The Heart Behind
DAMINI PHOTOGRAPHY

Transforming moments into meaningful art across New England

Your story deserves to be art.

TRANSFORMING MOMENTS INTO MEANINGFUL LEGACIES

Every family album tells a story of belonging - a truth I discovered while piecing together my own journey. From my first moments in Maine after being adopted from India, photographs became more than images; they were windows into understanding where I belonged. Those cherished photographs helped me discover my place in my family's story, and now, I help New England families like yours create meaningful visual legacies that will tell your story for generations to come.

PSYCHOLOGY MEETS VISUAL STORYTELLING

I blend my unique perspective with professional expertise to create a safe, comfortable space for authentic moments. My background in psychology and current pursuit of a master's in social work aren't just credentials - they're tools that help me understand how to make you feel completely at ease in front of my camera. Whether we're capturing your intimate coastal wedding or documenting a multigenerational family session in the mountains, you'll never feel like you're performing - you'll be creating genuine memories that tell your true story.

WHERE PERSONAL MEETS PROFESSIONAL

When I'm not helping families preserve their precious moments, you'll find me creating my own stories across New England. I spend my days adventuring with my rescue pup Memphis on Burlington's trails, exploring the Green Mountains with my partner Clark, and seeking out the perfect cup of black coffee in local cafes. Between mountain adventures and Netflix marathons, I'm usually dreaming about chocolate cake for breakfast - because real life includes all these perfectly imperfect moments.

My approach to photography stems from this same belief in embracing life's authentic rhythms. I create welcoming spaces where every love story and family journey matters, taking time to understand the unique details that make your family special. Whether we're documenting quiet morning routines or celebrating milestone moments, my focus remains on crafting images that become treasured heirlooms while making every session feel like time with a trusted friend. Because in the end, it's about celebrating real connections and turning everyday moments into meaningful visual stories that last generations.

WHERE STORIES BEGIN TO UNFOLD

I'm Damini (pronounced DOM-uh-knee), and my journey with photography began through my own family's albums. As someone who discovered belonging through photographs after being adopted, I understand deeply how powerful visual storytelling can be. These images weren't just photographs - they were windows into understanding my place in this world, bridges connecting my past to my present.

This personal experience has shaped how I approach every session, driving my commitment to creating meaningful visual legacies for New England families like yours. Because I know firsthand that the right photograph can become more than just an image - it can be a touchstone of belonging, a catalyst for connection, and a bridge between generations.

Let's Connect

"We hired Damini to capture our wedding day and we could not he happier! "

Damini has been very responsive, answering our emails and texts making sure all of our questions are answered. So far we have had the most amazing engagement photo shoot. Damini hiked with us just under a half mile to capture the views at an incredible lookout. We ended our shoot at a lake where Damini embraced our silly side as we took many water photos (in jeans!). We cannot wait for her to capture our wedding day!

- Karissa & Matt

"Damini truly captured the essence and love that my partner and I have for each other."

We have never been very comfortable in front of the camera, but the results she gave back to us shocked us! We have many favorites from our engagement shoot to choose from that will have to feature so many of them at the wedding!

- Erin & Olivia

"Damini really made this experience overall amazing, words really don't do enough justice for the work she does."

Damini's talent and positive presence made our wedding day truly special. From our engagement shoot to the final images, she captured the genuine emotions and natural moments that we will cherish forever.
