Hi, I'm Deanna — the heart and lens behind Little Joys. I create intentional, artful photography that honours love, family, and legacy. Based in the Okanagan and booking by request only, I specialize in memory-filled portraits that feel like home — full of warmth, calm, and connection. Whether it's sandy toes at sunset, a quiet moment with your newborn, or the chaos and beauty of family life — I’m

here to capture the fleeting magic of it all. Every session is guided, gentle, and rooted in story. Because I believe photography isn’t just about what it looks like — it’s about what it feels like. Let’s create something meaningful, together.

Such a beautiful wine! Grateful for the opportunity to work with the team to capture beautiful images of their wines.

The results are in from the prestigious 2026 Los Angeles International Wine Competition, and we're thrilled to share the incredible news that our Red Gold 2022 was awarded:
- 95 Points
- Gold Medal
- Best of Class
- Best Red Wine of the Competition

This award is especially meaningful because Red Gold 2022 is crafted from 100% estate grown grapes from our vineyards here in Lillooet. For this vintage, our Cabernet Franc stood above the rest, with our winemaking team selecting the finest six barrels in our cellar to create this ultra-premium wine.

We're incredibly proud to see our unique Lillooet terroir recognized on the international stage and deeply grateful to our entire team for the passion, hard work, and care that goes into every bottle.

And the celebrations don't stop there. We also received medals for nine additional wines, all made with 100% Lillooet estate grown grapes, including Best of Class for our Pinot Noir 2024.

We're incredibly grateful to be able to produce wines in this very special place in Lillooet. Thank you for being part of this journey with us.

There are nearly 13 years between my oldest and youngest. Some days I feel caught between worlds.

From teenage milestones, homeschooling lessons, bedtime stories, sports, snacks, and everything in between. Then there are moments like this. All three of my kids together. A reminder that time is moving far too quickly.

Looking forward to being a part of this amazing fundraiser 🤍

Looking forward to being a part of this amazing fundraiser 🤍

The Golden Chari-Tea may be officially SOLD OUT, but we still have so many incredible community partners to thank before the big day 💛

A special shout-out to Little Joys by Deanna Dunham Designs for joining us as a Bronze Sponsor and bringing a beautiful photo booth experience to this year’s event.

From laughter with friends to memorable moments overlooking the vineyards at Poplar Grove Winery, guests are going to have the chance to capture the afternoon in style thanks to Deanna’s creativity and generosity.

Support from local businesses like this helps make the Golden Chari-Tea such a meaningful and memorable community event, all while raising important funds for the Women and Children’s Centre at Penticton Regional Hospital.

We are so grateful for your support and can’t wait to celebrate together on June 3!

The time is here. Sunset sessions are back. ✨

The lupins are blooming, the evenings are warm, and the lake has that soft summer glow that only lasts for a little while each year.

I’ve been waiting for this season. Last night's sky was stunning!

These quiet little beaches and trails around Summerland have always felt a bit magical to me. The colours at dusk, the breeze off the water, kids running barefoot, wildflowers everywhere… it feels like summer memories being made in real time.

If you’ve been thinking about family photos, motherhood sessions, couples, grads, or simply documenting this season of life in a beautiful and natural way, this is your sign.

Golden hour bookings are now open. 🌾

A little peek at the cozy setup I put together in the studio today 🌼

I love creating spaces that feel soft, lived in and full of little details that work together without shouting for attention.

The greens from the blanket, greenery and plant all echo each other, while the warm browns and daisy pillow bring in that earthy, playful feeling I’m always drawn to.

How are boys somehow SO cute and SO annoying at the exact same time? 😂

Life with boys is wrestling matches on the bed, constant noise, random bruises, snacks every 14 minutes, and someone always touching you.

But then they cuddle up together for two seconds and suddenly you forget they’ve been feral all day.

Honestly though, I wouldn’t trade it for anything. 🤎

Sometimes I say yes to a big branding project and pour everything I have into it.

This was one of those projects. I really wanted to honour the heart behind Connie and Ryan’s business and approach it with care, intention, and thoughtfulness from start to finish.

I don’t take on graphic design projects often anymore. They require a huge amount of planning, creative energy, and time on top of running my own business. And truthfully, there are not always enough hours in the day to do everything well. I care deeply about doing things properly and creating work that feels meaningful, polished, and aligned.

But I’m so glad I said yes to this one.

What we created together feels beautiful, intentional, and deeply connected to who they are as a brand.
