Daniel Colvin Photography

n, don’t walk to hire Daniel Colvin as your wedding photographer. Daniel captured every beautiful emotion in all of our wedding photos. He took ALOT of pictures and delivered brilliance on every single one. I have yet to see any wedding photographer produce high quality photos like Daniel does. The laughs, the smiles, the happy tears….all there in these amazing photos! As great as his photography skills are, he is also a great individual and local vendor. From the beginning he was one of the few vendors that genuinely care about getting to know my husband and I. After speaking with him I decided all of our vendors should be this way, so I vetted every vendor and created an amazing team that supported local businesses and truly cared about my big day. When you hire Daniel you’re hiring someone with long standing experience in the industry. On my wedding day, Daniel took charge and helped direct a few vendors to optimize the pictures being captured. Bottom line…your photos are the only thing you have from your wedding day, don’t get fooled by flashy bundles and discounts offered by large commercial vendors. They do not care about you or your big day. Get a local photographer who knows the industry and cares about his clients like Daniel does.

cided that I needed to make sure he was available before choosing my wedding date because he was so genuine and genuinely invested in our conversation (keep in mind this was several weeks before I was even engaged). After booking Daniel, he set up a time to meet me, my fiancé, and my family for coffee to just get to know us to be able to create a personalized experience before he even drafted a contract. He tailored everything specifically to what was most important to us, and, even more than just for photography's sake, he seemed genuinely interested in getting to know us as people. Our engagement session was a BLAST. My fiancé and I were a bit wary of getting photographed, but once Daniel got to work, we were both at ease. He made the experience so simple and so fun. He was cracking jokes with us and trying fun stylistic things, and we all really enjoyed the session and just getting to hang out together. He gave us a TON of incredible shots to choose from our engagements. My bridal session went so well. Taking pics around my venue with Daniel was like hanging out with a friend and I just happened to be in a wedding dress. He got some beautiful pictures of me, but he made sure to capture some more fun, relaxed ones that captured my personality better. Having Daniel there as our wedding photographer day of was wonderful. He was such a bro and got a lot of good pre-wedding content. Post-ceremony portraits were quick and efficient, which we super appreciated. We just received our wedding photos back about a week ago and, MAN OH MAN, Daniel did not hold back. I ended up posting 1600+ pictures to Facebook (not sorry), and that was after narrowing it down to my favorites. Yes, Daniel Colvin Photography may be a bit pricier than some other popular photographers, but he is absolutely worth it. A lot of wedding day choices only matter the day of, but years from now, these pictures are what I'll have to look back on, and Daniel captured our day perfectly. (I am also eagerly awaiting our hand-crafted wedding story album). 10/10 photographer, 10/10 guy, 10/10 friend

r a photographer who would take the time and effort to seek out the truly meaningful moments. Now 2 years later, our engagement and wedding day photos do exactly that! Seeing them brings me right back to our wonderful day. He's given us a lifetime of memories! He'll always hold a special place in our hearts for his genuine professionalism, killer style and fiery beard. 10/10 times we’d choose him again to be our photographer!

ortable all the time. The synergy between him, his assistant, my doggy and us was absolutely lovely. We had a lot of fun all together doing the photoshoot (many hours passed so fast despite the cold weather in Paris!) And the result was AMAZING! We couldn't be happier with the beautiful memories captured by Daniel. We totally recommend his work! VERY pleasant to work with & breathtaking pictures.

ography speaks for itself. We "met" virtually and instantly could feel his passion for capturing love. When it came time for the actual shoot, his natural instincts took over to guide us along the way to capture some amazing shots. He never wanted to stage anything, which can feel unnatural. He was able to make us feel comfortable while getting our photos taken, something we didn't have much experience with prior. He was up for doing whatever it took to get the right shot. It was such an adventure from start to finish with him, and we couldn't have asked for a better guide on our journey. The end result was stunning. I would highly recommend Daniel for anyone who wants to capture their love and joy, wherever in the world that may be.

ase. We laughed the entire time and had such an incredible time. Daniel’s photos make me feel like a movie star and I will recommend him to anyone who will listen until the day I die! Do yourself a favor and book Daniel! He is so dynamic and will modify his editing to fit your vibe. We love Daniel forever and ever and this was the best wedding decision we made!

nd uniqueness of people in unparalleled. Daniel shot our engagements, my bridals, and our wedding, which was so special because he got to be there through the entire journey and capture it all. He really told our story and did it phenomenally! When we look back at all of our photos, they are so special because he didn’t just capture the moments in time, but he captured US! Everything about my husband and I that makes us special is forever in our photos. We have been married for a little over a year now, and we look back through our photos all the time and every time it brings us right back. It’s like we get to relive all of those memories again and again. Seriously, tears every time. Not only is he incredibly talented but he is also a seasoned vet that will make the entire process stress free. Not once did I have to worry about anything. (Which says A LOT coming from a classic Type A personality). I always knew I could count on him to be there and capture AMAZING photos. He knows all the right questions to ask and will always be on your side when it comes to making sure you get the photos that you want, not that everyone else wants. Plus, shooting with him is a BLAST! My husband and I were so nervous right before our engagement session and Daniel made us feel so comfortable and natural. If it wasn’t already obvious, you should hire him!! It will be the best decision you make! (Other than getting married of course!)

