Hi, I'm Danielle & I've been known to hype people up! I'm a creative entrepreneur who's been chasing her dreams since starting my biz at 21. Photography, providing education for photographers, and now podcasting, are kind of my thing! Cheesy teen movies make me happy, and I watch way too much New Girl. I have a slight addiction to white cheddar popcorn, and wine is my true love language. I want to help + hype you up for whatever stage of life you're in, by showing you that you are not alone in your thoughts, feelings or experiences and that you already have everything you could ever need to make your dreams a reality.

“I worked with Danielle as a planner from Lucky Day Events Co. on a recent wedding. Danielle had the whole incredible vendor team cracking up the entire night! She was super professional, but fun, making the guests laugh which of course makes for the best candid/natural photos. She stayed beautifully on time and delivered photos to us and the clients in record time. Literally gave us sneaks to post to social media THAT NIGHT. I can't wait to work with her again on a wedding!”

“Casie Weathers Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding day. From the very first conversation, Casie demonstrated an open, helpful, and kind communication style that put us at ease. She took the time to get to know us and understand exactly what we were looking for in terms of capturing our special day.

We had provided Casie with a detailed shot list beforehand, and she made sure to get every single photo we requested, even some we hadn't thought of. The only thing I wish we had done was make sure to get like a full length shot of my dress front and back and a great photo with just my siblings - something to keep in mind for future couples working with anyone. Overall, we are thrilled with the quality of Casie's work and highly recommend her to any couple planning their wedding. She captures people in a beautiful way that is always so unique to the couple.

She will be there to help make your vision come to life. You can count on her to have your back and lend a hand in time of need.

“Leah Marie Photography + Stationery is truly the BEST! Hire Leah if you are seeking a wedding photographer to capture those special moments as this is her beautiful gifting. She was suggested and we fell in love with her personality over the phone. She was radiant, joyful and exuberant. She traveled to North Georgia to photo and without us knowing, she even photographed our rehearsal. One of the qualities that makes Leah stand out above other photographers I've worked with, (I'm an actress and on set often) is her specialized eye on composition, lighting and movement in a photo and the way she makes everyone feel at ease. The photos she captured were published a week later in the magazine BEAUTIFUL. Our wedding was featured in a 7 page spread story about our celebration. The other huge selling factor about Leah is the softness she provides in the finished photo. It is a surreal, warm, quality filled with a love light that is consistent in all of the photos she prepped and sent to us. She delivers such emotional and epic photos. Our videographer was filming and you see Leah photographing us, not missing a moment and she complimented /coordinated with our wedding palette. It was incredible. My sister consistently said how she wished she had a fraction of the talent in her wedding photographer. Leah is a rare gift. You not only get a photographer but a friend and a joyful personality celebrating your special day with you. Didn't miss a moment, talented, professional, easy to work with and turned around photos within moments.”

Having a background in photojournalism, I photograph with a documentary approach which allows an organic and authentic feel to shine through my images.

Gio is professional and organized, a dream for any bride to work with. She has a gift for making you comfortable in front of the camera and provides expert guidance that makes shooting with her feel effortless. Her passion for her craft is palpable, and you know it’s good when she turns the camera around and says “YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS!” Every album I’ve received is a breathtakingly beautiful, cinematic keepsake of the most special moments. Her work is literal ART. I’ll never forget the emotional experience of receiving our wedding album - we literally laughed and cried for hours. Every detail and moment is so intentionally and artfully captured. It’s been two years and I still swoon over our wedding photos. I’ve had several (also obsessed) friends inquire about our wedding photography and even book their weddings with Gio. She is easily one of the best investments I made for my wedding day and I can’t say enough positive things. As a repeat client, I so look forward to working with her again in the future.

This storyteller believes that your wedding day shouldn't feel like a photo shoot, but should be full of genuine moments that are unique to your love story. As a fly on the wall with a photojournalist style, I am less concerned about "blog worthy" shots and more about the candids that show who you are and who you love. I find importance in preserving fleeting moments and the importance of printing photos, not just letting them live in an online gallery.

“From our first call with Amy, we were impressed by her warmth, timely responses, and detail-oriented communication style. On the day of our wedding, Amy and her team seamlessly blended into the background, capturing all the candid, in-between moments that we will cherish forever. Amy made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera, and we hardly even noticed her taking photos - yet the final results were nothing short of extraordinary. The 50 (!!) preview photos she provided just days after our wedding were a wonderful surprise, and we are thrilled with the quality and value of their work (she even edited out a scrape I had from running). We cannot recommend Amy highly enough to any couple looking for a talented and professional photograger to help make their special day truly unforgettable.”

We were taken care of through the entire experience. We we’re nervous about exploring somewhere new, but Des knows her stuff and was able to navigate us through the location scouting process seamlessly. The day of felt nothing like a photo session and more like hanging out with a really cool friend that gave you as much space as you needed to be vulnerable with your partner, while also keeping the hype up. She had such an incredible pulse on our needs. We were nervous about looking awkward or feeling camera-shy, but she knew exactly what to say to help up feel comfortable. There was no awkward posing or forced emotion, just really subtle prompting that helped you ease into each moment. The entire day was amazing and none of it would have happened without her skill and guidance. We felt like we could trust her to keep us present in the most important moments. We cried when we got our images, they were absolutely breathtaking and 1000% us. We loved being able to share this day through these images with all of our friends and family that weren’t there. They were able to laugh and cry with us. Getting your gallery from Des is like getting to relive your favorite day all over again. She is an absolute gem that impacted our lives in such a positive way. We had no idea how gorgeous Montana was until Des blew our minds with all of the incredible knowledge that she has. If you’re curious about how amazing eloping can be, she’s the girl to talk to. We would do it all over again in a heartbeat.”
