About
Hi! I'm Dorothy, and I'm passionate about helping people remember special moments of their life. From an engagement to announcing your pregnancy, the perfect tininess of your newborn, or even just a family hike - and anything in-between. I would love to help you capture some of these moments, while making new ones along the way!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Pricing varries based on individual needs and session type.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I enjoy meeting new clients and hearing about their ideas for their session.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I started photography as a hobby. I used to travel a lot. I wanted to remember all of my adventures in a meaningful way. I taught myself about photography techniques to better capture things the way that I experienced them. When our family expanded, I learned a whole new set of techniques so I could continue this with my new growing family.
