TESTIMONIALS
 
CERY S.
"Dana has a rare gift - not just for photography, but for making families feel completely at ease. Our son's six month session was pure joy and our Christmas family photos were so special they became our holiday cards. We can't imagine documenting our family's milestones without her."
Patty c.
"I have had such a great experience working with Dana on more than one occasion. She has captured such good head shots and branding photos for me. She is so talented and makes me feel so comfortable in front of the camera. Most importantly she makes the whole experience fun and easy!"
sARA D.
"From the moment our session started, Dana guided us every step of the way, kept us laughing, and somehow effortlessly managed the energy of our three boys. These are memories we will treasure forever. Dana isn't just exceptional at her craft - she's a genuinely wonderful person with a warm personality that instantly puts you and your family at ease."
How do I book a photo session with you?
Let's chat! Reach out through my contact form and let me know what type of photography you are looking for. I usually book out three months in advance to try to plan accordingly. In the summer months, I usually book out five months in advance. A non-refundable retainer and signed contract are required to hold your date.
How long does it take to receive the final photos?
For portraits, my turnaround time is usually two weeks or less! I usually send sneak peeks within 48 hours. For weddings, I send full galleries within 6-8 weeks and sneak peeks within 72 hours.
How many photos come in a package?
A 30 minute session usually includes between 30-50 edited images. For one hour sessions, I usually have about 70-90 images. Full 8 hour wedding galleries typically have 500 or more photos. All of the images in your gallery can be downloaded, shared with family and friends and printed directly from your digital link!
What happens if there is bad weather?
I want your pictures to look good as much as you do! If there are strong winds, storms, or rain, I will gladly work with you to reschedule.
Do you travel?
I do travel! For weddings I travel up to 2 hours at no additional charge. For family portrait sessions, I charge a travel fee for shoots more than 20 miles from Wilmington.
Do you offer mini sessions?
I do offer mini sessions for holiday photos! Be sure to follow my socials for when those are announced. I do not offer one off mini sessions or individual mini sessions.
Do you offer prints?
I do! You will actually be able to order prints directly from your online gallery that is sent to you. You will also be able to share the gallery with friends and family so they can also order print. I strongly recommend using the online gallery for all of your printing needs due to the high quality print labs used. You have invested in high end photography, you will want great prints!
Do you provide outfits?
For family sessions, I do not provide outfits, but I do provide a custom wardrobe guide I created to help you with what to wear! If you are doing a one-year-old studio session, I do have outfits to choose from!
Do you offer studio sessions?
Absolutely! I have an in-home studio which is great for small families, one-year-old sessions and headshots. Because my studio is small, I am not able to accommodate family shoots inside of the studio. The studio is also not wheelchair accessible.
