A fantastic team!
Working with Danny and Julia was an absolute delight from start to finish! From our first meeting, they demonstrated incredible professionalism and a genuinely warm presence that made us feel instantly at ease. Their expertise and attentive nature were evident throughout our wedding day, capturing every significant moment with grace and efficiency. They are a fantastic team—both friendly and exceptionally skilled, ensuring that everything went smoothly. Even though we are still eagerly awaiting the final photos, the experience on the day was so positive that we are confident the results will be nothing short of spectacular. We highly recommend Danny and Julia to anyone looking for photographers who can make your special day both memorable and enjoyable.Working with Danny and Julia was an absolute delight from start to finish!

We Love Danny!
We loved working with Danny and his team. Danny did our engagement photos as well as our wedding photos. He's so professional, but also super friendly and easy to get along with. We picked him originally because his editing style is super unique and beautiful, but we found that his personality is another bonus we discovered.
The reason why you should definitely pick Danny for your photos is: 1. It's actually really important to have a photographer who knows how to set you up for good shots that are also candid looking. Danny gives really great direction and is able to guide the whole bridal party into cute poses that look great in the photos. 2. Danny is also...We loved working with Danny and his team.

Danny gives really great direction and is able to guide the whole bridal party into cute poses that look great in the photos. 2. Danny is also really fun, he does this thing where he makes hilarious comments and is just constantly laughing/chuckling, which makes everyone in the photos laugh as well. This results in super candid photos that looks great. 3. Danny works really hard for you! Our first dance was really animated and some of our friends were taking video and you could see Danny and his second shooter sprinting across the room to try to get the best shots. 4. Danny's editing skills are super unique. When we were looking at photos from other photographers, they all started to blur together and the styles all felt really similar. Danny's photos definitely stand out. He's really great at taking a whole bunch of styles of photos (zoomed in, zoomed out, dramatic, sweet, etc.) and then his editing style is so clean, clear, and beautiful. He really has a good eye for photography and photo editing.
We really love Danny and highly recommend you to pick him to be your photographer. We will definitely pick him for any future occasions that we have! -

Best Decison I made
Danny & Julia deserve over 5 stars.
Before our wedding, Danny spent time to went through the wedding day timeline, photo tools we need, lighting, and preferred photo style. He confirmed all the details before the wedding.
During my wedding (it was a full day). Danny & Julia spent each and every moment capturing my wedding details and a great guide on what I should do. (I'm a photo numb)
They captured numerous pictures and sent me everything. All photos, color corrected photos, well-edited photos were sent to me in a timely manner.
I love my photos!!!!
I highly recommend them based on how professional and how amazing the pictures are.Danny & Julia deserve over 5 stars.

Best photographer!
Danny and his wife are the best!
My wife first found Danny though seeing his work in person and upon seeing it myself, I completely agreed; this was the style we were looking for to capture our special moment. During these years that we've worked with Danny (our wedding had to be postponed due to the pandemic), Danny was extremely professional and went above and beyond to our expectations. Whenever we had a question, he would always answer promptly. It wasn't just prior to us choosing him, but more importantly after the fact we had signed the contract.

Danny is super understanding of the unfortunate circumstances surrounding the world to this day. We were extremely grateful that we were able to move our wedding to a new date with no additional cost.
On the day of the wedding and engagement shoots, he came prepare with poses and timing for the best photos. Though our wedding day ended up on a predominately over cast sky, he was able to improvise on the spot what new poses/locations to take photos. While we were saddened we didn't get the "golden hour shot" due to mother nature, we got something even better. We used my racecar as a prop and we got some really nice dramatic shots!
We would highly recommend Danny to anyone looking for a professional wedding photographer. -

Best Photographer!!
If I could give 10 stars, I would! Danny and Julia went above and beyond for us to make my husband and I feel special on our wedding day. This was one of the best decisions we ever made choosing Danny Dong Photography for our intimate wedding.
Due to COVID - 19 we had to cancel our wedding in San Diego and were left scrambling to find what we could do to try and have it on the same day as planned.

Originally, I reached out to Danny Dong when we were shopping for a photographer and I was sad to hear he was booked on the day we needed. Although, I let him know he was our first choice and if anything changed to please let us know. He called me right in time and let me know he had a cancellation that day and was able to shoot our wedding! This was our first time having professional photos done and they made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. Danny and Julia were so patient and accommodating especially with me being a late bride and needing to extend our time. Our pictures came out more beautiful than I could have ever hoped for!
Thank you Danny and Julia for making our wedding day so special and creating gorgeous, lasting memories that we will be able to share and view for years to come. -

Unprofessional. Deceiving. Stay Away.
When we booked Danny in December 2019, it was because we absolutely loved his work. However, we recently realized how duplicitous he is. When we initially expressed interest in his services, he was very responsive, usually responding in 1-3 days. After securing Danny for his services, and particularly after notifying him of having to cancel our December 2020 wedding, he became evasive, taking weeks and even months to respond. In fact, he has become so unresponsive that he has chosen to ignore my last few emails, which specifically address his contract.
As our other vendors agreed, Covid-19 was an unforeseeable event that clearly qualifies as an "Act of God" or a "Force Majeure." Danny's contract specifically references these...When we booked Danny in December 2019, it was because we absolutely loved his work. However, we recently realized how duplicitous he is.

