Photographer + Creative Director

Lindsey Byrnes is an American photographer and creative director known for her work in the music and entertainment industries.

Her career began shooting her peers in the California skate scene while working for Thrasher Magazine. Through her tenacious drive and natural talent, Byrnes quickly established herself as a sought-after photographer in the music industry, which led her to directing music videos, designing album covers, and going on tour with acts like Paramore, Tegan & Sara, fun. and others. She then quickly evolved from music into shooting editorial and advertising campaigns for publications and brands such as Chanel, Harper’s Bazaar, Hard Rock Hotels, and many more.

Her art has appeared at Art Basel and featured in Juxtapoz and at Sotheby’s.

Perpetual innovation and staying current with evolving trends is what separates Byrnes from many of her contemporaries.
