about me

Hi, I’m Danielle! I believe photos and videos should feel less like a formal session and more like a relaxed walk with a friend. A little laughing, a little wandering, maybe a little “wait, do that again.”


Photography and filmmaking are passions I pursue outside of my full-time career in video production. Because I balance this creative work around my primary work schedule, I operate as a seasonal creator with an intentionally smaller calendar. To provide the best possible experience for every client, I primarily schedule time behind the lens on weekend blocks or select evenings, booking sessions closer to the actual dates rather than months in advance.


Outside of balancing my media commitments, I’ve also been navigating cancer treatments since being diagnosed in 2023. Going through that has taught me firsthand how incredibly important it is to romanticize every single moment—which means your support goes straight toward knocking down my medical bills, one beautiful gallery at a time.


If you want vibrant photos or a cinematic film that makes you remember how a season of life truly felt, I would love to take a walk with you!
