Photos from your wedding day are super important. In years to come, your children and grandchildren will be popping by to visit, parking their hoverboards outside, and begging to see your wedding album. See, that gorgeous book of magical memories, it’s not just for you. It’s for those who come after you.
The dancing, the food, the family, the friends (did I mention the dancing?), I just LOVE weddings, which is handy ‘cos that’s a pretty crucial part of the job.
Look, it sounds a little corny, but stay with me: I love clients who feel like they could turn into friends. I knooooow. Forgive the schmaltz. But the coolest thing that I regularly hear from clients is that having me shoot their wedding feels like having a pal do it. That’s pretty special, isn’t it?
Once you’ve fallen in love with my work (hey, you’re only human) we need to sit down and have a chat somewhere convenient to you - a brewski perhaps? Or on the ever popular, zoom.
We’ll talk aaaaalll about your wedding. We look at some pretty pictures, we talk about your plans, we get your partner on board...all that jazz.
Once we’ve had our sit-down, I send an online contract and ask for a non-refundable deposit of $2000 to hold the day. This can be paid via check or venmo.
Then we talk engagement shoots. Dates, what kinda vibe you’d like to go for, location.
Now for the real talk: WEDDING TIMELINE. I can design a custom one for you, or you can tell me what’s happening when. After shooting more than 400 weddings, I’ve kinda got this down.
We schedule a phone call a month prior to your wedding date to confirm the timeline and make sure we’re on the same page about everything.
After the wedding, I send your photos within 4 weeks of your wedding date (via an online gallery).

You take a ton of pictures on your wedding day so you might as well have a blast while you do it. Dani was a blast to be with. My husband and I both were slightly nervous to have our pictures taken and literally ended the night begging her to be friends with us forever. Even our bridal party commented on how much fun she was. Not only will she make you belly laugh, but will capture you and your significant other perfectly. We both agree that she will be our “forever photographer” - for future life events, family portraits, etc. Our photos are so genuinely he and I and I love them so much.

Stop looking and book Dani now!! She is an amazing photographer (obviously) but she’s so much more. You spend your whole wedding day with your photographer so why not choose someone who can make you laugh and capture every candid moment?! Dani made sure to get the traditional wedding photos but also captured so much emotion and joy on our big day. I have endless favorites from our album and love that our personality and the personalities of our guests come through in each photo. Dani knows what she’s doing and will make your day FUN! We have memories to last a lifetime but also pictures that express every feeling from our wedding. We cannot thank Dani enough for being our photographer.

Smiling for no reason into a stranger’s lens is just not everyday behavior and it can take a bit of getting used to, right?
So this is why I like to throw in an engagement shoot with my wedding packages. Lemme tell you: the difference between a couple who have a pre-wedding shoot, and the ones that don’t, well...it’s like the difference between night and day.
Taking the afternoon to go on a little adventure with me will help you get comfy in front of my camera, so that by the time we get to the big day, you’ll be so relaxed you’ll forget I’m even there. We can meet up wherever is good for you and just walk for a bit. You can tell me all about your plans and hopes for the big day, all about your relationship (hey, we’re all friends here) even about why you’re getting married. Tell me anything and everything! And I’ll quietly snap some incredible shots of you looking loved-up and happy.
