Yosemite National Park is my all-time favorite location for any photography session. Glacier Point at sunrise? It’s just the cherry on top. Sure getting up at 1 am to drive from Hanford isn’t pretty but the view and lack of crowds make it worth it. I was so excited when Dani approached me and suggested […]

Kristina and Randy are literally my DREAM clients. When I met them last Summer I knew I had to shoot their wedding. They are sweet as can be, quirky, adorable, they LOVE Disney (Kristina is basically a real-life Disney Princess), a bit nerdy (like me), and they were getting married in Yosemite. I could not […]

I first met Tasha & Nolen last summer during their engagement session. These two were hilarious and we had such a good time at their engagement shoot. About a month later Tasha saw my booth at the Bridal Collective Bridal Show at Morovia Winery, she came right up to me and gave me a big hug (seriously, she’s a great hugger!). Tasha told me how much she loved her engagement photos and how everyone else loved them. She told me that when it came time to book their wedding photographer they knew it had to be me, that Nolen wouldn’t accept anyone else. I don’t know if they knew how much that meant to me, I do this because I LOVE it and don’t always hear back from clients about how much they love their images so to be trusted with their wedding day was a huge deal to me.

I realize it isn’t fall (burr! I think the low today was 31) but I never posted about my fall mini’s from 2018! I figured with my almond blossom mini sessions coming up I should let you guys see all the gorgeousness from my fall mini’s. Of course I love, love, loved my fall set […]

Misti and Michael got married on a chilly November evening just after Sunset. It was my first evening ceremony as a photographer and now I am obsessed! Give me all the night weddings. Especially if there are loads of twinkle lights everywhere. Because Misti and Michael were getting married after sunset they decided to have […]

When my sister in law told me she wanted to do an Alice in “Onederland” theme for my nieces first birthday I was all heart-eyes-emoji for the idea!

I love when I get to photograph couples before their big day! It really helps the bride and groom get comfortable with me and in front of my camera.

I love getting to be apart of weddings, I will always be grateful that people ask me to be to photograph their big day, it’s always special but when family asks I feel even more honored. Justin’s sister Melissa was getting married! 

I am so excited to get the opportunity to photograph Desmond and Nhela’s Wedding in Yosemite National Park next weekend. When we first talked and they said they were having a summer wedding at Glacier Point I knew I was the perfect match as their photographer…

My name is Dana.

I am a portrait and wedding photographer based in California’s Central Valley.
