s and family. He's really great at capturing the bright, happy feel of a wedding day. He also has a great personality and made everything easy and fun on our special day. Thanks Dan!

it) and loved that we got to see real emotion through our photos. He was very comfortable to be around and honestly had a lot of fun with him through out the whole day’s experience! I would highly recommend Dan to friends and shoot with him again for future photoshoots.

too! He did such a great job on our engagement photos and I know our wedding pictures will also be perfect. Dan was so easy to work with, flexible and professional. His website was easy to use and the automatic reminders for payment were perfect. He was very responsive to any request. When we learned that our wedding day was a 100% chance of rain, he was ready with suggestions and reassured me that we would get great pictures regardless of the weather. I would highly recommend Dan for engagement/wedding photos!

nner, but don't you worry, he's got the shoot list in his pocket to make sure all your wishes come true! During the reception, he blended in so well, he was almost invisible, yet somehow, was always there when I needed him to capture a moment. Thank you, Dan!!

ost important moments of both our weddings. Dan was even able to catch my generally stoic Dad with a few candid smiles. I would fully recommend Dan for all events!

)!! He was so easy to work with and super flexible when needed. Genuinely a pleasure to have had him be a part of our special day. Everyone hire him right now if you are in need of a photographer for any life event!!

ish forever. For our engagement session, he found a great secluded spot near Cannon Beach that allowed us privacy with a beautiful setting. For our wedding, he took a TON of photos and provided them in a variety of formats for us - digital download, flash drive, and a beautiful printed hardbound album. His style is easygoing and fun and he helped us to get comfortable in front of the camera. Thank you, Dan!

ast for our engagement shoot and in the forest near Vernonia for the wedding. His professionalism is second to none as the quality of his photos were stunning, despite he and his partner taking photos for five straight hours on the hottest June weekend in Oregon's history! With temperatures topping 115 degrees, not once did they fail to capture each and every moment with smiles and sunblock on their faces. The quality of photos will certainly keep us remembering our amazing wedding day for years to come and we recommend their business to anyone looking for an outstanding photographer!

made sure to get pictures of everyone. He also offered ideals and feedback on what would look best for photos. I am so glad we hired him for our wedding day, I am convinced no one would have done a better job.

olutely no regrets. From start to finish Dan has been easy to communicate with, clear about the plan, flexible with the obstacles COVID brought to the wedding planning process, professional and also a lot of fun to interact with. He is personable and skilled without a doubt. All of our guests loved him and noticed that he was "everywhere" during our wedding to capture the special moments. I love that he does a mixture of documentary style and posed photos. My husband and I are so happy with the collection of photos he gave us and I think you will be too!

creative eye and was able to direct us perfectly for both our pre- and day-of wedding photos, capturing the perfect blend of candid and posed shots. Plus, Dan is genuinely a kind and good person. He was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout the entire process and provided us with tons of great recommendations on locations, etc. We are over the moon happy with our final photographs and look forward to requesting his services in the future.

ations. He arrived early, and really went above and beyond to make sure we got all the photos we asked for, and more! The photos we received from him are truly beautiful and timeless. We will definitely be using him for future occasions.

worked for us. Months later we are looking back at our pictures and are in complete awe at how amazing all of our pictures turned out. We cannot thank him enough for capturing all the special moments of our wedding day! We would highly recommend Dan for your wedding photographer.

wedding photos - they are just breathtaking and truly capture the emotions of our special day. It was so easy to communicate with Dan - he helped to ease our pre-wedding nerves by regularly checking in and helping to define our timeline. When we realized that our final "exit" of the evening was an hour after he was scheduled to leave, he was willing to work with us to make sure he captured all of our important moments. On our wedding day, Dan was an extremely calming and grounding presence. He never missed a moment, and made everyone feel comfortable! Whenever I was hugging a friend or family member at the reception, I didn't even have to worry - Dan was there to capture it. He is extremely professional and passionate about his job, which clearly shows in the quality of his work. I can't thank Dan enough for giving us the gift of these beautiful memories!!

was so easy with Dan. The pictures came out absolutely amazing and he didn’t miss anything! We would recommended Dan to anyone who doesn’t want to break the bank and get a fantastic photographer!

forgot to put them in a set of lights!). When we came down to a time crunch, he adjusted thoughtfully. We've had several family members and friends comment on how great of a person was, being friendly and ready any shot he could without being overly intrusive. We would love to rehire Dan in any future photo sessions we have and highly recommend him!

looking at pictures with my husband, we couldn't believe the different angles he captured from the ceremony - we don't recall ever noticing where he was during this time but he got every imaginable perspective. It was so much fun for us to relive our wedding day through these different perspectives as we went through our pictures. Dan captured the joy and excitement of the day through the beauty of his pictures and his ability to capture genuine emotion. I don't know how we will ever pick which ones to hang up because I love them all so much. If you are looking at Dan for photos, don't hesitate - reach out and talk to him. It is one of the best decisions I made for the wedding.

r any occasion.

