Storytelling photography through digital and film.

 

I want to capture
your unique story.

 

I’m Danielle — an intimate wedding and lifestyle photographer located in Northern California with a heart for storytelling.


I capture raw, real moments — imagery you can feel. The quiet in-between glances. The deep breaths before you walk down the aisle. The way your hands naturally find each other. My work is rooted in emotion, authenticity, and timeless storytelling.


Your photographs should feel undeniably like you — not forced, not performative.

Why me?


I photograph with a documentary heart and a subtle editorial eye.


I absolutely guide when needed — especially during portraits — but the best work is created when you’re just as excited to create a little magic together in the short time we have. Your wedding day should never feel like one long photoshoot. It should feel like your wedding.


I’ll gently direct you with natural movement, then step back so you can be fully present. The magic always lives in the in-between — when you forget the camera is there and simply lean into each other.


Blending digital and film, every moment is captured with intention — preserving your story exactly as it felt. Film brings softness and nostalgia. Digital allows space for honest storytelling as it unfolds. Together, they create imagery that is both refined and deeply emotional.


From the way I shoot to the way I edit, my process is thoughtful and intentional. Nothing overdone. Just timeless imagery designed to last.

Danielle was absolutely amazing to work with! From the very beginning, we chose her because she made us feel like we were more than just another client. She genuinely cared about us as a couple and wanted to get to know us. You can tell she’s incredibly passionate about what she does, and it comes through in every part of the process.

On our wedding day, she was calm and collected, which is exactly what we wanted and needed.

I would highly, highly recommend working with her!

When I'm not shooting you can find me...


Hiking throughout Northern California, reading, spending time at home with sweet family, watching my boys kill it at ice hockey or completing home projects with my handy hubby are some of my favorite things.

I am a Certified Medical Assistant. I left my position as a Practice Manager at a local medspa in June 2022 to be home with my son and focus on my photography business. It’s been one of the best decisions I've ever made.
