If you use our generic repositories you can use AutoMapper or an equivalent library to easily copy only the needed fields to a new DTO object, like @davidsheardown said.

Downside to using our generic repositories for this is that you retrieve more fields from the database than the client needs.
If you really only want to retrieve the needed fields from the database, you will have to return a projection with a custom LINQ to Entities query where you only request the needed fields. You will have to make a custom repository for that.
