There is nobody like Danielle. Her professionalism, efficiency, care, and artistry made her the perfect photographer for our wedding. Working with her on the day of the wedding was a breeze. She kept us on schedule, posed us perfectly, and ensured we were having FUN! Plus, her portfolio matches the product, and we were blown away by the sneak peeks. The photos looked like they were straight out of Vogue. We can't wait to frame her beautiful work! If you have a chance to work with Danielle, do it. Her work will become your favorite pictures hands down.
I feel tremendously lucky to have been Danielle’s muse for our wedding day and cannot begin to express the immense gratitude and appreciation I have for her talent and dedication to her art. My husband and I will forever cherish our wedding photographs that we will proudly pass down to our future children and grandchildren one day as family heirlooms. I only hope to be fortunate enough to have the opportunity to work with her again and cannot recommend her enough to everyone I know. Nonetheless, I will be blatantly honest to say if you are considering hiring Danielle and her superb team, do not expect the cutesy staged wedding photos you see strewn across Pinterest with cheesy, forced smiles and poses set in perfect conformity against excessively warm, almost orange filters – if that is your style, Danielle and her team are not for you. Danielle is in an entire category of her own. The line that differentiates good work and remarkable talent lies within the passion one has for their chosen art, and Danielle could teach a masterclass on the subject alone. Her ability to convey an extraordinary amount of detail and poignant beauty through her photographic style is otherworldly. Displaying a depth of emotion from her subjects through careful thought and keen observation can be seen in the naturalistic spontaneity captured within those moments-in-between, which can only be described as an existentialist reflection towards her work in way that elicits that love-at-first-sight, butterflies-in-your-stomach feeling of falling in love for the first time – simply put, her work will take your breath away! Intense, enigmatic, and passionate, one look at her photography shows an artist with a deep appreciation for the brevity of life and an understanding of the intensity love brings that inspires that ‘Til Death Do Us Part, leap of faith one commits to on their wedding day when they say, “I do”. Suffice to say, it’s as if she has the ability to bend the laws of physics through her lens with the way she manipulates light and shadow, and sheer passion within the composition of her photographs. An expert at showcasing the timeless, immortality of art juxtaposed against the mortality of love, Danielle is, without a doubt, Caravaggio with a camera.
Danielle was one of the first vendors we booked after we set a date for our wedding. After watching her work on Instagram for years, she was the only photographer I could consider to capture our wedding. From the very beginning with our engagement session, she helped my partner and I feel at ease with having our picture taken. Danielle is truly so good at what she does that I was never worried about the outcome of our photos. On wedding day she was calm and warm, bringing the best out of us, our bridal party and our families. From the images we've seen of our wedding, I'm thrilled! She captured exactly the moments we wanted preserved, and her eye for light and movement is flawless. I'm so happy to have booked Danielle for our wedding because it felt like having another friend on your team. Absolutely highly recommend!
I’m not quite sure to begin, as Danielle feels like more than someone we “worked with” during the process of creating our wedding – but a friend. We met with Danielle well before our wedding was postponed due to COVID, and worked collaboratively with her in the months that followed to execute our vision and also gave her the creative freedom to weigh in on what we wanted. Danielle is an absolute artist, and is so kind and easy-going that it will make your big day seem like a breeze. We can truly say that our wedding day went off without a hitch because of Danielle’s creative direction, knowledge, and support. Her assistant, Samer, was also phenomenal and both of them brought such a fun, artistic energy to the shoots we had planned before our ceremony. We felt completely taken care of as her clients, and please, look no further for your wedding photographer. Danielle is simply the best, that’s it. End of story.
Danielle is a literal goddess!! Aside from photographing our engagement and wedding she basically planned my day-of timeline and dedicated so much time the day of ironing out details and directing others on my behalf without so much as a second thought! She is a truly wonderful person — like hanging out with her for the day was a pleasure — and she, as well as her staff, are AMAZING at their jobs! She knows exactly when to step up and step in, as well as when to leave you and your partner be so you do get that special “We did this!!!!” moment. Honest to god, I feel blessed to have met Danielle and I would absolutely spend every penny, and some, on her services again! I know couples who chose not to invest in their photographer and left their day without a single photo they love.. with Danielle we left with an entire digital album of truly breathtaking moments we get to relive every time we look back and that is absolutely priceless.
To say Danielle is AMAZING would be an understatement. I saw firsthand how beautiful Danielle's work is when my sister hired Danielle for her wedding in October 2019. When I got engaged in Feb 2020 Danielle was the first vendor I booked for my October 2021 wedding because I knew I wouldn't be happy with any other photographer. My wedding day (10/24/21) was wet and rainy the entire day, however I was totally unfazed because I trust Danielle's vision entirely and knew she would capture the most amazing shots despite the weather. I also have to mention Danielle came prepared with an organized and detailed backup plan to shoot indoors at the beautiful CAA hotel, and she kept our entire day on time and running smoothly. Aside from the fact that she has the logistics nailed down to a tee and she is so easy to work with, her actual style of photography is unmatched. She made me and my husband feel like models in the least cheesy way possible and her editorial/unique vision just really sets her apart. We also really appreciated getting a sneak peak of photos less than 24 hours after our wedding <3 Thanks Danielle!!!
Danielle was incredible to work with and so easy going and amazing. She was so kind and professional and gave me fantastic photos. If you need the best photographer then look no further. She is artistic and did an amazing job at our wedding!
There are no words to describe how eternally grateful we are to Danielle and her team for capturing our wedding day as perfectly and genuinely as they did. We have worked with Danielle now for our engagement shoot and wedding day and she has gone above and beyond for us at every step of the way. Her care for her clients and dedication to her art is unparalleled. She has become a true friend of ours throughout our time together and we simply could not recommended this amazing woman and her team enough! She is worth everything, 100%, without a doubt!!! We can't wait to work together again for the next big milestones in our lives!
Danielle will bring something to your wedding photos that you didn’t even know you were looking for. Her edits are classic and I know that I will still love these photos for the years to come, and not just for the obvious reasons. Make sure you think far enough in advance to book her!
I could not recommend Danielle more! I knew that I wanted my wedding photos to feel more like a fashion editorial than traditional wedding photos and Danielle absolutely did not disappoint! Her artistic eye and the way that she captured those tiny in between moments, when we didn’t even know she was taking photos, is seriously priceless. She made us feel so comfortable we honestly just felt like we were hanging out with a friend. Every time I scroll through our album I find another photo that I can’t believe I missed the first time. Seriously, if you are looking for a photographer that is going to take photos you will cherish forever and that are heirlooms your grandchildren will definitely think are cool, hire Danielle!
