Photography FOR THE people who want it all
Based in Lake Tahoe, Traveling to You
Artistic Composition.
Intentional Posing.
Real Moments.
Where real Life meets "Make it look good"
Okay, let’s be real. You want photos that capture alllll the things: laughing with your besties, stealing a quiet second with your person, the details you spent a year planning -- buttt the second a camera shows up, you freeze and think "wtf do I do with my hands!?". Trust me, I feel you!! The good news? Figuring out which moments need guidance and making you feel comfortable enough to let the other moments just happen, that’s my freakin jam.
The truth is some of your photos will need direction, i.e remembering the mid-aisle kiss, the smiling pic of the whole fam, or making Pinerest-worthy detail photo. Other photos come together perfectly on their own; the glances, the dance moves, that exact second someone says something that cracks everyone up. My job is to notice all of it and adjust how hands-on I am based on what’s happening in YOUR moment.
By balancing your real-life moments with my guidance & artistic eye, your gallery ends up full of everything you wanted AND also all the little moments you didn’t even know you’d LOVE!

If you're a Harry Styles fan, obsessed with really old architecture, or deep in your bookworm era—we’re already on the same page.
Here’s the thing: I don’t just show up with a camera, snap a few pics, and call it a day. I photograph with intention, leaning into those real, raw moments that tell the story of who you are. Whether it’s that playful look you share during an inside joke, the quiet touch of your hand as you walk down the aisle, or those happy tears you try to hide—I’m here for it all. My style blends documentary honesty with just the right amount of guidance, creating photos that feel as good as they look.
If you want someone who hypes you up, keeps things fun and relaxed, and makes sure you feel like a guest at your own wedding (not the host)—we’re going to get along just fine.

What you see here? This is just the start. My style is kind of like a perfect mix — all the real, raw, can’t-believe-this-is-happening moments, plus just enough direction so you look amazing without feeling like you’re following a script. Whether we’re in Tahoe, chilling at home for a cozy session, or at yout micro-wedding on the cliffs of Santorini, I tailor everything to you. Every day, every person, every vibe is different — so every gallery reflects YOUR own story.

Daira & Thomas
"Without hesitation, we would hire Dani again and again. She is excellent in every sense and her dedication to her craft is evident in every shot she captures. Our wedding memories have been beautifully captured through her lens and for that we are incredibly grateful."
Molly & Scott
"We are absolutely blown away by the quality of the photos. She really goes above and beyond, from offering to grab us coffee in the morning to making sure everyone looks their absolute best before snapping each pic...She has a very relaxed demeanor and, as someone who has always felt awkward in front of the camera, she finds a way to make you feel like a model."
Kelsey & Ali
If we could give more than 5 stars for Dani we would. She was truly such an amazing person to have in our corner for our wedding day. Not only was she extremely personable and easy to be around, she was efficient...Our photos came out so amazing and really captured the essence of our day. If we had to do it all over again, we would pick her every time.
