Donae is an amazing photographer. She has done our family pictures and individual photos of my daughter and we love both. She took her time during the shoots and was very patient. We will definitely book her again.

Donae was amazing!!! She took pictures of our entire family, with several different poses for each coupling. She is so easy to work with and the end results turned out better than I ever expected!!!!!! So thankful. And when I added a surprise proposal to the mix, she was more than happy assisting with coordinating!!! USE HER for your next photo shoot, you won’t regret it!

I did a boudoir photo shoot with Donae and my photos turn out amazing. Donae make you feel so comfortable and relaxed. She makes you feel like your old friends just catching up. She is by far the best photography I've met and worked with!!

Donae is a fantastic photographer. I met her at a wedding and fell in love with her work - and her personality instantly. I wanted a paparazzi style for our engagement and she was spot on! Our photos were incredible… and she said YES. I can’t wait to see how amazing she does with our wedding!

I had the most AMAZING DESERT SANDS photo shoot with Donae. We drove to California for the perfect sand dunes location, she brought a beautiful cover up in black and one in pink. I discussed exactly what I wanted and let me tell you, I felt so alive, empowered and sexy!

This location was purposely requested and I had researched and interviewed several photographers, I chose Donae for her careful eye and artistic strengths. She has a solid eye of capturing the moment.

I actually cried on the way home as I finally looked like the goddess I am!!! I will be going back to her for updated photos! She has so many fun ideas and she enjoys location photos!! We’ve got an idea for a Las Vegas shoot. Oh how I can’t wait to make that happen.

Thank you for your professionalism and your willingness to help bring my inner goddess out!!

Donae was amazing! We did a family shoot for Christmas, with our wild 2 year old! I was so grateful for the cute pictures she got of our daughter! Our daughter was constantly on the move and Donae had no problem capturing such sweet moments! We absolutely cherish our pictures, and would highly recommend her! She makes you feel instantly comfortable and is great at communicating and directing. ❤️

So I have two kids graduating this year and I wanted to get some graduation photos. I had seen Donae's work and I loved it. I asked her to take pictures of my kiddos. I was expecting just a few poses as it was my first Experience wiht a photo shoot. Donae took her time and made sure the sun was in the right place and the settings were perfect. My kids loved all their pictures. She made sure that our culture was exposed in every single picture. I am extremely pleased with the outcome of the pictures. I just cant express enough how professional, kind, and creative Donae is. I highly recommend her for all your picture needs. You will not be disappointed.

Donae is so much fun to shoot with and takes the time to put so much love into her imagery. With Donae, you get more than a photo. You get a true work of art. If you're not comfortable in front the camera, she knows what to say to make it fun and pull out the real and most amazing version of you.