In fact, he has become so unresponsive that he has chosen to ignore my last few emails, which specifically address his contract.
As our other vendors agreed, Covid-19 was an unforeseeable event that clearly qualifies as an "Act of God" or a "Force Majeure." Danny's contract specifically references these as valid reasons for refund. As the local government actions were becoming unpredictable in response to Covid-19, we informed Danny in June 2020 that there was a possibility that the pandemic may not allow us to hold our wedding as planned. By August 2020, with the ongoing public gathering restrictions issued by the Public Health Department, we had to make the difficult decision to postpone indefinitely since it would be impossible to proceed with our wedding as scheduled. Nevertheless, Danny argues that this cancellation is purely voluntary.
In an attempt to compromise, we initially considered rescheduling our wedding. Despite asking for Danny's 2021 availability, he never provided this requested information. Regardless, it is unclear when the pandemic will end, making it unclear when it will be safe to plan and have a wedding.
For this reason, we agreed to Danny's second option, to open up our original wedding date to others. This seemed reasonable since neither Danny nor we would lose any money. Five months later, he informs us that this was actually impossible since he did not open up our original date to other couples. He had given us the option, but he never actually attempted to fill the date.
We have tried multiple times to resolve the issue of our deposit with Danny, but he has been very difficult with us. All of our vendors were very understanding and returned our deposits, all except for Danny. He is deceiving and refuses to follow his own contract. We advise others to stay away from him. -

Best photographer ever!
We choose Danny Dong as our wedding photographer based on reviews, photographers style and friends recommendations. We could not have been happier with how the whole experience turned out! From our initial email to Danny, he’s been the most responsive at answering all of our questions and getting back to us promptly. He was able to meet with us a couple of times before the wedding: first meeting, going over contract and details to finalizing the timeline of the big day. He gave us many recommendations specifically about the wedding venue that was so helpful in capturing the essence of our day. We were amazed at how the pictures turned out!!!!!

Amazing wedding photographer!
A+ Photographer. Our wedding was about 10 months ago - and now that the dust has settled - the only memories of our special day are our pictures and videos. Danny was a pleasure to work with, on-time, professional and flexible with great attitude. He mastered outdoor venue, family portraits and indoor barn (little to no indoor lights) beautifully. Every time I look at my pictures, I feel like I’m reliving our day from start to finish. Thank you so much, Danny, for capturing our special day, every moment and expression is priceless, and if I were to plan our wedding again (or any wedding), I would prioritize hiring Danny and his team in a heartbeat.A+ Photographer.

Glamorous, breathtaking wedding photos
Danny's pictures are breathtaking! When we first started looking at different photographers online, his pictures blew us away and we knew he was the one for us. He does book up quickly so he was actually the first vendor we secured right after our venue.
We booked him for our engagement photos and for our wedding taking place in the October 2018. He was easy to work with and very responsive via email and text. As with most engaged couples, it was our first time and we needed a lot of guidance and ideas for all aspects of the wedding.

As with most engaged couples, it was our first time and we needed a lot of guidance and ideas for all aspects of the wedding. He provided great ideas and resources for outfits for the photos, poses, props, locations, and also gave his recommendations for other vendors at various price points we could work with within our budget. Danny and his colleague Jimmy were so sweet and patient during our engagement shoot and captured all of the shots we wanted and more. He got the engagement pictures to us quickly and we were able to get our Save the Dates out promptly.
For our wedding, Danny and his colleague Jeffrey showed up promptly and immediately got to work. We did the traditional Chinese door games in the morning and had tons of people just in and out of the house with crazy antics going on. But he knew exactly where to be and when to get all of the important shots, without getting in the way of anyone or interrupting any important moments. The best part is he needed no direction and never added to the stress of the day by asking me questions or needing anything from me. He and Jeffrey worked seamlessly with the wedding party and it also helped that he could speak Chinese to my parents and other relatives.
Our wedding photos are gorgeous and everyone we know raves about them. The post editing he does really makes the photos and colors pop. I wanted glamorous, high style shots for our wedding and he delivered! His style is definitely distinctive but my husband and I love the way the photos turned out. If you're looking for a more natural, relaxed vibe to your wedding photos, he may not be right for you. But for the highly stylized, artistic shots, he's amazing!-

Danny was the photographer for our wedding. We knew he was amazing from his work during and after my friends' wedding last summer. My friend's husband is an amateur (but serious) photographer, so we knew Danny Dong must be spectacular to have passed his extensive research on wedding photographers. During our various venue visits, one name also kept showing up consistently all over the Bay Area, and that was - you guessed it - Danny Dong.

