RainbowWedding LBGTQ Wedding Expo

We Loved Meeting You at the LGBTQ Wedding Expo.

We really enjoyed spending the afternoon with you last Sunday.  Thank you all so much, for visiting with us.  I just wanted to drop you a note to remind you that we offered a 15% discount on any of our packages to anyone who attended the RainbowWedding Expo last Sunday the 18th   and that offer still holds! This is really a great deal for you, but it also gives us at Creative Portraits by Dolores, a wonderful opportunity to show you how we can make your special day ageless and everlasting.  Please give us a call.  We'd love talk to you again.

We're Adding VIDEOGRAPHY !!


Starting in August 2019, we've partnered with videographer Tim Boughn, with whom we've worked with for years.  We love working with him and our couples absolutely love his work so we thought this would make a perfect match.  For years couples have asked us if we also did videography and our answer was always no.  We figured we should stick with what we know best and not meddle in something completely new.  But we also thought that perhaps we weren't giving the "soon to be married" community everything they needed so...  



Here it is!  For about $700.00 more, and subject to Tims availability, we can have Tim work your wedding with us and provide a video that covers the entire ceremony, highlights of the reception, and a montage of the entire day set to a song chosen by the couple.

Maternity and Newborn Portraits


Maternity and Newborn







Here at Creative Portraits by Dolores we're experimenting with a new technology that is an incredible new tool that can take any still image and animate it into a beautiful looping GIF or video file.  Check it out!

We're also reminding our mothers-to-be that a Maternity and/or Newborn portrait session is a wonderful way to capture a very special time in their lives and keep it dear forever.  Here are some examples of recent Maternity shoots we've done.

Great Venues Make Beautiful Portraits.  Albuquerque Offers Some Beautiful Venues.





Casas de Suenos Old Town Historic Inn

With warm historic charm, this venue creates the perfect setting for a truly talented photographer.  As you can see from this portrait, Dolores has taken the warmth of the adobe and combined the colors produced by the tree blossoms, the Brides bouquet and the newly weds love for each other to produce one of many lovely portraits.  Casas de Suenos is just one of many beautiful venues in the Albuquerque area.  


The Engagement Session

Cases de Suenos makes a great place for the engagement session as well. Your engagement is a very special time in your life and we want to capture these moments forever. That’s why we place special emphasis on these moments, to capture and celebrate the emotions that are so special and unique when you've said "I do".  Whether your engagement session is out in the great outdoors or in the studio, we'll make these memories special.





The Black & White 

Sometimes the image in the tones of Blacks, Grays & Whites tell the story better than its colorized brethren.  Dolores will give you a variety  of options when a black and white or brownish tones of a sepia image offer a strong alternative to the average portrait.




Look for Originality

Dolores's talent doesn't stop with the venue or the camera settings.  Her originality and eye for detail creates a portrait so unique, there will never be another like it.  Look closely at this portrait.  Can you see the difference   With Creative Portraits by Dolores, your portraits will be completely original.
