Hi, friend.
I'm Danielle. Thanks for stopping by.
I'm a Canadian gal who found herself living in Sugar Land, TX about two years ago and is learning to love the heat and humidity (work in progress!).
I'm not big on trends. I focus on photos that are classic, beautiful and timeless. I want to bottle up joy and deliver it in a photo package you'll love.
If you don't mind my Canadian sense of humor and the occasional "eh", I'd love to work with you.
Candid(ish) Style
If you're not a model you may feel kind of awkward in front of the camera. I know I do. That's why I shoot candid(ish). Instead of waiting around for a moment to happen, I prompt you and your family into interactions that are still spontaneous and joy filled.
I don't wait for magic. I make it.
Natural, Timeless Portraits
Some people are born ready to strike a pose. Some people are more shy (raises hand). I guide you through your photoshoot with fun prompts, games, questions and reminders so you never feel awkward.
It's not posed. It's not me following you around with a camera while you wonder if your chin looks weird (it doesn't). It's almost candid, but with a friend who fixes that weird hair that always sticks up and puts you directly in the steam of beautiful light behind you.

Danielle was so lovely and professional to work with. She was great about rescheduling our family photoshoot when it rained and had so many fun games for the kids to play. I've had family photos before but have never had a session go so smoothly and gotten so many amazing photos out of it! I can't wait to do it again next year!"
Abbie t., Sugar Land, TX
"I didn't think we would get a single good photo- our toddler had a meltdown and my husband was so grumpy. But Danielle was so patient and even had emergency snacks packed when I forgot! We got SO many beautiful shots, and she even got my husband to smile a real smile. "
Beena, M., Houston, TX
"I was five days postpartum, exhausted and emotional and Danielle showed up like a calming presence and captured my son so beautifully I cried happy tears when I saw the photos. I didn't even want to be in the pictures but she convinced me and I am so glad she did! I will treasure these photos forever!"

Weird Facts About Me
(because we're practically friends).
Recovering Lawyer
I was a trial attorney for 17 years. But I promise I'm not evil.
Animal Lover
Dogs are my favorite people.
Mom
I have two kids. One is a teenager. But I still like her.
Perennial Hobbiest
I love to start new hobbies. I do not keep said hobbies.
Sorry, plants.
Canadian, eh
I'm a Canadian. So if you step on my toes I'll probably apologize to you.
Anatomical Mystery
I have 8 wisdom teeth. Which either makes me a shark or very wise.
Love soft colors, dreamy light and authentic emotion?
You're in the right place.
Capture Joy
Ever look back at old family photos and think, man, they loved me so much?
Me too. And that's what I want to document in every photo session with you and your littles.
Because one day they will look back through an old photo box (hologram? who knows), and think: man, they loved me so much.
I'm not crying. You're crying.
