Great photos and great attitude, and very professional!

We are so lucky we found Dawna! We were interested in candid wedding photos, capturing the event as it happened, and we noticed from her portfolio that Dawna could definitely do that. But what set her apart for us was the warmth and joy present in so many of the pictures on her website-- she is great at capturing folks at their best without everything looking posed. When we reached out to her, we were pleased to see that she was also joyful in person! She responded quickly (less than a day I think!) and over the phone she immediately put us at ease and made us excited to share our vision for our wedding photos. She clearly knew her stuff and asked all the right questions about what types of photos we wanted and day-of logistics, and we felt very comfortable trusting her with this crucial component of the wedding.
On the day Dawna and her assistant were very efficient at getting the photos we needed (i.e. the long list of planned family shots and the inevitable spontaneous and chaotic ones as well) while keeping everyone in good spirits. They also were able to go around and get shots of the friends and family having a blast. We were also glad we booked her for a little extra time for our off-site wedding afterparty, so that we had mementos from the whole day. When we got all the photos back we were so happy with the moments that Dawna captured, and we keep coming back to these photos again and again. She has our appreciation and strong recommendation!

I highly recommend Dawna as your wedding photographer!

Dawna was hands-down the perfect choice for our wedding photographer! Her communication before, during, and after our wedding was super clear, and it helped me be able to actually enjoy the entire process rather than stress! Dawna truly exudes a magical cheerful and positive quality, and just having her there made me feel calm and able to be in the moment during the entire wedding day. She and her photography partner were constantly everywhere, and yet, she was so discreet about it all. She did a wonderful job both allowing us to be our silly selves and giving really simple directions for posed photos. She knew exactly where to go in our venue for best lighting and backdrops and I could not have asked for more beautiful photos! After the wedding, we met up in person where we got to look at the photos together and she gave us a flashdrive with all of them, as well as a link to an online gallery to share with family and friends. I highly recommend Dawna! She is amazing!

Phenomenal job capturing our special day

Dawna did such an amazing job capturing our special day. Looking back on the pictures she took gave us reminders of special, intimate moments I might have forgotten without them. Dawna met with us several times to ensure our needs were met, and was flexible and understanding while planning during a pandemic. Dawna's work is beautiful, and we cherish each photograph she took. We loved having her be such a big part of our special day.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
