intimate, joyful &
authentic

I love being a part of your most special day—witnessing it all unfold and capturing every beautiful, emotional, blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moment.

It’s those quiet, in-between moments that stay with me: when your mom zips you into your dress and helps you fasten the same pearl necklace she wore on her wedding day. The first kiss, the vows, the teary toast from your proud dad. Give me all of it—it feeds my soul and reminds me exactly why I do what I do. 💛

When you book with me, I want your wedding experience to feel fun, stress-free, and full of support. I’ll be with you every step of the way—answering your questions, sharing advice, and guiding you through the planning process like a built-in bestie with a camera. 🎉

With years of experience under my belt, I can help with everything from creating your timeline to recommending trusted vendors. Wedding planning can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone—I’ve got you!

sessions

Let’s make your engagement session fun (like, actually fun). 🎉📸

I always encourage my couples to come into their engagement session with one goal in mind: have a great time together! Think of it as a laid-back hour where we laugh, move, chat, and get to know each other better before the big day.

Don’t worry—I'll guide you the whole time with gentle direction and fun prompts (nothing stiff or awkward, I promise!). Most of what we do won’t even feel like posing—it’s more like playing, connecting, and letting your real selves shine through.

Engagement sessions are the perfect, stress-free "rehearsal" for your wedding portraits. By the time the big day rolls around, you’ll already feel like pros in front of the camera—relaxed, confident, and ready for all the photo magic.

Bonus? You’ll walk away with a gorgeous set of photos that capture this exciting chapter of your life—one you’ll always want to remember. 💛

WEDDING

Frequently Asked Questions

  • All wedding dates are considered available and FCFS until I have a signed contract and deposit. I require a $1000 non-refundable retainer to secure your date. This blocks off your date on my calendar for you and only you! Woo!

  • Each camera I shoot with is writing 2 copies of your images to 2 separate memory cards. This ensures that if one of the cards happens to be corrupt, there will be a backup copy! Once I get your images home, they are immediately copied onto my computer which then creates a 3rd copy and my computer is continuously backing up all of its data to a cloud service called back-blaze. Your images are so important to me to keep safe!

  • My best advice here is to always have a backup plan, especially if you are getting married in an outdoor venue. There are clear tents that can be used for reception spaces, too! Always ask your venue what their backup plan. Of coarse we want to do everything possible to go with plan A, but it will ease your mind to know there is a plan in the case of rain.

    Lastly- let your story unfold as it does. We cannot control the weather, unfortunately. Don't be afraid to get a little wet for a few portraits. Those under-the-umbrella shots can be so romantic

  • Great question! Necessary, no. Recommended, YES! It is a great way for us to get to know one another and also to ease the stress of being in front of the camera. All of my couples have told me how much better they felt after our session together going into a wedding day full of photos. PLUS you get a bonus gallery of beautiful images to display at your wedding at a discounted rate.

  • This is my worst nightmare! It has not happened, but if for some reason it did I have an extensive group of amazing photographers that I can reach out to in that case. My second photographer scheduled for your date will be the one to take the lead and I will find a second shooter to take his/her place. You will be in great hands!!

  • You will receive an online gallery of all of your images! You are free to download and print from the gallery site or at any print store of your choice. Please don’t screen shot your images! It really compromises the quality.

  • I get this question all the time. Your gallery is available for as long as I continue to pay for my service. That being said, it is still up to you to be sure you download and save your images on multiple platforms. I recommend putting them on a USB drive as well as an online storage such as Google Drive or Amazon photos.

  • After the initial deposit of $1000, the remainder of the package is split into 3 equal parts and spaced out evenly leading up to the big day. Your final payment is due 30 days prior to your wedding date.

  • Cash, Check, PayPal, Zelle or Credit Card!

  • Please, please, please download and save your images in multiple places! I always recommend saving on a USB, computer, phone, etc. AS WELL AS an online storage site. Amazon photos, google photos, dropbox and smug mug are all great choices.

  • 11 years! My first wedding was in 2013! While I continued to learn, I still worked as a graphic designer at a local sign shop. It wasn't until 2016 that I jumped in full time. I am so glad I did, this career choice has been an absolute pleasure!

