Where Your Story Breathes, and Love Becomes Art

 

 

Welcome, kindred spirit. This is more than a photography service; it's an immersion into a world where every fleeting glance, every gentle touch, every unspoken vow is captured with heartfelt intention. At Viva Por Ti – 'I Live For You' – we believe your moments are sacred, and we live to translate their essence into timeless, luminous memories.

Living for Your Moments: The Philosophy Woven into Every Click

Why 'Viva Por Ti'? Because your story is our deepest inspiration. It’s in the air we breathe, the light we chase, the connections we foster. We believe photography is an act of profound empathy, a gentle witnessing. It’s about seeing the poetry in your everyday and the epic in your milestones. Our lens seeks not just to document, but to feel – to capture the laughter that dances in your eyes, the quiet strength in your embrace, the pure, unwritten language of your heart. This is where authentic connection meets artistic devotion, creating a space where you can simply be, and trust that your most cherished memories are being tenderly gathered.

"She is so professional, creative, and is so passionate!"


Dominique is amazing! I’ve booked boudoir, my wedding, and now maternity! She is so professional, creative, and is so passionate! She is really good at taking your ideas and bringing them to life! I am very indecisive but she’s been able to take all my ideas and take beautiful photos! Her versatility is rare to find these days especially because most photographers are in one bucket, she does it all and I couldn’t be more happier with everything we’ve created thus far! I recommend her to all my family and friends she is that amazing! I will continue to book with her for all my photography needs!

Frequently Asked Whispers: Your Curiosities Answered

 

Do you travel for weddings, elopements, or sessions?

While my heart is anchored in Rhode Island's poetic landscapes, my artistry joyfully travels, ready to frame your unique love story wherever it unfolds. For me, travel is essential to weaving soulful, cinematic narratives; a meaningful location infuses your story with unique energy, amplifying emotion and allowing us to capture the luminous essence of your connection.

Immortalizing your commitment in a cherished setting—from breathtaking destination weddings to intimate elopements—is a profound privilege, crafting timeless, heartfelt heirlooms. To provide immersive dedication to each heartfelt adventure, I accept a limited number of bespoke destination experiences annually. If your spirit is called to a special place, I warmly invite you to connect and explore how we can weave its magic into your luminous story.

Can we view a full wedding gallery before booking?

Indeed, and I wholeheartedly encourage it. Witnessing a complete wedding gallery offers invaluable insight into how the full narrative of a day is soulfully captured and artfully preserved with cinematic consistency. It allows you to experience how every chapter of the celebration—from the soft, luminous details of preparation to the heartfelt, candid emotions of your reception, across all lighting environments—is woven into a timeless and cohesive visual story. This ensures you can confidently envision your own precious moments being documented with the same depth, artistry, and unwavering attention to the ephemeral whispers of your day.

How are travel fees handled for your photography services?

My aim is to ensure a seamless and transparent experience as we plan the exquisite documentation of your story, wherever it may unfold.

For celebrations taking place within our beautiful home state of Rhode Island, travel is inherently part of my service for locations within a 60-mile radius. Should your chosen venue lie beyond this, a modest consideration for extended travel will be clearly and thoughtfully outlined.

When your narrative calls me to cherished destinations further afield—whether nationally or to an enchanting international setting—your bespoke photography collection will thoughtfully incorporate all travel investments. This typically includes roundtrip airfare, a minimum of two nights' accommodation (to ensure I arrive rested and fully present to capture every nuance of your day), and necessary ground transportation. These arrangements are personally managed by me for your complete ease, ensuring absolute transparency with no unforeseen costs.

Should your unique celebration require more specific or extensive travel arrangements, I am delighted to create a personalized travel quotation, ensuring every detail aligns perfectly with the beautiful tapestry of your plans.

We're worried we might look awkward or feel we aren't very photogenic. Can you help with that?

Please know, this is a sentiment many hearts share, and it is my sincere privilege to guide you into a space of ease and authentic expression. My art unfolds in fostering a serene and genuine atmosphere where your comfort allows your natural connection to beautifully emerge before the lens.

The romantic, soulful imagery you've seen? Often, those cherished, luminous moments are shared by couples who initially harbored similar feelings. Trust in a bespoke and gentle experience, designed not to pose you, but to sensitively witness and capture the heartfelt, inherent beauty of your unique bond, exactly as it is. Our session is a collaboration, a gentle dance, allowing your true selves to shine with soulful radiance.

What if you haven't photographed at our chosen venue before?

