1. Connect
When you fill out my contact form, I will send you a detailed investment guide and a link to book a consultation call with me. This call is very important because we will be determining if we are a good fit for one another- we will be spending lots of time together on your wedding day! I will also be looking out for what services get you excited so I can help you decide on which collection works best for you.
After the wedding, congratulations will be in order of course! I will deliver previews within 24 hours for you to share with friends & family, and I will send you more information about albums & prints to bring those images to life. The typical turn-around time for galleries is 4-6 weeks, and they come ready with a slideshow so get the Kleenex out!

2. Making it Official
With all your questions answered during our consultation call, you will be better equipped to choose the best collection for you. I'll get the ball rolling on paperwork, and before you know it, we'll be planning your engagement session. Bookings are officially official with a signed contract and a paid retainer.

3. Planning & Logistics
I will maintain an organized work flow throughout the process to keep us on track for all things photography. This includes sending out wedding guides, resources, engagement planning tips, and check-ins to answer any and all questions you may have on this journey. Our final planning step is a timeline review call where we do a mental walkthrough of the day and applaud the planning efforts of your whole team!

4. Wedding Day!
Wedding day will be here before you know it! My hope & dream for you is that you are having fun, feeling good, and dancing to your fave music with your spouse (ah!) on the dance floor and without a worry in the world. I'm there to be a helping hand, as well as to creatively capture all the joy & little in-between moments as the day unfolds.

5. Gallery & Albums
After the wedding, huge congratulations are in order! I will deliver previews within 24 hours for you to share with friends & family right away. The typical turn-around time for full galleries is 4-6 weeks, and I will include a slideshow so you can sit down and view the highlights together. Finally, you & I will work together to create a wedding album with your favorite images so you can make sure that your beautiful day is never forgotten.

"Dani was an excellent photographer for our wedding. She was professional, communicative, organized, and so nice! We couldn’t be more happy with the way our photos turned out as she really captured our wedding day exactly how we want to remember it. Would highly recommend."

The bottom Line: No Awkward Poses— Only Genuine Moments and a Lot of Fun!
Formal engagement sessions are included in all my wedding collections, but if you're after a standalone session, this is the perfect fit! Whether you're celebrating sweet 'just because' moments or planning that epic proposal (and trust me, you’ll want to call me again for those wedding photos 😉), I've got you covered.
starting at $600
Portraits and Proposals
Traditional in the sense of having >50 guests and a timeline packed with formal family portraits, elegant "getting ready" photos, and an epic reception to celebrate. Otherwise, break the rules as you please. Service highlights are below, with three unique collections to choose from at time of booking.
starting at $3500
Traditional weddings
Typically under 50 guests and without a reception, micro-weddings are some of my favorite intimate events to capture. Examples include civil ceremonies, and small backyard gatherings. Service highlights are below, with three unique collections to choose from at time of booking.

Answers to your most burning questions
100%! I work with real people, not models, but 10/10 couples feel like models once they get their images back. My style is very movement-centered and playful. I will always start out with more traditional poses as well, so we get a little bit of everything.
P.S. Engagement sessions tend to be the most playful and true-to-you. I have tons of ideas for making the experience unique to you including champagne, bring your pets, and more.
answer:
You don't have to, you get to. :-)
Even if you already did one or aren't interested in a portrait session, I highly recommend doing one with me anyway so you can get a feel for my photography flow and so we can meet in person before the big day! I'd love to be a familiar friendly face by the time your wedding comes around.
answer:
Ooh I'm so excited to hear about where your wedding takes you! I have a flat fee of $1,200 for domestic travel. This will cover everything I need to be present, on time, and ready to roll. It also eliminates all the back and forth invoicing on your end. We can discuss more logistics on our consultation call! I do not do international weddings at this time.
answer:
Absolutely!
As part of your wedding photography experience, I’ll stay in touch with you throughout the planning process. This includes requesting a draft of your wedding timeline, which we’ll review together over the phone. We’ll fill in the details for all things photography, like timing for family portraits and couple’s photos, based on your wedding day logistics. It’s also a great chance for you to ask any questions and touch base before the big day!
answer:
Albums are seriously one of the best ways to keep your wedding day memories alive. Prior to receiving your gallery, you will get a link to my album guide where you will be able to customize your album. When you have your photos, you will select your favorite images, and I'll take it from there. Once I make an initial design, you will have the opportunity to make edits virtually before the final product is shipped straight to your door.
answer:
The million-dollar question! Thankfully, part of your wedding planning experience with me includes a beautifully detailed wedding guide that covers everything you need to know about engagement sessions. It features outfit suggestions, essential do's and don'ts, and plenty of ideas to make your session uniquely yours. Plus, we'll chat about the best local locations to bring your vision to life!
answer:
This number varies widely from wedding to wedding and it depends on multiple variables including if you choose to have a second photographer, the length of coverage, and honestly- the type of wedding you are having! If there is more dancing, more special traditions in your ceremony, and a lively cocktail hour, you can expect more images than a smaller, more intimate affair with minimalist details. Both are gorgeous in their own right, and between you and me, I have never delivered less than 400 photos in a wedding gallery.
answer:
Absolutely! In order to officially book a service, a non-refundable retainer is required. Beyond that, the most popular payment plan is 2 payments spaced out between booking and wedding day, or 2 payments total for stand-alone portrait sessions. We can discuss those details further on our consultation call too!
