Welcome to Images by Donna U's Photography Gallery and Blog.

I am Donna Underwood, owner, photographer and artist of Images by Donna U. I love nature, people and a simple lifestyle which naturally flows into my photography and art pieces. This blog hosts photographs of my sessions as well as some of the photographs I take for myself because they touched my heart and now prints of many of my original art pieces I painted and sketched. . Hopefully this will open a window into who I am so we can get to know each other.

Viewing life through the lens of a camera I want to help you capture breathtaking moments as they happen in everyday settings.
My soul desire as a photographer is to preserve memories that are gone in a heartbeat so you can cherish them for a lifetime.

I entered some photographs in the Photographers Exhibition at the Gadsden Museum of Art and placed with one of them. I am thrilled with the award and the fact that my work hangs on the museum walls for all to see from May 12th to June 16th.

I have the great honor of being chosen as the photographer for the 2015 Distinguished Young Women of St. Clair County program. Distinguished Young Women is the oldest national scholarship program for high school girls.  Saturday morning I met them and took their photographs for the head shots that will be used in the Program's publications, website and newspaper articles. They were all a delight to work with. Thank you for allowing me to have a part in helping you realize your dreams.

What a wonderful time I had this weekend working with our Pastor and his fiance on their engagement shoot. We traveled to the most beautiful campus in the world for background and spent the day enjoying each others company as well as getting great shots for their engagement. Thank you for allowing me to document this special time in your lives.

I had the opportunity to participate in a modeling camp for a great cause this month. A local resident is battling cancer and the camp was created to help support her needs. I gained new friends in fellow photographers I met there as well as the awesome sweet ladies that were having their photos done and their families. I am so grateful I had this opportunity to help someone in need while providing portfolio needs for aspiring models. 

Please meet some of Wendy's Warriors.

This morning's session was with a delightful 12 year old named Adriana. She is a jewel to work with and lots of fun. Her smile is beautiful and so infectious. The day was gorgeous with blue skies and a light breeze that added to a most wonderful session. Thanks to her mother and grandmother for allowing me the honor of photographing Adriana.
