THE PHYSICAL INHERITANCE
An Investment in What Time Cannot Steal. Your life is the only book that will never be reprinted.
Intentional fine-art wedding storytelling, sovereign boudoir portraiture, and generational cinema across Newport, Boston, and coastal New England. We build tangible, museum-grade archives that protect your history from expiring digital clouds and forgotten hard drives.
You are not purchasing photos by the hour. You are securing an inheritance
The wedding and portrait industry has trained people to think of photography as a transactional line item: you hire a vendor for a block of time, they take a checklist of poses, and they send an expiring gallery link with hundreds of digital files that will eventually be forgotten on an old phone or a crashed hard drive.
We refuse to let your life settle for a digital grave.
Your memories are not disposable internet content. You are investing in emotional safety, somatic guidance, and the peace of being witnessed by someone who understands the nervous system of a room. Above all, you are investing in a physical heirloom: museum-grade books, raw 35mm analog grain, and cinematic films engineered to outlive every changing software platform and be held by your great-grandchildren a century from now.
What your investment actually builds
- The Blueprint (The Covenant Dialogue): A dedicated discovery consultation to explore the emotional foundation of your connection, dismantle camera anxiety, and establish boundaries long before uncovering the lens.
- The Atmosphere (Curated Direction): Bespoke location scouting and a custom Seasonal Styling & Wardrobe Guide engineered to harmonize textiles and tones with the venue's natural light.
- The Sanctuary (The Somatic Flow): An unhurried session prioritizing nervous system regulation, deep exhales, and natural movement over rigid, artificial posing.
- The Archive (The Permanent Legacy): The delivery of your private high-resolution digital vault, transitioned into the organic soul of 35mm film and custom, hand-bound museum-grade Heirloom Volumes.
Leading with the heart of a friend and the eye of an architect
“She’s not somebody that’s going to cut corners and take the easy way out. Her work captures the real drama of life, but also the light and the airiness. She steps completely outside herself to meet people where they are, to really listen, and to make them feel profoundly understood.”
— Nathan | Julius Film Co. & Lead Cinematographer
I do not arrive on set as a detached technician watching the clock. I operate as your Intentional Witness and the dedicated guardian of your peace.
My B.S. in Psychology and B.A. in Human Development are the structural framework of this studio. They allow me to read the unspoken dynamics of a room, protect you from sensory overload, and manage timelines with unshakeable calm.
When you hire Viva Por Tí, you are not simply renting camera gear. You are hiring a decade of specialized historical stewardship, an unyielding commitment to physical heirlooms, and a collaborative team—including Nathan and Rob of Julius Film Co—devoted to preserving what your soul refuses to forget.

“Dominique is, without a doubt, the reason our wedding day ran so smoothly. From refining our timeline to keeping us calm when things fell behind, she was the anchor we didn't know we desperately needed. The photos are pure magic—she captured the feeling of the day, not just the events. Book her now!”
— K&P | Newport Wedding
“She gave my family something truly priceless. You didn’t just take pictures; you captured the pure, raw, genuine love my parents have for one another in a way I’ve never seen before. It’s a kind of love that can’t be staged or explained—it’s simply felt.”
— Hayleigh | Lineage Story Session
“People like Dominique are rare. She stayed by my husband's side outside the OR doors during our emergency C-section, and captured the moments I was unable to witness. She isn't just a photographer; she is family, giving you the most priceless gift of all: time, preserved forever.”
— Stasha | Birth Vigil & Wedding Archive