nd checking out his website, and received a response right away (a rarity for us). Not only was he enthusiastic about our destination, he was affordable AND has a beautiful portfolio...we were excited. Day of the wedding Dan showed up early and ready to work, we relied heavily on him for direction and are so happy with the end result! I cannot tell you how beautiful our pictures turned out, he is a wizard with color, our pictures are so vibrant and lovely! Reviews were important to me when planning our wedding, I would absolutely recommend Dan, you can't go wrong!

the shot that brings out the emotion of that day. We couldn’t have been happier with our photos and our experience with Dan.

ur requests, was quick to respond to any questions that we had, and captured some stunning shots of our ceremony and reception. When a mini-crisis ensued at our ceremony (the photo booth did not work), Dan stepped up and grabbed some amazing shots of the group to make up for the issue. Dan’s photography style is crisp, clean, and candid. We are beyond grateful for Dan’s ability to capture beautiful pictures and memories that will last us a lifetime.

ent session fun, and he was able to capture some really great shots (even though my husband and I felt a little awkward at first). As our wedding approached, Dan reached out and requested day-of details. We found this to be extremely helpful, as it helped us develop a ceremony schedule. Our wedding day was stress-free, and we have Dan and the other fabulous vendors we worked with to thank for that. We loved our engagement photos and have viewed our wedding sneak-peak photos. Booking with Dan was a great investment, and we highly recommend Dan Rice Photography for your special day!

a few and I already would be happy even if I didn’t get any more.

out so great! When it came to our wedding photos, Dan was very involved and attentive to capturing all the photos that we wanted. Our photos turned out so beautiful and we had such an amazing experience working with him. We would highly recommend him to any couple looking for a photographer for their wedding. Thanks Dan!

being fun and really easy to work with. He easily managed our big families as well, which was great! Highly recommend! Thanks Dan!

at to work with. He wanted to make sure we got every shot we wanted. Hiring Dan was the best decision we made. Thank again Dan!

h candid and posed pictures. Dan is such a kind person and so accommodating...do not hesitate to book Dan for any occasion you want to remember.

nd easy to communicate with. We highly recommend Dan and his team.

to detail, and made wedding photography look effortless. I would recommend Dan for anyone's wedding, great person to work with!

tos but Dan made us look good!

y easy decision, looking through his portfolio it’s plain to see that his pictures are phenomenal. We were having a geek-themed wedding and as we browsed through his photos, we noticed he had photographed a few similar weddings with great success. As most people realize we would be relying on the photos to help relive the memories in the years after the wedding, so we really wanted the photographer to capture as much of the wedding as they could, and if we could offer one piece of advice to budget minded engaged couples, don’t skimp on the photographer. As Dan proved they’re well worth their price tag, Dan met our expectations on the day of the wedding and then far exceeded them with the finished product. He was prompt and energetic, ready to work from the second he walked in the door. He was creative with his suggestions, directed us on positioning and organization, knew when to pull back if needed, and helped keep us on schedule throughout the day. He cataloged and captured our entire day in a way that we never could, and the photos turned out beautifully. His ability to capture candid moments as well as setting up posed shots and having them look natural is uncanny, and the coloring pops out of the photo. Looking back on the experience we feel lucky to have found a photographer that went so far above our expectations in terms of quality of experience and results, fantastic job Dan.

in with our guests so well we often didn't even notice there was a photographer around. Months later I'm still hearing from my guests how much they liked Dan. I highly recommend choosing him as a photographer, you will not regret it!

was by far the best! Both my fiance and I agreed when we first saw Dan's booth, his photos were unlike all the others. Vibrant colors, beautiful landscapes, perfect framing - his work totally stood out above the rest. While talking to him Dan was incredibly friendly, and he even knew a trick for taking photos of dogs (instead of saying their name, make a weird sound)! Shortly after the Bridal Bazaar we set up a meeting at Starbucks. He answered all of our questions and showed us example wedding albums. Bonus for us: He's also read the Lord of the Rings books, which was perfect for our Middle Earth wedding! Engagement Photos = Dan recommended a location that fit our checklist - we scouted it out and loved it. He was very easy to work with during the shoot. His positioning/posing instructions were easy to follow, which was very important because we know nothing! We brought along our dog (and one of my bridesmaids to help with the dog) and Dan knew exactly what to do to get great photos with our pupper. Unfortunately we got kicked out of the park because it was closing sooner than expected; I wish the shoot could've gone on longer but Dan was still able to get amazing photos. Wedding Day = Dan hadn't been to the venue before so he arrived early to scout it out. Dan and his second shooter were able to capture a variety of photos, all of them beautiful. Portraits, details, action shots, guests' happy faces, even food photos - so many gorgeous photos to choose from. There are some split-second shots that I am amazed he was able to capture AND they came out beautiful! Dan is very responsive via email and super easy to communicate with! He delivered everything on time (wedding photos took about 7.5 weeks). And his prices are incredibly reasonable!

, being on time, just overall amazing! Thanks Dan for capturing the greatest day ever!

He is a true professional and so much fun! We couldn't be happier!
