Excellent and Wonderful to work with

Darla and her second photographer, Ashley, were amazing to work with. They were quick with taking outside photos due to how cold the outside was. The photos that we had seen on our wedding day were immaculate.

Darla Photography is top notch quality and a pleasure to work with!

Darla Photography has been our family’s only photographer dating back to 2017, and I wouldn’t consider a move to another photographer! She has taken our family portraits, she has helped us stage special event photos, and she has photographed two Bat Mitzvahs. In short Darla has been there for us by capturing our most important life moments. We will soon be setting up another session for her to photograph out daughter’s senior portraits knowing that they will be outranking. Darla is the ultimate professional who plans well, she has an astounding creative and technical eye, and she works incredibly well with other event vendors to anticipate and time her editorial photographs. Darla is the best!

It has been a pleasure to work with Darla at weddings and other celebrations throughout the years and include Darla Photography on our recommended vendors list for over a decade. As a photographer Darla has what I like to call an artistic photo journalist style. She has the unique ability of blending onto the crowd while capturing countless candid moments and does her best to not stand out too much even when posing or setting up an important picture is necessary. The first time I worked with Darla on a wedding she impressed me with a very simple gesture by setting her camera down on the ground so she could fluff the bride’s dress and straighten her train as she began to walk up the aisle before capturing an amazing photo of the bride and her father from behind with the groom looking on from the alter. Like Darla, the wedding professionals that impress me the most are the ones who will gladly take on the responsibility of being an extra wedding coordinator so to speak, even if just for a very brief moment to straighten a dress or bring drinks to the bride and groom while they are waiting to join the reception, rather than just doing their job.
