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
