Lindsey

Bergstrom

Hello, I’m Lindsey. If you knew me 30 years ago, you would have found me in a darkroom that doubled as a saddle shop..

If you knew me 25 years ago, you would have found me working at the Smithsonian, helping archive collections—from 3D imaging of huge historic airplanes to tiny Women's Right to Vote pins. The highlight? Direct printing Edward Curtis 8x10s.

If you knew me 20 years ago, you would have found me pursuing my Master's degree, focusing on portrait-heavy documentary work: military spouses during deployment, World War II veterans, rural motherhood, and Welsh shepherds.

And if you know me now, you'll find me documenting my own children's lives, and despite all my artistic pursuits before, this phase of my photographic journey is my favorite.

As an artist, I'm drawn to documentary photography's boldness and truth-seeking while also finding a deep connection to intimate family portrait work. I'm always seeking that sweet spot where documentary meets fine art.

For almost ten years, I've been teaching online, helping photographers develop their vision—work as meaningful as creating my own images.
