Meet Your
Family & Equine Photographer

Emily M. 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 portraits for your home! Whether they adorns your walls, or decorates your end tables, I'm a believer that your photos should be displayed, showcasing your stories, capturing the emotions & creating memories for you to cherish.

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 images I create! Dirt roads, tall grassy fields & critters of all sorts fill me up with HAPPINESS.​

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.

Beyond the lens, I enjoy adventures with my kiddo, enjoying a ride on my old mare, and, scraping up time to put my nose in a book. I'm a fan of all facets of COUNTRY MUSIC and believe a good song will heal 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 while socializing with friends.

Finding the perfect notebook.

Grandma sweaters with pockets & oversized coffee mugs.

CERTAIN THINGS CATCH YOUR EYE, BUT PURSUE ONLY THOSE THAT CAPTURE THE HEART.
