Danielle was great! You could tell she really loves her job. She wasn’t afraid to tell us how to pose or where to stand and I liked that! She was also super helpful with little things a bride might need help with! Bustling my dress, fixing my n...

Amber!! I am so happy to hear that you love your photos and your experience with me! Thank you for your amazing review and for asking me to spend the day with you!
Danielle provided everything you would want in a wedding photographer: punctual, professional, and creative with her shots. She definitely excels at outdoor photography, and we got a lot of great shots at the local park and outside the church. ...
Photos were delivered quickly, too.

Kerstin! Thank you so much for asking me to spend your day with you!!
Danielle shot my fiance and I's engagement; not just engagement photos, but also capturing the whole moment. She came to the location extra early so she could scope it out before we arrived and then found a place to hide while my fiance propos...
ed - not easy to do in a literal open field. Because my fiance surprised me with the proposal, neither of us had been able to meet her beforehand. She instantly made both of us incredibly comfortable, especially me, who had NO idea what was going on. Danielle was wonderfully warm and kind as she took our photos, and she got some really creative shots that made our shoot unique (like incorporating the pizza we brought on our picnic!). Moreover, she made the shoot a lot of fun, so all our smiles and reactions captured on film were natural, which made the shots look so much better.
She is also wonderfully communicative. Danielle kept us up to date as she edited our pictures and sent us previews of many shots right away, so we could post to social media as we wanted. She was quick to respond to any questions or concerns we had along the way. We cannot sing her praises enough. Thank you so much for making our engagement so memorable and exciting Danielle!

My husband and I had a wonderful time with Danielle as she took our wedding photos. She has a true passion & talent for seeing what you may not, or seeing things differently than a typical photographer. She really is so creative! And once you ...

graph your wedding since that day I photographed your brother's YEARS ago!!! It's because of people like YOU that I get to do this amazing job year after year!!!
THANK YOU for your kind words!!!
I have to pick just one favorite photo?? There were several to choose from as she had so many good shots! I can pick 3 of my favorites: There is a close up of my husband and me where we are about to kiss. There is just something about that phot...
o that I LOVE! My second favorite would be one of the 2 of us dancing, she truly captured the happiness of the day in that shot. And I love the shot of all of the guys showing off their funky socks that were a wedding day gift from my husband. There are more I could list, but I feel that these are top for sure!
Being friends for so long, I had to put Danielle in the position of being in my wedding and doing my photos. I just couldn't bring myself to choose between the two as they both were so important to me. She found a trusted fellow photog and friend to come help do photos where Danielle just couldn't do it being in the wedding party. I never once saw Megan in the background during the days' festivities. Her and Danielle were both so well at getting people to be where they needed to be with the posed shots and did such a great job getting those candid shots as well.
Being long time friends (we met in her first semester in college) she knew most of my family already. We all love her! And Megan just fit right in as well. It's like I had known her just as long as Danielle. So thankful for the memories they helped capture in our big day!

Victoria! I LOVED spending the day with you & your bridesmaids! Capturing all the special little moments throughout your day was such a joy! THANK YOU for trusting my vision & asking me to follow your love story!!
Wow! I absolutely LOVED all of our photos! Not just one but ALL of my photos from our wedding. If I had to chose and narrow it down my top favorites would be our family photo with our two little boys! The one of Josh and I in the winery basemen...
t with the huge wine barrels! And at dinner, Danielle took us out in front of the sunset over the lake and took these silhouette shots that were stunning!!! I LOVE THEM!! Our three year old son was staring at us on the dance floor as we did our first dance and did not move. He did not know to cry or scream or laugh he just stared as we danced our first dance together as husband and wife! Danielle captured that shot, and it's one of my favorites!
Danielle did not hesitate to help, she just helped where help was needed all at the perfect moments even at the ceremony and reception! She was on her toes all night! She is SUCH an amazing woman!
Danielle is just a genuine, kind person and you can tell by the way she helped and listened and was so caring about our photos. She was very polite and friendly to everyone! We had a huge bridal party and EVERYONE had nothing but nice words to say about Danielle! You can tell she deeply cares and LOVES what she dos!! I have been in 4 weddings in the past two years and a lot of my girls have been disappointed in their wedding photos. I was nervous I won't lie, BUT Danielle took our family photos and I have talked to Danielle until the wedding day telling her what I was looking for, she naturally just knew! She nailed every shot I asked for and was so creative with her ideas! Everyone was stunned and very impressed with her work! Danielle, I can't thank you enough for your hard work! You are an inspiration!!

that seems elegant and classic.Danielle did great working with us and all my crazy ideas!

