Our experience working with Dan was incredible. We booked him for our engagement shoot, and the photos came out amazing! Dan is professional, funny, and truly loves what he does. He got just about as excited as we did for the photos!

Dan offers feedback and direction in such a simple, straightforward way, and this created photos that felt effortless and candid. We are so happy with our photos, but really the entire experience was perfect.

Daniel is an energetic, kind, and endlessly creative photographer. He really took the time to meet with my husband and I before the big day to discuss our vision for what we would like our captured moments to be like. Dan seized so many creative opportunities for photos throughout the day and we ended up with one of a kind keepsakes that we will cherish forever. He brought such enthusiasm and great energy to the event. I typically hate having my photo taken but his warm demeanor and genuine passion have a way of putting everyone at ease. Daniel is absolutely the person to make your special day that much more special!

Daniel McCarthy captured our wedding day flawlessly. His photos are breathtaking, and his presence was both professional and unobtrusive. He understood our vision and delivered beyond our expectations. Highly recommended for unforgettable memories!

We are so happy we hired Dan to be our wedding photographer. He and Emma were professional, punctual and perhaps the most helpful was how they took charge of coordinating photos with family members and the wedding party. They took creative shots of the venue and wedding party, and they did a really excellent job of capturing both portraits and candids. Dan’s warm and friendly demeanor meant he got great smiles from everyone, and I particularly appreciated how we got on the dance floor and took fun candids that we enjoyed sharing with guests after the fact.

A wedding has so many beautiful moments, and as the bride and groom, it’s really impossible to witness them all. Dan and the McCarthy Visuals team made it so that we can relive every moment of our beautiful day. We love how he curated and edited the best photos from our special day, and we are forever grateful!!

I cannot say enough good things for the exceptional service provided by Dan!

From the inception of my proposal plan to the final moments, he went above and beyond to make the experience unforgettable.

Dan played a pivotal role in helping me scout the perfect location for the proposal, a private park in a busy city where we’d have a beautiful backdrop. On the day of the proposal, he remained inconspicuous in the location so that we could capture the genuine surprise on my fiancée's face, which was truly remarkable.

Dan not only orchestrated a flawless proposal picture, but also took charge of keeping the area clear of any people or onlookers ahead of time, allowing us to savor the moment intimately.

Post-proposal, Dan effortlessly transitioned into directing us for some post-engagement shots, capturing the raw emotions of the day. We went to a couple of different beautiful locations and took some of the best pictures I’ve personally been in! His professionalism, creativity, and genuine passion for his craft shone through every step of the process.

I wholeheartedly recommend Dan to anyone seeking not just a photographer, but a true artist and collaborator in creating lasting memories. Thank you Dan for turning a special moment into an everlasting work of art!

My husband and I were on the fence about whether to have a videographer. We are so happy we did! Daniel was fantastic! He was easy to work with and was very professional. We barely knew he was there that day, not distracting at all. We loved the final video. Daniel put it to an absolutely beautiful version of our wedding song and it was just perfect. He also did an “outtakes” video which we love just as much as the real video. We are so happy to have real time moments from our wedding to look back on. I cannot recommend Daniel enough.

We are over the moon with how great the photographs came out and how much fun we had with Dan as part of our wedding day. We had Dan do both a mix of staged photos before the ceremony and candids throughout the rest of the day / reception. The staged photos came out AMAZING - framed prints of them are going to be great Christmas gifts for our family members. Dan is so good at finding the right angle and lighting to make a photo look timeless. The candids he took were somehow even better - we got to see so many moments with our loved ones that we would have otherwise missed if we didn't have Dan join us for our day. All of our friends and family members made it a point to compliment us on "how awesome the photographer is!"

I can't possibly recommend Dan enough - he will unquestionably be a fantastic addition to your big day and will help elevate the feelings of joy while giving you the breath of relief knowing your photos are going to come out GREAT and you have nothing to stress about with Dan there for you.

We ended up booking Daniel somewhat last minute for our wedding. We didn’t think we needed a videographer but my dad decided we should do it. I am SO glad we did. Daniel was so professional and worked extremely well with our photographer. The final videos he provided will be cherished by us forever.