Please be assured, discovering the unique character and visual poetry of a new venue is a cherished part of the bespoke journey we undertake together. Every Viva Por Ti experience intrinsically includes dedicated preparation, wherein I immerse myself in understanding the distinct ambiance and potential of your chosen setting, even if it's one I haven't had the pleasure of visiting previously.

This involves thoughtful research and personalized consultations with you to envision the most evocative backdrops for every chapter of your day—from the sacred moments of your vows to the joyous interactions with your wedding party and guests. To ensure we harness the most luminous light and soulful perspectives, I always dedicate time to explore your venue in person. This may be a dedicated visit prior to your wedding, or I will arrive with ample time on the day itself, allowing me to intuitively connect with the space and map out how your story will most beautifully unfold.

This meticulous approach to planning ensures a seamless and artfully considered flow to your photography, allowing you to relax and immerse yourselves fully in the heartfelt emotion and magic of your day, confident that every detail is being thoughtfully orchestrated for your timeless narrative.

When will we receive our photographs?

The anticipation of unveiling your final collection of images is a moment I deeply cherish alongside you. Each photograph from your day is more than just an image; it's a fragment of your story, deserving of meticulous care and artistic refinement. I pour my heart and soul into thoughtfully curating and perfecting every luminous detail, ensuring your memories are transformed into a timeless, cinematic narrative. This dedication to craftsmanship, while requiring patience, promises heirlooms truly worth the wait.

To provide clarity on when you can expect your beautifully finished images:

Portrait Sessions (Family, Boudoir, Engagement, etc.): Your complete, soulfully edited gallery will be ready for viewing and download within approximately five to six weeks from your session date.

Weddings & Elopements: The comprehensive artistry involved in crafting the full narrative of your wedding day typically requires eight to twelve weeks, with slight variations depending on the season's ebb and flow. However, to allow you to relive and share the immediate magic, a curated collection of sneak peek images—a luminous prelude to your full gallery—will be delivered to you within one week of your celebration.

Should your unique circumstances require an expedited delivery of your complete wedding or elopement gallery, please do inquire about our specialized rush service. This option is designed to accommodate more pressing timelines while upholding the unwavering commitment to the artistic integrity of your images.

How do you ensure our precious wedding photos are safe and won't be lost?

The memories we immortalize together are far more than photographs; they are irreplaceable fragments of your unique love story, destined to become cherished, timeless heirlooms. Recognizing their profound emotional value, the uncompromising security and preservation of your images are foundational to my commitment to you.


From the instant each image is captured, a meticulous and multi-layered safeguarding protocol is set in motion, encompassing at least six distinct points of secure backup. This comprehensive system begins with immediate in-camera redundancy through dual memory card recording. Your images are then systematically transferred to multiple secure hard drives and further protected via encrypted cloud storage. As a final measure of diligence, the original memory cards are archived within a fireproof safe until your complete, soulfully edited gallery is delivered safely into your hands.


This unwavering dedication to protecting your visual legacy is a responsibility I hold with the utmost seriousness. The thought of your precious memories being anything less than perfectly secure is simply untenable. My rigorous process ensures you can anticipate your beautiful, luminous images with complete peace of mind, knowing your story is in the safest of hands, allowing you to cherish these moments for a lifetime and beyond.

Can you recommend other wedding vendors to help bring our vision to life?

Indeed. An integral part of the bespoke Viva Por Ti experience is to ensure every element of your celebration harmonizes beautifully to reflect your unique vision and our shared commitment to heartfelt, authentic storytelling.

Once we begin our journey together, I am delighted to share with you my thoughtfully curated collection of fellow artisans and trusted professionals whose work I deeply admire and whose dedication to excellence resonates with our own. This can encompass recommendations for visionary planners, exquisite floral designers, purveyors of fine attire, culinary artists, talented hair and makeup stylists, and other specialists, all chosen to align with your personal style and location. Naturally, should your vision include cinematic videography to complement your still images, we would be honored to discuss how our own soulful storytelling can preserve those moving moments.

My years of experience and carefully nurtured connections within the wedding community, both in Rhode Island and further afield, allow me to suggest individuals whose artistry and professionalism will not only elevate your day but also contribute to a seamless and joy-filled atmosphere. When your celebration is supported by a passionate and collaborative team, it allows for the effortless capture of those luminous, candid interactions and the rich, soulful details that will form the heart of your timeless wedding narrative. It is my sincere pleasure to help connect you with such remarkable talent.