Danny was very responsive prior to the wedding. On the day of, he arrived early and was just absolutely incredible throughout the long 9-hour session that we were fortunate enough to have him for. He was wonderful with my parents, my bridal party, and of course, us. He found the best lighting, the best angles, and the best spots at the venues for beautiful pictures. The time he spent putting into taking just shots of the wedding shoes and the rings really reinforced what we already knew about his professionalism and creativity.
My husband and I aren't exactly the kind that know much (or anything) about posing for photos, but Danny was patient, funny, and positive throughout the whole time. My friend's husband said it made his day during the reception because he got to sit Danny Dong, because he is just such a big deal (but oh so very nice, humble, and an absolute pleasure to work with).
Highly recommended. Thank you, Danny! -

Danny is such a privilege and pleasure to work with! Always kind, helpful courteous, professional, and even very personable! We are still in awe of all the many beautiful moments Danny captured of us during our engagement photo shoot. My fiance and I don't know much about posing and Danny is such a wonderful guide and instructor! Not to mention he has such brilliant ideas on the spot and incredibly artistic eye for great photos. We had our engagement photos scheduled during the weekend of Memorial weekend and each one of our SF locations were packed with people!

We hope you may be as lucky as we were to work with Danny and get to enjoy amazing photos with our loved ones. Thank you for everything, Danny! -

I can't even put into words how breath taking and speechless my husband and I were when we saw our pictures. It's one of those moments where you just pause... and makes you go back and relive your wedding day again. That's exactly what we wanted our photos to be - and Danny and Julia captured that beautifully.
Even when comparing photographers, we were always drawn back to their work and ultimately decided to reach out. Danny and Julia were one of the first wedding decisions we made because we just KNEW they were meant to shoot our wedding.

We booked an engagement session as well as our wedding and both times they were professional and just overall fun to work with. (It was freezing cold on BOTH days but you couldn't even tell from our photos.) They really do make you feel like rockstars and all that awkwardness or shyness just goes away.
Your wedding photos should 100% be an INVESTMENT because that's what you'll have to look back on. We are so glad to have worked with photographers as talented and passionate as they are!!-

We first met Danny to discuss the photo packages. Right off the bat we found Danny to be VERY knowledgeable and personable. We looked over his work and found them to be absolutely AMAZING. By the time my wife and I got to the car in the parking lot, we decided that there was nothing to think about and to book Danny right away. We did just that by immediately returning to let Danny know that we would love to work with him.

Our first engagement with Danny and Julia was for engagement shoot. Danny suggest a winery in Napa would we could not have chosen a more beautiful setting. We did not know what to expect since my wife and I are camera shy. However literally after the first 4 clicks on the camera my wife and I felt naturally comfortable. We loved all the photos that taken that day. We felt like models and did not want it to end. Danny and Julia in a very short time able to capture the right angles, lighting, holistic scenery, and our best natural moments.
The big day can and will be very stressful. There are a thousand things to think about at the same time from guests, family, and vendor preparation. Having worked with Danny and Julia for our engagement session, we felt very comfortable right away and just picked up where we last left off. We were impressed with Danny and Julia’s ability know when to take the shots, how comfortable they made our family feel during fam pics, and how they practically made themselves invisible the whole day. I informed Danny prior about surprise fireworks for my wife, a surprise to everyone. There were only seconds to capture this moment and Danny perfectly captured the moment of my wife with all our guests. It is the one moment in -

We worked with Danny and Julia on our wedding in Napa, CA and we had a great experience working with them. Prior to the big day Danny called us multiple times to discuss our vision, important shots that we wanted to make sure to capture, and how the flow of the day was going to go. We discussed capturing some candid photos in addition to Danny's signature artistic style.
On the day of the wedding Danny and Julia captured every moment including plenty of candids. More impressive was their ability to work around all the amateur photographers scrambling to get shots on their phones.

Throughout the wedding Danny and Julia kept us on track for prep, ceremony, sunset, and reception photos. When the photos finally came out we were impressed by how good we looked in the photos as not just the signature edited ones, but even the basic color corrected photos looked like they came out of a magazine.

Would give 10 stars if I could! Danny and Julia were encouraging, professional, and calm. We felt completely at ease with them and the photos were even more beautiful than we could have hoped for. We will cherish these photos for decades to come. Thank you!Would give 10 stars if I could! Danny and Julia were encouraging, professional, and calm.

