Hi! I'm Danielle.
I'm a Midwest elopement and intimate wedding photographer. Currently based in a small suburb just outside Detroit, Michigan, but available for travel anywhere!
I have had a love for creating for as long as I can remember. When I was little, I drew everything as I saw it and I think that's why photography feels so perfect. It's an absolute dream to be an artist by trade and capturing special moments is a job I take to heart.
One of my favorite things in life is a good love story and I am on a mission to prove that real people can have the kind of love you see on television or in the movies. You know, the love like Noah and Allie have in The Notebook, or my newest favorite tv couple - Claire and Jamie Fraser!
I want to tell the story of your wedding day in a completely raw and authentic way by capturing all the details and emotions in the moment. My style is real and unposed, but I will give you a small bit of guidance so you never have that "what do I do with my hands" feeling.
Elopements and intimate weddings are amazing because you can truly focus on your love and commitment to each other in a way that is uniquely you - and what a perfect love story they make!

Some of my favorite places
Being a good steward to our land is so important to me because of my love for the outdoors. I want all the couples that I photograph outdoors to be able to go back to their special spot, time and time again, and have a wonderful experience each time.
