Your Destination Wedding Photographer capturing your joy-filled wedding in France by offering destination wedding packages that cover the full-weekend experience.
Your destination wedding deserves more than one perfect day — it deserves a story. I capture the laughter at your welcome dinner, the quiet moments before “I do,” and the wild joy of your final dance. From the vineyards of Provence to villas and Chateaus of the Riviera, your photos will feel effortless, emotional, and entirely yours.
I’ve photographed more than 150 weddings across 7 countries, and what I’ve learned is this — the best photos come from moments when you’re fully present. As your Provence wedding photographer, my goal is to create space for that. I guide you through the process, make sure your loved ones feel seen, and document your weekend so it feels natural, effortless, and full of joy.
I believe wedding weekends are about more than the photos — they’re about connection. The laughter with friends you haven’t seen in years, the quiet moments before you walk down the aisle, the way your family celebrates beside you. Those are the memories I love to capture — the ones that make your day feel completely like you.

I've been in your shoes
When my husband and I planned our wedding, it wasn’t just about the day — it was about time. We were preparing to move to Hawaii for his Navy assignment, and we knew this celebration would be one of the last times we’d have all our favorite people in one place for a while.
That experience changed how I see weddings. They aren’t just events — they’re a rare moment in life when everyone you love is together, celebrating love and connection. It’s why I approach every wedding, especially destination weekends, with such care. I want you to be in the moment, not just posing for it — knowing that every laugh, tear, and toast will be remembered exactly as it felt.
Because at the end of the day, it’s not just about the photos — it’s about the time you’ll never get back.
Every destination wedding tells a story — not just of vows and first dances, but of connection, travel, and the people who mean the most to you. My approach is simple: I photograph your weekend as it unfolds — from the welcome dinner to the farewell brunch — blending timeless portraits with candid, joy-filled moments.
Created for you...
Your story deserves more than a single day. From rehearsal to brunch, I document your entire weekend so every moment — big or small — is remembered.
No stress, no guesswork. I handle all travel logistics and arrive early to ensure everything runs smoothly and beautifully.
Within 4–5 weeks, you’ll receive a curated online gallery filled with heartfelt, joyful. and timeless images that tell your complete wedding story.
With gentle direction and an eye for detail, I help you feel natural in front of the camera — so your photos look like you, at your most joyful.
WHAT’S INCLUDED
Share your destination and wedding weekend plans. We’ll set up a call to dream through your celebration and create a custom proposal.
Once booked, I’ll send your welcome guide and help with timeline planning, vendor communication, and pre-wedding sessions if desired.
From arrival to your final toast, I’ll be there documenting every moment. You’ll receive sneak peeks within the first week and your full gallery within 4–5 weeks.
"Dana is kind, professional, and hilarious!"
She did amazing wrangling our family and friends for photos, and fit right in the intimate setting of our 28 guest wedding in Loire Valley.
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!
- Austyn and Sara
You’re planning something truly special — a wedding weekend that feels like a celebration of love, travel, and connection. You want photos that capture it all: the laughter, the details, and the people who make your story what it is.
If you’re dreaming of a destination wedding that feels relaxed yet elevated, you’re exactly where you need to be. My couples value moments from simple guided poses, emotion over perfection, and experiences that unfold naturally.
You deserve photography that lets you be fully present — and photos that feel like your memories, not a production.
You're in the right place.
I Didn’t Always Know How to Slow Down and Truly Be Present.
Before I became a wedding photographer, I was simply someone trying to hold onto moments that were slipping by too quickly. My husband’s Navy career meant constant change — new cities, new friends, and goodbyes that came too soon. Our wedding taught me how precious time with loved ones really is.
When I started photographing weddings, I carried that perspective with me. I realized my job wasn’t just about capturing pretty portraits — it was about documenting connection, emotion, and the fleeting moments that make a celebration unforgettable.
Now, I bring that same intentionality to every destination wedding I photograph. Whether it’s a sun-drenched day in Provence or a weekend on the Riviera, I focus on the quiet, candid moments that tell your story as it truly felt — warm, joyful, and full of heart.
But it wasn't always this way.
"My wife and I were truly lucky to have Dana photograph our wedding"

"An amazing person and photographer! Dana helped us through: from deciding what shots we wanted, to helping us with our timeline, to shooting engagement photos, to keeping us on schedule on the big day. My husband and I are so happy we went with her"

booked Dana for my destination wedding in the south of France. She was beyond helpful in giving me vendor suggestions and helping me through the planning process. It was such a seamless wedding because of her. I am so lucky to have found her and the moments she captured. Couldn’t recommend her enough for your special events!
"She was extremely relatable and respectful of boundaries. She listened intently and on the wedding day got all our must have shots out of the way in time for us to enjoy our cocktail hour. Her photography style is so beautiful, but I would say the part I enjoyed the most was getting to know her throughout the process. It felt like I had a friend taking our photos and it made for a much more comfortable and enjoyable experience."
Most couples reach out around 12–18 months in advance, especially for Europe or high-season dates.
Every package includes wedding day coverage, rehearsal or welcome dinner photos, online gallery and travel fees.
Once your date and location are set, I handle all my own travel and lodging arrangements.
Definitely. About a month before the wedding, I’ll help build a photo-friendly timeline so your day flows naturally and you can stay present.
I photograph weddings all across Europe, California, and beyond. If your love story is taking you somewhere beautiful, I’ll make it work!
Absolutely. I believe destination weddings are more than one day — they’re a full experience. I’m there to capture it all!
After photographing over 150 weddings, I’ve learned that the best photos often come from unexpected moments. I’ll help adjust the plan, find the light, and make it feel effortless.
