Arkansas photographer arrested after hidden cameras found inside his studio

Police were contacted after a 19-year-old woman was allegedly encouraged by Dillon Dooms, 35, to change clothes inside the small, one room studio.

The report said Dooms stepped outside to give the woman privacy while she was changing clothes. While she was in the studio changing her clothes, the woman noticed a USB port with a small lens on it. She looked at the device and found that it was a video camera. The woman found three other hidden cameras in the studio and removed one of those other cameras as well.

The woman took the SD card to Fayetteville Police. Dooms was interviewed by investigators a few days later.

During the interview, Dooms acknowledged that there were cameras in his studio, but that they were not hidden, and he said they were there to protect him from theft and false sexual allegations from his clients (no claims have been made against Dooms in the past).

According to the report, Dooms refused to let investigators look over the micro SD cards, and a search warrant was issued for the cards. On two of the SD cards, investigators discovered 12 different girls were filmed in various states of nudity on 18 separate occasions; one identified as a 17-year-old, which was known by Dooms.
