Hey, welcome to the newly engaged! If you are looking for a fun, assertive, and problem solving photographer, then you have come to the right place my dears.
My name is Dana and I am a destination wedding photographer based out of Monterey and here to serve all couples getting married in the Bay Area of California.
Let me be up front and say that I do not offer services to just any couple who inquires for my services. The relationship is just as important as you liking my images, and therefore this about page is for you to see if we are a great fit for both photography and for personality/connection.
