BEST wedding photographer!
Danielle was absolutely amazing to work with!! She did a great job of making us feel comfortable and guiding us throughout the entire wedding photography process. She is also amazing with people from different ethnic backgrounds. We come from an Ethiopian ethnic background, and we were very surprised with how well she was able to work with not only us but our family during our wedding at Shadow Creek. Danielle is extremely knowledgeable about all things relating to wedding photography, and we couldn't have asked for a better person to shoot our wedding. Our photos turned out to be soooo beautiful!!! Thank you Danielle!! -

Fantastic!
Danielle is incredible! She stuck with us through multiple postponements with COVID, and the day of our wedding she kept us and our families smiling and laughing putting us at ease and resulting in the most gorgeous photos that we will forever cherish. Can't recommend her enough! -

Most Helpful Photographer Ever
Danielle was amazing. She met with us multiple times, toured the venue with us, and was able to handle rain on our wedding while still taking excellent photos. She corralled our big families to keep us on schedule with picture taking. Danielle was amazing with my dress, she bustled it up in no time, leaving my bridesmaid amazed. She will go above and beyond to make your wedding day great and to give you excellent photos to treasure forever. -

Fantastic photographer and just a great person/team player
Danielle shot our August, 2021 wedding and our engagement photos in June 2021. We've seen some of our wedding photos so far and they are gorgeous and exactly what we wanted and her prices are certainly reasonable. More importantly, Danielle was an incredible part of our day and our wedding team and was fun to work with. She soothed any stress about timing on the day of and kept us laughing during the more cheesy photos. Throughout the day, she worked really with our coordinator to make sure the day ran smoothly and she also checked in our videographer who was newer to the wedding industry. We received multiple compliments on Danielle by our friends as well. She was great about helping people take photos on their phones during the reception and still getting the professional photos for us. While we were trying to get people on the dance floor, she and our DJ called everyone on the dance floor for a photo and then started playing one of our favorite songs to get everyone to dance.
During the engagement photos, Danielle made us comfortable and made sure we had fun with it.
Overall, her work is amazing but she is also just a fun and wonderful person to work with. We would hire again and will go back to her for any future professional photos. -

I can't say enough good things about Danielle! She was not only our wedding photographer but it felt like she was my day of coordinator all wrapped in one. She was direct but hilarious in guiding my friends and family to take the most perfect pictures. I got so many compliments from my wedding guests about how awesome and organized she was. I will be recommending Danielle to everyone I know! We can't thank her enough for helping to capture our special day! -

More than a wedding photographer
As soon as we met Danielle and saw her gorgeous photos, we knew she would be the photographer for us. She knows how to put you at ease and makes taking pictures feel natural. She is truly one of the warmest people and just speaking with her on the phone for a few minutes would brighten my whole day.
When we had to postpone our large wedding celebration due to COVID, Danielle helped us find the most perfect, beautiful spot in DC to have our mini-ceremony and was so flexible and helpful with the planning. We had the perfect day with our families thanks to her help.
I would recommend Danielle a million times over to anyone. She is amazing! Hire her and don't think twice! -

Look no further for your photographer- Danielle is amazing!! Not only is she an incredibly talented photographer, she is so professional, hard working, and the sweetest person ever! She took our engagement photos and shot our intimate, Covid style wedding in June. Despite multiple location/venue changes (due to the pandemic), Danielle quickly reworked the timeline and was so accommodating. I couldn’t have done it without her. Can’t wait for her to be a part of our large celebration in 2021!-

Captured Our Wedding Perfectly!
Danielle is a truly incredible and passionate photographer. Not only is she the sweetest person (making planning a breeze) with an easy-going personality (keeping you laughing even through the 1,000th photo) and always smiling (making it hard for you not to gleam even more brightly back at her), she is also clearly an expert at her craft, using unique techniques to create something truly special. My husband and I knew we wanted to work with Danielle when we say her ad on social stating: "The wedding should not be about the photos. The photos should be about the wedding." Danielle's work is a true testament to this statement - her photos are natural and authentic, capturing real moments instead of forced poses. Our wedding photos are full of emotion. Danielle didn't just capture our image, but our nerves, elation, and excitement as a newly married couple - they're raw and beautiful and we couldn't be more pleased. We cannot recommend Danielle enough!-

