About

This is my dream job. I have come so far with so much support from family, friends and clients I have had the pleasure of working with along the way. This is my third year shooting and I have truly been blessed with meeting some of the greatest couples, families and individuals.

I finished highschool and went into nursing pre-req classes for a few years at a community college with every intent to jump into a full time program. Three short years ago I was faced with applying full time for a program in order to start my nursing carreer. It was then that I knew I needed to jump into the dream I'd had for years. I closed my eyes and purchased my first camera.

This is the dream... doing a job that never feels like work. When I am behind that camera, I smile as I shoot. I get involved with each person and see every detail. I strive for capturing relationships and feelings with perfection. I anticipate those fleeting moments shared between a couple becoming one, a mother and daughter, a father and his newborn. Every family, couple and individual I meet has impacted my life and continuausly leads me to believe I am where I am supposed to be and doing what I am supposed to be doing. I have been working from word of mouth references and plan on adverstising next year!

Absolutely blown away by Danielle! She has such an eye for the photographs. She was so helpful, organized, and professional. Our first look was all her idea and it was like a scene from a movie! I would 100% book her again if I had the choice.

Danielle is immensely talented. Her photos capture more than just people and locations; they capture complex emotions. When you look at her photos, you can't help but feel something. Her love for telling stories through still images is evident in her work.

My husband and I used Danielle for our engagement photos and our wedding photos. In both scenarios, she was outstanding. She kept our formal photos running smoothly and she took some of the most incredible candid photos I've ever seen. Her ability to use natural light in creative ways is just remarkable! She also managed our photo booth and thanks to her team, we have full-size, high-quality photo booth photos instead of those tiny ones you'd get from a DJ company or other photo booth service.

Danielle is worth every single dime we spent on her work and then some!

Our pIctures perfectly captured our wedding day. They were stunning. I had a facial injury years ago and told Danielle about my concerns - I ended up seeing a whole different side of myself and feeling so beautiful! Our pictures could be a magazine cover - the snow was a wonderful addition and Danielle made the most of it!

Danielle took photos of my husband and me before we were engaged, and we were blown away by the result. She truly captured the essence of our relationship in the photos. When we were planning our wedding, there was no question as to who we would hire. I am so happy we found Danielle. My wedding photos are simply amazing! Danielle captured so many beautiful & touching moments, we can truly relive our wedding day by looking through the photos. She was always available to answer any questions or concerns I had about the upcoming event, she was very professional with the venue staff and my guests, and most importantly, she was extremely creative with the pictures. We have so many unique, classic, and beautiful photos, it's impossible to get them all into one album! We are so happy with the level of service she provided, and cannot wait for the next life event she can capture!

Danielle was very professional, gave us a beautiful portfolio, walked besides us from wedding ceremony to reception, and offered her services for a very reasonable price.

Danielle was amazing to work with. We started with an engagement shoot which was a great idea because then we got used to each others' styles. Everyone involved in my wedding kept telling me how great she was to work with. Very unobtrusive and still gets great shots!! I recommend her to everyone and can't wait to have her shoot my future family pictures!

Danielle took gorgeous photos for us on our wedding day! She was very professional and even stuck with us throughout our 14hr wedding day! Our engagement pictures turned out great and she was very flexible in scheduling time and location. Her photos are always dazzling, and I simply can't wait to see my full album. I highly recommend Danielle Allen Photography to all brides out there!

I really enjoyed working with Danielle for our wedding on the day of. She was so sweet, very kind and I was able to hire her on the spot for another hour. Her pictures are incredible and look like they are out of a magazine.
However, I was very disappointed ultimately with the professionalism we received. As someone who has family in the wedding industry, I know how important this side of the business is. You can have fantastic artistry and skills but if you do not have the business chops, you could fail.
Here were issues we had:
We always had a tough time getting a hold of Danielle. All of our payments were early and on time, however checks would go over two weeks without being cashed. I also had to track Danielle down before our wedding when all other vendors had contacted us about three weeks out. Our contract said Danielle would contact us two weeks before the wedding. She would tell me she would call, then wouldn't and when I finally got a hold of her, it was 2 days before the wedding which was an incredibly hectic time. Also, when it came to receiving our pictures, we had to go to Danielle after our due date. She said she wished she had amended our contract because she had so many weddings in the fall that she could not keep our agreed upon date. This wasn't mentioned months before our wedding, this was after our date had passed. We did ultimately get our pictures but Danielle would promise pictures 'that night' only to not send us any.
Danielle did admit and apologize for her lack of professionalism. I really sincerely hope that the ball was just dropped with us and that this isn't how she normally conducts business. I just hope that our experience will help Danielle treat future clients better and will be a learning experience but I would not recommend Danielle to a friend.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
