The light and airy images you see are based on years of experience perfecting my craft. In 2021, I spent time in Europe learning from some of the best wedding photographers in the world. From rainy days in the U.K. to hot days in France, and cooler weather in Greece, each workshop taught me how to handle every weather and lighting scenario - both indoors and outdoors - from matching skin tones to perfecting 'the greens.' With this experience, and over 150 real weddings photographed all over the U.S., I strive to bring an unforgettable experience and beautiful imagery to the couples I get to serve - whether in Florida or someplace magical.
I love editorial images that are mantle-worthy, but I also love flirty, candid moments that are fun. Here at DWD, you can have both from your wedding day.
That you can have both classy and fun candids
Listen, when I photograph someone, I guide them. I find the right light that makes you look good, and guide you into posing, as well as direct you when needed, so you can ensure your images always look natural, never stiff.
You shouldn't have to worry about where you place your hands, or where to look
From the welcome dinner to the wedding day, DWD strives to meet, get to know, and photograph your guests.
Your guests should feel included
The first city abroad that I have traveled and experience, and since then, have been here 5 more times (and counting). In a past life, I feel like I lived on the Island of Cite, enjoying a cup of tea and shopping for fruits and antiques.
Paris
Not only did my parents serve in the military, but my husband has been serving in the Navy as a Submariner since 2013. Together, we have lived in 8 different states and in two countries. This is why I always love serving couples who are military, first responder, or healthcare. Because your sacrifice matters most!
Military Life
I love Paris, but I also love traveling more. I get to see what tiny space I occupy in this world, by seeing and exploring other countries. From Asia to Cuba to Europe, and everywhere in-between, each trip teaches me a lesson and brings me joy on what life brings.
Travel
GET TO KNOW Dana
Her photos speak for themselves. It was such a wonderful, magical time in person, and her photos really captured the essence of the setting and people. I love that I will have this album forever, I treasure these photos!
Being a destination floral designer I see a ton of photos everyday, these photos stand the test of time! So clean and fresh! She is a true artist. Highly recommended.
Dana is amazing! From our first meeting to post-wedding, she is very responsive, considers our needs as the couple, and went above and beyond in the days before the wedding day and during the wedding itself.
