As a lifelong Gamecock, there's nothing I love more than helping USC seniors celebrate this milestone with portraits on campus! My love for the University of South Carolina runs deep — my dad played football here in the late 50s, my mom was a cheerleader, and I met my husband on campus at USC. We’ve been season ticket holders and Gamecock Club members for over 30 years, so this place truly feels like home.
Senior portraits are such an important part of your big year — a way to capture your time as a Gamecock and create memories you’ll treasure forever. I specialize in natural, personality-filled portraits and will guide you through every pose so you feel confident and look your best. Your LLP Senior Experience starts the moment you reach out. You’ll receive my digital USC Grad Guide packed with tips, favorite campus locations, FAQs, pricing, and client stories to help you plan the perfect session. I can’t wait to celebrate this milestone with you and create images that reflect everything you’ve loved about your time at Carolina.
With a father who was a South Carolina football player and a mother a Gamecock cheerleader, I was destined to become a Gamecock! Now I'm a seasoned USC parent who's well versed with the Columbia area.
This puts me in the unique position to know the campus on many different levels and I have a good sense of what Gamecock Seniors are looking for when it comes to their senior photos.
A proven track record will give you peace of mind that you're working with a professional. Parents who live in another city or state can rest assured that their student's senior session will go as planned. Communication is key, and you'll be kept in the loop each step of the way, from booking to gallery delivery.
You'll receive the LLP Style Guide, reminders and tips to prepare for the session leading up to the big day. Questions or concerns? Simply shoot me a text and they'll be addressed promptly. With years of experience and hundreds of satisfied Gamecock Seniors, I'm proud to have made a name for myself as a highly recommended photographer on campus.
Since opening my business in 2016, I’ve photographed hundreds of USC seniors and spent countless hours perfecting my craft. I know campus inside and out - from the most popular spots like the Horseshoe and T Coop Fountain to hidden gems that make your session unique.
Years of experience mean I know exactly when the light is best, how to pose you naturally, and how to adjust quickly for weather or crowds so your session runs smoothly.The result? Bright, timeless images that celebrate your time as a Gamecock - and a stress-free session you’ll actually enjoy.
Get ready to laugh, feel pampered, and actually enjoy being in front of the camera. My posing approach uses natural movement, genuine laughter, and simple direction - so you never feel stiff or unsure of what to do. I’ll guide you every step of the way, helping you relax, look amazing, and let your personality shine.
We’ll mix classic portraits, candid moments, and creative shots that capture your confidence, personality and spirit. By the end, you’ll feel like a model and leave with not just gorgeous images, but fun memories of celebrating your time as a Gamecock.
Don’t worry, guys, I know how you feel about your session! I get it: you’re probably just doing this for Mom. That’s okay!
I promise to make your senior session quick, painless and even enjoyable for you. All LLP packages are customizable, so you can choose a 30 minute session, a two hour session, or anything in between!
My goal is that you not only walk away from our session saying, “That wasn’t so bad,” but to also say, “it was kinda fun!” I’ll work with you on posing for some cool looks and I'm always open for suggestions if you have something specific in mind. We’ll get the pictures that both you AND mom will love!
You deserve images that you'll treasure forever. That's why I strive to create images that reflect the true you. The most important thing: that you love your photos and enjoy the experience of taking them!

My daughter had a wonderful experience with her senior photo shoot. Lyndsey made her feel relaxed, confident, as well as beautiful! Not only were the photos exceptional, but we really had a great time during the shoot. Lyndsey spent so much time with us, offering great suggestions for poses, while also asking my daughter about photos and locations she had in mind. The photos that were taken truly captured the essence of who my daughter is and we will treasure them always. I would highly recommend Lyndsey Livingston Photography to anyone who is looking to authentically and meaningfully capture a special moment in time.

We have used Lyndsey for multiple graduations and all of our family’s special events. She gives us exactly what we want and always has new ideas to capture something special. Would not trust our memories with anyone else. We’ve worked with other photographers and she makes the experience stress free.

Lyndsey was AMAZING! Her photos were beautiful, she's fantastic with her communication, and she was very accommodating with our schedules, photo locations, and adjusting to weather complications. She was so great to work with and we'd absolutely use her again and recommend her to anyone looking for professional photos.
