About Us
The Dad Daughter Duo
Hi, I'm Celeste and this is my dad, Jonathan. We are the Dad Daughter Duo.
Our story began when my Dad got our first camera in 2010. At this point is when our love for capturing memories through the lens all started. We began taking shots of all our family which then led to taking family portraits of other families.
Dad was the one who fell in love with capturing the perfect picture but, as time went on I began to develop a love for the camera also. As he continued to do events and as I helped on the sidelines, we started to see that Dad had a love for the technical and systematic side of photography while I grew a love for the creative and innovative side of photography.
And.....that's what makes us the PERFECT
Dad Daughter Duo.
