It's been a while.... but I'm still here! Love these shots from a recent session with one of my favorite families! It's a honor to document family life and watch children grow up in front of my camera! I've been photographing these kiddos since they were babies. 🥰

Finally.... a new blog post!💓 I recently had the opportunity to photograph an insanely talented local musician! Links to his work and upcoming show are in the post. Check it out! His soul pop has a unique spin as he samples, loops, and layers his own voice and beats! His music is guaranteed to put a smile on your face and make you want to move your feet! 🎼🎸🎯

There are so many good things I could say about about The Reverend Doctor , a singer, songwriter, producer, and activist who hales from Iowa, but has made a home in Los Angeles as he continues to evolve in his music career. He’s not in it for fame. It is about fulfilling a higher calling for him.

I loved this Senior Session so much!! Dylan was a natural in front of the camera and it was great to reconnect with his mom who is a friend from high school! Do you know anyone graduating with the Class of '22 who still needs their portraits done? I'd love to help them make it happen!

Reaching way back into the archives.... This image was taken at my very first paid photoshoot. I photographed a hair stylist’s client whose locks she'd freshly cut. I remember being so nervous to charge for my work! It's been a wonderful journey since this day in a community park! I want to express my GRATITUDE for every individual, couple, and family who has hired me since and trusted me to create art with them!! Love and gratitude to each of you and to all who support me in other ways too, like following this page!! I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!!🧡☺ xo, dawn
