Dee's been capturing heart stopping moments for over 30 years. Most of her associate photographers have been shooting professionally for 6-10 years or more. And all of her assistant photographers have 2 or more years of formal training under their belts. Plus, we're constantly learning and updating our skills with seminars, online training, and in-house sessions where we share whatever new stuff one of us has learned with all of our other photographers.
Dee was doing the lifestyle type of photography that's so popular right now, way back in the 80s. A full 30 years before anyone else. She was also one of the first women in the area to photograph weddings, one of the first to provide unlimited coverage at no extra charge, and one of the first to mentor and train new photographers. She's probably the only photographer who attends rehearsal, and one of the few who always supplements her coverage with other talented photographers.
Let's face it, every year someone decides, "I'm gonna be a wedding photographer."

Services
Too often we see photographers who go into a wedding with the thought that they are going to control the entire day.
Or they're "strictly photojournalists" and make no effort to create at least a few good shots for you.
Or they're only "available light" photographers.
At Dee Akright Photographers, we recognize that your wedding day should be one of the most incredible days of your life.
It should be happy, and fun, and full of wonderful emotions.
But more than anything it should be totally free of hassle or worry.

We loved Dee from the moment we saw her website!
She has an eye for photography that is very rare to find.
When we met with her we didn't really have any questions to ask, but she told us some things we should have asked her.
It was nice and very professional of her to talk with us and gave us trust in her.
We booked engagement pictures and were thrilled with the pictures!
They were amazing and so creative, just what we were looking for.
She sent us a sneak peek of our wedding pictures and I love them!
