My approach to Wedding Photography:
Be the calm in the storm 🙏🏻 Wedding days are full of excitement, emotion, and dare I say – chaos (lol) And as wedding photographers... yes, we’re there to take gorgeous photos but our jobs are really SO much more than that.
Being a wedding photographer is all about SHOWING UP for your clients in big ways that don’t always involve a camera – fixing boutonnières, fluffing dresses, playing meteorologist in the event of rain, de-stressing aunt Karen whose freaking out about table signage (lol), or dabbing away tears to save that gorgeous face of makeup.
Honestly, over the years I've learned to approach the day as a balancing act between being proactive and stepping back. It's knowing when to step in and initiate moments to their full potential such as directing poses that make you look hella good, but also stepping back for the quiet and introspective moments when sweet granny kisses you on the cheek.
It's letting the natural, candid moments flow, and when it's time for portraits, you have an expert to direct you, guide you, help you walk with confidence (while holding your gorgeous dress 😂), and make you feel like a million bucks.
So if you're looking for a photographer to show up and pour 110% into you and your wedding day, to capture all these meaningful and emotional moments, to be more than just your photographer but truly a friend... then look no further cuz I'm your girl 😜🙆

Oh my goodness!!! Where do I even begin? Danielle exceeded every expectation that we had for our wedding photographer! When we started wedding planning, picking the right photographer was at the top of our list and we couldn’t be more grateful to stumble across Danielle’s instagram! She is the most energetic, reliable, sweet, fun, and down to earth photographer! She took our vision and rolled with it! I love that each couple she photographs, she captures their love for each other so perfectly. Every single couple is different and I love that she tailors her pictures to match the couples vibe. With the perfect amount of candids and posed pictures, we seriously loved every single one of our engagement/wedding pictures! So many people have commented that our wedding photos just turned out stunning and we couldn’t thank Danielle more! She is seriously the best and we can’t wait to use her for all of our big future events! I promise you will not be disappointed if you pick her!

Run and hire Danielle! Seriously. I can't recommend her enough! From the start to the end of our wedding, she was on top of everything. She took amazing photos and knew just where to be to catch all the big moments. Everyone felt so comfortable with her around, which really shows in the pictures—everyone looks so natural and happy!
Danielle also helped out beyond just taking photos. She jumped if things needed fixing, like straightening out table settings or giving us quick tips on where to stand during our vows for the best shots, which really made the day go smoothly. We couldn't have asked for a better photographer!

I got married out of state and decided to hire Danielle based on some great reviews. I'm so glad I did! She was incredibly professional and great at coordinating with us closely to capture the event despite the chaos of a wedding day. Her presence added a warm and engaging touch to the gathering, making everyone feel at ease.
The photos turned out spectacularly! Danielle is an artist! The candid shots were my favorite, they really captured the essence of our family's joy. The quick turnaround on receiving the photos was also impressive, allowing us to relive those wonderful moments soon after.

Danielle did an incredible job at our wedding! She was super friendly, on time, and really good at taking pictures without getting in the way. The photos turned out beautiful - they caught all the big moments and the little ones that were special to us. We got our pictures quickly and loved going through them. If you need a wedding photographer, I definitely recommend Danielle to anyone getting married!!

We couldn't have asked for a better photographer to capture the most important day of our lives. From the moment we first met Danielle, we were impressed by her professionalism, creativity, and warm personality.
On our wedding day, she went above and beyond to make sure every special moment was documented beautifully. Her ability to make us feel at ease and her talent for capturing candid emotions truly shone through in every single shot.
The photos exceeded all our expectations; they are stunning, timeless, and filled with genuine emotion. The attention to detail, the perfect lighting, and the prompting she provided made every photo a masterpiece. Danielle managed to capture the love, joy, and laughter of the day in a way that feels so authentic and magical.
Not only was she incredible during the wedding, but her communication before and after the event was seamless. She was speedy to respond to all the questions I had throughout the process, and really made me feel valued.
We’ve had so many friends and family comment on how gorgeous the photos are, and we know we’ll treasure these memories forever. We are so grateful to have had Danielle be part of our big day. Highly, highly recommend!