Best in the DMV
Danielle is the sweetest, most thoughtful and talented photographer we have ever worked with. She's easy going, a blast to work with and listened to and delivered exactly what we wanted in our enragement/ wedding photos. She is a star at corralling large families, sassy flower girls and chatty bridal parties. She made us so comfortable being in front of the camera. We are obsessed with all of our pictures and are so thankful she was there to capture such sweet moments. We will cherish our wedding photos forever and look forward to hopefully work together again in the future.-

Best vendor ever!
Danielle is the BEST vendor we had -- we cannot recommend her enough. She went WAY above and beyond before, during, and after to make our day perfect. We booked 10 hours with her, so we could do pictures around the monuments prior to the ceremony. She worked with us beforehand to plan out different routes and suggest good site locations and was flexible to make changes the day of (she even has a hookup at the National Gallery -- which worked out great because it was freezing!) It didn't feel like going to the sites with a photographer -- it felt like she was a close friend, which made our day so much more special. At the wedding, she also did not stop all night -- she took so many pictures following us around, but also getting great candids of guests -- she really captured the emotion of the night. She is extremely professional and worked well with various people in my wedding party who had various needs and requests. The pictures all came out amazing. Seriously, book Danielle for your wedding!!! -

Danielle is the best!
Danielle was hands down our favorite vendor at our wedding. We felt so comfortable after meeting with her before the wedding and she made me and my bridesmaids laugh even in the most tense of moments. She had great ideas about different shots and knew how to get me to smile and pose to look my best. My husband and I were absolutely thrilled with the way our pictures came out and all of our friends and family were so impressed. In fact, all of my guests even commented on how friendly and wonderful our photographer was. I felt like her prices were incredibly reasonable. I would HIGHLY recommend Danielle!-

Danielle is amazing!
Danielle is not only an extremely talented photographer - she is also a wonderful person who I absolutely loved having with me on my wedding day. She handled the big family portraits beautifully and made our bridal party have so much fun during all the photos. She always made me feel like she was trying to be true to us as a couple and capturing the best and most beautiful moments of the day while also being a true professional and keeping me on track with our schedule and events. -

Danielle is so amazingly talented and personable as a professional wedding photographer. We just received photos from her (in such a short turn-around time!) and so many of my friends and family have come back to me saying that they are magazine-worthy, and I agree! She does such an amazing job capturing the people and their emotions in her photos. She really captured the pure bliss and happiness that me, my husband, our wedding parties, and all of our guests felt on my wedding. She doesn't alter people to look unlike themselves--she really brings out the best in YOU in her photos!
One of the best things I can say about Danielle is her personality. She took the time to make sure she knew the names of not only me and my husband, but also all of our parents, siblings, and wedding party members. It really felt like such a personal experience and we all really appreciated her care and attention to detail. She was also so fun (and funny) that she really was a perfect fit into our day, rather than a photographer who was interrupting the procedures. Her price is also right, and she provides SO MANY great edited photos (way more than I was expecting, and all were great) so I would 100% recommend her to anyone and everyone looking for a wedding photographer!-

Wow. Just wow. Danielle's photos of our wedding day left us speechless. Each shot was better than the last. The first time I had seen her photos of someone else's wedding, I knew she was it. Her photos made me cry and I didn't even know the couple! She scoped out our venue prior to the wedding and she completely put me at ease. She captured the ethereal, historic, and gothic feel of our wedding but also the warmth, the love, and the utter and complete joy. We had a second photographer who was also wonderful and them working together captured all the best moments. Her and her team truly went above and beyond to help me feel calm and to get us the best pictures possible. I feel truly blessed and honored to have Danielle photograph our wedding. She is truly a lovely person and an extremely talented photographer! -

Danielle was amazing from start to finish. We originally met over Skype and she immediately put us at ease. She was easy to work with and quick to respond to our (many) questions. We had her do our engagement shoot and she made it easy with tons of great ideas of where to get the best shots. She got us our photos super fast as well and we had plenty to chose from for the Save the Dates. Prior to the wedding, we met at the venue and did a walkthrough together. Now for the day of the wedding. We chose to get a second photographer because we were each getting ready at separate locations. We paid a little extra to get Danielle for most of the day (I think we started around 11am, totally worth it). Then we went around DC and took shots at the Lincoln (it was cold, Danielle is so kind that she shared her coat to keep the bride extra warm) and the National Gallery of Art. Danielle was super prepared and had great ideas for what shots to take and how to make things efficient, while still getting all the best shots. She expertly managed our first look. At the venue she continued to take great shots of the rest of our families and made everyone feel at ease. Throughout the night she was always taking great photos and always in the right place at the right time. Most important was how positive and genuinely enthusiastic she was - you are going to take A LOT of pictures, having someone who makes it fun is essential. With Danielle you also don't just get typical photos (you get those, don't worry), you also get artsy instagram ready beautiful shots and angles that we would never be able to think up on our own. We loved working with Danielle and would highly recommend her to any couple looking for a great photographer. I also imagine she will cost more soon so book her asap! I honestly don't think she could have done anything better. THANK YOU DANIELLE! -

