HI, I'M DOROTA🌿


YOUR FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER



I'm Dorota, an Edinburgh based family & newborn photographer who LOVES to explore. My family and I love getting outside, going on trips and going camping. I'm not one for anything superposed so what you see is real raw moments. I like adventure and challenges.

I love road trips. You'll find everything in my car as we are always on the road, looking for new routes and new adventures.

HOW CAN I HELP ?

Capturing Memories

HI, I'M DOROTA🌿

YOUR FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER

So many people show up stressed out for a photo shoot. This is NOT what I want to happen. I do not want you to be nervous. It doesn't look good. The camera can see everything, every tense muscle. Instead, I want you to have a fun, wonderful experience to remember for your to come. I love the raw, the unplanned, and the unposed. Every story is personal and unique. I'll guide you gently along the way, and we'll have a great time with pictures to prove it.

WHO I AM?

THEIR JOURNEY, THEIR WORDS ...

Testimonials

Lindsey Hunter - Feb 2025


“We had never used a photographer before, so didn’t really know what the experience would be like. We were happily blown away by the quality, fun and overall enjoyment of a newborn photoshoot with Dorota.
We used her again for pictures at 1yr and the experience was even better. We can’t wait for our next session with her.
The photos are beautiful, artistic and captured our family perfectly. We look at them everyday, and they bring back memories of our family and the wonderful photoshoot experience!”

WELCOME TO YOUR FAMILY STORY – LET’S MAKE MAGIC TOGETHER✨

Choosing the right photographer for your family is much more than finding someone to snap a few pictures. It's about finding someone who understands YOUR STORY, your connections, and the moments that make your family unique. That’s why I’m here—to capture those fleeting, beautiful moments and help you hold onto them forever. 


For me, family begins when you meet that special person—the one who makes you smile, laugh, and feel loved. It’s about the shared moments, whether you're traveling the world together or simply enjoying quiet days at home. I love being part of that journey, helping you freeze those precious memories so you can relive them over and over again. 


As a lifestyle photographer, my goal is to tell your story through my lens. The images we create together will be real, genuine, and full of love. I won’t ask your kids to pose stiffly or force smiles. I’ll help them laugh, be themselves, and have fun. I’m here to capture YOUR FAMILY as they are, with all the joy, silliness, and connection that makes your family uniquely yours.


I love when families come back to me again and again—it's like becoming part of the family. Each time we meet, we create new memories and add new chapters to your story. This is why I do what I do—because I believe in the power of preserving these moments. 


If you’re unsure or shy, don’t worry—I'll make this experience relaxed and enjoyable, so it feels more like spending time together than a photoshoot. You’re just one message away from starting this journey. 


I can’t wait to meet you, to hear your story, and to capture these incredible memories for you. So, reach out! Let’s create something beautiful that will last a lifetime.
