MEET THE NEONATAL NURSE BEHIND ARIZONA BLOOM PHOTOGRAPHY
At Arizona Bloom Photography in North Peoria, I specialize in newborn, children, family, and maternity photography, creating timeless images that tell your family's unique story. With over 20 years experience as a neonatal nurse in the ICU with the tiniest of humans, I bring a unique blend of medical expertise and artistic vision to newborn photography. My nursing background has taught me patience, attention to detail, and the ability to create a calm, soothing, and safe environment. Whether I am photographing a sleeping newborn, curious toddler, or a family sharing tender moments together, I approach each session with the same gentle care and dedication I have brought to my nursing career. I am a wife and a mother of two. Every role has taught me the same truth: life's most beautiful moments deserve to be preserved. Arizona Bloom Photography, where healing hands meet creative souls.
Your Nurse Photographer, Dawn.

TESTIMONIALS
"Working with Dawn was such a wonderful experience! From the moment we arrived, she was incredibly accommodating and friendly, making both me and my toddler daughter feel completely comfortable. The whole photoshoot was relaxed and fun, and Dawn had a great way of engaging my daughter, capturing her natural smiles and energy. The photos turned out beautifully, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. We will definitely be using her again for family pictures in the future! Highly recommend!