DANIELLE IS AMAZING. We worked with her for both our engagement photos & 10 Hour Wedding Day Package, and I can't wait until we have an anniversary to work with her again! She is creative, positive, fun, energetic, works hard to get the shot, and knows how to give direction in a way that makes everyone feel at ease and laugh in front of the camera. Also, she's great at getting the full variety of shots: detail, wide angle, urban vs. natural settings, candid vs. portrait. Most importantly, she's just a great person to be around and we couldn't have imagined spending our day with anyone else. Danielle goes above and beyond and we can't recommend her enough. -

Danielle was absolutely amazing from the very beginning. When I reached out to Danielle, she was very responsive and open for any and all questions. Booking with her was very easy, and she was extremely accommodating. We met at the venue a few days before the wedding and she gave me a timeline for photos, which was very helpful. They day of she was prompt, professional and fun. She worked well with our large group and I still have family members calling me talking about how great she was. I cannot wait to see how the shots turn out! -

LOVE LOVE LOVE Danielle! I can not say enough good things about her. She genuinely just wanted your special day to be as great as it can be. She works with you before the ceremony to make sure you are comfortable with her. She is one of the rare photographers that seems to capture everything but not be intrusive or in the middle of everything. -

We couldn't have asked for a better photography. She was able to handle all of our odd request and our unique quirkiness of our wedding party. She was event ready to bribe our young flower girl and ring bearer with candy so she could get the shot. She went well past photography with her professionalism. Everything from bustling my brides dress to the best way to cut the cake. She was the total package and I am proud to say that she was a big part of our day! -

Danielle is hands down then best photographer ever!!!!!! It's not just her photography that amazed me it's her personality too. I was one of those brides that panicked and was extremely stressed on the wedding day. Danielle was there for me, she was like my best friend! When I first met her I loved her personality instantly and knew this was the perfect photographer. I am very shy and always feel weird in front of a camera. Danielle made me feel extremely comfortable and confident. She showed me a few pictures on her camera and I was SHOCKED how beautiful I looked! It made me feel more confident. Danielle didn't leave me hanging on how to pose she showed me the best poses and they came out stunning. I felt like a top model! I will be hiring her for every big event I have. Shes professional, organized, easy going and best of all you get bang for the buck!
IF YOU DON'T HIRE DANIELLE REAL FOR YOUR WEDDING YOUR MAKING THE BEST MISTAKE OF YOUR LIFE!!!! <3

Danielle was awesome to work with! We live in a different state so I was nervous about having someone I wouldn't meet until the day of be involved in our entire day. My nervous were completely put at ease after our first skype conversation with Danielle. She was so sweet and professional that I knew we would have no issues. I can not say enough good things about her performance the day of. She arrived on time, gave excellent direction, kept us on schedule, was not obtrusive at all (but still got amazing shots), and the entire wedding party LOVED her. With her professional eye she was able to make my parents front yard look like a national park with all the greenery! Aside from the compliments I have gotten about how great Danielle was everyone is still raving about the incredible photos. To top it off she was reasonably priced! I would definitely recommend her to anyone who asked. -

Danielle is one of a kind. She was AMAZING and genuine throughout the entire process. We knew from our initial Skype meeting that she was going to be our photographer. She was extremely detail oriented and responsive, while maintaining a calm and professional demeanor. Booking our engagement session gave us confidence and reassurance in her abilities and natural talent for photography. -

From the moment we met Danielle, we knew she was the ONE. Her prices were ideal and her wedding package was exactly what we were looking for. We booked her for both our engagement and wedding photos. Danielle arrived early on our wedding day, she was beyond professional, organized and super prepared- she had a little fanny pack with everything in it!!! She went out of her way to ensure we were on time, helped my maid of honor pin her dress, pulled out a bobby pin to help button up my wedding dress. I mean, Danielle was incredible, most definitely, if not, one of the best vendors that we were lucky enough to work with. Our bridal party and guests are still raving about how over the top amazing she was. We just got our wedding photos and every single picture is stunning. Danielle is extremely talented and she definitely knows what she's doing. We loved her style and ideas during our wedding photo shoot. Her services are so worth it, don't waste anymore time and book her!!! -

