hello! i’m donya
Wife, mother, & photo editor
Hey there, I’m Donya (pronounced “Dawn-yah”)! Most days you can find me tucked away in my office, using my hands to craft, create, or edit beautiful images.
When I’m not giving all the heart eyes to gorgeous wedding images, you can catch me exploring with my two boys and adventurous husband. Hiking is our favorite family activity & I’m always itching for a visit to the mountains!
Back at home, I love to craft new home decor for our walls, sip wine on the patio, & attempt to keep a few house plants alive.
I work with amazing wedding photographers who are yearning for more time to work *on* their business than *in* it. I serve them with the gift of time as I take the photo editing off their plates.
I can’t wait to work with you!
get to know me
Five things you may not know…
- I have a degree in Meteorology. From the time I was seven, it was my dream to study weather. After having children, the odd work hours as a meteorologist got to me and I wanted the flexibility of working from home. But my love of weather will never die.
- I do handstands daily. As a shy kindergartner, my mom urged me to pick an activity and gymnastics was it. I was never amazing, but I don’t think a day has gone by that I haven’t practiced a handstand or cartwheel since.
- My wedding dress was only $100. And it was actually a bridesmaid dress from J. Crew. I loooooove staring at beautiful weddings all day, but for my own, we went super simple and low-key.
- I’ve lived at 14 different addresses in my lifetime and in five different states: Arizona, Minnesota, Texas, Alaska, and Oregon.
- Hiking is probably my favorite hobby. Give me a moderate climb to an alpine lake, and it’s a sure fire way to make me a happy girl.
