Taking some landscape photos in my former home - Harbin, China. (January 2020)

My name is Abigail VanDorien...


I'm a photo and video artist who who graduated with a BS in Television Production from Murray State University in 2018. My passion is creativity and capturing special moments for people. After college, I moved abroad, where I lived and worked in China and Laos. I love to travel and see new places! My husband and I met while working in Asia in 2020 and were married 18 months later!


I currently reside in Southwest Missouri with my husband, daughter, and our fur baby. I especially love shooting weddings and engagements, but enjoy doing a variety of photo and video services as well!

About the name, "Ladybug"...

My visual arts business' name is named in honor of my first child, who I sadly lost before my husband and I got to meet . We referred to her as "Ladybug"  because that's how small she was when we discovered we were expecting her.

Ladybugs have a special meaning to me now and I hope you'll think of Ladybugs when you need help capturing your special memories.

Love Notes From My Clients

Eric & Emi

"Love, love, love how these (photos) turned out! Thanks for helping us announce to the world our happy news!"

Your wedding is all about you, your family and dear friends. Be your true self. Show your fun, quirky personality. Do the things that make you happy. Laugh loudly. Kiss slowly. Hug tightly.


I'll be there to capture it all and help you save these beautiful memories for a lifetime.
