Absolutely phenomenal experience with Danny Co Photography!

Danny went above and beyond for our wedding — not only was he incredibly professional, but he blended right in with our guests and made everyone feel completely at ease. It honestly felt like having another friend there who just happened to be capturing every perfect moment.

The photos are breathtaking. Every emotion, every laugh, every tear — somehow, he managed to catch it all in the most beautiful light. Looking through our gallery felt like reliving the day all over again. His attention to detail and artistic eye are next-level; the composition, lighting, and candid moments are pure magic.

Danny didn’t just take photos — he told the story of our wedding through them. We couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. If you want someone who truly cares about their craft and their clients, who captures your day exactly as it felt, Danny is your guy.

Thank you, Danny, for helping us remember this day so perfectly. 💕

Everything We Hoped For and More

If I could give Danny and his team more than 5 stars, I would. Life got busy after our wedding, and I am very delayed in writing this review—but even months later, we're still looking through our photos and reliving the day all over again. From the very beginning, Danny was easy to work with, professional, and genuinely invested in making sure our wedding day was captured exactly as we hoped. On the wedding day, he and his team blended in seamlessly while somehow managing to capture every important moment, big and small. Since the groom and groomsmen were getting ready at a completely separate location, Danny's team was coordinating coverage in two places at once to make sure nothing was missed. They rolled with last-minute changes without batting an eye and made everything feel effortless, even though I know there was a lot happening behind the scenes. Looking through our gallery, there are so many memories we didn't even realize were happening at the time, and we're so grateful to have them preserved forever. The photos are beautiful, but what stands out even more is how well they captured the emotions of the day. Every time we look at them, we're right back in those moments with our family and friends. Every special moment I could have hoped for was captured perfectly. The editing quality was incredible. There may have been a glass of wine spilled on my wedding dress at one point, but you would never know it from the photos! The attention to detail and care that went into the final gallery truly exceeded our expectations. Hiring Danny was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Danny and team, we truly thank you for everything you did for us.

Amazing photographer - my dream photos

Danny was absolutely amazing. I attended a Richmond Wedding Expo event in February and entered my information in to try and win a free engagement shoot. I was the lucky winner! Danny worked around my schedule and even drove almost 2 hours to the closest beach for us to match the vibe of our wedding for our invitations. Before even getting into the business aspect of it, he immediately asked questions to get to know us. This was such a personal touch and truly set the tone for how the evening was going to go. He guided us into different poses, complimented us the entire time, made us feel confident, and asked us several times if there were any specific photos we wanted to have captured. Received so many photos!! I wasn’t expecting this! For a free shoot, he turned around these edits and provided the full album in literally 3 days. Beyond exceptional. Danny really loves what he does and it shows. He captured everything I could’ve imagined. My fiancé and I are in love with our pictures. His brother was kind enough to tag along and also help capture different angles. Wonderful experience and I would 100% recommend Danny to anyone. We will for sure be using him moving forward.

Capturing every moment with care, precision, and pure wedding‑day bliss

Danny is an absolutely stellar wedding photographer. From the moment he arrived, he went above and beyond to make sure every meaningful moment of our ceremony was captured with incredible care and precision. He was everywhere he needed to be without ever being intrusive, always anticipating the next special shot. What stood out most was how focused he was on keeping the attention where it belonged: on us as a couple. He constantly adjusted angles, guided us gently when needed, and stayed fully engaged throughout the entire event. Looking back at our photos, it’s clear he didn’t miss a thing. Danny’s professionalism and eye for a great shot was so rewarding. Throughout the day, he carried himself with quiet confidence, clearly prepared and deeply invested in getting everything right. He paid close attention to lighting, angles, and tiny details that most people would never notice, and it shows in every photo. His ability to capture the moments that really matter—quiet expressions, genuine laughter, and emotional reactions—left us honestly amazed. Looking through our gallery feels like reliving the day from start to finish, with nothing important missing. We are absolutely thrilled with the results and couldn’t be happier that Danny was the one behind the camera for our wedding. We are so grateful for his professionalism, energy, and artistry. If you want someone who will treat your wedding as if it were his top priority and preserve your memories beautifully, we highly recommend him.

A great photographer for a Charlottesville wedding!

Danny went above and beyond to capture all the parts of our big day. He intentionally worked with us to understand our vision, what was most important to us, and what we hoped to get out of our wedding photos. He was very accessible and easy to work with. Would recommend to other couples looking for a photographer in the Charlottesville area--especially if you're looking for a photographer who knows all of the best spots on Grounds!

The "Just Friends" Photoshoot

My girlfriend and I hired Danny and Co for a photoshoot at UVA’s Rotunda and he came out in force. Not only was he on time, professional, and accommodating, but he had us laughing the entire time (all the smiles are genuine!!) and the pictures looked phenomenal!
This was our first experience with a couples photoshoot, and my first experience with professional photos at all, but Danny made it all so fun and easy. His energy and enthusiasm is clear and infectious!
We had the photos in no time and it was really fun going through them together.
I would HIGHLY recommend Danny & Co for any future photoshoots or weddings.

Engagement Photoshoot

Danny truly exceeded our expectations during our surprise engagement photoshoot! He captured every moment so perfectly. My (now) fiancé and I usually feel a bit awkward in front of the camera, but Danny immediately put us at ease. He guided us with natural, flattering poses, and the photos came out incredible. They are so genuine, effortless and remarkably high-quality.

He also made the entire experience an absolute blast. I found myself laughing throughout the shoot and he added to the joy of the moment without ever distracting from it.

What impressed us even more was how well Danny works within your budget while delivering top-tier results. The clarity, colors and editing of the final images were beyond anything we expected for such a reasonable price.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience; Danny is truly a gem, and we can’t recommend him enough!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
