I first picked up a camera when I was only 13. I rode horses at the time and began my journey with photographing horses. Not long after, I joined a photography club in high school and got into surrealist self portraiture that I would share on Flickr and grew so much through that!

In college, I was accepted into an entrepreneurship program of only 40 students a year and had the opportunity to start my wedding photography business. I began photographing intimate beach weddings in the Florida panhandle, and then when I moved back to my hometown of Miami, I was able to pursue weddings full-time. After college, I was bit by the travel bug and traveled to 40 countries throughout my twenties. During that time, I also grew my business to include destination weddings and elopements and shot in places like Iceland, Greece, Mexico, Colombia, Alaska, Yosemite, and more! 

In August of 2022, I was diagnosed with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and had to stop
taking on "big" weddings decided to focus my energy into elopements which are gentler on my body. In 2023, I made the move to Chattanooga and have fallen in love with this granola city and can't wait to take you out in the mountains and capture your love!

Hey! I'm Donna.

Meet Brandon

Brandon is my amazing photography assistant and partner in life. He also happens to be the world's best hugger (I'm not kidding; you'll have to see for yourselves!) Brandon began assisting me a few years ago and you he will most likely be along for your elopement adventure. He will be the one behind the scenes helping me with gear, driving us around, and making sure that I have everything I need to focus on the two of you and get amazing photos!

When I got diagnosed with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, I had to stop photographing big weddings because I could no longer physically handle the job. But elopements were always where I had the most passion in the wedding industry and, with Brandon's help, I am able to continue doing what I love while having an invisible disability.