easy to put words around what Daniel's work means to my husband, Kyle, and me. Like many couples who had wedding plans in 2020, our planning hit an abrupt stop with the onset of the pandemic. In addition to how overwhelming wedding planning felt, even without a pandemic, we had to grapple with the uncertainty of what the future held and how to get married safely. We decided to get married a few months earlier than expected with just our immediate families. Daniel was one of the few vendors we had booked when we decided to adjust our plans, and he could not have been accommodating and supportive. He went above and beyond his job description as our photographer. When we queued him in on the changes, he spent over an hour on the phone with me, hashing out the ceremony's new vision. Daniel was attentive to our thoughts and emotions and how he could capture our wedding, especially with this unexpected twist. On the day of the wedding, he far surpassed our expectations. We are not a couple that is comfortable in front of the camera, so the experience of being photographed throughout the day was foreign to us. Daniel was so stealthy during the ceremony that we almost forgot he was there (mind you, we were in a small room with ~10 people). After the ceremony, Daniel took our portraits as newlyweds. Daniel skillfully directed us to different areas and posed us so naturally that it didn't feel like uncomfortable, goofy wedding photos. He made us feel at ease, and the process was insanely fun. We busted out into genuine laughter more times than I can remember because of the ridiculous banter. In addition to the traditional wedding portraits you typically see, I really wanted to have a few more artistic or unusual photos - Daniel delivered. He brought a unique perspective to the areas we were shooting and identified props we might not have thought of using otherwise (e.g., a massive bird of paradise plant). He created unexpected moments that lead to breathtaking photos. When we got our photos, I was stunned because they were more than I could have imagined. Kyle and I spent hours smiling and reminiscing. My mom cried when she saw the photos because of how beautiful they were and the pictures brought back all the emotions she felt on that day. My mother-in-law felt the same way and made the comment that Daniel captured every single moment she remembered from that day. I could rave forever about how happy we are with our photos and the entire process. Daniel is professional, considerate, and overall great person to spend time around. He crafted a bespoke experience from the proposal to the gallery that made this process feel even more special. It is evident Daniel does what he loves and he is a storyteller above all else. I could not recommend Daniel more and can't wait for him to photograph our vow renewal with our larger group of family and friends in a year.

d wedding ceremony and was there with us every step of the way. Within the first few minutes of meeting Daniel, we knew he was the one to capture our most special moments of our engagement and our big day. His outgoing and personable personality makes you feel like you are around a friend and keeps you comfortable and confident in front of the camera. He is the best director and has such an artistic eye for things that you don't even think about until you see the stunning final images. His work is beyond amazing and he gives you something that no one else can - he captures the most important and beautiful moments that create memories for a lifetime. 3 years later, I still look at Daniel's photos he took for us and am just as amazed by the beauty of the final products as I was when I first saw them all. I love getting to relive the moments through pictures and remember all of the small details that you tend to forget about or even miss amongst the chaos that is your wedding day. He has such a talent and I am so thankful we found him and took advantage of all of the different options he had to offer for us. He tailored each and every shoot to exactly what we wanted and made our visions a reality and better than we ever expected! I am so grateful Daniel was a part of our wedding experience and recommend him to everyone I know that is starting their journey to marriage!

and I, made everyone feel comfortable on the day of the wedding, and helped us navigate our changing plans in the setting of the pandemic with compassion. I was not surprised that the pictures were incredible but I do not think I was prepared for just HOW incredible. They manage to be both 'fine art' and 'photojournalistic' at the same time. I feel like he really captured on the moments that were the most emotionally beautiful and poignant to us, and portrayed them in a way that is also aesthetically stunning. Those pictures take me back to the joy and peace and happiness I felt the day of our wedding, and I've gotten so many compliments from our loved ones that unfortunately were not able to travel. Please ask me questions about working with Daniel. He's truly the best vendor I worked with, and his art is stunning

life in pictures. We had Daniel do my bridals along with our wedding and I am so grateful that I found him! His pictures are not staged posey shots that you normally see. He learns about his couples, and uses that to decide on pictures to take capturing who you are in pictures and real raw emotion that makes pictures a million times more valuable. We are so happy with his work and cant say enough good things!

