She was with me every step of the way!

Anytime I had a question photography related she would answer.
I was extremely nervous about the weather the day of the ceremony! She kept me calm and even offered suggestions if we had to locate an inside location.

Amazing photographer

Amazing photographer as always. She was ahead of schedule and got to work as soon as she arrived. Her visions were great. She was able to get everyone together for group pictures in a timely fashion and there wasn't any stand and wait moments everything just flowed smoothly.

The Best at what she does! She is passionate and cares very much about the quality of the photos that she takes for you. She keeps that same energy in making sure that you have an enjoyable wedding experience. Unlike all of the other vendors who just did their part and wqs satisfied with whatever they did Darkred Photography did not do that. She wanted to make sure that everything ran smooth and that we were taken care of. Even checking with to make sure that everything was going good. I cant express enough of my gratitude for how much she helped us.

Great customer service from the first day I contacted her about her services. She was very professional and well organized. Each session she arrived prompt and on time. She had some shits instantly available which was a plus. I was very pleased with her services and would recommend her for any type of photography needs. One of her best qualities is that she also promotes others that assisted you in your look ( MUA, hairstylist, etc.)

One word to describe Darkred Photography. ... passion. ... I've never witnessed this type of passion with a photographer before every ounce of her being goes into each photograph. She's taken pictures of me for business and pleasure. ... she's captured me alone and with my husband .... no matter the occasion the result is always the same. ... excellence. Not only would I recommend Darkred... i hire Darkred... she's the best in my book!
