Dani Padgett Weddings

resources along the way, and really understood our vision for the wedding. Dani shared a sneak peek of a few photos a couple days after the wedding to hold is over and we got our photos back about 3 weeks after the wedding. We are over the moon with the photos and the few guests I’ve passed them along to are raving about them. On top of it all, Dani and Maverick are just stand out people with wonderful warmth and character that make standing in front of their cameras fun and enjoyable! I found myself just chatting up Maverick mid-wedding instead of spending time with some guests—yes they’re that cool! When the time comes, I’ll definitely be working with them again!

y talented - as is her second shooter, Maverick! Also, even though my husband and I are not big fans of getting our photo taken, it was actually SO MUCH fun to take photos at our wedding, thanks to Dani. She and Maverick helped us feel relaxed and at ease. We just got a sneak peek of our photos and I just can't stop looking at them. Already, they capture the joy of that day so beautifully. She has a great eye for meaningful details and for joyful, authentic moments.

oments off all of our family and friends. I am usually incredibly awkward in front of the camera, but Dani and her assistant made me and everyone else feel so comfortable, she was able to capture everyone’s best (not to mention photogenic) selves. I am so grateful to her for her professionalism, her charm, and her amazing attitude. She really cared about getting the shots we needed for our big day, and surpassed my expectations entirely.

love of her work. Dani's authenticity, easy going nature, and knack for being a fly on the wall makes her the ideal photographer to trust with documenting such a special day. We had a pretty untraditional wedding, and Dani was more than capable to roll with the punches of the day, taking advantage of every bit of scenery our location provided. With help from her incredible husband, Maverick, Dani was able to work well within our limited timeframe and made the whole process so much fun and full of love. A lot of people before my wedding advised me to slow down, to notice and enjoy every minute. Thanks to Dani, I have photos of all those little moments I can enjoy for a lifetime.

tes through her work. Each shot has a purpose; light and shadow, movement and composition- each used as a tool to evoke memory of time and place. The work she produced for us far surpassed anything we could have hoped for. We highly recommend working with Dani as your wedding photographer.

he personalities and mood of everyone there. I'm not usually very comfortable taking pictures, so I thought I would feel the same taking them for the wedding and engagement shoot, but I actually ended up having tons of fun. Dani has such an easygoing personality that put both of us at ease. All their photos spectacularly captured the happiness and fun of the day.

apher to capture our special day. She went above and beyond by even visiting the location at the correct time of day to make sure they were prepared for the lighting, angles and details for the day of. Dani did such a good job at being sweet, yet direct with our wedding party. I was worried that with all the personalities and the fun of the day things could get out of hand and drag on longer than we wanted, but each time we all started drifting, one of the team would pull us all back in and refocus us so we could nail the shot and move on. My husband and I really wanted to capture the day, but our main goal was to enjoy the day. Dani understood this and really helped make it possible. We have so many AMAZING photos, and they were able to make it happen in the time frame we allotted. Before we knew it we were in the Barn partying with our guest (which is all we wanted to do!!) I get nervous when cameras are out, I know I have a tendency to tighten up and look very stiff, she picked up on this and were so sweet, reminding me to relax. I AM SO HAPPY she was in tune with my body language, had she not been I would have ended up with many images of me looking stressed and stiff. That to me was just another moment where I was so thankful that I had picked the right photographers for us. I would choose Dani all over again if I had the opportunity. I can't thank her enough for bringing our wedding to life through the photos they took. Your wedding day memories will stay with you regardless, its truly a magical day, but to have those memories in photos is so special. Its a way to share the memories you lived forever. Thank you Dani for doing that for us <3 -Diana & Miles Smith

meeting. She made us feel completely comfortable with her by the end of our engagement shoot. Then on our wedding day it was like she was supposed to be there all along. She captures the soul of the event she photographs perfectly. And Maverick is a pretty go bouquet getter ;) I can’t wait to use her again for the next big moment in my families life.

way that I’ve only dreamed of. She made me feel confident and sure of myself while in front of the camera (which is not common). Her point of view is creative and curious and I’m so grateful to have images captured with her magic eye