  • I wish I had an exact count, but I would estimate 250+ beautiful days! I average 25-30 weddings per year now that I am well established.

  • I will carefully sort through and edit the best images from our time together! You will receive the edited, high resolution jpeg images in your final gallery.

  • Approximately 75 photos per hour of coverage will be delivered in your final wedding gallery. That being said, I do not limit it to that number, if more images are required to tell your story then I include them!

  • Your full wedding gallery take up to 10 weeks, but usually around 4-6 weeks is my average turn around. You will receive an extensive teaser gallery within the first week following your wedding, though! Plenty to help hold you over until the full reveal!

    Danielle's photos are absolutely beautiful and really convey the emotion of the day. She is also very experienced and was able to give advice on timeline planning. On the day of the event, she was great at posing everyone and being around without being too in your face. She was friendly, but unobtrusive. Her candids were amazing too. I barely remember seeing her or the second photographer at some point during the ceremony and reception. I really appreciated that she was able to take pictures while still giving some space for the sacred and personal moments. She was also super about pulling us aside for posed shots we specifically wanted. I cherish our wedding photos as one of the best investments of the whole wedding. Through Danielle's eyes I got to see little moments I missed on the day of. She is very observant and good at capturing those fast-moving moments of emotion within relationships. She got beautiful photos of our reception and really captured the spirit of the party. I love my photos so much because they really feel like how my wedding day felt. She captured the magic and the love.

    The best decision!

    Danielle was amazing!! She did our engagement shoot and our wedding and we cannot say enough good things about her. She’s always on top of everything and it was so reassuring having her there on wedding day even aside from being our photographer.

    We were blown away with how amazing all of our pictures came out! Danielle does such a good job of giving prompts and pointers so that you get so many great candid looking pictures. We also had a few different inspo shots that we had from Pinterest and she took them and managed to make them 100x better than I even imagined. We’ll definitely be using her again for any future events/family stuff etc.

    Beautiful Wedding Photos

    I used Danielle for photography for my wedding in May at the Hutchinson Shores Resort & Spa, and it was one of the best decisions I've ever made. My husband and I are NOT photogenic whatsoever and are extremely camera-shy. However, Danielle and her team made us feel so comfortable that it was a pleasure and a joy taking pictures with them. On top of her lovely personality, Danielle's style and quality of pictures are absolutely stunning. I received hundreds of photos from our wedding day that I just can't stop obsessing over. There are many purchases you make when planning a wedding, but one decision that truly lasts a lifetime are your photos. I couldn't be happier to have all of these memories captured so beautifully that I may cherish them forever !

    Danielle is absolutely amazing to work with. We did a destination extended family shoot with her and she did it with ease. She even managed to get great ones of my not always cooperative 4 and 6 year old. Would work with her over and over again and suggest you do the same

    Danielle is sooo good at what she does 👏🏼 We used her for our engagement pictures and for our wedding day and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Her communication & response time is way better than other vendors, plus her personality is fun! She is so easy going and makes “posing” comfortable. Cannot wait to see the rest of our pictures & continue raving about Danielle Love Photography to anyone who asks!

    FAMILY PORTRAITS

    Danielle has been taking photos of my family since my oldest son was 6 months old. He turns 6 this October! She has watched our family grow and experienced our milestones with us. My husband hates having his photos taken but she always puts him at ease and makes him feel comfortable in front of the camera. We have two small children that are almost impossible to photograph, but every year, she blesses us with beautiful portraits that fill our home. Danielle’s work is just stunning, and she is our forever family photographer. We will always recommend Danielle...she’s simply the best ❤️

    FAMILY PORTRAITS

    Danielle was an absolute pleasure to work with! We came in to town to visit family and decided to find a photographer with her editing style. I fell in love with her website and set up a half session. She delivered our gallery so quickly and I was blown away!!! The images of my family I will treasure for years to come. If you want a photographer that makes you feel comfortable, great direction for poses and lets you have fun the entire time, pick Danielle!! :)
