  Highly Recommend Darshna & her team

  Dars photo did amazing job for our pre wedding photoshoot and wedding festivities. They are so nice and humble. Darshna and Bhavin are amazing and easy to work with. They made our wedding photography so much easier. They even traveled away from our wedding location for first look photoshoot despite of weather issues. Night before our wedding, weather got really stormy, and Darshna and her team managed to go through it all to show up on time next day. I truly appreciate their cooperation. They captured all amazing moments and our families can't stop talking about our wedding picture. I highly recommend them to capture your lifetime moments!!!!!! Thank you Darshna & Bhavin.

  Excellent Photography and Experience

  Darshana and her whole team were so much fun to work with! Their work is absolutely beautiful, professional, creative and captured such amazing moments throughout our events. From our pre-shoot to our reception, they captured such amazing moments of us and our families. Our goal was to accentuate the vibrancy of our formal wear and personality all in one. The whole team made us feel comfortable and made it feel as if they were part of our own family. In addition, they had such amazing communication, showed the highest level of professionalism and were always on time if not before. We had shown our families the pictures and they were in absolute awe. From capturing shots of us being silly to teaching us how to pose seriously (because my husband and I are super giggly). I cannot EMPHASIZE more on how much I recommend them! Their pictures will also bring you in awe. Thank you DARS Photography for everything!

  Fantastic Wedding Photographer

  We were incredibly blessed to have Darshana capture the special moments of our wedding. She was simply phenomenal. She quickly understood our dynamic as a couple and found ways to set up unique and personable shots that represented our chemistry. She was always in the right place to capture each moment and coordinated perfectly with our videographer and all family members. To top it off, she was incredibly professional, flexible, and patient with everyone, and went above and beyond to make our wedding day special. She snuck us out of our reception to make sure we got perfect shots on Michigan Avenue and constantly helped me with fixing my hair and dress, even when she wasn’t looking for a shot. She is truly skilled and creative, and we couldn’t have asked for a better photographer.

  It was an awesome experience!!!

  Having Darsh at my wedding was a great experience. She was professional, responsive and very easy to talk. She made the environment free of stress and took great photos. I would definitely recommend Darsh photography to others.

  Great Experience!

  Darshana and her team were hands down one of the best vendors to work with! We started off with our e-session with her and Manisha. We were nervous about it, but Dars & Manisha guided us and we felt at ease afterwards knowing moments from our wedding weekend would be captured perfectly.
  
  From the beginning, Dars was very responsive and straight forward which we appreciated. She is personable, talented, and has an eye for details. She also is respectful of any ideas you want to incorporate as well. It’s been about a week from our wedding and we’re already seeing quality being delivered with some photos she has shared us - we can’t wait to see the rest!
  
  Overall, she is very responsive via text/email, prompt, and flexible which was helpful with all the chaos that comes with wedding planning. We would highly recommend her!

  Excellent and outstanding experience!

  5 stars is an understatement for DARS Photography and Ms. Darshana's services!!! Ms. Darshana, owner and lead photographer of DARS Photography, and her lead photographer Ms. Manisha covered my wife's baby shower event, which we hosted three weeks ago at The Seville in Streamwood, IL. Our baby shower event required a lot of planning since we had a very big celebration (i.e. close to 400 people), and even had a live musical band & a popular singer perform as part of the entertainment program. As part of the planning, my wife and I did A LOT of research on all vendors we had hired for our event, including photography services. After doing our due diligence, we hired DARS Photography for photography services, and I can say with absolute confidence that it was the best decision we made! Ms. Darshana was everything you would want in a photographer. From our initial conversation to event day and even after, her service has been outstanding! She is prompt in picking up calls & sending texts and emails. It is extremely obvious that she really cares about her clients. You never feel rushed talking to her. She takes the time to understand and listen to your event day requirements. Professional, knowledgeable, reliable, and courteous are just a few words that describe her. She is passionate about photography and her attention to small details is absolutely incredible! For example, there were a number of times, where before taking pictures, Ms. Darshana made sure that everyone was posing properly, my mom and my wife's saris were the way they should be, there were no obstructions, and everyone's eyes are on the camera. I remember one time we were taking table pictures, and I looked away for a split second, and she signaled right away to look at the camera. It's amazing when you encounter a photographer, who, amidst a crowd of 400 people, can cover an event so professionally and with such confidence. We received our final pictures a few days ago and all of her and Ms. Manisha's hard work is very evident in the pictures! When you can re-live your entire event through pictures, you know your photographers have done their job with excellence! There were so many pictures that were captured so naturally that my family and I were wondering how and when these pictures were even taken. Normally, I don't take the time to write reviews, but I told Ms. Darshana after the event, even without her asking me once, to tell me where I can post a review because her work truly deserves it. I highly recommend DARS Photography and Ms. Darshana for photography services. I apologize for the lengthy review, but I just wanted to take the time to express my sincerest appreciation for her work and also to let potential future clients know that if you're looking for a photographer to cover your event, look nowhere else! I'll be letting my family and friends know to hire Ms. Darshana and leave the rest to her, they will not be disappointed! Thank you again DARS Photography, Ms. Darshana, and Ms. Manisha for making our event very special! It was a pleasure working with you!

  Oh my god!!! I can not thank you enough for such kind words. Mr. Sunny Thakkar, you are so organized! I have been praising about how organized your entire event was, which makes our job so easy to make sure we cover everything. I'm in tears after reading such a heartflet review! We are so delighted to be part of your celebration. We wish you a world of happiness and lots of blessings to the little one!!! Once again, thank you very very much.

  An Amazing Experience!

  No amount of stars justify how amazing her work is! Darshana is an all in one package! She is a very positive and sweet person who loves what she does. Her work and photographs speak for itself. Darshana was one of the first photographers we met with as we were looking for someone for our wedding weekend and we knew right away we wanted her as our wedding photographer. She is honest and knows what will and will not work and is very flexible with what we were looking for. We had no idea what kind of poses we were looking for but Darshana was very creative. Darshana and Manisha are an amazing team and we could not have been happier to have chosen DARS photography to capture our wedding weekend. They started off as our wedding photographers but now have become like family!
