worth it. Her photographs are absolutely stunning, deeply romantic and artistic and incredibly personal. She is also one of the kindest and easiest to get along with vendors that I hired, and she put everyone at ease while photographing. I had the pleasure of working with her for our engagement photo session, our small pandemic wedding ceremony, and finally our big day, and in each case she delivered photographs that will be indispensable keepsakes for our family. I'm so glad we decided to work with Lindsay and I truly hope to work with her again in the future.
We chose Lindsay as a photographer for our wedding after seeing some samples of her work, and we couldn’t have been happier! Lindsay was responsive, professional, and flexible. She helped me with the timeline and day of was efficient when capturing all family and bridal party photos. She turned around the gallery quickly, and we were stunned with how beautiful our photos turned out! She captured the day and special moments perfectly, and we couldn’t have been happier
Lindsay did my engagement photos:
1- She was so easy to work with and very professional. I told her my vision and she helped me capture it.
2- Her editing skills are incredible, arty and very tasteful. She works beautifully with light and movement.
3- Her prices were very reasonable for the quality of work.
I would highly recommend!
Lindsay was amazing to work with! She was so personable and professional and completely captured the dream wedding/engagement photos!
There are truly not enough words to describe how amazing Lindsay is!! My husband and I are scrolling through our digital album of photos and are in awe of how well she captured the love of our day not only between the two of us, but also with everyone else at the wedding. Not to mention, she is quite literally a master of lighting and was able to highlight the beauty of our venue perfectly.
If you're lucky enough to score Lindsay for your wedding, you won't just be getting great photos. You'll be getting a great sidekick for your entire wedding day! She did such a great job managing family members that were adding a little tension to the morning and hustled everyone around for group photos with such grace.
200/10 recommend Lindsay! If you're to prioritize ANY vendor for your big day, it should be her.
When we started this whole wedding process in the summer of 2019 we thought we had plenty of time. Our wedding wasn't until October of 2020. It was difficult to find a photographer...to say the least! We knew the photographer would need to be one of the first vendors to hire knowing they get booked so early on in the planning and they need to be the RIGHT photographer, not just any photographer. Through referrals we found Lindsday. And we are so lucky to have had Lindsay as our photographer!
From the very beginning she was communicative and personable, kind and good-hearted, literally the sweetest person. We immediately set up our engagement photo shoot and she was super flexible with whatever availability she had, coordinating with our schedule and working with us from so far away. She got our photos back to us within a month and we were so happy with them. She made us look amazing, of course! We felt so comfortable with her by the end of the session it helped us to think about having her all around us on the wedding day and not being as self-conscious with cameras on us for the wedding.
We then focused on the big day ahead. Lindsay gave us so much insight in planning out the timeline of our day and working with how that best suited our vision for the day. She was THE complete resource on how to alleviate the stresses, solve any obstacles that would pop up, drive the schedule of the day, etc person for us. I imagine she is that way with all of her couples, but we definitely needed it. My fiance and I are project managers in the construction industry in NYC so planning is just natural for us...and used to managing high stress plans and logistics so the idea of letting that go and enjoying ourselves for just this day was a foreign concept to us but the key was hiring the right vendor for such a monumental day that made all the difference.
On the day of Lindsay was professional and focused. Being 8 months pregnant she pulled some pretty impressive moves during our Photo Expedition! She was able to coral our family members like no other; keeping as close to our timeline as possible. She suggested swooping us away before joining our guests for cocktails to get those perfect sunset photos. We were not disappointed. We received our photos a few weeks ago and have been going through the gallery over and over. We love them. They are really well organized and soooooo romantic. We can relive the day everytime we look through them. The difficulty will be in choosing a limited number of photos for our album! Lindsay, everything came out amazing, we can't thank you enough!
If you are reading this review on Lindsay’s page, stop searching immediately, and start praying that she is available on your date! She did our engagement shoot AND our wedding, and we’ll be back for more in the future. We knew that when we chose her as our photographer, it would be one of the best decisions we would make for our day, but we couldn't have truly known how amazing our experience with her AND our photos would be. The photos themselves are absolutely stunning. If you haven’t yet checked out her Instagram, do it! As if that’s not reason enough to choose Lindsay, the experience itself was a blast. Lindsay made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera, which was something my wife and I BOTH were worried about. Instead, her calming presence and great sense of humor helped us to instantly relax and actually have fun. For our wedding planning during COVID, she remained completely flexible, managing the twists and turns with total grace. In fact, she was the one keeping US calm and optimistic. Not to mention she was amazingly good natured with our friends/family who had oh so many suggestions for our wedding photos! Unsurprisingly, all of our vendors, most of whom already knew and admired Lindsay, were thrilled to know that they would have the chance to work with her, and everyone was singing her praises again at the end of our event too. In case it’s not yet clear, we absolutely cannot recommend Lindsay enough!!!
LINDSAY HACKNEY IS AMAZING! Do not hesitate if you are thinking Lindsay Hackney... DO IT! She is as incredible IRL as she is through her art and talent! Her photos and artistic view are breathtaking! What a dream!
