My name is Holly Thompson and I am the owner and photographer for Holly Dawn Photography. Holly Dawn is my first and middle name. My brother calls me Little Holly Bear, my husband calls me
Honey and my daughter calls me mama but to most I'm just Holly!

I love candid photography. With the right settings you can evoke
great style into any session whether it's a park, garden, city street or someplace sentimental. I believe a photograph is an irreplaceable keepsake for your family to treasure.  I am a total sap and got into photography when my daughter was born. I'd love to capture your special memories! 

Hey girl!

I'm Holly.

Hello Brides

What can I say? I love weddings! If I'm not watching Say Yes to the Dress or Four Weddings or any of the other eight thousand bridal shows, I'm flipping through my own wedding album to remember my special day. In all seriousness, so much time is spent planning for this special day, you want your wedding to be a reflection of who you are both as individuals as well as a couple. I love getting to know brides and grooms so that I can tell your day beautifully. You fret over the tiniest details in hopes that your wedding is spectacular, fun and above all, full of love! That's what I love about shooting weddings. I have been known to cry at weddings a time or two behind my camera! As a lifestyle photographer, I am totally in favor of candid pics (yes we will do posed images too). Stories are brought to life with details so I focus on the little things. Your wedding day will be filled with extraordinary moments - intimate, surprising and joyous. 

Every couple has a love story. Let me tell yours!
