REAL MOMENTS |REAL LOVE | REAL YOU

TORI DAWN IS A WEDDING & LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHER BASED IN NORTHERN CALIFORNIA, SACRAMENTO LOCAL

HEY THERE, I'M TORI DAWN.

So nice to meet you! If you're like me I like to break the ice and cut to the chase when I meet someone new. So this is me. I’m a wife to Mr. Brandon Selden and a boy mama to 2 red-headed, wild and smiley boys. I’m an iced coffee addict or really just a coffee addict in general. I have a love for thrifting, baking the occasional loaf of sourdough, slip on shoes (preferably Birks), and a collector of plants of all sizes. I picked up a camera in the year of 2020. The year everyone learned a new hobby, I just decided to turned mine into a business too. And absolutely fell in love with it. Documenting the most important and memorable seasons of life and all the emotions that come with it, is honestly one of my favorite things. For me photography is all about the moments. The moments that can pass in an instant, fade, and be forgotten over time. My hope is to freeze those memories in photographs, to be enjoyed for years to come. I live for creating images that are timeless and true to life and true to the people I’m photographing. No matter what I’m photographing for you, my goal is to capture the authentic moments of you, and your favorite people.

So let’s catch those magic moments, chase some dreamy light, and have some fun while we’re at it.

Our session was a great experience from start to finish. Tori helped our session feel comfortable, fun, natural and candid. She helped bring out our personalities to really capture our love for each other and our home. She came prepared with plenty of prompts and poses to help bring out my husbands and I’d personality and tell our love story uniquely. After receiving the pictures, I was obsessed! I printed so many for our home and have received numerous compliments on the final product. I can’t wait to have her take more pictures of us as time goes on!

I had a session with all of my boys and I am obsessed with the outcome of our photos! Tori was great with the kids, she played with them, directed them with fun prompts but gave them the freedom to fully be themselves, and she was so patient along the way. She even played their favorite songs to help them loosen up in front of the camera. The photos she captured of me and my boys are pure perfection. I can't wait to put them up in our home and cherish them forever!

I first had the opportunity to work with Tori in 2021 when I did my maternity shoot and all I can say is WOW! She is phenomenal. Has the best eye for capturing lasting moments. Uses a gentle, subtle edit on her photos and they come out absolutely beautiful. I have since had her do family photos, newborn photos and will have her do my son's first birthday photos as well. I couldn't have asked for a better photographer to be apart of our lives and to continue to capture the best moments as our family grows. We simply love Tori!

Tori did such an amazing job of not only capturing every moment of our wedding day but also, being present for all my questions and professional in the way she runs things before the big day arrives. The day was extra smooth because of her coordination and help with my timeline. And I received the photos I always hope for (and then some). Can’t thank this girl enough for making our big moments last forever!!!

“Tori made me feel comfortable being myself in front of the camera and that takes a special person. She was patient, encouraging, fun attentive, and professional. She came prepared with posing ideas. Not only was the shoot fun, her eye for lighting and editing made the photos come out better than I could have ever imagined! I'd recommend her to anyone!”
