My name is Lindsey Dermody and I am the founder and photographer of To The Moon East Islip Photography.

I always had a passion for photography, however I initially began my career in Special Education teaching lower elementary school in Brooklyn and Queens. When my oldest daughter was born, I knew I had to figure out a way to be home more with her while still being able to pay my bills. During this time, I transitioned to Early Intervention, working with children on the Autism Spectrum and their families. I continued to grow my knowledge and skills in photography using my daughter (and our Labradoodle!) as my models.

What started out as a passion and a hobby has grown and developed into so much more. My goal is to be able to offer sessions to you, my fellow moms and dads of Long Island, at a reasonable rate. As a mom of 3 little ones I am the first to tell you, the nights may be long but the days are so short and our children grow way too fast. It is imperative we catch these moments now while they are still young. Using my knowledge of child development, patience and understanding for young children and my love for capturing "the moment", I am able to provide you with photos you will look back on for years to come. I look forward to working with you and your families!
