Katie Dobies Photography

I hadn’t set an alarm. I simply woke up at just the right time, grabbed my camera, and went outside. As the eclipse progressed, clouds began moving through the sky sometimes revealing the moon clearly, sometimes surrounding it and completely changing the scene.

Looking through the photographs afterward, I realized I didn’t just capture the eclipse. I captured the atmosphere of the night — the darkness, the clouds, the stars and those brief moments when everything seemed to line up.

Sometimes the photographs you never planned to take become the ones you’re most grateful you were there to make. 🌙✨

A mother and two fawns came by this morning and I caught this fawn having a playful moment with the dried plant and then acting like nothing just happened. Isn't it cute?

I'm grateful to be featured in an artist spotlight by CanvasRebel!

The interview shares the story behind Stock Photo Queen, why I spent years building an independent stock photography platform, and how that journey naturally led to creating Ethical Imagery.

It's been an incredible experience watching these ideas grow from a simple vision into something much bigger than I originally imagined. I like to call it the artistic process.

Thanks to everyone who has supported my work along the way - a little bit of encouragement goes a long way!
