Wedding Photographer for joyful couples who want an experience that is rich in connection and light on stress.
Jacksonville, Florida Wedding Photographer
Destinations with Dana focuses on photographing weddings for Florida couples who want the entire experience captured. From the engagement session to the rehearsal dinner and the wedding day. Each package is tailored around the full experience and created for the couples who care deeply about how their family and friends feel throughout the weekend, and who want those meaningful moments documented just as intentionally as the portraits.
As Seen In
I'm Dana, a destination wedding photographer based in Jacksonville, Florida
As your light and airy wedding photographer, I bring over 8 years of experience photographing weddings for couples who want the full weekend covered. The wedding day matters, but so does the wedding-day walkthrough and the rehearsal dinner. You and your guests deserve to look back on your wedding gallery years down the road and say "wow, what an amazing weekend that was!". That is where I come in.

About your photographer
I believe the connection you have with me is just as important as your appreciation of the images. Get to know more about DWD and why I am the right Florida wedding photographer for you.
"Dana captured our day so beautifully! I could not have asked for better photos and a more fun photographer to work with. She is incredibly talented, makes you laugh during photo shoots (which makes the photos turn out incredible), is accommodating, and gets photos back in a very timely manner."
- Sarah and Lucian
WHY I JUMP OUT OF BED IN THE MORNING
Your wedding photos
matter
I want to document every single moment of your wedding day. I know firsthand that sometimes you never know when you’ll want to look back and relive a specific memory. It’s not always the moments you expect to mean the most that do. Your first kiss matters, but so does that sweet first look with your Dad and the toast that made you laugh so hard you cried!

Do you photograph beach weddings?
Absolutely! Whether it’s sunrise on Amelia Island or golden hour in Ponte Vedra, I know how to work with the light, breeze, and tides for stunning portraits.