If you're reading this, you're probably looking for a wedding photographer. It's a big choice to make, because photos are the one thing that are supposed to last after your wedding. If you're looking through photographers in the DC area and Danielle is available, I would honestly urge you to stop looking right now and just book her. Her pictures are amazing. Literally amazing. I have people who, upon seeing the pictures from my wedding, are asking me if she travels. No joke (Hey Danielle, let me know if you travel :)). Also, she worked ridiculously hard on the day of my wedding and managed to catch every moment. Seriously, she got pictures that I didn't even know she was there for (I was looking through all the amazing photos, like, she was THERE?!? How did she get that?!?) She's very nice and professional as well. As far as I'm concerned, she's the top of the line as far as what you can get for photographers in DC, and I don't say that lightly. More than that, she's just a really great and hardworking person - with calm personality to soothe your jitters on your big day. I'm completely happy that she was available for my wedding, and I wouldn't have wanted anyone else to get all the memories of my wedding - she made the pictures even more beautiful than I could ever have imagined. Thanks so much Danielle! -

My family is grateful to have found someone like Danielle for our wedding. She was incredibly patient, professional, and fun to have as part of our day. From our initial meeting, we found her to be very experienced and talented. After looking at numerous options and personally meeting with several other photographers in the area, it took us only minutes to finalize a contract with her. She was seamless in transitioning from our traditional Indian ceremony in the morning to our fusion reception in the evening. Our photos are beautiful memories and I hope to use her again in the future. I would highly highly recommend her services. -

My wife and I booked Danielle Real after having looked through hundreds of different photographers. Danielle took the extra step of setting up an initial meeting and consultation with us over coffee in Georgetown to learn a little bit more about who we are as a couple and how to best capture our big day. We liked Danielle's services and photography so much that we hired her for both our engagement and wedding photography which is the best choice we've made among all the vendors we hired. Of all the photographers we worked with, Danielle felt the most transparent, genuine, and caring. We felt that both with her pricing and the value we received from her services was excellent. After our wedding, we received all the digital images in a beautiful case with 2 USB drives in them. We have since used them to print out several 16 x 20 matte and metal prints that now sit around our new home. I would highly recommend Danielle to any couple looking for the best consultative and creative photographer in the Washington, DC area. -

Danielle was amazing. From day 1, she was professional, reassuring, and calm. I was very nervous about the timing of our pictures on our wedding day and it worked out perfectly. She was efficient, professional, and executed the day with grace. Our pictures are an amazing reminder of the best day ever. I absolutely recommend Danielle to anyone and everyone. She worked tirelessly all day to capture every moment. -

Danielle Real blew our expectations out of the water. She somehow handles the productivity of a full team of photographers on a single shoot on her own without breaking a sweat. We worked with her both on our engagement pictures and the wedding itself. There was not a moment that we weren't confident we had made the right choice and that we were in the right hands for making sure all the moments of the day were captured. We had plenty of reasons why a photographer may have issues staying on schedule from a huge wedding party size to groomsmen wandering off and she handled everything effortlessly while maintaining the highest level of professionalism. And of course on top of this her quality of work speaks for itself, absolutely top notch.

Danielle was a wonderful decision for our wedding photography! Since we lived further away from the DC area, Danielle offered to speak with us over the phone as many times as we needed in order to make our final decision. We are so glad we decided to hire Danielle as our photographer for our wedding! Her sense of humor, light-heartedness, and professionalism put everyone at ease and made the day even more fun than it already was. Her care for our families and our photo requests were very much appreciated. The value of Danielle's services and her pricing were more than fair and certainly made our decision easy (unlimited number of photographs throughout the entire event, 8 hours of work, digital prints available, and a lovely USB sent within two weeks of our wedding)! The photographs came out simply stunning - ethereal, whimsical, and creative. We look forward to working with Danielle for further projects.

