A Year in Review | 2020 Lifestyle Portraits

Deborah Michelle Photography Birmingham Lifestyle Photographer

Oh 2020! Despite the wild year, I am incredibly thankful for YOU, my dear clients. You all receive trophies for countlessly rescheduling, social-distancing & all the happy dancing that you brought this Alabama small business owner.

It seems like every inch of the State of Alabama was covered - from Huntsville to Birmingham, Auburn to Mobile & every small town in between. I loved spending time with YOU & your families - pups included.

Thank you, sweet client turned friend, for trusting me with your memories. I will look back on this year with gratitude at the many ways a global pandemic shifted my focus & allowed me to be more intentional with how I served my clients. You comforted me in a season of mourning, celebrated my 30th birthday, welcomed a new furry assistant to the DMP bunch, loved on one another & watched several DMP brides become moms. Oh & DMP turned 5 years old!

2020 may go down as my least favorite year, but boy did I learn so much in these past 12 months. Enjoy browsing some of my favorite memories from this year.

Portraits

DMP celebrated so many exciting seasons with so many wonderful clients. Everything from adoptions to college graduations & so many mini sessions. I also got to meet up with several returning clients for updated family portraits, which was most certainly a highlight to this crazy year we had!

Newborns

One of the many joys of being a photographer is watching my couples become parents. Granted we had to be creative this year with in-home newborn lifestyle sessions, but I am blown away by how special some of these turned out.

Pups

Ya’ll know me…I LOVE ALL OF THE PUPS! I once thought I was just a crazy dog mom, but then I realized that so many of you also loved your four-legged friends as much as I did. I had the best time stealing all of the puppy kisses & pets this year. Goal for 2021: pet more pups!
