BEHIND THE LENS
Hey there! I’m Danielle—wife, mom, and a lover of all things Sonoma County, CA. When I’m not soaking up the sunshine, hiking with my dog, breaking a sweat, or enjoying a fresh cup of coffee (or a well-earned glass of Pinot), you’ll find me cherishing time with my family, the ones who hold my heart.
My journey with photography began 13 years ago when my daughter was born, and in that moment, I felt the irresistible urge to capture every fleeting memory. What started as a passion quickly grew into a career, where I now have the privilege of helping others preserve those blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moments that make life so special.
If you're looking for posed, "say cheese" photos, I may not be the right fit—and that's okay! My style is rooted in the real, the raw, and the beautiful imperfections of life. I specialize in capturing those unscripted, candid moments—the laughter, the messiness, the connections that make your family uniquely yours.
Let’s make some memories together! Through my lens, we’ll tell your story just as it is, full of love, joy, and authenticity.
With love,
Danielle
My APPROACH IS SIMPLY THIS:
The real.
Create artful snapshots of YOUR life.
Allow your moments to speak and feel for themselves.
It's simple. Capture what is real, let the moments lead, and create images that feel honest, and timeless.
By stepping back and observing I get a chance to document the real stuff and that is where the magic is.
PHOTOGRAPHY IS THE ART OF FROZEN TIME...
THE ABILITY TO STORE AND WITHIN A FRAME.'
