Highly Recommended

Where do I even begin? Dawn and the Daybreak Photo Co team were such a pleasure to work with. They captured my wedding exactly as I had envisioned it. From the very beginning, Dawn was upfront about expectations, time needed, family considerations, location, everything. She was always responsive as I was trying to plan every detail, and she went above and beyond to help me come up with an alternate photo location in case it rained, as well as when our plans got scrambled the day of the wedding and we had to improvise for our "getting ready" photos and pre-wedding logistics. She and her assistant were so professional and my guests keep commenting about how legit our photography team looked. Dawn's also so easy-going, and none of the last-minute changes or hiccups on the day of seemed to phase her, which is so important for brides who are already stressed. Honestly, our pictures speak for themselves. Forget about choosing a favorite. I can't even pick a top 50!

Dawn is amazing!

We are so happy we picked Dawn to photograph our wedding. She did such an amazing job from start to finish. She did our engagement photos and wedding photos. My husband and I had never had professional photos taken before and were a bit nervous but Dawn was great and made it so fun and natural for us! She did a great combination of both candid shots and portraits. As well as capturing all the details in between. We had younger kids at our wedding and she was so great with the kiddos too! Dawn, thank you so much again! How you were able to capture our love so effortlessly and perfectly I will never know. We are so happy we found you!

We were lucky to have found Dawn!

Being from Miami and unfamiliar with most of the wedding scene in St. Augustine, I was a bit nervous when doing research for wedding photographers in the area. My groom and I knew what we wanted, and beyond beautiful portraits, we wanted someone who knew how to capture the organic moments of the day. We were so lucky to have found Dawn. We obviously saw how talented she is from the gorgeous photos on her website, but as we browsed some of her sample albums, we also saw how beautifully she captured the receptions. This is really what sold us. On the day, Dawn made us feel so comfortable getting into each pose and made sure to get everything on our very long list of photo requests. She is a joy to work with throughout the entire process. And, of course, the photos came out AMAZING. We can't stop looking at them even nearly a year later. We feel so lucky to have such a beautiful way to replay each memory in our minds. So, thank you to Dawn for making our memories last. One piece of advice? Don't skimp on a photographer. When you're looking to relive each moment of your wedding day, you don't want to look at ill-lit photographs or poorly shot portraits. You want someone who is going to capture the best of you and your partner so you can feel the way you did on your wedding day each time you look at a photo. If there were more than five stars on this page, I'd give it.

Daybreak Photography

Daybreak Photography was absolutely amazing. Dawn and Brad are top notch people, super fun and care about their clients' every need. They also stood in as unofficial day-of coordinators for us, to help the wedding and reception go smoothly. Daybreak's engagement session was intimately personal and amazing. We could not have asked for better people to document the most important day of our lives. We love Dawn and Brad, and would recommend Daybreak Photography for any wedding, engagement photoshoot, or family portraits. Just amazing!

Dawn is amazing.

I had followed Dawns work ever since I was in College and could not wait to hire her for our wedding. She is joy to have with you in the room and makes everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera. She captures so many details fo your day and so many good candids. She is super supportive of you doing your own twist on things on your day, she is open to different but always gets those timeless shot in as well. Also she is amazing at boudoir photography ! She makes you be 100% yourself in front of the camera. On my wedding say she was super aware and on top of everything all while making sure sure we were having the best time.

I'm serious - this is your photographer.

I consider myself very lucky to have stumbled upon Dawn and Brad at Daybreak Photo Co. From the very beginning of the process, Dawn has been helpful, informative and just a downright angel. When they day of my ALL OUTSIDE wedding came, Florida decided to be its temperamental self and On/Off POUR all day. There were gnats - so many that I was picking them out of my eyelashes and bangs. I was overwhelmed. I mean, my wedding set up was all the way down to plan C. Dawn and Brad calmed me down so much. I was worried that you would see my anxiety on my face, but everything was STUNNING. She and Brad took a less-than -ideal situation, and made it look magical. I could hardly believe my eyes when I received the album. So, not only did she help me hold it together the day of, but she managed to capture moments that made the sweetest photographs and memories. She found the beauty in it all... and I'll just say - her editing style is just so incredible. In a world where everyone's photos look so white washed, her warm undertones give your photos a romantic vibe that is so unique. I would recommend Dawn and Daybreak any day, any time and to any bride.

I got married in Newport, Rhode Island on 5/2/2014. I live in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania and Dawn and Brad live in St. Augustine, Florida. They made all the planning a breeze, even with all the distance! They were very flexible and responsive when I was booking their travel and hotel, I can't imagine anything going any smoother. They were gracious enough to fly up and photograph my wedding ceremony and reception. They did an amazing job! Dawn and Brad had previously done two of my sisters' weddings so I knew the quality and value I was going to receive. They proceeded to surpass my expectations! My photos are the most amazing wedding photos I've ever seen. Dawn stayed with the girls the entire day so she could photograph hair and makeup then getting dressed. Brad was with the guys while they got ready. We then did a first look and drove around the area to get pictures at different locations with the whole party. I had picked out some locations I wanted to use and Dawn and Brad made them work wonderfully! They were so helpful in deciding how to get the best out of the sites. Brad even climbed out on the rocks in the middle of the ocean with the guys! They captured every moment perfectly. I am so pleased to know that I have something this incredible to remember my wedding day for the years to come. I just wish we lived closer so we could use them more often for other events.

Daybreak studio was our dream photographers! We had a bad experience with a different vendor for our engagement pictures and were very picky when searching for a new photographer. Daybreak studio was absolutely what we had been looking for all along.

I couldn't have asked for better photographers for our wedding. Our family and wedding party still comment about how great our photographers were. They are very professional and came ready with poses in mind, which was great bc I hadn't thought of any. They were self starters- I didn't have to worry about their schedule or where they were. They were very organized and on top of things. They know how to work with light and our photos turned out sharp and beautiful. They traveled all the way to NC for our wedding because i had seen their work and didn't want any one else. I would
definitely recommend day break studios!

My wife and I live in Tennessee, and we chose St. Augustine as our wedding destination. We had a very small ceremony but knew that we wanted very good photos of it. With a lot of help from Google, we happened upon Daybreak Studios and could not be happier that we did. Dawn was very professional, very flexible, and most importantly provided beautiful photos of our wedding. The most amazing thing though, was the fact that she came back another day to take more pictures. The ceremony was Saturday evening, but it rained and we couldn't get the outdoor shots that we wanted, she came back Monday afternoon and shot for another hour. It was an incredibly thoughtful thing to do and she was more than happy to do it. She also provided us with several edited photos that night that we could use for our Christmas card. We wanted a few traditional portraits, but were much more interested in an artistic point of view and we got exactly what we wanted. We would highly recommend. Thanks Dawn!