Danny and Julia covered our Chinese tea ceremony and wedding in June, and we absolutely love our photos! We chose Danny and Julia because their portfolio was consistently great through both indoor and outdoor venues, and the whole range of lighting conditions, from bright daylight to nighttime. Danny and Julia are extremely professional, and they were really helpful and always willing to answer questions. We were quite unsure of our wedding timeline going in as we had a schedule that included door games, another Chinese tradition, in addition to the American wedding traditions. Danny sat with us and helped us create a timeline to make sure we had enough time for photos at all of our events.

Danny and Julia are extremely professional, and they were really helpful and always willing to answer questions. We were quite unsure of our wedding timeline going in as we had a schedule that included door games, another Chinese tradition, in addition to the American wedding traditions. Danny sat with us and helped us create a timeline to make sure we had enough time for photos at all of our events. Our venue was also a tricky one, not allowing us into our ceremony space until an hour and a half before our ceremony was scheduled to start. Danny and Julia worked really well even under that time pressure, moving us and our wedding party efficiently from location to location and getting wonderful shots of us and all our decor. They hadn’t worked at our venue before, so they also came with us and spent a half hour scouting the venue the day before. My husband and I are not used to taking posed photographs, but we didn’t have to worry about a thing. Danny and Julia were great at posing us and our wedding party, and their encouraging guidance put us completely at ease. Plus, they speak Chinese, which helped put my family at ease during the family portraits! -

2 scenarios:
- If your wedding is somewhere he has shot before, I want to share with you his own words. He said: I found if I have shot weddings at a venue before, my work will not be as good as the 1st time. I lose passion and excitement. For me to deliver the best work, I can't see the venue beforehand.
- If your wedding is a new venue to Danny, like ours was in the DC area, you may find my experience relevant.

- If your wedding is a new venue to Danny, like ours was in the DC area, you may find my experience relevant.
1. He became unresponsive after we paid in full. It took him over 1 months to respond to my email, and he blamed the delay on me not calling his cell phone directly. I didn’t want to call for he might be shooting others' wedding.
2. He fooled us into believing he would come onsite to do research but instead used his other clients he booked after us to force us to give up the prep part. Before we signed the contract, he told us that he only books 1 wedding per week. Per his request, we agreed to pay for his 3-night hotel stay and a local car rental. ~3 months before our wedding, he refused to coordinate with our other vendors, and refused to do even 30 minutes of preparation at the venue before the wedding. Then we found out he signed other weddings on both the west and east coasts before and after our wedding. If there was any flight delay, he would have missed our wedding, not to mention had no time for research or even a good night sleep before the wedding. I really don’t care if he books other weddings around ours, but I didn’t appreciate he said he didn’t do this prior to us signing with him and then he went ahead and did just that. Our wedding venue is an outdoor historic site, with 400 acres and multiple properties onsite for various wedding activities. Given Danny Dong has never been to this site or the DC area before, we wanted to connect him with our venue manager, who offered to show him around either the day before or on the wedding day before the wedding starts. Danny responded with the sentence I quoted at the beginning of this review. -

Danny and Julia were awesome and we were so lucky to have them as part of our wedding! They were accommodating, courteous, fun, and extremely talented. They also made sure that we got all the shots that I wanted. They worked well with our videographers, taking turns so both of them got the shots that they wanted. After working with Danny and Julia, I now fully understand why they're so renowned for their work. Their direction and vision were amazing. They were the first vendor we booked after our engagement and we are so happy that we made this decision. My husband and I can't wait to see the results! I'll be sure to update this review once we get the photos but I have absolutely no doubt that they will be breathtaking.Danny and Julia were awesome and we were so lucky to have them as part of our wedding!

When I was planning our wedding, the two most important things for me were (1) a wonderful photographer and (2) a venue where wonderful photographs could be taken. I meticulously browsed through pictures of many, many photographers before I accidentally stumbled onto Danny and Julia’s website. Just a few clicks later, I knew I had to have Danny and Julia at our wedding!
What initially attracted me about the photography was the beautiful editing and use of color. The photographs I looked at all had a way of capturing something very special that I didn’t feel in the other thousands of photographs I had looked at.

What initially attracted me about the photography was the beautiful editing and use of color. The photographs I looked at all had a way of capturing something very special that I didn’t feel in the other thousands of photographs I had looked at. Each photograph was like a work of art rather than a nice picture of someone else’s wedding. Then, when my husband and I met Danny and Julia, they were just so professional and nice that we booked them on the spot.
Danny and Julia shot an e-session for my husband and I as well as our wedding. Even though my husband and I have polar opposite interests, for both our wedding and e-session, Danny and Julia managed to create glamour while still preserving our personalities. Julia, especially, helped me with my styling at both photo sessions while Danny kept both my husband and I entertained.
I would highly recommend Danny and Julia for any bride to be (or groom to be)! Thanks Danny and Julia!