A total treasure
Changes due to Covid meant that Lindsay was no longer able to travel to photograph our wedding this year, BUT Lindsay took our engagement photos and she is in every sense of the word AMAZING, AMAZING, AMAZING. She is a joy to be around and a total artist. Her presence is calming, sweet, and joyful. You can't go wrong.
We were blown away by Lindsay. Photography was one of the highest priorities for our wedding. Before meeting Lindsay and Tim, their photos spoke for themselves. Upon meeting them, we found them professional, friendly, calm, and fun to work with. They did their homework, worked with us in advance, prepared for the lighting of our particular venue, and were communicative and appreciative of our other vendors. On the day of the wedding, they created a light, fun, and organized atmosphere, kept a low profile all day long while documenting all aspects of the event, and ultimately made a set of incredibly artful photographs that captured the spirit, emotion, and energy of our wedding day. We couldn’t be happier -we highly recommend having them on your wedding team!
I can’t recommend Lindsay Hackney enough. From our first conversation, we knew Lindsay was our photographer. We had searched through countless portfolio’s and Lindsdays photos were consistent, felt natural, and her colors were beautiful (and perfect for our fall wedding!). As a VERY organized person, I appreciated how organized Lindsay was. Her planning docs helped put us at ease that she knew what she was doing. On the day of the wedding she helped keep us on track by making sure our other vendors were watching the time. We flew through family photos, because she knew how to wrangle 20 people and get multiple photos lined up at the same time. The kids were actually looking at the camera - which is a small miracle. We loved Lindsay’s upbeat and can-do attitude. Our photos were exactly what we wanted, and beautifully captured our wedding day.
We feel so lucky to have gotten Lindsay to shoot our wedding! She was able to completely capture our relationship and gave us photographs that are beyond gorgeous! She is a true professional and made us feel so comfortable and at ease through the whole process. We could not be happier!
Hiring Lindsay was the best and easiest decision in wedding planning! Being a portrait photographer myself, it was the hardest decision to choose a photographer. Lindsay's calm, fun, and confident nature drew us to her. When we shot our engagement photos Lindsay made the session so fun! Leading up to wedding day she helped organized our first look and totally went with the flow making all of our formals and bride/groom portraits enjoyable for everyone! Her husband Tim was a joy to have around as well (especially those dance moves hehe). Do yourself a favor and hire Lindsay for your wedding, she wont disappoint. Lindsay and Tim, thank you for capturing our big day and being invested in us!!
Lindsay Hackney is simply incredible at what she does. From the moment my husband and I connected with her, we knew she was the only person we wanted to photograph our wedding. She and her husband are so fun, personable, thoughtful, and patient. On the day of the wedding, they made all of us feel comfortable in front of their cameras, and it felt like we were old friends who had known each other for ages. Lindsay knew that we had wanted photos in the venue's surrounding forest, so they snuck us away for a quick session at just the right time during the reception, fitting into the flow of the night perfectly. She captured all the little moments that made the day so wonderful. The resulting photographs are soft, romantic, and absolutely stunning; exactly what we wanted and more. Working with Lindsay will be one of the best choices you make for your wedding. Thank you Lindsay!!!
When we began planning our wedding, choosing the right photographer was at the top of our list of priorities. As someone who truly loves photography and wanted a genuine connection with the photographer, I could not have been happier to have Lindsay and her awesome husband Tim taking photos for our big day. Leading up to the day, Lindsay was consistently available to communicate, helped making planning a destination wedding feel simple, and was completely organized. She rolls with the punches, brings a total sense of calm even when you can't figure out how to get your veil on or your timeline changes, and we truly felt she put us as a couple first. Not to mention her photos speak for themselves. She captured the real, in-between moments that we will cherish forever along with the little details, candids of guests, personality pictures, and formal family photos that will hang in frames for years to come. It was a long day with lots of moving parts and they never missed a beat, kept us smiling and the photos are truly incredible keepsakes. We would 100% recommend Lindsay over and over and added bonus if her husband Tim is her second shooter- they make a great team, are truly gifted artists and insanely kind. Thank you again Lindsay!
As a wedding photographer myself, I had very high expectations out of the person who photographed my own wedding. I researched photographers all over the country, but ended up right back in New England reaching out to Lindsay! She is not only one of the most kindhearted people I know, but she excels at what she does in so many ways.
Lindsay provided us with so much assistance on how to best approach our experience with her, even helping my husband pick out his outfit for the day! She helped with timeline planning, choosing vendors, and coordinating colors. Hiring Lindsay is like hiring a friend that you can bounce ideas off, seek insight from, and talk Big Brother strategy with, all while she keeps a calm, organized, and gentle demeanor that makes her such a professional.
Our elopement was short and sweet, but in that time, Lindsay captured so many moments that I didn't even realize were happening, but now I have them printed to keep forever. There's really nothing better than having someone there with you on your best day that you know you can entrust with such precious memories. I can't thank Lindsay enough for everything she's done for us, and I'm very excited to work with her again in the future.
