More About Me

We cannot say enough good things about Dan and his work! From the start he was super helpful, willing to work within out budget, and was more than flexible. He is genuinely a great person and you can see how much he cares about his work. He made us both along with our guests feel so comfortable! Our guests cannot stop complimenting his work! He was able to capture every special moment and so many details. By far the BEST photographer either of us have worked with! We would recommend him a million times over and can't wait to have him capture our future milestones!

Dan did a phenomenal job overall. We highly recommend him! Before the wedding, he worked closely with us to understand what types of shots we wanted and what was important to us. We absolutely love what we ended up with! Anyone would be lucky to have Dan as a wedding photographer!

Marissa | Robert
I cannot say enough good things about Dan. From our first conversation, to the day of the wedding he was pleasant to be around and down to earth. He was not pushy to get pictures done, rather he catered to what the bride/groom wanted for their special day. He was kind an courteous to our wedding party and guests alike. His work is incredible and I am so pleased with how our photos turn out! I cannot recommend him enough!

Laura | Andrew

Brittany | Joseph
Dan really captured the beauty of my venue, and the happiness expressed by me, my groom and all of my guest. The pictures are more then I could have hoped for . The experience was seemless and so comfortable. I can not thank him enough for the amazing pictures he took for us!

Leana | Charles
If you are in need of a photographer, look no further, Dan is AMAZING. He honestly was one of the best parts of my wedding day. He ensured photo sessions went smoothly and directed everyone where to go in a calm and professional manner. We had a lot of fun; it wasn't stressful or awkward at all. From our first conversation until the actual day, everything was seemless and professional.

Melissa | Andy
I can’t say enough about Dan. He was so easy to work with! He made us feel like we were life long friends. After having to postpone our wedding twice because of Covid, then deciding to elope but still have photos taken, Dan traveled to Boston for us. Dan spent the whole day with us and captured such beautiful pictures. I would recommend him to everyone I know.

Alexis | Ryan
Working with Daniel was a true gift throughout the whole process. He was alway incredibly professional, very responsive, and listened to everything we told him about ourselves, interests, and our expectations. He was so good about being candid, in the best way possible, if he thought something might not work and always had great solutions. He was one of our biggest cheerleaders and was such a great presence on on the day of. I would love to have Daniel capture all of the special moments in my life if I could. Highly recommend!

We had the best time working with Dan. He was very professional and punctual at all times we worked with him. He makes you feel very comfortable and he is super friendly. You don’t have to be a model working with Dan, he knows how to get the right pictures. You can see his creative side come out in your photos. We still get non stop compliments about our photos and how excellent the night was caught on his camera. We relive every moment looking at our pictures.
