Hi, I’m Dani

I'm a Seattle based wedding & family photographer drawn to the beauty of human connection, the outdoors, and the stories that unfold between people who love each other deeply. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of documenting countless seasons of love with incredible couples and families. Photography has always been my way of paying attention to the fleeting things: the way someone reaches for your hand, the quiet moments between celebrations, the laughter that cannot be recreated, and the landscapes that become part of your story.

I’m a wife and a mom, and long before settling into life in Seattle, I spent years following a sense of adventure. I grew up in a small desert town tucked beneath the Angeles National Forest, then made my way north after high school, eventually working seasonally in some of the places that shaped my love for the outdoors, including Yosemite, Lake Tahoe, Alaska, Montana, and Portland.

My husband and I even spent a season living out of a van, traveling and chasing beautiful places, before our daughter came along and gave us a reason to slow down and put down some roots.

Those experiences have deeply influenced the way I photograph. I’m drawn to the honest, unscripted moments and the beauty of being somewhere meaningful with the person you love. I want your photographs to feel effortless and timeless, while still preserving the emotion and atmosphere of the day exactly as it was.

When you invite me into such an important part of your story, I take that responsibility seriously. I want to understand what matters most to you, anticipate the moments you may not see coming, and create imagery that feels both artful and deeply personal.

My hope is that years from now, your photographs do more than remind you what your day looked like. I want them to remind you exactly how it felt.
