About Your Photographer

Emily Dukat
Certified Professional Photographer
HEY THERE!
I’m great at awkward,
unless I have a CAMERA IN MY HAND.
It’s like my security blankie.
I enjoy collaborating with you to design customized fine art portraits for your home! Whether they adorns your walls, or decorates your end tables, I'm a believer that your photos should be displayed & tell your stories, capturing the emotions & creating memories for you to cherish.
My love for photography has always existed. A hobbyist since my teens, and then a mom-tog for more than a decade, I decided in 2018 to leave my corporate gig to chase my photography dream & spend more time with my daughter. In March 2022 I earned my Certified Professional Photographer certificate through Professional Photographers of America.
I have a fondness for horses & their humans and absolutely love capturing the hard work of the agricultural life. My love for all things rustic & country shines through in my style of work. Dirt roads, tall grassy fields & critters of all sorts fill me up with HAPPINESS.
When I’m not behind the camera, I'm enjoying adventures with my kiddo. I'm also found hanging around the horse arena, scraping up time to put my nose in a book or catching a live music show. I'm a fan of all facets of COUNTRY MUSIC and believe a good song will hit your heart and soothe your soul.
A few of my FAVORITE things:
S’mores, FALL WEATHER & dirt roads
The smell of a warm sweat on a horse after a good ride
& the aroma of fresh cut grass hay.
Sunflowers in bloom.
Sipping a Jack & Coke.
Finding the perfect notebook.
Grandma sweaters & coffee mugs.




Certain things catch your eye, but pursue only those that capture the heart.
