    Amazing photos and service

    Danielle was amazing and I would highly recommend her. She worked with us throughout the wedding planning process to help us plan our timeline to ensure we would be able to take golden hour photos and accommodate the timeline required by the venue. She responded to my emails promptly and made sure we stayed on schedule throughout the wedding. She was extremely professional, nice, and so far the photos in the sneak peek have been amazing!

    You Found Your Photographer

    Great communication, direction, personality and images! What else could you ask for. We love the photos Danielle did for us at our wedding and we'll definitely reach out to her again when we want other portraits done.

    Amazing photography and amazing to work with!

    Danielle captured our engagement session and our wedding day. Her photography is beyond beautiful and she exceeded all of our expectations! She managed to convey the essence of our relationship and create a timeless collection of photographs that we will cherish forever. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer!

    Five stars isnt enough

    Every step of our experience working with Danielle was easy and excellent. She was flexible with booking and even reached out to me in advance to consider rescheduling our shoot when bad weather was expected. My husband and I were apprehensive about having our pictures taken but she made us feel so at ease. The photos themselves are absolutely stunning, she really captured who we are. We are extremely happy with the service and quality of photos we got and think she is an excellent value. We will be booking her again for all of our future photo shoots.

    An absolute dream!

    Danielle was an absolute dream to work with. From the moment she arrived at the venue she was so positive and really helped me feel comfortable and grounded. I didn't have a wedding planner, and Danielle made me a day of timeline. All of my guests adored her and kept telling me how enjoyable it was to have her taking photos. She completely got what I was hoping for from moment one- fully candid shots that captured how everyone felt purely in the moment. Given that June is peak wedding season, the turn around to get our photos back was incredibly fast and the photos are an absolute dream! I cannot wait to order and frame so many of them. I cannot recommend Danielle enough and will certainly be returning any time I need a photographer!

    Danielle is amazing!

    Danielle is truly an outstanding photographer and we are so grateful that we chose her to do our wedding photos! I had spent a long time researching possible photographers and Danielle's style stood out to us instantly. We really liked how she incorporates nature into her photos and we liked her photojournalism background too. Not only is she a very skilled photographer, but she was wonderful to work with for the wedding. I'm never very comfortable in front of a camera, but I felt instantly at ease with her; she has a very calm presence and was so easy to work with throughout the day. We are beyond pleased with our wedding photos--they capture the story of our day beautifully. It truly is worth it to find a photographer you connect with and whose style you love--we are SO pleased we found Danielle. I hope we can work with her again someday!

    We loved working with Danielle! She was so willing to work with us to capture every moment. I couldn't be happier with how our pictures turned out. She's professional, knowledgeable, and so fun to be with! I would recommend her 1000x over

    Romantic - elegant - dreamy - gorgeous

    I won't lie, planning a wedding in the middle of a pandemic is difficult. With a limited guest list, there were many people who were unable to attend our wedding for safety reasons. Danielle was able to capture all of the beautiful moments, that we could then share with friends and family, to make them feel like they were there with us on our special day.
    My husband and I will continue to work with Danielle for any special life moments in our future. The ease of communication and the flow of her photo sessions ensure that you will be comfortable being yourself in your photos. We couldn't be happier with our engagement and wedding photos.

    The best!

    We had the most amazing experience with Danielle! She really excels at capturing genuine, joyful moments and at taking STUNNING photos. She sent us a breathtaking sneak peek the day after our wedding so we could share with our family and friends on social media, such a nice touch. In addition, she delivered the full gallery before the expected date. We just couldn't be happier with the photos we received. I HIGHLY recommend her for your wedding.

    Highly Recommend for Micro Weddings!

    Danielle did amazing work for my micro beach wedding. She was calm, collected, respectful and very professional. As an added bonus, she had previously shot an elopement at the house we rented and had great insight on the best ways to capture all the important things/moments. I would definitely recommend her.

