Hello, I'm Denise Birdsong.

I am an award-winning wedding, portrait and boudoir photographer from the San Francisco Bay Area. Through my experiences as a dancer and model, I mastered the fine art of communication and storytelling through body language and facial expression. Emotion is what makes portrait photography truly standout, and it’s usually the missing component for most photographers. I am passionate about mentoring my photography students my signature methodology, The Art Of Emotion: Stripped Down, that takes them to the next level of their craft.
