Hey, i’m Dani.

I am a wedding, storytelling & lifestyle photographer based out of Mesa, Arizona but will absolutely travel anywhere in the world to capture your story. I was born & raised here. If I could move somewhere else, my dream places would be: Santa Barbara CA, Portland Oregon, Or Hawaii. ( cmon who wouldn’t want to move there though) … Update: I DID MOVE TO HAWAII!!! for six months! It was the most incredible experience, and truly changed photography forever for me. I connected with clients & nature like I never have before.

I have been doing photography pretty much my entire life. I have always loved taking pictures of people/places. Whether it was of my friends, family, or a beautiful landscape shot, taking pictures & freezing moments in time has always intrigued me. I have always been so inspired by human interaction. The way we interact, connect & relate with other humans is a beautiful thing. Photography has opened up my eyes & shown me what love should feel like, not just look like. 

My job is more than just throwing someone behind my camera & posing them. Each session is creative & unique, based on each couple's needs/wants/style/relationship & so much more. My photos capture timeless moments that you will get to enjoy for the rest of your life. My job is to create intimate & vulnerable moments, and free moments of any emotions you may be feeling during our session. Life isn't always perfect, but I find it remarkable that I get to capture all the different seasons of emotion during our sessions.

MEET THE CREW

I got married to my best friend, Jakob Prince, on December 14th, 2018. Married life is the best. I get to cuddle my best friend everyday, make jokes, cry, laugh, cry again & raise our family together. He really is my better half, & I wouldn’t change that for the world! We welcomed our sweet angel Hayden Prince into the world on October 29th, 2021. He is PURE joy. It has been such a joy watching my husband become a dad, he’s a natural!

I love our in-n-out runs at midnight, relaxing with a fat glass of wine, binge watching new shows together. Literally. We're always watching Netflix, lol. We love to learn new things about space, try new restaurants , decorate our home, go to the mall, & exploring the world together! We also like to people watch, eat tacos, chill with family& friends and of course, spend time with our sweet boy.
