    A little bit about me ... 

    We just welcomed our fifth child on June 11th, 2011 -- I now have one boy (9) and four girls (7, 4, 3 and baby!). Giving birth to my children in Maryland, Germany, Alabama and British Columbia has inspired my interest in birth. In 2008, I started pursuing certification as a doula and childbirth educator and am now certified through DONA International. I bought my first SLR camera in 1999 and have been somewhat obsessed with it ever since, spending entire afternoons photographing blossoms (or family members!) or taking classes through Vancouver Photo Workshops. Combining my interests in birth & photography has been a wonderful fit for me; I feel privileged to be able to support families throughout the transformative childbearing years -- and create professional photographic artwork that will forever document their experiences.

Mini Session Sneak Peeks

What I love about photographing families is the chance to witness some very special moments. Like this one …

And this one …

This one …

And this one.

And I love watching these little ones grow up. Like this little girl. Here they are two years ago …

Here’s baby A last year …

And look at them now!

Last year, baby J could have posed for photos all afternoon …

And this year, he wanted to run!

Here’s the W family last year …

And here they are this year!

And here’s the M family last year …

And look at these kids now …

Such a fun job I have …

What I’ve been up to this summer …

Not much: just having a baby and getting used to life as a family of seven.:)Looking forward to reconnecting with many of you during my next set of mini-sessions — September 10th, 2011!

Oh! And I got to take my nephew’s first photos this past week… He weighed in at only 4 lbs 1 ounce but he’s growing day by day and doing so well!

Jasmine Leslie - PERFECTION Dana! I love the picture with all your children. What an amazing family you have :)

NEW! Die-cut birth announcements

I am pleased to offer die-cut birth announcements beginning Fall 2011. I chose the sweet pea design for Clara’s birth announcement and was so pleased with how it turned out. Die-cut announcements can be substituted for regular cards as part of any photography package — ask me for details!

Baby Clara is here!

Clara June Dueck was born at home, surrounded by her family, on Saturday, June 11th, 2011 at 11:01pm. She weighed 8 lbs 2 ounces and was 20″ long. I’ll post some more photos later but right now, we are busy resting and baby-gazing… Thank you all for your emails and messages! We feel so blessed.
