A message from the heart ❤️

After 14 beautiful years, Red Poppy Photography is officially closing its doors.

This was not an easy decision, but I find myself deeply fulfilled by new chapters and pursuits that are calling me forward — and the time has come to step away from the camera professionally and embrace what's next.

What I will never step away from are the memories we created together.

To every family who came to the studio during those precious first days with a newborn… to every parent who trusted me to freeze a moment that would otherwise slip away… to every family who showed up for a family session at a local park— babies in tow, kids running wild, love everywhere — and let me tell your story: thank you. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.

Fourteen years of tiny fingers and first smiles. Fourteen years of growing families and milestone moments. Fourteen years of being trusted with the most sacred thing there is — your memories.

It has been the greatest privilege.

With so much love and gratitude,

Dana
