Dorset wedding photographer and portrait photographer. UK and beyond.

Welcome to my world!

I am so very excited you stopped by and hope you enjoy the moments you spend on here.

My name is Darima. I am a Dorset wedding photographer, children photographer and newborn photographer. I am also a mummy to two beautiful girls.

I love creating beautiful dreamy imagery.  Being an introvert by nature, wedding photography and portrait photography makes me feel connected to people and is my way of bringing more beauty to this world.

I live in the heart of Blackmore Vale surrounded by stunning scenery of the Dorset countryside and beaches nearby. 

Country living, exploring and travelling UK and beyond is what I love the most.

I started travelling with my family from a young age. Being born in a very cold Siberia, where winter temperatures drop to -40 , I have come to realise, the cold is definitely not for me!

Then I lived with my grandparents in the beautiful Buryatia near Mongolia. It is known for it’s cleanest and largest fresh water lake in the world. This is where my ancestors are from.  A truly magical place with magnificent buddhist temples , beautiful nature, lovely people and of course lake Baykal.

After living there for a while, we relocated to the sunny Bulgaria where my parents now live in their lovely home, overlooking Balkan mountains.

Life, however, brought me here to  Dorset,UK where I have created my own little family. Furthermore, it is where I created my dream job being a Dorset wedding photographer.

 Photography

When I was about 8 years old,  I dreamt of having a camera to be able to capture every single moment and place we have visited.

Of course back then, cameras were not as available as now , so my dream came to reality a little bit later in life.

I now run my own photography business, specialising in wedding photography and portrait photography.

I draw my inspiration from the simple things in every day life by capturing people and their stories.

I have slightly different approaches to Wedding photography and Portrait photography sessions , so please read my Wedding Photography  and Portrait Photography Guides in the menu above about each one of them.

 I hope you share my passion and love for beautiful natural light photography. Let’s create memories together! 

Love,