    An Intimate Elopement

    We had the pleasure of working with Danielle for our intimate elopement. From the moment we met her, her warmth and professionalism put us at ease. Her approach is both relaxed and meticulous, making everyone feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera. Danielle was incredibly responsive and accommodating to our needs and preferences, ensuring that our vision for the day was brought to life. She exceeded our every expectation. As the only other person present on our special day, Danielle played an integral role in making our experience unforgettable; she wasn’t just a photographer, but a genuine part of our celebration. We are incredibly grateful for the beautiful memories she has preserved for us and the personal touch she brought to our elopement. The images she captured are stunning, each one telling a part of our unique story. Danielle has a keen eye for detail and natural ability to find the perfect shot.

    Exactly what we wanted!

    My wife and I wanted to have someone capture all the special moments without interrupting the natural flow of our wedding day.
    The last thing we wanted to do was stop and pose in the middle of something authentic. And we didn’t want our guests to be distracted by someone blocking the ceremony for a photo.
    Danielle was perfect for us. She was really nice and made us feel comfortable. She was patient with our group family photos and really brought out the best in us for our first look and couple photos .
    She didn’t interrupt anything and honestly I was so busy having a great time that after the ceremony she was there but she wasn’t jamming a camera in my face or anything.. she is really good at being unobtrusive to the event while capturing the raw emotion of the day.
    10/10 thank you Danielle!

    The best photographer around!

    If I ever have another event where I need a photographer, I wouldn’t even “shop around”. Danielle was above and beyond anything I could have asked for. The pictures are perfect, the price was reasonable (I’m honestly surprised it wasn’t more with how good the pictures are), and Danielle was a pleasure to work with. The icing on the cake is that she delivered these wonderful photos so fast!

    Danielle is amazing, went above and beyond!

    Danielle was amazing, my fiance requested for her talent during a surprise engagement and she went over and beyond to help including getting up at 5am and chasing down the hot air balloon he proposed in. She really let us enjoy the moment and felt like was there to capture it as it happened which was so nice. The pictures came out amazing I can not recommend her enough, will cherish these forever.

    Incredible photographer and experience

    Our entire experience with Danielle was amazing. Her communication was great the entire time and she answered all of our questions and really helped lower the stress that comes with planning a wedding. She even provided us with a schedule for the day of, which we found so helpful. Our photos are to die for and she made sure to capture every detail and get all of the photo combos we asked for (and ones we never thought to ask for). I cannot recommend her enough, she was truly a blessing to us and I would use her again in a heartbeat to capture any big moments.

    Our photos are so cherished and really look timeless.

    Thanks for everything Danielle!

    Felt like a member of our own family!

    Working with Danielle was effortless and fun from start to finish! She immediately set expectations to put us at ease and worked with us to find a package that fit our needs. The level of professionalism and the dreamy photos available on social media made the decision to work with Danielle a no-brainer. On the day of the event, Danielle came in with a list of recommended locations just from the quick drive up to the venue, taking the stress off of us. All of our photos turned out gorgeous, capturing our love and laughs on our special day. Can't recommend Danielle enough! We even plan to utilize her services for our future big moments. Thank you Danielle!

    Beyond amazing!

    We are so thankful that we chose to work with Danielle for our wedding photos! She was there through the entire process of planning and stuck with us through several changes in our plan (thanks 2020). One of the things that was important to us was to get our personal photos done at a super cool location before the wedding. When the first location fell through, Danielle came up with a plan B that did not disappoint!
    She was quick to respond when we had a question, kept us in the loop of what was happening, and was all around an absolute joy to work with and be with on our wedding day!

    Danielle really made our day memorable. She was everything you’d want in a wedding photographer. Being a former photojournalist, she really knew how to capture the best parts of the day while remaining almost invisible. Afterward we were saying things like, “She caught that! Awesome! I didn’t see her.” That was really cool. It’s really important to have great photos from your wedding so you can look bad at the event for years to come, but you don’t want the photographer to be the center of attention. Danielle was very, very good at being inconspicuous and non-intrusive.

    We cherish the photographs she made that day and highly recommend her services. She’s great! We don’t make our recommendation lightly and take referrals very seriously. You’ll be doing yourself a big favor by choosing Danielle!

    Danielle was awesome! She was super patient with my crazy goofy family. She took amazing shots and always looked for great photos. She took a photo of the sun between us that many of our friends has since wanted. I use her for all our pictures now.
