Amanda Sent on 03/17/2020A true delight
I was so used to being behind the camera as a stylist that being the subject was a nerve-wracking idea. But with Dana my nerves were gone in an instant. It was just like hanging out with my best friend! Her calm go-with-the-flow personality made it easy for everyone to relax and enjoy their time. Dana caught all of those special moments - and some that I didn't even realize were happening! Our posed shots were easy, fun and beautiful, but those candid moments took the cake. There were some truly funny moments that we never would have known about, but are cemented in our wedding album for years to come.
When our wedding album finally arrived, I cried. It was so beautiful and it brought back all of those lovely memories. In addition to our album, we also ordered a large print of our favorite private moment by the rose hedge on the property. It hangs prominently in our living room and as cheesey as it may sound, it brings me so much joy every time I see it.
Working with Dana was a true pleasure. Her responses were always timely and concise. Her quality of work and attention to details were wonderful. And finally, she made a stressful day easy, enjoyable, and relaxing. And as a bride who planned the whole day on her own, Dana was exactly the person I needed to capture it all.Dana Kae Photography's reply:
Thank you so much Amanda! I had such a good time in Monterey for your wedding. From your beautiful styling (as usual) to a location dreams are made of - it was truly so beautiful and special :) -

Sarah H. Sent on 01/07/2023Perfect photographer for our outdoor micro-wedding!
We are so happy that we hired Dana to be our wedding photographer. Her photographs are absolutely stunning -- she has an amazing eye for light, color, and contrast. She was also a pleasure to work with -- the best combination of being present and directive when necessary, and hidden away to catch those candid shots. She made us feel completely at ease. The amount and quality of our edited photos far exceeded our expectations. She's also great with communication to make before/after the event run smoothly. I highly recommend hiring Dana to be your photographer -- I hope I have the opportunity to hire her again for another project! -

You Won't Regret Hiring Dana!
We hired Dana for our special day and are so glad we did! Our wedding was on the beach in September and of course a storm rolled in!
Dana was so communicative during the process - she was watching the weather like a hawk to see when we might get a break. She saw we'd have a break in the weather mid day (vs sunset which wasn't going to happen with the storm) and was great about offering suggestions without being pushy. She truly just wanted us to have the day we had planned. We moved the ceremony up a few hours and she was ready when we were!
Having her there really helped me relax and appreciate the crazy moment.
She captured everything so perfectly and gave us so much variety in our photos, we had the hardest time selecting favorites! Months later we are still so in love with our photos and are so grateful to her and everything she did to make our day memorable. -

STUNNING! We knew from the beginning that Dana was a good choice but we were absolutely blown away by how beautiful our wedding photos turned out. Words just can’t do it justice. Dana is an absolute delight to work with and makes you feel so relaxed and comfortable. There was a perfect mix of traditional posed photos and fun candid photos. I also did a Boudoir shoot and it was beyond my expectations. Dana is a true professional and talented artist and would absolutely recommend her to anyone. -

Authenticity and beauty
We can't say enough good things about our experience with Dana. It's been almost a year since our wedding and I still love flipping through the photos and reliving the little moments through the pictures. Dana wasn't afraid to experiment and capture unique candid photos that really stand out. -

So lovely to work with Dana!
Dana was the photographer for our intimate wedding and I am so happy with the experience. The photos are the perfect mix of serious, emotional, goofy, and fun. She perfectly captured the day as I remember it. She has a beautiful presence-- a great mix of cheerful and calming. Two characteristics that are much appreciated on a day where there can be a lot of chaos and stress. I would recommend Dana to, well, everyone. Thank you for your beautiful work, Dana! Our families will treasure it forever. -

Authentic people person!
Wow, what a perfect fit. Dana was such a real human, which I so appreciated. It was a tiny pandemic wedding ( it was just 6 of us including Dana) in our backyard. So to have someone be part of such an intimate ceremony, having someone be authentic was so important to me. Also, DAMN good photos. I felt like a babe! -

Honestly getting married is a lot of work, and vendor selection is one of the most important parts to making your day seemless. Dana was incredible to work with! She made herself available to us the entire planning process and even after for any questions or changes to the day we wanted to go over. We never had to worry about anything with her and she was a huge part in making our as special as it was. Thanks Dana!Dana Kae Photography's reply:
You two are a literal dream. I laughed so much on your special day. Thank you for choosing me - it was truly such an honor!!
Xoxo,

Dana was an absolute dream to work with. She was always early, incredibly friendly, and our photos look fantastic. Not to mention that while walking around Seattle in my wedding dress my bustle loop ripped - she was able to fix it with a needle and thread! I also did a boudoir shoot with her, and even though I was very nervous she made me feel extremely comfortable, and my husband loves the photos. I can't recommend her highly enough.Dana Kae Photography's reply:
Who knew making jean purses at 9 years old would pay off like this! So happy I could help make the day seamless (lol). It was a pleasure to work with you two :) -

Dana was AMAZING to work with. From the very beginning, she helped us plan out the hour by hour timeline and knew exactly what we needed to make time for while answering all of our questions about what to expect the day of. Honestly, she felt like so much more than just our photographer. She even calmed me down the day of while I was getting stressed out during pictures. Love her work as well, our pictures turned out beautifully! Will definitely be using her again for family photos ect.Dana Kae Photography's reply:
Such a pleasure to work with you two!! Already can't wait for the next one. You two are amazing.
Xoxo,

Alice R. Sent on 06/08/2020Utterly amazing
I don’t have enough words to describe how wonderful it was to work with Dana for our wedding. She understood exactly what we were looking for. We had a very casual wedding at city hall and Dana captured our day perfectly. It was rainy and windy (thanks Seattle) but that made the photos so atmospheric and Dana caught some such special moments on camera. -

Dana was the only vendor that I hired as an independent contractor rather than just going through the wedding planner. And I am so very happy I did. It's been 5 years and my heart still sings with joy for how well these shots came out. Since we had our wedding in the San Juan's we used minimal decorations and relied heavily on the beauty of the nature surrounding us and Dana did a fantastic job of tying it all together. I was particularly impressed with her ability to coach my husband on how to pose for a nice shot without forcing it. Thank you Dana! I love my photos so much!Dana Kae Photography's reply:
Thank you so much Jessica!! It means the world to me that you trusted me to do this for you. I had SUCH a blast working with you both and your pictures are STILL some of my favs.
Xoxo,
Dana Kae
