Hi there, I'm Mysti Baker, owner of Outside the Lines Photography.
Welcome to Outside the Lines Photography! I'm Mysti Baker, the proud owner of this unique photography studio. I'm an award-winning photographer, a devoted wife, a loving mother ( 3 human kiddos along with 2 pups and 3 cats). My journey into the world of photography was deeply inspired by my a card my mother wrote me years ago: "My darling girl, only dead fish go with the flow." This mantra has driven me to forge my own path, embracing the extraordinary in both life and my career.
In October 2020, I launched Outside the Lines Photography, breaking away from conventional norms to create a brand that celebrates authenticity and artistry. My mission is to capture raw, real moments that endure, transforming fleeting experiences into lasting memories.
Photography is both timeless and priceless. It captures fleeting moments, preserving them in a form we can cherish forever. Each photograph is a tangible reminder of the love, joy, and connections we experience, freezing time and allowing us to revisit those precious memories. In an ever-changing world, photographs provide a constant, a way to hold on to the moments that define our lives. They tell our stories, celebrate our milestones, and keep the essence of our loved ones close, even as time moves on. For generations to come, these images become a cherished inheritance, a window into the past that keeps our family’s legacy alive.
Investing in photography is investing in a treasure trove of memories that you and your family can enjoy today and for many years to come. This belief is at the heart of our work, which is why we offer heirloom-quality prints and albums, customized for each client. We ensure your images are not just digital files but cherished keepsakes that can be held, displayed, and passed down through generations. Invest in timeless photography that turns fleeting moments into priceless memories.
As a photographer, I am the keeper of moments: the good everyday moments running in a field with your loved ones; the rawness of loss; and the joyful moments of an empowerment session or welcoming a new life into your family through birth, adoption, marriage, and everything in between. I hold these moments in my hands, and I am just so thankful for the trust placed in me to tell a moment of your story.
XO,
Mysti

Mysti is a fantastically talented photographer and an equally amazing human. Her ability to capture the most authentic expressions from my family members (2 of which are teenage girls, so we all know how that can go) is something to be admired. I love how she listens to my desired outcomes and then uses creative and fun ways to capture us at our best (or silliest). If you are looking for repeatable work, fun and creativity, and overall amazing photography, Mysti is your girl.

Testimonials
This lady is freaking awesome! I had a shoot with a different photographer and didn’t get a SINGLE good photo from the shoot(partially due to weather). Mysti stepped up to the challenge of taking pics of my wild boys and was able to capture MANY awesome pics in only a 20 minute window! She edited them and got them to me in less than 24 hours! I will continue to use her over and over!
Mysti did an AMAZING job on our wedding photos. We didn’t have a traditional wedding, it was fun and with family and she brought that out in our photos. I’m so happy with them all. The editing is just what we wanted and she made it fun and easy for us even through all the spiders 😂❤️ definitely recommend! Minus the spiders of course.
Mysti comes highly recommend by me!
She is so fun and easy going and knows how to capture great moments 💕 I've had several shoots done with her and she's never been anything but very professional, patient, and easy to work with! Not to mention, she's now become a great friend because of the fun we have together in sessions!
Mysti is a natural! She was able to get some absolutely beautiful pictures of my family in under 20 mins! She is so much fun to work with and pays attention to all the small details that make a great shot. I can't wait to get more pictures done by her!
