    The Best Around

    Dan was the BEST! We are so happy that we came across his name!! Dan isn’t just a photographer, he is also a coordinator and gets everyone in the right place at the right time. Everyone who shared our special day with us told us that Dan was the most impressive photographer. Those comments continued to come in from guests of all ages! We seriously can not say enough wonderful things about Dan and his assistant. They captured the entire day! We would highly recommend working with Dan if you have a historical venue since he knows how to work with the moody lighting. A picture is worth a thousand words and he was able to capture everyone’s excitement and love. What an amazing photographer!!!

    Dan is the best!!

    I can't say enough nice things about how great it was to work with Dan for our December 2023 wedding at Willowdale Estate! He was extremely professional and organized while also being such a kind and calming presence throughout an extremely hectic day. After our initial meeting with Dan, we knew we had nothing to worry about on our wedding day. He worked so well with our schedules and coordinated with the venue staff to ensure we met all of our timelines. Our friends and family felt so relaxed and at ease around him, which definitely came out in the photos. The final photos were not only beautiful beyond anything we could have dreamed of, but they were also so joyful and perfectly embodied how I want to remember my wedding day. Hiring Dan was possibly the best decision we made for our wedding, and I genuinely can't recommend him enough!

    The very best!

    We feel so incredibly fortunate that we found Dan for our wedding day. He was an absolute pleasure to work with throughout the entire process - from the very moment we reached out to him until he emailed our pictures, and everything in between. The day of the wedding was filled with nerves on our end, and Dan put us at ease making us feel so comfortable. He brought out such genuine smiles and laughter in us that came through in all the pictures, and we had so much fun with him. He has such a calming presence, while at the same time having an infectious energy that kept us going and laughing all day. We had a LARGE wedding party.. about 25 people to be exact! Our wedding party was amazed by how fast and efficient he was, and that he was able to get all the perfect shots in with such a chaotic bunch. The pictures came out so beautiful and beyond anything we could have imagined. And we have to mention the turn around time.. we heard some horror stories from other couples on getting wedding pictures back from their photographers. Dan got us back our perfect pictures before we were even fully recovered from the wedding! We could not be happier and would recommend Dan and his team to absolutely anyone!!

    The BEST wedding photographer!

    Working with Dan is an absolute pleasure - we can't recommend him highly enough! We initially hired Dan to capture our engagement photos, and knew right away that we wanted him at our wedding. His photography is gorgeous, thoughtful, and creative. He has an eye for details and for capturing moments that are unique and beautiful. Beyond his work, he's also an amazing person to interact with (professional, calm, warm), which made us (and our friends and family) feel fully at ease in front of the camera throughout our wedding day!

    Pick dan! He's perfect

    Stop searching- this is it. From beginning to end, Dan makes the entire photography process seamless. Not only that, Dan goes out of his way to just be a kind and thoughtful human being. Constantly reminding us to enjoy the moments together and truly experience our wedding day together. The way Dan treated us on our wedding day is something every bride and groom should enjoy. Dan is professional in every way and his turn around time was miraculous! We (and every guest/family member) are obsessed with the work product from Dan and will be crying over them forever. Thank you to Dan and his assistant Kayla for helping make our day perfect!

    Amazing Wedding Photographer

    We can't stress enough how happy we are that Dan was our wedding photographer. He (and his 2nd, Hayley) were everything you could want in a wedding photographer - knowledgeable, professional, courteous, organized, punctual, responsive, friendly, and easy to work with. He went above and beyond, assisting with things outside his responsibilities (e.g. figuring out how to put on an antique piece of jewelry for the bride, assisting with other vendor issues, etc.), on top of the fantastic pictures that he took. If Dan is available for your wedding date, book him.

    100% Recommend!

    Dan, from the first time we reached out to him, was 100% perfection. My (new) husband and I are not super comfortbale in front of a camera, but wanted really great photos to remember our big day, and Dan was the perfect photographer to help with both of those! He was super easy and organized during the planning process, on wedding day, he was efficient, fun (made me and my husband laugh so much during photos) and just relaxed. The photos (which we received within 2 weeks of our wedding!!) are just PHENOMENAL! Dan's use of light - especially golden hour - and natural scenery makes the most perfect photos. We would 100% recommend him (and already have) to anyone getting married, or needing engagement photos!

    Breathless

    Dan made us feel so comfortable which helped to make sure the pictures weren’t stuffy - they were absolutely amazing and I could not have imagined how positive of an experience it was to have Dan do both our engagement and wedding photos. He is hands down the best out there!

    Best day of our lives

    Dan was amazing as our wedding photographer. He and his second shooter Liz were subtle, but somehow everywhere throughout the day, capturing all of the big and small moments so we can always relive the best day of our lives through their pictures. He perfectly captured the joy and energy of our day, and made us and all of our guests look stunning in the process. There were several of his shots that made me feel like a model in a magazine, and so many more that we will treasure forever as we remember our beautiful and perfect day. Thank you so much Dan and Liz!

