"i have been absolutely inundated with people COMPLIMENTING our amazing photographer. lots of people asking if YOU'RE a friend of ours because of how well you just slotted into the day, and compliments on your ability to be absolutely everywhere, without actually getting in the way. i truly do feel like we hit the jackpot with our vendors, so for the millionth time, thank you."

"I HAD PICKED DANELLE TO BE MY WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER LONG BEFORE ID MET JOHN. IT WAS A DREAM COME TRUE TO HAVE HER AS PART OF OUR DAY. SHE CAME IN AND FELT LIKE ONE OF OUR NEAREST AND DEAREST. HER TALENT IS NEXT LEVEL (IVE SAID IT BEFORE AND ILL SAY IT AGAIN, SHES THE GOAT) AND I BELIEVE THAT EVERYONE NEEDS TO BE IN FRONT OF HER LENS AT LEAST ONCE IN THEIR LIVES. I TRULY HAVE THE DOPEST WEDDING PHOTOS"

"DANELLE DID OUR WEDDING RECENTLY. HAD TO MOVE THE WHOLE VENUE LAST MINUTE AFTER THE WIND BLEW THE MARQUEES OVER. COULDN'T USE OUR ORIGINAL LOCATION FOR PHOTOS AS THE TRACK WAS TOO WET. SHE JUST ADAPTED, GOT NEW LOCATIONS AND TURNED OUT WELL. DEFINITELY RECOMMEND HER. "

""HIGHLY RECOMMEND! DANELLE IS THE ONLY PHOTOGRAPHER I TRUST TO CAPTURE LIFES MOST IMPORTANT MOMENTS. FROM OUR FAMILY SHOOTS TO OUR ENGAGEMENT, WEDDING, AND EVEN MY WILD ONE OFF STUDIO REQUESTS. SHE ALWAYS DELIVERS PERFECTION. EVERY PHOTO IS A CHERISHED MEMORY, AND WERE ALWAYS HAPPY TO INVEST IN HER INCREDIBLE TALENT. 10/10"

“Never had I ever done anything like a photo shoot before until now. After hearing such wonderful recommendations we didn’t look twice at choosing Danelle for the job and I have zero regrets. She was so welcoming it put both my partner and I‘s nerves at ease. She’s very professional and informative it resulted in such a fun afternoon! I couldn’t fault her if I tried. Will definately be back for more shoots in future. “

"Danelle brings a calmness and a magic you didn't know you needed. As a person she is super easy to get along with, and a presence you want on your special day. She has all the jokes to help calm your nerves and just gelled perfectly with everyone involved!

We reached out super short notice (6 weeks! Over Christmas!) As our original photographer fell through and I would call it fate!

Danelle has talent beyond belief! Our photos are magical, bringing memories straight back that I had already forgotten. She has captured parts of our day I didn't even know happened, captured the raw emotion of parts we want to remember and bought beauty to every single image.
The raw-ness of the photos from our guest is everything we wanted when searching for a photographer who would caputre the candid moments, the natural laughters, smiles and tears that filled our day is the memories I wanted and Danelle has delivered above and beyond.

Danelles communication is excellent, from bringing her on board (super late!) To the day and even afterwards everything was communicated beautifully from expectations, timelines and what to expect, and she has gone well and above any expectations!

I would 100% recommend Danelle as your photographer for any thing and I truly am looking at hiring her again for another package and can't wait to work with her again someday!

You will have no regrets hiring this absolutely stunning soul of a person"