We absolutely loved Danielle! She is amazing at what she does. She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. We received our sneak peek with over 40 pictures within two days of our wedding. We cannot wait to see all of the pictures from our big day! My husband said we will never be using another photographer!

We did the “associate package” for our wedding in October, meaning Danielle edited the photos but she had one of her fellow photographers shoot the wedding, Erika Rene. We could not have had a better experience. Erika was kind, calm, collected, fun, bubbly, and everything we wanted for a wedding photographer. And her pictures are STUNNING!!! We got so many amazing shots it’s hard to decide what to put in an album! The editing was beyond beautiful on our photos too. Truly could not have asked for a better experience all around!

Danielle is truly a professional and is amazing in so many ways! She will make your day incredibly memorable by not only the most perfect photos she captures, but also how she will make you feel. Her calmness, confidence, and genuine passion to help you have the best day and overcome any obstacle you may face is why she’s the best. She traveled out for the country for our special day, and could not have imagined anyone else with us! We love you, Danielle, and are forever thankful for you!!

When you are planning a wedding, you place so much trust in your photographer to capture one of the happiest moments of your life and that can be so overwhelming. That was the case for me when I was planning my wedding, because I wanted everything to be perfect. Danielle is someone who you can trust to make your special day even more special, and her photos will bring you right back to the happiest day of your life. She not only is your photographer, but she is in your corner every step of the way and definitely on your wedding day to get that photo that you want. I couldn't be happier that I had her on my team.

Danielle is truly one of a kind! She was easy to communicate with, took care in answering any questions we had along the way, and was fun to work with. Our engagement and wedding photos are absolutely stunning! Danielle paid great attention to detail in capturing so many aspects of our day from getting ready, the ceremony, and the reception to the little moments in between. She was conscious of our schedule and helped the day run so smoothly. The many, many compliments on our engagement and wedding photos from our family, friends, and wedding party are a further testament to Danielle's professionalism, skill, and creative eye. I can't recommend her enough!

Danielle is truly the best! She is so passionate about her work. From the moment we met Danielle at our engagement session, she made us feel so comfortable and we had so much fun with her. Our family and bridal party were raving about how great she was to work with the day of the wedding. Our engagement and wedding photos were absolutely stunning. Thank you Danielle for giving us memories that we will cherish forever!

Danielle is absolutely INCREDIBLE!!! She was so communicative during our year-long engagement, and sent our wedding day timeline months in advance so that we could start coordinating our day with other vendors. That organization and efficiency carried over to our wedding day, where she made the day run so smoothly from start to finish! She made us feel so special during our engagement shoot and the wedding day, and really captured our personalities in the photos, which shows how truly skilled she is. Her turnaround time was SO quick, and OH MY GOD!! The photos truly are works of art! I never imagined how hard it would be to choose my favorite photos, because I love every single one! It really shows how much passion Danielle has for her work. You will never regret choosing Danielle as your wedding photographer!

Danielle is a rock star. We used her for our engagement photos and we were impressed immediately with her attention to detail and organization. Come wedding day, that organization and efficiency made family photos a breeze. She listened to us and what we wanted out of our day, and the sneak peaks reflect that 100%. She was timely and responsive, which is always a breath of fresh air in wedding planning. She knows how to handle a wedding day from start to finish, and she handled any hiccups with grace. She is kind and calm the entire day, even with dozens of people around her. She also ensured our golden girl Penny looked perfect in her portraits ;) We can't wait to see our full gallery, but we already know it'll be perfect because the sneak peaks reflect exactly how we remember our day.

I can’t not recommend Danielle enough! She is so kind and professional and incredibly talented! She made the planning process easy and stress-free, which we are so grateful for. Danielle is so great about making sure all the little details are just right and it shows in her work. A major plus is her love for dogs (she made our little Ernie boy feel so loved every shoot :)) Our engagement and wedding photos are stunning! She truly made our wedding the most magical day ever :)

Danielle absolutely blew it out of the park for our wedding day. We both don’t like having our photos taken but she made our day relaxing and fun! She was great at capturing our moments with our Pup, family, and bridal party. Danielle was easy to work with. We wished we lived closer, because we would hire her for more shoots!

