My name is Dontoja Natosha Denise Anderson. The name of my business Denise Danielle Photography was inspired from my middle name as well as my daughters middle name combined…Photography for me started with a Polaroid camera; taking pictures at our basement parties (that my mom never knew about).  At the age of 14 I knew I would capture memories, I made the decision that I’m a photographer. Although I became a teenage mother I wasn’t going to exchange my dreams from being a photographer however it wouldn’t be my main focus anymore. I came from a family of nurses and I decided to also become a nurse in order to make a way for myself and my son. Again I still captured every memory within my Family and all of our endeavors so when Polaroid ended and Kodak cameras were introduced (film inside) I used those cameras for everything …I remember getting shots of the players from the Chicago Bulls team and Michael Jordan.. I was very excited and sold on the fact of I just got pics of the Chicago Bulls but Every time I tell this story I can’t help but to be reminded how mysteriously Rite-aid on Salem lost all of the pictures I was so mad but not discouraged at all..
