capturing timeless, luxury wedding photography and films for couples tying the knot in South Dakota, Minnesota, and destination locations in the US.
The first step is filling out my inquiry form and jumping on a discovery call with me to make sure we're the perfect fit for each other. We'll discuss your wedding vision, what's important to you, as well as walk you through my process.
When you’re ready to book, I'll send you my online booking link to sign your agreement and pay your retainer online. We'll then send over your client portal with our Signature Wedding Planning Guide, a crazy amount of exclusive planning freebies, and schedule your engagement session!
This is when we really get to know each other and get you comfortable in front of my camera! I'll help you plan your outfits, choose a location and coach you through all the posing. After the session is over, you'll be featured on our website in a blog post full of our favorite images and you'll receive your full gallery within 2 weeks!
After filling out my wedding day details questionnaire, I will create a custom timeline for you, then we will jump on a phone call and adjust it to fit your vision. I'll offer suggestions to make sure we have plenty of time for the moments that mean most to you.

We know each wedding is unique, but we still want to tell your story from beginning to end. This is why we offer 8 hours of coverage at least. Wedding days go by fast, so my goal is to make your wedding experience as effortless and enjoyable as possible. From capturing all your thoughtful details to that big dip kiss in front of the sunset, we'll be there to capture everything.
Sneak peeks are delivered within 48 hours and a highlight blog within a week to share. Then, you'll receive your full gallery within 4-6 weeks in an online gallery. You can download your high-resolution digital files, share, and prints. If you ordered an album, we'll begin the customization process! Full wedding highlight films are returned within 6-8 weeks.
At the heart of my wedding experience is a commitment to crafting an journey that provides a helping hand, extending from your initial inquiry to the moment you hold your timeless images. In the Midwest, I completely understand how most couples choose to not hire a wedding day planner or coordinator. At one point, I was that bride and I regret not having someone with experience to walk me through the process. This is why I love navigating the intricate wedding planning process alongside my couples through providing timeline planning support and resources that alleviate stress and transform wedding days into a seamless and stress-free celebration.
By empowering couples with the confidence that their wedding day will unfold seamlessly, my guidance allows them to revel in the joy of the moment and savor the beauty of their unique love story. I strive to be more than a photographer and videographer; I want to be your trusted partner, ensuring that every moment of your wedding journey is captured with grace and cherished for a lifetime.

"We hired Danielle for our wedding after our original photo/video team cancelled on us 6 months out. As stressful as it was, I’m so glad that happened because Danielle is AMAZING. She is truly one of the sweetest people I have ever met and her light and airy photos are stunning. She is very professional and organized. She loves what she does and it shows through her work. We all know posing for pictures is awkward sometimes, but Danielle made us and our bridal party feel comfortable on the wedding day and it shows in the photos just how much fun we had with her."

"Danielle has such a kind heart! She is patient, easy going, flexible, and makes any session fun! I appreciate Danielle going above and beyond for her clients by providing so many items to prep for your engagement session and wedding!"
Picture this: you are celebrating your 50th anniversary surrounded by 50 of your children, grandchildren, and closest friends, one month after your significant other passed away. Your son surprises you by turning on your wedding film. Immediately, you hear the emotion in your lover's voice as they read their vows. Not a dry eye is found in the room. You hear your grandson say, "Hi, grandpa!". Everyone laughs at a blooper moment. You giggle, then start laughing. Your heart floods with emotion and they don't feel so far away anymore.
"Danielle reached out to me after having a very horrible experience with our original wedding photographer, she offered us everything we could have ever wanted and more. She kept in touch with us throughout the months approaching and always had an answer for everything. She was unable to attend our event herself, but assured us that she had backups to her backups, and she did! They were incredible, we have only been able to see some of our day so far, but even that was 200+ photos (DELIVERED 4 DAYS AFTER WEDDING) that were absolutely breathtaking. We can't wait to see the rest, and 10/10 recommend."

"Danielle was incredible to work with. Open to suggestions, but still gives clear directions and is so fun to work with. She really made my big day feel so special and she captured it all so well. She was so amazing to work with before and during the photoshoot (engagement). She had tons of good ideas and was willing to try any ideas we had. She was very kind, energetic, and happy the whole time. I would definitely recommend her."

are wanting these four things
Need a wedding photographer or videographer who creates a Christ-centered atmosphere and values marriage, while seamlessly balances serenity with assertiveness when needed

For every thing, there is a season. We will all experience seasons of laughter and also heartbreak. Through my own journey of facing many obstacles, I know one thing will remain true--God has a plan and purpose for it all.
Though we may not know it in the midst of the battles we face, God intends to use the bad for good as a testimony of His love and power in our lives. We are given a gift from this--to meet other people in their brokenness and help carry them through the battle they could not win alone.

"Danielle was a sweetheart to work with! She was our videographer for our April 30th wedding. She was so flexible, accommodating, and had the best ideas! It rained and rained, but she still made our vision come true. I can't wait to relive our day each year through our video."
