WELCOME TO
THE BLOG
If you'd like to see more of my work, then you're in the right place. While you may follow me on Instagram, that's only a highlight reel. I believe it's extremely important to see what a full session with Desiree Ortman Photography is really like - and 2-3 pics from each session doesn't show that. This is your one-stop-shop to learn more about each session, view (almost) all of the gorgeous photos (yes, there are even more than what's shown here) and see what my clients have to say about their experience.
