Photos By Dee, LLC Hi! I’m Desirèe— a Whittier photographer! I specialize in family & wedding photography.

05/21/2026

A little transparency & vulnerability: behind the dreamy photos, booked weekends, the red camera & the dream career… there were also moments that tested me deeply— personally, emotionally, financially, and mentally.

I’ve gotten comments before like: “your life seems so perfect” or “you’re always so happy.”

& truthfully… I am a VERY “half glass full,” “everything happens for a reason,” always smiling kind of girl. The one hyping everyone else up, romanticizing life & showing up with love no matter what season I’m in.

BUT I also think social media can make it easy to assume someone’s life is perfect just because they share the beautiful moments.

This isn’t a pity post. It’s just a reminder that you truly never know what someone is navigating behind the scenes. ♥️

And maybe… a reminder to myself that continuing to show up through all of it is something to be proud of too.

It’s not luck.
It’s continuing to show up with love through every season. ♥️

Snagged another day here… hallelujah!! ♥️

This venue feels like stepping into a little storybook — slow mornings, barefoot babies, overflowing greenery, soft light pouring in through every corner. OBSESSED. ✨

These spring sessions are quickly becoming some of my favorite things to photograph lately. The in-between moments, the curiosity, the tiny hands, the chaos that somehow still feels so tender & beautiful all at once. ✨

Forever documenting the soft little moments that end up meaning everything. ♥️

An opportunity opened up for an extra date here after having a waitlist of families wanting in, so of course I had to say YES to a 4th day 🥹✨ Don’t miss out! 🤭

They spent 9 years building a love that feels this soft. ♥️

Monica & Derek got married last week and I realized I never shared their engagement session… which honestly feels criminal because LOOK AT THEM. 😭✨

Every photo felt romantic without trying. Like the kind of love you can feel just standing near it.

Their wedding was somehow even more beautiful and I cannot wait to share more soon. 🥹♥️

Everyone posts the “I do.”
I care about everything that led up to it. 🖤

I’m OBSESSED with the getting ready part of a wedding day.
The energy, the details, the chaos, the people around you… it’s so real, so emotional, so you. 🥹

This is the beginning of the story. ✨

& respectfully…
when grooms care about the details like this?
yeah… I get it now. 👏🏽🖤

Don’t worry.
The bride still wins every time…
but this was his moment. 💅🏽✨

P.S. I had to bring that last slide back one more time…
because I’m still not over that setup. 🥰

You’re going to miss this version of you someday. ✨

& not just how you looked…
but how it felt.
The waiting, the growing, the in-between. 🥹

Photographed @ one of my favorite spots in my hometown. The greenhouse continues to be such a special gem. ✨
