Lindsey “Lensy” Michelle’s approach to photography is rooted in curiosity, connection, and a deep appreciation for self-expression. She moves with the energy of a celebration, balancing instinct with subtle direction to create images that feel bold yet deeply personal.
Lindsey lives between Boston and NYC with her partner, Cole 🥰, but she is always happy to meet you where your story is best told.
OWNER & Lead photographer
Lindsey “Lensy” Michelle
(she/her)
When she is not taking photos, you can find Lindsey rock climbing, dancing bachata, or digging through ebay for colorful vintage finds. Both professionally and personally, she is drawn to people who value authenticity and unabashed expression of self.
Lindsey & Jullian
The duo!
Although my name’s on the marquee, “Lensy Michelle” has really been more of a duo since 2023. It took Jullian and I photographing about three weddings together to realize that we had hit on something really special. Our dynamic is comically like a husband and wife duo (so we've been told!), except we’re not husband and wife. 🤣 What we are is best friends who are better together – and we prefer to work that way for everything except the smallest of events. So, for almost all full-day or weekend-long weddings, we encourage you to hire BOTH myself and Jullian as a team of two co-lead photographers.
Jullian is also available to book as your lead photographer on dates when I am already booked OR if you’re interested in more accessible price options. Please reach out for more info about either of these options!

FAQ
My actual name is “Lindsey,” BUT since “Lindsey Michelle” was already a pretty popular name on the internet, I had to think of something a little more creative for my internet moniker when I made it almost a decade ago.👍🏼
“Lensy” is a (very bad) dad-joke about camera LENSes and how
"LENS-y" sounds like "LINS-y" 🙃 ...ANYWAY, I've been saying this for so long there's no un-doing it. Truly, you can call anything except "Michelle" which is absolutely not my name!
For digital work, I use a mix of Canon R5 and R6 mirrorless cameras, and for film, I roll with a Canon 1V at the helm and a rotating cast of other supporting film cameras.
For most weddings, I’ve got a 28-70mm f/2 on one camera and an 85mm f/1.2 on the other. On the dance floor, you’ll find me rocking a 15-35mm.
If you’re also a camera nerd and want to dive deeper into gear talk, I’ll happily oblige. But, I’ll spare you the technical talk unless you ask. 😊

Who wants photos of their drunk uncle from the side of the dance floor? (Not me!) My approach to your wedding day is to match the energy in each moment. So, when you move, I move, and when you dance badly, I dance... worse!🕺
🍑 Reggaeton and afrobeats will always get me on the dance floor. Do with that information what you wish.
