Magical Photos and Fantastic Experience
Darnell was everywhere all at once at my wedding. He got so many moments that I, as the bride, missed and did so beautifully. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a quality wedding photographer who is friendly, creative, and an absolute joy to work with. 10/10 Experience.

DSQ Photography is exceptional.
Darnell took our wedding photos in April of 2023; he was simply amazing to work with. He was professional, amazing at his craft, and worked really hard to understand exactly what we wanted. Darnell captured the beauty of our wedding and gave us perfect suggestions for how to pose, and I am someone who is not great at posing.

Beautifully In Love
I spoke with Darnell regarding wedding photos & at the time I hired another company and they didn't show up but I was blessed to get him to take these dope photos of Me & my Husband. He is cool, down to earth, very knowledgeable about what he does, & that is what I like about him. If you need a photographer for your big day you will not be disappointed.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
