You're the main character in this story, let's document it in the best way
Photographs are truly powerful. It's almost magic, really, to be able to hold time still on paper. You deserve a skilled artist behind the lens and my promise is to be that person for you.
Welcome, friend
Call me Dotti
Professional memory keeper and all-around sensitive soul; inspired by soft romantic vibes and the nostalgia of film.
I love what I do. I live to capture the beauty in this life and I am forever chasing the most authentic way to translate it through the camera. The arts and I have always been close. I am a dancer, a musician, and a teacher and I utilize every nuance to sharpen my skill.
My APPROACH IS SIMPLY THIS:
translating what I see into art you can feel
What does it mean to feel a photo? It means intentionally photographing a day how it was and not over-editing or changing the look for trendiness sake. It's the true-to-life haze of a sunset, so much so that you squint even though it's a photograph. It's the twinkle of the candles in the dark or the close up image as you walk, hand in hand. The inclusion of small details add to the ambience of your story and have the ability to take you back to that day, over and over again.