say that I will continue to look at our wedding photos for the rest of time. Reliving the day through Daniel's camera was so mesmerizing and emotional and beautiful! He captured the exact mood, romance, emotion, love, happiness, excitement - everything that I wanted in my wedding photos. They came out so stunning, and Daniel does such an amazing job with posing you and creating the moment. You don't even realize he's there taking photos - that's how comfortable he makes you feel! Take my advice and hire Daniel for any photo needs - he won't disappoint.

niel as our photographer! First of all, he was immediately family! We were so comfortable with him and it was just easy - he knows exactly what he's doing and he's so laid back and loving! Second, his pictures are STUNNING, STRAIGHT OUT OF A MAGAZINE, SHUT YOUR MOUTH SO GOOD! After the wedding was over, he invited my husband and I over to "reveal" the photos, where he had created a slide-show to music, and provided all of our favorite snacks while we cried and viewed our photos. My friends loved him and we had so much fun on the big day! He even pranked my fiance during our engagement photo with an idea him and I came up with together and it was one of the funniest moments ever, and ened up turning into the greatest picture!! I will cherish these pictures FOREVER and I will cherish how special he made us feel!

cted him, but my husband and I were sold after meeting him for an extended lunch. Never once did he push us, and he even managed to convince me that I didn’t need the second photographer I was set on. True life- hire Daniel Colvin and you won’t! He is down to earth, funny, and super relaxed; everything you’re going to need on your wedding day. For the most part, I completely forgot he was even there on the day of. Don’t worry though, he was and I have AMAZING photographs to prove it! Daniel came over for dinner and a preview party where he put together a slideshow of the day and had samples to assist us with our order. It was such a personalized and special touch to be able to view our photographs like that for the first time, and a huge help to have his assistance in deciding what were the best options for us. My husband and I couldn’t believe that we were looking at OUR wedding photos. We received over 1,200 photos and every. single. one. of them was beautiful. The hardest part of the entire process was choosing the 15% we wanted in our album! I feel so blessed that these are the photographs that will forever represent one of the biggest days of our lives, and I can’t wait to show them to our great-grandchildren 50 years from now. Do yourself a favor- go ahead and hire Daniel. You will be so grateful you did.

moments and learning about other amazing moments that happened (because you can't be everywhere at once) while looking through all the photos! That is the best part of our photos! He caught the love, the excitement, the goofy, the goosebumps, the overwhelming emotions, the silly, the hilarity, the awesome, and more! He is one of our absolute favorite vendors we booked and he vibed so well with everyone without making photographing very awkward, especially as the groom and I tend to feel awkward in front of a camera. We love his storytelling style and I didn’t feel he disturbed the party at all, but was rather an integral part of it. He has a genuine interest in people and moments and is so great to hang out with! No stress—just chill and fun! You want him to capture your day—that way you can continue to relive it over and over again! Thanks, Daniel!

s down right a work of art. When I first met Daniel I knew we would be instant pals. He is such an easy going guy with a killer personality. He was able to shut off any insecurities I felt in front of the camera and really help my husband and I just enjoy the moment. From engagements, to bridals(highly recommend), to the big day, he literally KNOCKED my expectations out of the park. I am still blown away by how he was able to tell the story of our love. Not just my husband and I’s Love but the love of our family and friends. Our tribe. I will never forget opening those photos and becoming a big ball of tears. I honestly couldn’t even find any thing to critize myself on—now that is all his artistry. He made us this really unique wedding books that we still keep on our coffee table and am always super proud to show off. I have people 3 years later who still message me about who our photographer was and how impressed they were. He is photographing one of my best friends wedding in a few months. I am almost just as excited for her to open those photos as I was for myself! Can’t wait to see you soon daniel! Thank you for the everlasting love you captured. I can speak for my whole family, we will cherish them and you forever!

He was so patient, creative, and fun. We could hardly wait to see how the images turned out, and they could not have turned out any more amazing. Looking back at our photos, I laughed at the hilarious moments, and cried at the sweet ones. I am now able to relive my wedding day through the most beautiful pictures thanks to Daniel.

wanted to work with. Daniel is professional, talented, and most importantly, just an all around awesome dude. He just fit right in with everyone and made working with us easy and enjoyable. Our whole wedding party, families, and friends loved working with him. He managed to capture every detail, feeling, and candid moment even more artistically and beautifully than we could have anticipated. When it comes to photography, a big concern is always: “are we going to get a picture of this specific moment”, or “did we get one with these people”. But when we got our pictures back, there wasn’t a single goofy, ridiculous, or sweet instant missed. Daniel’s style of photography makes your wedding specific to you through storytelling—beginning to end. When we received our photos we could not have been happier. He really captured who we are and our personalities. Now we have photographs both us and our families are proud of, that we can print and put everywhere in our homes. All of this to say, you should definitely hire Daniel.

o be relaxed and playful and made the entire picture taking process a blast. Also, he’s a fun and interesting person to know and is easy to get along with. I liked just about all of the pictures he took of us and will be proud to display them in our home. Glad we booked with Daniel for our pictures.

