Danielle is the best!

Danielle was so flexible and understanding with us when our large june 2020 full day wedding changed due to covid to a smaller, shorter, and intimate wedding ceremony.

Honestly, a positive that came from this is we had so much more time for couple shots and Danielle is so fabulous and talented that we now have so many beautiful pictures to look back on! It was really hard to pick favorites - there were so many options.

Danielle is laid back and makes you feel at ease. She's also so good about just rolling with the flow and will be brave and willing to get wet in lake michigan to capture the perfect picture for your engagement session.

I cannot recommend Danielle enough!!

We used Danielle as our wedding photographer and we're so glad we did. Danielle met with us over a year in advance of our wedding and answered all of our questions during the booking process. She was professional and responsive leading up to the wedding. And on our wedding day, she was prompt and organized, and made everyone feel comfortable and at ease. She was able to capture our entire shot list, the little details around our venue, and a ton of action shots that express the magic of the evening (dances, speeches, guests tearing up the dance floor). And she worked with us to make sure the formal/posed pictures were minimally disruptive to our day (e.g., so that we could enjoy cocktail hour with our guests). The pictures are absolutely beautiful - she worked so well with the lighting at Salvage One. I love that we received both a digital gallery of all of our photos (without watermark) that we can share with friends for downloading/printing, as well as a usb drive with all of the picture files. We've received so many compliments on our pictures, and we just received our photobook in the mail yesterday and it's going to be such an amazing keepsake for years to come. For 6.5 hours of shooting and the number of photos we received (and the photobook), we also felt the pricing was very reasonable especially given the quality and professionalism. Thanks, Danielle!

Danielle was great to work with! We live out of town and she was very accommodating to our traveling schedule. She had the exact type of style we were looking for to capture our wedding. She paid great attention to detail and captured all of our special moments. The photo book we received after our wedding was great quality. Book Danielle ASAP if you want the perfect wedding photos.

Danielle was simply the best wedding photographer we could have ever asked for. She is incredibly professional and prompt in her communication. Most importantly, though, she is an incredible photographer. Our wedding photographs are absolutely gorgeous. When we first started searching for wedding photographers, Danielle's artistic style and use of light, really made her stand out from others. The photos you see on her site and Instagram are truly representative of the magic she will work for your wedding day. She captured all of the special moments we wanted beautifully. The photographs are better than anything we ever could have dreamed of and will be cherished for a lifetime. Thank you, Danielle!

Danielle was an absolute pleasure to work with! Going into our engagement session, my fiancé and I did not know what to expect. The second we got there Danielle made us feel extremely comfortable. She took the candid pictures we were looking for and we could not be happier with the final product. I highly recommend Danielle to anybody that is looking for a photographer that will capture the true, natural beauty of a relationship. She deserves way more than 5 stars!

Our experience with Danielle was amazing! She was very flexible on date and timing (she even made rescheduling easy when we had a last-minute weather cancellation), and very responsive. Danielle has a creative and adventurous photography style, and she helped us pick some perfect spots for our Chicago shoot. We had a great time working with Danielle, she made the photoshoot comfortable and fun!

Danielle was absolutely amazing. The photo quality and creativity in shots is top notch. She also provides your photos extremely quick! I have heard really bad stories of some photographers taking forever to deliver the final photos, but Danielle got them to me in under a month. She is a lovely person to work with and I would highly recommend her to anyone!

She's super helpful and easy going, so don't worry about adding extra stress on top of huge pile of stuff you have to do on your wedding day. Give her some direction on the type of photos you want and she'll deliver with exceeding results. I really appreciated the extra little touches she added throughout the entire process to not make it feel like a huge chore.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
