25 years later


Another little break from portraits, but still... having fun with my 50mm lens and some of my old and new toys...
mixing two things together from 25 years apart is fun...

One of my first Christmas gifts that I still remember was our first Nintendo.
Now that they have put all three games on one Wii game, its back and not so much better than ever, but still a blast.

Christmas is about traditions and doing things from your past... well.. I guess I have to play some games!

Fusion of two


Got a chance to play around a little with my new camera
and my 50mm lens.
I've been wanting to redo some shots of my old guitar for a while.

Its times like this, where I get a chance to just do some fun work.... but at the same time.. still learning and growing.
Really not too much to these photos, but its a fusion of two of my "hobbies" that I've done for years.
I still recall when I was doing some work with my pentax k1000 film camera and doing multiple exposures when this guitar was new.... fun and exciting for both...
ive come a long way in both, the guitar and the camera (especially the camera) but... yet, it was fun, relaxing and some "me time"... and really, dont we all just need a little me time every once in a while?



Enjoy the photos... I do and love both my guitar, and my camera

Family Photographer Kent & Lorain Ohio


Family Photography...
One of the main reasons behind D C Ketcham Photography
Time flies so fast and in the hustle and bustle of life, we might forget those moments in our lives that had meaning. A portrait of your family is something to treasure forever.
I was blessed to be invited down to Kent to photograph this wonderful family.

Beautiful Portrait Photographer Lorain Ohio

Portrait Photography... Why not?


We are all beautiful.
Beauty is not only skin deep, but beauty is the way that one presents themselves and how they are.

As spoken by Baz Luhrman "Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth. Never mind. You will not understand the power and beauty of your youth until they have faded. But trust me, in 20 years you'll look back at photos of yourself and recall in a way you can't grasp now how much possibility lay before you and how fabulous you really looked. "





Being a portrait photographer here in Lorain truly has its perks. Look at this beautiful mother of three!
Truly an awesome woman. For someone who was not too interested in getting her personal photos, versus just her family portraits, she became very relaxed and comfortable in front of the camera. Her true beauty is from within and she exudes her beauty on the outside as well.

For some people, they ask, why... why get a portrait session... Wether its the time of the season, or a special event in your life

There are many reasons to get a portrait session, but also, think about those times when you just need to do things for yourselves...


I am here to capture those natural moments in your life and I will work with you to get the photos that you want, but to give it my own little flair.


Life comes and goes to fast... don't regret it if theres no photos to prove your beauty.
We are all beautiful!



One last one...