    Amazing wedding photographer!

    Dan is the absolute best! We hired him for our wedding day and he blew us away with the results. On the day of, they were extremely organized and professional and helped guide us through the day with the timeline. He had a couple tricks up his sleeve to get us to smile and laugh which made for great photos! Working with Dan was effortless, he was communicative and honest from the start and very patient and calm as we navigated the inevitable chaos of a wedding day. Getting the photos back felt like reliving the wedding day all over again. I was sobbing through the gallery. I loved how he captured every single moment and MORE because as a couple bouncing from table to table, we weren't able to experience every moment of our day. Everyone I shared the photos with were blown away with how great they were. I would highly recommend Dan for all your photo needs, especially for a wedding. Thank you endlessly!!!

    Such an amazing experience!!

    We were pretty sure that Dan was going to knock it out of the park after he was recommended by our close friends who had incredible wedding photos. However, he managed to exceed our high expectations. Dan & Jason were both kind, genuine, fun, and made us so comfortable during our first look. Dan is truly a pro at making you slow down and appreciate the moment and each other during wedding portraits, and somehow managed to make time feel like it moved a little slower on the fastest day ever. Oh yeah-our wedding photos (that we got back unbelievably fast) are beyond amazing and I love them more every time I go through them. My only problem with the pictures is that I can’t pick a favorite one to share because I have about 180 favorites.

    Unforgettable photos

    Not only is Dan’s work breathtaking (Seriously. His eye for color and composition is unreal!), he is also an all-star human being and a great person to work with. Dan went above and beyond on our wedding to make sure he captured every happy detail. He kept the day running smoothly, and his adaptability and efficiency was unmatched!

    Trust me, hiring Dan is the best decision you will make for your wedding day! DO IT NOW!

    The Perfect Experience!

    Dan's photos speak for themselves in terms of beauty, but his professionalism, kindness, and fun are what made him a truly great addition to our wedding!! Standing and posing for photos can be really awkward and intimidating for people - but Dan kept us laughing and smiling and having fun through the whole process! I would 100% recommend Dan for your wedding - or any other event you need photographed.

    Absolutely amazing photographer!!!

    Dan and his partner were spectacular on our wedding day! They took amazing photos of us and captured every special moment. We also had a really fun engagement shoot with Dan. He always made us feel comfortable but also made us laugh and allowed us to have fun which came out beautifully in our photos. He has been so easy to work with. We HIGHLY recommend working with Dan!

    Amazing experience!

    We had the absolute best experience with Dan and his team! He made our wedding day so easy, relaxing and fun. He is organized and has great attention to detail. He is such a pro! We are so in love with how our photos turned out. Dan and his team truly captured the entire day, which we are so appreciative for. He has photographed both my siblings weddings, a baby shoot, and now my wedding- we are so lucky to have found Dan and would highly recommend him for any photography needs!

    The Best Wedding Photographer!

    We worked with Dan for our engagement and wedding photos. From the moment we met Dan, we knew he was the one for us! Dan immediately put us at ease during our engagement shoot, making us feel super comfortable and natural in front of the camera, so we were very excited to work with him again for the wedding. Dan and his partner were phenomenal on our wedding day. Dan was organized, efficient, and made taking photos in the 95 degree heat actually enjoyable! The photos he produced were incredible and captured all of the important moments of our day and so many moments we didn't see as well. His work is simply stunning and you will be in the best of hands when you chose Dan for your big day!

    Best Wedding Photographer hands-down!

    If you are looking for a state-of the art, good-humored and extremely professional photographer, look no further than Dan! Dan is an absolute gem of a human to have in your entourage of people who support you on your wedding day. Dan’s assistant photographer on the day-of was really amazing as well! (She took a lot of shots of our dog which we appreciated greatly).

    From the get-go- Dan made my husband and I so comfortable with the entire process. I had not been to many weddings and the whole “timeline of events” was a bit stressful to me. In the planning stage, Dan spoke with us and gave us excellent suggestions about what photos to take and when they might happen. This conversation really helped me visualize what the day would look like and it set my mind at ease. The wedding day was a whirlwind of a million things happening at once. Dan arrived early, “went with the flow”, asked us questions to bring a smile to our faces, and did tons of little things to help out that I’m sure were outside the realm of things your typical wedding photographer. For example- he offered to pin the boutonniere on our groomsmen and also found a really amazing spot to hang my dress!

    Lastly, I would just like to highlight the artistry that Dan brings. His shots are drop-dead gorgeous- from the amazing photos of my veil cascading around me to capturing the subtle and touching moments of my husband and I during our “first look”. Dan has an amazing eye for detail and is able to so beautifully capture the emotion of his subjects as well as the landscape. Having these photos provide us with an amazing archive to relive our day over and over again. We cannot be happier with his work!

