BEHIND THE LENS

Behind the Lens

“I sustain myself with the love of family. -Maya Angelou

My name is Darby Davenport. I’m an international, gold-awarded, published portrait/boudoir photographer. I’m humbled and delighted to have reached Master Photographer status with the esteemed Portrait Masters community and when possible, I love to teach and mentor other photographers.

When I’m not making photographs for others, I spend my days in the most cherished roles of my life: being a loving wife, mom, step-mom, dog mom and grammy. In all of my personal life, my camera is not far away.

In my beloved work life, I find joy and purpose by connecting with other women. I’ve worked to showcase the female form in very unique ways while always in support of female empowerment, self acceptance and positive body image. I have captured stunning images of women of different ages, sizes, and shapes; women with different tastes, from different backgrounds and with different views on life. That's all a part of the unique beauty we each possess! Our differences!

Being of service to others fills my bucket and I really SEE the beauty in ALL women of ALL ages, shapes and cultures.

Simply show up with an open heart, an interest in the creative process, and leave the rest to me! I am here to guide and support you through the fun, memorable and some say, addictive process of the creation of beautiful, legacy portraits.