. I would hire Daniel in a heart beat for any photo shoots I would need in the future.

s about how beautiful they are. Good photography was a pretty high priority for our engagement, bridals and wedding day pictures. Photos are really the only piece you are able to keep of the whole day, besides your memories. As soon as I saw Daniel's website I knew his style was what I was hoping & looking for. I loved the candid moments he captured and the use of natural lighting. It just seemed like I could feel the love the couples had for one another through his photos. It's true, what he captures is truly authentic, my fiancé and I felt even more connected after taking our engagement pictures with Daniel. My fiancé and I both feel like we are just not photogenic people, but Daniel showed us that we actually are. I love so many of the pictures he took of us. We have so many to choose from, which is never the case for me usually. Daniel went above and beyond for us throughout this whole process. He was not available to take our wedding day pictures (I was a little late with booking vendors), but instead of just saying he was unavailable and good luck, Daniel provided me with a well thought out list of photographers who he personally recommended and knew and who were also available for our date. I couldn't believe he did that for me, he really didn't have to at all. I'm just so happy we got to work with Daniel and I look forward to booking him again for all our future photo needs!

nd weddings as I do while having a TON of fun doing it. Weddings are suppose to be fun and stress free, and Daniel will definitely be a good fit for any couple that want just that! Aside from his amazing persona (good vibes only), his devotion for creative photography definitely shows in his work (go see it!). He is a gifted artist and his ingenious approach in capturing candid, exciting moments show you the authenticity of each wedding which I love. I have full trust in him that he will provide you a finished product that you will want to brag about for years.

iful photos that just bring back all the happiness of the day. He captured our entire day perfectly and the variety and quality far exceeded my expectations. It should also be noted he spent the entire night on the dance floor with us and it was so much fun to see all the shots of us and our guests having the best time!

ase during a shoot. I never felt awkward or uncomfortable at all. He can also tell if you aren’t feeling a certain shot or pose. He listens and is very attentive. I wouldn’t ever use anyone else!

hat shots look good, and doesn't need any ideas to show his creativity and artistry through photography. I booked my bridal portraits as well as the smallest wedding package with him and he did not disappoint. Every photo was different, fun, and unique. Every emotion from both days was captured perfectly! Additionally, Daniel is so laid back and he works well with everyone. Don't worry about feeling awkward or like your day is invaded by a photographer, Daniel blends in during special moments but also knows how to organize group photos. I had so much fun working with him, you will not regret your decision! Just don't forget that professional photos take time, so be patient.

ears it was truly amazing work. I will happily recommend to Daniel to all my family and friends.

ewedding, wedding, and reception, and we felt like his presence at the wedding / ceremony was a very welcome one. Our guests all loved him too. For a dude walking around taking pictures for 12 hours, he did a great job maintaining his composure and staying upbeat. He does a fantastic job of avoid the super posey pictures, and focuses on capturing moments at just the right time. I've seen other people's wedding albums on Facebook and none of them have come close to what Daniel offered us. I highly, highly recommend Daniel for your wedding photographer.

os. Normally I would feel a little awkward having someone take so many photos of me but Daniel warmed us up for our engagement shoot, and it was a blast! He knows how to make you feel comfortable and relaxed which I think is one reason why the pictures are so awesome! My husband and I had a destination wedding which came with many stresses but having Daniel as our photographer put me as ease because I knew no matter what he would be able to capture the love and joy shared by us, our family and friends. When I first viewed my wedding photos I literally had tears of joy! He captured every special moment and I will treasure these memories for the rest of my life.

ns, went into my chaotic timeline like a champ and had a blast with us! So with that said, I’d first like to say he is so FUN to work with! He makes you feel relaxed, helps you with poses without you looking incredibly cheesy or awkward, he manages to capture who YOU really are! (My husband, bridesmaids and groomsmen LOVED him)He’s a story teller. When we got our pictures back, I am not kidding when I said my jaw dropped and was flooded with every good emotion. Every time we look back at the photos, it feels like were reliving the day all over again! And that is EXACTLY what you want from your photos, isn’t it?! He’s so sneaky too, like I mentioned above he captures who you are, during ceremony and reception, I almost forgot he was there, but managed to capture our every move, during the sweet moments, and the quite hilarious ones. By looking at the series of photos, you would have thought we hired at least two-three photographer with how many great shots we got back! And not only were they great candid moments, the quality of photos were perfection. My venue was very dark, so I was a little skeptical how well they could have turned out, but I am not kidding when I say we received perfection back. I feel like I am rambling on at this point, but I really could gush all day about Daniel and his work. THANK YOU for creating memories that will last a lifetime. We are so grateful for all you did for us!

o every other bride! The package we ordered from him included a photobook for the reception and a copy of all edited images.