    Highly recommend this talented, reliable, and organized photographer!

    Dan did our engagement and wedding photos and we cannot recommend him highly enough! In the months and days leading up to each event, Dan was incredibly organized and a good communicator, so we knew what to expect and how to prepare. He has a tremendous amount of knowledge when it comes to the ceremony and reception flow and order of events, so was able to provide some helpful and welcomed advice. He was also always on time (or ahead of time) with the deadlines he promised to share photos. This goes a long way towards helping to put a type A person like myself at ease. He helped to calm nerves the day of the wedding, gracefully rolled with last minute changes, and ensured that all of the family photos, couples photos, and group photos went seamlessly in a way that didn’t feel disruptive to the event. We got lots of compliments from family and friends about how friendly, professional, and overall wonderful both Dan and his assistant were to work with. They captured our wedding in an authentic and special way and we love our photos. Dan is a blast to work with and we are very grateful we found him!

    Absolutely the best

    Dan is nothing short of incredible! My husband and I first worked with him for our engagement session last year and had a great experience. Dan immediately put us at ease and was really fun, flexible (even driving down to NYC for the day!), and kind, so we were super excited to work with him for the wedding and had high expectations for the wedding photos. Still, we were blown away! The photos really convey the joy of the day and take us right back to what it was like to be there in the moment. We absolutely love them. I was particularly impressed by how natural the photos feel and by how many amazing images of our guests they took. Dan and his assistant Kayla were both a joy to work with. Our family and friends were very impressed with their efficiency and professionalism. Amidst all of the bustle of the wedding day, doing portraits felt like special alone time thanks to Dan's work process and the vibe he created. Dan also knows everything there is to know about weddings and was super helpful with planning the flow of the day and on the day of. Thank you so much, Dan!

    Amazing!

    Dan is absolutely INCREDIBLE!! We couldn't have chosen a better photographer for our wedding- everyone LOVED him and couldn't stop talking about him! They still can't! We had a winter wedding, so it was freeeeezing outside during our photos. Dan and his second shooter braved the elements with us and delivered fantastical snowy photos.

    We knew Dan already from our engagement session - so it was wonderful having him back for our wedding. He is super easy to get along with, made everyone feel instantly at ease, kept us on pace our entire day, and was always willing to go the extra mile. Our wedding gallery came within TWO WEEKS after our wedding and we have been obsessing over them ever since. THANK YOU SO MUCH DAN!

    Must hire Dan!

    Dan was very responsive in what we were looking for in a photographer. We had a great meeting with him to go over the photos that we wanted to makes sure were taken and were impressed with him immediately. The day of event itself was great. He made us feel very comfortable and made the process of wedding photos very personable. He took the time to make sure that special moments were captured. He and his associate were a joy to work with and very professional. We recently received our photos back and love them, and the turnaround time promised was kept. Dan Aguirre exceeded our expectations and we highly recommend him.

    Absolutely AMAZING!

    My husband and I hired Dan and his assistant, Julie, to photograph our October 3rd wedding at the Crane Estate in Ipswich, MA. We were NOT disappointed. After receiving his name from a friend about two years ago, I had heard that everyone loves Dan--guests, wedding party, couple. This could not be truer! As his website states, Dan treats every wedding with the unique approach it deserves. Not only did he capture all of the traditional shots, he also captured the fun moments, too! He was extremely accommodating with our guests needs and worked well with our videographer--someone with whom he had never worked before! I can't say enough about Dan and his assistant, Julie. I would especially recommend him if you have a unique venue like the Crane Estate because Dan knew all of the special places to get the perfect shot. DO. NOT. WAIT. Book him right now!

    Dan is an absolute GEM!

    When looking for wedding vendors, I was most picky about our photographer. I knew I wanted someone who was artistically talented, but also a nice person, and someone who I could trust to take control on our wedding day and make my vision come true. DAN IS THAT GUY! He did an absolutely INCREDIBLE job on both our engagement and wedding photos. Like the kind where you love every single photo you literally cannot pick a favorite, because then your favorites list is 1,000 photos long. He was amazing throughout the entire process - always professional, communicative, reassuring, and on time. My now husband is not a fan of being in pictures, and Dan made him comfortable from the first minute we met.

    On our wedding day, Dan kept everything running on time, and got every single photo we wanted with time to spare because he is so organized. He picked the perfect spots for gorgeous backgrounds. His photos are just....to die for. He has such a good eye and really captures every single moment of the day. His package included unlimited time on the wedding day, so he was there from start to finish, a second photographer (Jason - who was also incredible!!!!), and you get your pictures delivered to you in less than 14 days. Seriously, does it get any better??! I cannot recommend Dan enough! If you find him with your date available, DO NOT WAIT - BOOK HIM IMMEDIATELY! He is the absolute best. Thank you Dan (and Jason) for giving us some of the most precious photos we will ever have. We cannot thank you enough for everything!!!! - Kelli & Siavash
