Creating memories to last a lifetime….

                                         

My husband and I dated for 5 ½ years before we finally tied the knot. In December of 2007 I received a beautiful proposal and we decided that we wanted a fall wedding. We set the date for September 20, 2008, and plans were big. During this time we also decided to begin building a house. In July the stress, financial and personal, had gone from a mole hill to a mountain and my father offered us the money that he had planned to use for our wedding if we would just settle for a small intimate ceremony. This would relieve financial stress along with ‘big wedding’ stress. We decided that this was the best decision for our future. In an attempt to save money we cut the budget which hindered our choice of photographer, so we began an exhausting search for one. After getting quotes from three other photographers we finally settled on one. I still wasn’t completely satisfied with our choice because we weren’t getting much for our money, and then Dawn miraculously came into the picture about a week before the wedding. Since she is friends with my sister-in-law we were introduced, by email, and she customized a package for us. It was a great deal and I was confident that it would all work out. Our wedding was perfectly flawless, and Dawn definitely contributed to the outcome. She was patient, efficient, and not at all disruptive. I’ve been to weddings where photographers get in the front of the wedding and disrupt the intimacy of the ceremony, but that was not the case. She also was very patient with us as she posed the families. I understand that it can get frustrating especially with children and large families (which we have). Dawn was not rude or short with anyone. She was patient and friendly. We could not have asked for a better photographer. We had a lot of stress leading up to the wedding, but having a photographer that was friendly and did great work definitely made the day much more enjoyable and relaxing. We really appreciate her work and her kindness. She definitely helped us capture memories that will last a lifetime. Thank you!

We used Dawn for our pregnancy photo session. Our session had so many wonderful, creative pictures I cannot narrow it down to one picture in particular.  Since our session was a pregnancy shoot, it was very intimate. Many of our shots we partially nude and we felt very comfortable with Dawn. Her creative input was wonderful when it came to posed shots as well as candid ones.  We ordered the CD since we wanted to share the pictures with many out of town relatives.  Dawn has a wonderful magnetic personality and was extremely professional. These qualities not only made us feel comfortable but made for a memorable experience that she was able to capture for us to enjoy a lifetime. --Tavia

 

We were so happy with all of our shots but one of my favorites is a window shot of our heads touching in black and white.  She was very easy going and knew how to capture the moment.  We've only completed the engagement session thus far. We have selected a package that includes a photo alblum.  Dawn is really skilled in what she does but this fact doesn't overshadow her clients. As a result she's patient, accommadating and fun to work with. -- Niki
 
 
My favorite picture is a candid shot of three generations of our family seated during the wedding. Beautiful and unexpected!  Dawn has a way of keeping things organized and orderly without being pushy. She was very good at catching the best moments and also posed pictures that still show true emotion and personality.  We were all very comfortable posing and felt confident she would get great shots regardless. --Jana

A Note From Dawn....

Thank you to everyone that sent me their feed back about my services.  Photography touches everyones lives in a very personal and unique way.  I like to think that its not about the number of breaths we take, but about the number of moments we have in our life that take our breath away.  Its an honor to have the opprotunity to capture some of those moments for my clients.  Photography is my passion - and each of you have given me the opprotunity to serve.  Thank You!
