Who are you?

I am a dog lover, friend, daughter, neighbour, people lover, artist, teacher, nature lover, helper, giver, country girl at heart, smiler, photographer, cisgender, always learning, I am Wendy D, (She/her)

What do you do?

I freeze moments in time as I see them before me. I listen, see and feel what and who is around me. I interpret and orchestrate light, shadows and emotion. I listen to people’s ideas, passions, hopes, fears, goals, and help them see the truth in who they are. I help them find their voice and give them space to use it.

I am ready to take on new projects, create positive experiences with more people, give space to the voices that need to be heard, create real, truthful images of those who allow me the honour of doing so, help others achieve their goals and dreams, above all continue to smile, spread joy, love, and gratitude for this amazing adventure called life.

Why do you do what you do?

I do what I do because it’s who I am.  Photography is my voice.
