The Doerings
I love it when families are ready to have a fun afternoon taking photos!
I had a great time with the Doerings – they enjoyed jumping and running around and doing some dance moves at the Colonial Zone. If the photos of them dancing doesn’t make you smile, then I don’t know what will, cuz they are pretty dang funny.
The Doerings have been missionaries in this country for over 10 years now, so I’m glad to have the opportunity to photography them in this country that they call their home!
The Caslers
The Casler Family is a big family. A fun family. A sweet family.
I had the wonderful opportunity to take some portrait and lifestyle photos for them. Their backyard has a tree swing. And a see-saw. The kids all have their own skateboards. They love board games. So of course we had some fun!!!
The Simplicianos
Our friends, the Simplicianos,were about to leave Santo Domingo and wanted some family photos before they left. Their daughter, Sachiko, is a sweet spunky girl with lots of energy! We had a great time in the Colonial Zone. One of my favorite moments was when the monks and nuns were walking outside one of the churches and made it into the shots. Best wishes, Jeff, Traci, and Sachiko on your future adventures in Europe!
The Abrahams
It was a beautiful afternoon in Zona Colonial. I had the opportunity to photograph the Abraham family. The 2 girls had tons of energy, and it shows! There was an ice cream man walking around in Plaza Espana and near the end of our time together the girls were able to eat a little treat. Those were some of my favorite shots from our time together- who doesn’t love watching a happy kid eat some ice cream?
Gabi's 4th Peppa Pig Party!
Happy Birthday to Gabi!
I had the opportunity to take photos for this little girl’s “Frozen” birthday party last year and it was great to shoot her party this year as well!
I LOVE taking photos of little kids and their birthday parties. There is so much going on, so many expressions, so much excitement, so much JOY on their faces! And you can also see the LOVE between the parents and their little girl 🙂
One cool thing about children’s parties in the Dominican Republic is that there are often “emcees” that are in charge of children’s games. I think that is pretty neat. So at this party the “emcees” got the kids to dance and compete in games.. you can tell that the kids had A BLAST!
This year’s theme was PEPPA PIG, and little Gabi was surprised to see Peppa Pig show up at her party!
I hope you enjoy these photos as much as I enjoyed taking them!

The Armstrongs
The Armstrongs are missionaries who have lived in the Dominican Republic for a few years now. They have to be one of the most fun families I have ever taken photos of! They were so relaxed, easy to talk to, constantly making jokes and silly faces with one another… a photographer’s dream! I hope through my photos you can see how warm and loving this family is with one another.
The Bernotavicius Family
It was amazing to shoot a family session at this 500 year old Fort.
