Hello, Beautiful Human!

I'm Debra Thornton

six year old girl with cat-eye glasses

Debbie, to my friends!

(and "Brat" to my older sister - even tho I just turned 60) :P


For over 40 years I've helped people of all ages, shapes, sizes and confidence levels see themselves with kinder eyes through my lens. And in all my years of photography, the one thing I've learned is that
people shine brightest when they feel truly seen.

That's why my passion
- and my superpower - is creating a safe, empowering and FUN portrait experience where you can let your radiant self shine!

I invite you to experience a photoshoot with me, and see yourself in a whole new light!

Some Kind Words

Raves & Reviews

HAPPY CLIENTS ARE my favorite COMPLIMENTS

"From a DREAM to a REALITY!"

I am so overwhelmingly happy with my experience with Debra! The pictures I received have transformed my business from a dream to a reality. I can now move forward in confidence and market images that are proud, confident and authentic. I couldn't have imagined a better result. The photoshoot process was very fun as well. I highly recommend Debra to everyone.

"I had so much FUN!"

“Thank you for capturing my professional self so well! You are an absolute delight to work with! You are not only an excellent photographer with an artistic eye, but have such a light hearted attitude which made the whole photo shoot experience relaxed and fun. In just a few hours I went from “I hate taking pictures” to “I’m having soooo much fun”. I think EVERYONE should experience a photo shoot with you, I can’t thank you enough!”