I knew I wanted Danielle the moment I spoke with her over Skype. She was very sweet and cared about all the details of our wedding. We had a lot of little details at our wedding and she captured them all and more. We didn't expect so many photos but she delivered really well about 3 weeks after the wedding. I would highly recommend her to anyone! Thanks so much, Danielle! -

Highly recommend Danielle Real
I cannot express enough how amazing it was to have Danielle Real as our wedding photographer. Even in our early calls I could tell how passionate and detail oriented Danielle was and she did not disappoint on our wedding weekend! Her expertise at our venue was essential to helping the photos run smoothly and her positive energy helped us shine. I would highly recommend any couple hire Danielle Real for their wedding photography! -

Experience with Danielle Real Photography
We booked Danielle for our engagement session and April 2024 wedding. Me and my husband aren't confident in front of the camera and at our engagement session, Danielle made us feel so comfortable. At that moment, we knew we made the right choice for our wedding day! Danielle was an integral part of our planning process - happily scheduling calls as needed to help us develop our timeline, narrow down locations for photos, and even providing us with a detailed timeline and checklists of things to bring for photos. On our wedding day, Danielle ensured that we remained on schedule with our timeline, capturing all the photos that we wanted and needed in a short timeframe. She made an effort to learn the names of our wedding party and family and provided everyone with guidance and feedback in a fun and engaging manner to make sure every photo turned out great! We recently got our sneak peeks back and were so thrilled with how they turned out. We're looking forward to seeing our full gallery soon!
Danielle also provided a second shooter at no additional cost to us and he was absolutely fantastic as well! Chris handled getting ready photos of my husband and his groomsmen, making sure they stuck to the timeline, and getting them to where they needed to be - the hardest job of all. He was great to work with and captured beautiful images from different perspectives and angles that we wouldn't have gotten with just one photographer. -

Danielle is amazing!
Danielle is one of the most authentic, talented, and caring vendors we worked with. She made us feel so comfortable and at ease on our wedding day, and was always there to capture the perfect moment! She works with two different cameras, so we have so many different perspectives of shots to choose from. Danielle also had us go around to each table and take a photo with each of our guests, which my husband and I are so glad we have- if it weren’t for her so positively pushing us through each table and making it a fun activity we wouldn’t have all of these amazing shots! She is truly a gem of a human and worth every single penny. -

Danielle is simply delightful. She worked with us way ahead of the wedding, first discussing what kind of photography vibe we wanted (journalistic in our case). Six months before she went on a walkthrough with us at the venue to discuss the timeline - even while she was recovering from a cold!
The day of my wedding, she was so much fun to work with. She brings such a gleeful energy that you can't help but laugh (making for great photos)! She made sure to get the shots I specifically requested, while also capturing unexpected shots in the moment.
I've yet to receive my photos but I'm so excited to see them! -

To say that Danielle is an amazing photographer is an understatement; she is a truly gifted artist! My husband and I researched extensively for a photographer that we felt took photography to a new level and then we found Danielle. She is very professional and extremely kind. She knows exactly what she is doing and has a vision that comes through in her photos. Our pictures are amazingly beautiful!!! Thank you Danielle. -

My husband and I booked Danielle for our June wedding and it was one of the best decisions we made regarding vendors. She put us at ease, did exactly what we asked and her photos are stunning. I can't thank her enough for providing the most fantastic photos of our day. -

Danielle was our photographer and she was very good! She managed to take a picture of every single detail of the ceremony and gave us over 2000 photos. We're very glad she was our photographer and for the price, we'd recommend her hands down. -

We feel truly blessed to have found Danielle. Being transparent, we knew we had the chemistry we were searching for in our wedding photographer from the first Facetime chat we hosted with her, but, we had apprehensions about her being new to photographing the DC area (we were one of the her first weddings!) which held up our decision. We decided to move forward with Danielle for an engagement session to truly "test the waters" and from that moment onward, we knew there was no one else we would rather share our big day with.... so much so that we not only hosted our engagement session with her, but also our wedding photography and even a boudoir shoot (ladies, I strongly recommend you do this at some point in your lives, not just for your fellas but for yourselves. Danielle captures all your beauty and emotion inside and out with her shots. It was honestly an empowering experience.)
Danielle has an uncanny ability to make you feel comfortable from the very first time you work with her. She always compliments you while also coaching you into positions she knows you will be pleased with and that will look best in photos. She has a truly impressive skill and we feel delighted Danielle was the person to share in this important milestone with us. We know this is just the BEGINNING of our relationship with Danielle. We look forward to all the future life events to come and sharing them with her. There's no one else we'd rather capture the beauty and rawness of our lives with! -
