Everyday Moments Photography bio picture

Hi, my name is Dena Powell and I’m the face behind the camera. I am a combination of studio light (newborns and babies) and natural light (everything else) photographer specializing in maternity, newborns, and babies up to a year. I serve Orlando, Florida and its surrounding areas. I’m a Florida native, attended Florida State University (Go Seminoles!), and have been in the Lake Nona area since 2001. I’m married with two beautiful children - one boy, Hunter, who is 10 and one girl, Peyton, who is 7. We're a soccer family. Our son has played since he was 3 and we are Orlando City season tickets holders. When I'm not taking pictures you can usually find me at my kids' school, doing Crossfit, or at the beach.

I’ve always had a love of pictures. Growing up my camera was always present. A serious interest sparked when I had children and that eventually led to establishing Everyday Moments Photography in 2011. I am one who loves the perfect family portrait where everyone is looking and smiling, but I also love the candid, everyday moments you catch when you just let life happen. That’s what you’ll get if you choose me as your photographer. Please use the Contact tab to inquire about a session. I look forward to getting to know you! :)

Summer Memories | New Smyrna Beach Family Photographer

We are so blessed to be able to spend a lot of time in New Smyrna Beach throughout the summer. Often times we invite friends to share that time with us. This trip was just us two moms and five kids. Hers are the red heads and mine are the blondes. We went out to the inlet one night and I wanted to just shoot for me. The kids did have a great time, but the noseeums were out so therefore there was a lot of complaining and whining. I walked away with quite a few keepers so I’d say it was a success. Lots of beautiful memories made.
