If you love cats, traveling the world, the TV show LOST, and chocolate, then we might be twin flames. But even if none of those things apply to you, don't worry, we'll probably still get along just fine. I'm a wedding photographer, originally from Boston, but also living just north of Miami now. When I'm not in those two locations, I'm living my Carmen Sandiego dream by exploring the rest of the globe one city at a time. If you ever need advice on how to pack just a carry-on for a two-week trip abroad in a cold-climate country, I can help with that. Death before checked baggage, amirite? Let's be friends.

“Danielle is the consummate professional. Skilled, capable, and talented. She is a kind person with excellent people skills and has a way of making everyone feel at ease that she interacts with. She is extremely dependable as well as invested in the work she does and produces. She cares deeply about what she does and how she does it, which is not always an easy quality to find in someone. She's a rare gem.”

“Audrey is the best. She went above and beyond for my wedding which seemed so natural that she must do it for all. We had 3 phone calls since we lived far away. Ahead of the wedding she put together detailed timelines for myself and all those involved. We made edits together and we explored different package options. I had a large wedding where my Husband and I were getting ready at different locations, a Catholic Church Ceremony and a different location for reception. Audrey managed with ease. She has the calmest demeanor and the best art came from the day. I received “Sneak Peaks” of almost 80 photos within 2 days which was a shock to me. Upon opening them, the photographs were so beautiful we couldn’t even believe these were from our day. I HIGHLY recommend Audrey for your wedding. Big or Small, Formal or Informal. She is the girl. BTW her second shooter, Lauren quite literally saved our wedding ceremony when I forgot the rings. Lauren tracked down the limo driver and delivered the rings discreetly to the alter!”

And I understand how to use my training as a dancer to make you look stunning in front of the camera. I know the mechanics of the body and how to pose you to look your best. And on your wedding day, that is exactly how you should feel.

“Jillian at Youngbird Photo (j.guthrie_photo on Instagram) is such a true joy and delight to work with. Not only did she come to photograph our small May ceremony, but she photographed a first look photo session with us after we canceled the reception!! My dress was in covid lockup in May, so I wasn't able to wear it at the original ceremony. Jillian made sure that we had pictures of the dress, and captured a first look moment for us, and that will forever mean the world to me. She even came over to photograph the centerpieces that we had worked so hard on!! She makes people feel so comfortable and has such an amazing eye for what will make a beautiful shot. She is immensely talented and an absolutely delightful person. And bonus, she works with any budget. She truly believes that every couple deserves beautiful photos, and will work with you, whatever your situation is. Case in point, she's done our engagement photos, our small ceremony photos, and now our first look photos, and in every instance, she went above and beyond for us. I will recommend her forever, and still cannot completely put into words how much she and her photos mean to us!”

I create imagery that doesn't just bring you back to a moment, but to an exact feeling. I'm here to document your story exactly as you live it.

“We found Jessica through our venue’s Instagram and never looked back. She’s got an editorial eye and was perfect for our shared vision of our wedding photos. So much so that we ended up broadening our contract to include engagement photos and a separate ceremony from the big day. Jessica not only took beautiful photos on all three occasions, but really worked with us to ensure we were comfortable and getting the shots we really wanted. If you’re looking for a local photog, we couldn’t recommend her enough. And, if you’re able to fly her out for out-of-town projects, she’s just as flexible! Thank you Jessica!”

She did such a great job of scouting locations to take photos for our downtown San Diego wedding and we love that we have pictures in different spots around our venue. She also spent time talking through different dynamics with families for wedding pictures so we could get all the combos we needed without awkwardness of certain family members not getting along.

My earliest memories of photography are from when I attended weddings at 5 or 6 years old. I would photograph everyone at these weddings with a small, plastic, film camera and loved every moment. That joy of photography and capturing beauty and love has stayed with me ever since. I have a better camera now, but I still can't wait to capture your love.

“Tom did a fantastic job with our engagement shoot. We couldn’t have asked for better. He made us feel super comfortable and was able to capture amazing shots without interrupting our special moment.

I am a storyteller, inspired by the timelessness of cinema and the beauty of honest, unguarded emotion. From the rolling hills of Hudson Valley, New York, to the sun-kissed shores of Maui, I bring a deep appreciation for the interplay of light and shadow. This dance of luminosity and depth breathes life into each image I create. Your wedding day is a chapter in a story that began long before we met —and will carry on long after. If you find beauty in romance with a touch of mystery, if you want your wedding photos to feel like visual poetry, let’s create some magic together.
