ABOUT

LYDIA GILLIS PHOTOGRAPHY

Red lipstick, my homemade tacos and salsa, wearing boots and scarves with almost everything, red wine, chai lattes, outgoing and an urge to explore.  

what I'm known for:

but don't let that fool you, I 'm neither! i'm just an average girl that that wears a messy bun 90% of the time and loves to get her hands dirty in the garden. I love to travel and my goal is to photograph weddings across the world. I love the Northwest and all the natural beauty it offers. I love  waterfalls and go on nature hikes. I love to laugh, dance and sing. I can't carry a tune but who cares, I will still sing and then laugh at myself. I love to travel and immerse myself in the local culture and cuisine. 

I love fashion but I feel more comfortable in a t-shirt and ripped jeans.  I love pearls because they make me feel classy and elegant...

PORTFOLIO

My daughter, Cassie had her senior pictures taken by Lydia Gillis.  Lydia was extremely knowledgable about the locations we chose.  She knew the best backgrounds, and where the best lighting was based on time of day.  She looked at one particular spot and told Cassie to sit on the tall grass (on a blanket she had brought of course).  So spontaneous but she loved the light on the spot at that time.  My daughter and I had a great time with Lydia.  She is professional and fun.  She was able to get some incredible shots of my daughter laughing. Lydia had Cassie int the river posing and in order to get the shots she wanted shed had to take off her shoes and join Cassie in the river. She does whatever it takes to get the perfect shot.

Thank YOU so much for the awesome shoot! I loved how open you were to doing anything and wanted to get the absolute best shot from every location. You made things so much fun and let me make the most out of my shoot. Also, I love how you will see something and stop and make me pose in front of it, even if I didn’t see it myself. Your ability to make people laugh and have fun during the shoots is amazing! I will always remember this day. and I couldn’t be happier to have you as a photographer. 

THIS DAY!"
