Based In: California

Hi, I’m Dana. For over eight years, I’ve been capturing elopements and intimate weddings for couples who want a day that feels entirely their own. My goal is to guide you through the process, ease any stress, and deliver stunning, timeless images that preserve every meaningful moment of your day.

The Experience
Planning an elopement is an exciting opportunity to design a day that reflects who you are as a couple. Having eloped myself, I understand the questions and stress that can come with it. I’ll guide you through everything, from crafting a personalized timeline to finding the perfect location for your vows. I take the time to understand your vision so every part of your day feels meaningful and unique. My goal is to capture not just how it looked, but how it felt, so your photos bring those moments back to life.

Yosemite Expert

Yosemite holds a special place in my heart. It’s where I’ve spent years capturing unforgettable elopements and where I exchanged my own vows. As an experienced photographer and past bride, I know this park inside and out. From discovering hidden scenic spots to managing permits and logistics, I’ll make your Yosemite elopement seamless and memorable. Together, we’ll create a day that allows you to fully enjoy the park’s breathtaking beauty.

While Yosemite holds a special place in my heart, I’ve also had the privilege of capturing elopements in breathtaking locations across California and beyond. Whether you’re envisioning a cliffside ceremony, a serene forest exchange, or something entirely unique, I’d love to help bring your vision to life.

Let’s create a day that feels entirely yours.

We are absolutely in love with our Yosemite elopement photos! The photos perfectly capture all the magic and emotion of the day, and they’re even more beautiful than we could have imagined. Dana was amazing to work with- she made everything feel so effortless and fun. We were a little nervous about being in front of the camera, but she made us feel so comfortable!

Dana also helped so much with planning! From creating a timeline to answering all of our questions, she made sure we felt totally prepared and at ease. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and we’re so thankful for all the care and talent Dana put into capturing our special day. These photos are something we’ll treasure forever!

We received our “sneak peek” in less than two days and I cried like a baby. Gorgeous, breathtaking, stunning, HONORED! We received our full gallery a couple of weeks after and I cried again. We can’t stop looking at her photos.

You can certainly can tell right away that she is passionate about what she does and has the talent to match. She catches all the things in one photo that allow you to really feel in that moment once again.. the glimmer in your eye, that perfect combo of different poses, and that moment you thought no one was watching.