We can't say enough great words about Lindsay! From the moment we had our first call with her, we knew we wanted her to be a big part of our wedding day. Lindsay was very communicative throughout the whole planning process and was always there to help answer our questions no matter how big or small! We are so happy we got to do a pre-session with her before the big day because it truly made us feel at ease and ready to go for the wedding day! Lindsay and Carolina were there with us on our wedding day photographing every element of our wonderful day and we could not be more happy with the quality of photos they delivered to us. My husband and I both have creative backgrounds and we were thrilled to see all of our handmade details Lindsay captured from around the venue on the wedding day. We opted out of having a videographer because photos are more meaningful to us and we could not be more happy with our decision to have Lindsay capture our wedding day for us - we truly have the most beautiful images to hold onto for a lifetime. We highly recommend Lindsay for all future brides and grooms - she is simply a dream to work with!
Would give more stars if I could. Perfect and talented and professional and awesome!!! Her work speaks for itself.
Part of me wants to keep Linsday all to myself, and part of me wants to scream about her amazing talent from the rooftops. She captured the most amazing, candid, beautiful moments at our wedding that are just out of this world. I feel so thankful that I was able to book her, and I know you are lucky enough, you will too.
Lindsay has a really beautiful way about her that makes you feel instantly comfortable, which is VITAL for someone like me that is super camera shy. During the actual events, she is not at all intrusive and almost fades into the background. Photography is so natural for her that you'll worry if she's getting all the right shots, and when you see the pictures your jaw will hit the floor.
Where do I even begin?! Book her ASAP! Lindsay was absolutely fantastic and went above and beyond every moment we were together. She is sweet as can be, clearly love love loves what she does and made us feel so comfortable even though taking pics wasn't the most natural thing in the beginning for me and my husband. She gave us easy pointers that helped captured us so perfectly - anyone would be lucky to have Lindsay along side them on their wedding day. She had a tough task of photographing us at the end of April, with nothing in bloom, and totally embraced the city of Boston as our backdrop and it was so special. I had so many moments I wanted to remember and she got everything and then some!
Hiring Lindsay to photograph our wedding was the best decision we could have made. First of all, if you have seen her work then you already want to have her as your photographer because it is impeccable, romantic and breathtaking. On a much more personal level, she is an absolute gem of a woman who truly listens to what you are hoping to acheive from your photos on your big day. Working with Lindsay felt like working with a very dear friend. There were 20 of us in our party... yes, 20, and she worked with all of us so beautifully and the shots are epically gorgeous!! We had a winter wedding, I asked Lindsay to keep the look moody and romantic and she truly heard me and gave us the photos of our dreams. She made sure each shot I wanted with a particular person or in a certain spot was taken but more importantly, she captured the candid moments that make the day so special. Not only did she deliver on the photos beautifully but she was able to help me make decisions about makeup, hair, flowers, aesthetics of the ceremony, everything! She understood our vision and helped us bring it to life and we are so grateful! Do yourself a favor and hire this incredible lady!
We got married in September 2017 and started looking for a photographer in the fall of 2016. We spent months researching different photographers all over New England before selecting Lindsay. From our first phone call with her, we knew that she would be the best person to photograph our wedding day. She has an eye for detail and capturing special moments and her pictures are simply stunning. But beyond her magazine worthy esthetic, she's also such a dream to work with. She has an extremely soothing and calming prescence but she gives very clear guidance and direction, especially during stressful moments, with a big group of people. We had Lindsay capture our engagement photos, rehearsal dinner photos, wedding photos and we were so pleased with her work, we're hiring her again to do another shoot for our one year anniversary. We couldn't recommend her more and can't thank you enough Lindsay for giving us these gorgeous pictures that we'll cherish forever!
When you click 5 stars on The Knot, the caption says "Wow, the best ever!" and that is exactly what Lindsay is. From our first conversation on the phone she immediately understood our vision for the day, and I absolutely knew we had to book her for our wedding.
Lindsay has an amazing energy, and it's one of the first things you notice about her. It sounds silly, but a photographer spends as much (or maybe even more) time with a couple as they spend with each other on their wedding day, so you want someone who you can stand to be around. Lindsay fits that bill and so much more. She is kind and gentle, yet high energy when you're just about ready to fall over from all the running around of the day, and she puts you at ease as she gets amazing photos. She also can easily manage large groups and got all the shots my husband and our families needed on our wedding day, which is something we hadn't thought about beforehand, but thank goodness Lindsay was able to coach our crazy group into getting amazing photos.
She also captured so many moments and details that we would never have seen on our own. Looking through our wedding photographs, we feel like guests getting to experience our wedding all over again with the all the amazing moments she captured.
I cannot recommend Lindsay enough. We feel like we're looking at a magazine every time we see our photos. Any couple would be beyond lucky to have Lindsay as their wedding photographer.
My wife and I are in LOVE with our wedding photos! We cannot say enough good things about Lindsay as a photographer. She's so artistic and hard working. She captured our wedding in such a beautiful and unique way and we honestly couldn't be happier. She's flexible and energetic, and such a sweet person. We are SO happy we found her on Instagram. Her packages are very reasonable and worth so much more than the monetary investment anyways. We highly recommend Lindsay to every couple looking for a wedding photographer!
