Meet Desirée
Hi, I’m Dee. The heart behind Photos By Dee. Your go-to gal for documenting love stories, wild little ones, growing bumps, big “I do’s,” and everything in between. I’m based in Los Angeles & Orange County (literally right on the border of both), but you’ll usually find me chasing sunsets, third-wheeling with cute couples, or giggling behind the camera while capturing pure magic. I photograph weddings, lovers, lifestyle moments and anyone celebrating their big, bold, beautiful life.
PORTFOLIO
Recent work
I’m obsessed with catching the stuff you’ll want to relive. The soft touches, the loud laughs, the can’t-believe-this-is-my-life kind of moments. If you’re looking for someone who’ll cheer you on, help you feel confident in front of the camera, and deliver photos you’ll want to frame everywhere… hi, it’s me.
Real moments,
Romantic vibes.
You, being fully YOU.
Photos that feel like you... and only you.
No matter the setting, I bring warmth, intention, and artistry to every story I capture.

"I will never look elsewhere when I need a photographer."
there are so many good things that I could say about Desiree Photos By Dee. Her bubbly, happy energy really makes you feel so confident and comfortable. She really brings your vision to life with every photo she takes, and just overall every picture she takes is amazing. I have now had three sessions with her My engagement photos, wedding photos, and just recently my newborn daughter’s photos. I will never look elsewhere when I need a photographer. You could really see her passion for what she does and goes above and beyond for her clients. Desiree you truly are the best, and I couldn’t thank you enough for all the wonderful photos that I get to cherish forever. Hire Desiree for your next photo needs you will NOT be disappointed.
