MEET INGRID

I grew up in Trussville, Alabama. When I moved to Auburn for college, I met my now-fiance, Lane. I spend my free time hanging out with him and our dog, Fischer. I also enjoy mountain biking, reading next to a cup of hot chocolate, and taking photos of people.

I found a love for photography when I took a photojournalism class from my major. I then joined The Plainsman, our university's newspaper, and was quickly promoted to Photo Editor. 

My favorite photos are when people forget the camera is there. In these moments, I'm able to capture true emotion. To achieve this, I develop close relationships with my clients so they see me more as a friend rather than a photographer.

WHAT OTHERS SAY

"Working with Ingrid Schnader these past couple of years has been a delight. Not only is her work top-notch, she also has a refreshing attitude — a 'let’s-get-this-done' attitude as opposed to a 'I-can’t-do-this' stance. She was an exceptional photo editor for The Plainsman, and others who worked with her on campus would agree."

— Alec Harvey, Editorial Adviser, Auburn Student Media Group