Brianna! I loved your wedding! You guys were so relaxed and easy to work with! I will always remember the HELICOPTER!! I am so happy that you loved your photos!! THANK YOU!!!
My husband and I wanted a small intimate wedding and needed a photographer fast because we only had about 2 months to plan! I was so hopeful Danielle would be available and she was!!
God is so good! I fell in love with her work years ago when ...
I saw pictures she took of her brother, they were so AMAZING. Danielle was quick to respond and made me feel comfortable with our arrangements.
I expressed to her our feelings about not spending a lot of money on our wedding and explained to her what we wanted. It didn't matter to her how much time we hired her for and she gave great advice when trying to figure the time frame out! Danielle captured such precious moments from our wedding on July 28th, in what seemed, an effortlessly way!!!
She has such a natural talent!!! She knew what I wanted and blew my mind! Friends and family can't get over her amazing talent! She was so creative with many of our pictures and that's what I wanted! I cannot pick a favorite! I absolutely love them all. She made us feel so comfortable! My husband told her he hates doing pictures but she made him feel fabulous, we all laughed and had a great time during the pictures.
She is so upbeat and positive, how could you not feel comfortable!! I will always use barden photography and not only recommend her but give her talent to my friends with gift certificates!! Thank you for being you Danielle!

Danielle Barden has been there to capture all of the major events in my life. My senior pictures, "just because", engagement and most importantly my wedding day.
Honestly, I would never not be able to use her now. I unfortunately I moved abou...
t an hour away but still planning on coming to her when my husband and I become expecting parents.
Danielle was made to do this job. She is so easy to talk to and has one of the most creative set of eyes. Her mind is constantly thinking about the next perfect shot. She has always made me feel extremely relaxed and I have never once felt embarrassed to pose in a certain way in front of her. The pictures she has taken of me are so special to me and have always been so beautifully done.
She is extremely responsive to all communication efforts and is extremely efficient in getting back photos to you. Within 24 hours I had about 20-30 "sample" photos that have been edited and it only took another couple of days to get the thousands of other pictures she took to be edited and uploaded to Shutterfly.
This may sound arrogant, but honestly when I see photos of other weddings I am so happy I chose to use Barden Photography. Every photographer has their own style, but Bardens has always been my favorite. She is direct, she keeps the photos (and party) going, she isn't afraid to take risks, she is creative and I can promise you she will capture your special day in the most beautiful way.

Danielle knew me since I was a little girl with curls since we both attended the same church. We first reconnected when she did my senior pictures for me. When Danielle found out I was engaged, she messaged me letting me know that she was a w...
edding photographer so I should keep her in mind and if I needed any recommendations on venues to let her know. Little did she know, I already had my heart set on asking her to take my wedding photos. I’ve always admired Danielle’s style and her photographer’s eye. Danielle has a true passion for photography and her work shows just that. It’s also why I can’t pick just one favorite picture from the day.
Danielle made both my husband and I feel so comfortable on our wedding day. Often we didn’t even realize she was there. Others even commented, on how smoothly Danielle helped things to go and that she was a calming presence among the chaos of the day. Danielle not only helped with the pictures, she also knew how to put the boutonnieres on and helped with that little detail. Danielle ensured that I got all of the pictures that I had asked for prior to the wedding and even got more creative than I imagined with some of the ideas which was awesome!
Because I trusted Danielle, I was willing to get grass stains on my dress from sitting in a field and sprinkles on my dress (after she willingly agreed to get pictures of my husband and I getting ice cream after the reception). My dress can be cleaned and most importantly the memories that Danielle was able to capture will last a lifetime. They say your wedding day is a blur and you don’t remember much from the day and I’d agree. But looking through the memories Danielle captured, I’m able to relive the best day of my life.

otos also! She is punctual, reliable and one of the most genuinely kind people I have ever met. She makes us feel so comfortable and confident and it truly shows through in our photos. She listened to any requests we had for photos and I could not have asked for more beautiful wedding photos and she also captured some of the most wonderful candid photos at our reception. She has an eye for things that you would never think of and not a single moment was missed in her photographs. We highly recommend Barden Photography.
