Lauryn Byrdy Photography_Lifestyle Family Photographer

Hi and thanks for visiting!

I’m Lauryn Byrdy (pronounced “birdie”). I live in Columbus, Ohio with my husband, Matt, and our two Maltese pups, Milo and Murphy. I capture life moments through photography. Real moments, fun moments, the simple life moments that can’t be created with a perfectly posed shot.

The concept of Lifestyle photography means what it sounds like. These shots depict real life situations. It takes place outside or in your favorite or most commonly visited locations – like the backyard having a bbq, in the kitchen prep’ing for a party, at the park with the kids, or upstairs spending quiet time with your newborn. During a shoot, I’ll occasionally ask you to “go be you” in a particular place but the most important thing is that the essence of who you are is captured in every shot.

There are things in life that immediately put a smile on my face.
A picture of someone laughing.
Cucumbers with the middles cut out.
So many windows filling a room with sunlight.
Iced soy chai.
Tiny puppy paws.

Chances are you have a list like this, too. It’s a reflection of you. And that’s what a photo should be—a snapshot of your story and your personality. Leading up to your session or event I take the time to learn about your list, among other things (like styling and favorite locations). That’s what creates a great portrait experience.

Above all, I believe that every session should be fun. If we’re not both laughing or smiling (a true smile) by the end of our shoot, something isn’t right.

If you’re here because you’re looking for a photographer, I hope you got a taste of what I’m all about. But lets chat more over coffee…or an iced soy chai!

OH, and yes. Rumor is true. I WILL TRAVEL ANYWHERE.
