PHOTOGRAPHY

Do you ever feel awkward in front of the camera? "Where should I put my hands? Am I standing weird? How does my back look in this dress?" Here's a little secret that nobody tells you...everybody feels awkward in front of the camera. Yes, I said it. And I am going to do everything I can to get to know you and make you feel comfortable.

The experience is not a stand in front of the camera while I take pictures and you are wondering the entire time if you're doing the right thing kind of deal. I will give you a lot of direction and natural movements that will help you look like you!

It is really important to me to take photos that look like YOU! If you are a super smiley couple then I am going to get lots of smiley pictures of you. If you're more reserved and like more serious faces and style then that's what I am going to capture. I don't want you to look like someone you're not or to look back at your photos and wonder why you did that. I want you to look back at your photos and fall in love all over again.

YEAH. I WANT THAT!

Photographer, wife, and mama of 3

I am a wedding and family photographer raised in NH and living in Leesburg, VA. I love capturing warm, real, and authentic moments that tell part of your story.

I am also a wife, mom of 3, and a rescued mutt owner. I love music (especially singing), cooking, baking, drinking lemonade, eating things with chocolate, and being a stay at home mom while taking photos of my amazing couples and families.

Hi, I'm Danielle

MORE ABOUT ME

"Where do I even begin to express how much it was pleasure to work with Danielle. Danielle’s fun, relaxing, relatable, and down-to-earth personality creates such an amazing environment. Every session her creativity took even the simplest of situations and produced out of this world results; everything from photos to communication felt so natural. Capturing breathtaking moments for me and my wife Allyson, from our engagement session to our wedding/ceremony, that we will remember forever. We cannot thank and recommend Danielle enough. Simply put, Danielle is the absolute best and we will definitely be back for any future photography sessions."

"I felt like Danielle was ‘in our corner’."

I spent an entire weekend researching photographers and ended up on Danielle for the following reasons— 1) she immediately set up a zoom when we submitted an inquiry. It showed us that getting to know us was important 2) she worked with us on creating a package that made sense for our wedding. It wasn’t the strict packages we saw on other sites 3) she made us feel comfortable and confident 4) her pictures are incredible— the perfect mix of lifestyle and traditional.

I would recommend Danielle to anyone. She is kind, fun to work with, professional, and provides incredible work. We will be reaching out to her for the next big moment we want to capture.