My husband and I sat down after we got engaged and prioritized all the wedding vendors we would book. The photographer was in the top 3 because that is the person we were trusting to take photos we would look back on the rest of our lives. Once we booked Danielle we knew we made the right choice.
Danielle was hands down one of THE BEST vendors we booked for our wedding! Her photos speak for themselves, but everything behind the photos - her professionalism, her enthusiasm, her communication, her passion for her profession - is all truly priceless and hard to find. From the first moment I reached out to Danielle she was quick to respond with her availability. Then when it came time for our engagement photos, she made it all feel so natural and fun! She literally sent us sneak peeks a few days later!
As we got closer to our wedding. Danielle was quick to respond with any questions or requests I had. I decided last minute to add-on a second photographer to our package, and she found one so quickly! She even went out to our venue (Innsbrook) beforehand and drove around to find the perfect spots for our pictures! Then when the wedding day came, she was extremely organized and was again so fun to work with!
We cannot recommend Danielle enough for your big day!!

We were SO LUCKY to have found Danielle! Let me just say that she is more than just a photographer. From preparing a preliminary itinerary for us, to sending us a photographer questionnaire and, the day of the wedding, jumping right in and taking lead, Danielle is no amateur and definitely the one you want for your wedding day!! She helped us think about things that had never crossed our mind. She also took so much weight off of us and really helped the evening stay on track, especially because we didn't have a wedding planner. Danielle also sprinkled in "quiet times" for my husband and I to be able to sit and embrace the moment with each other. It was so special and one of the most memorable things from our wedding. Danielle takes it to the next level and we couldn't have been more grateful.
Lastly, the photos.... HOLY SMOKES are they GORGEOUS!!! We removed a lot of photo opportunities from our wedding itinerary because we had other priorities for the evening, but Danielle still somehow found a way to squeeze special ones in without impacting anything. She's amazing and the photos exceeded our expectations. If I could give more than 5 stars for her work, I would! You will not be disappointed with Danielle!

Danielle was one of the best choices we made for the wedding! She is SO talented. My husband and I were very nervous for our engagement photo session, but she made it a breeze! Her pose ideas are natural and enjoyable. We left feeling so excited to have her as our wedding photographer. On the wedding day, she was a dream to work with. We were running late at one point because I forgot something and she did not panic or show any sort of negative emotions. This really helped my stress levels. We just got our pictures back and we are so happy with them! The editing....just wow! She caught these moments that day that I completely forgot about! To this day, my bridesmaids still tell me how much they loved her energy! She is organized, positive and so dang talented! 10000000% book her for your big day!

Truly the best photographer you could ask for on your special day. From her attention to detail, to showing up extra early to get all the amazing pre-ceremony photos, to her being the most positive and kind soul on the best day of my life, I could not recommend her more! It was 110 degrees outside and we were all drenched in sweat.. somehow, she managed to make all of our photos look perfect, despite how hot it was! I was truly amazed and cried when I saw the final edits. She is punctual, timely, organized as ever, and makes your big day as stress-free as possibly! You need Danielle as your wedding and engagement photographer!

Danielle photographed both our engagement and wedding photos - both which turned out absolutely exquisite and beautiful - everything we hoped for.
However, after the wedding we were extremely let down and disappointed in her communication and empty promises as to when we would finally receive our photos. A week after my wedding, where she shot for another wedding and only two days later, that couple received 43 public “sneak peaks”(Her close friend). When I commented how I couldn’t lie I was jealous, she quickly messaged me to let me know that couples who pay the highest package receive sneak peaks. I decided to go back to the packages offered to me and not one of them said anything about a sneak peak. I brushed it off and tried to not be frustrated that clearly it was just because it was for her friend. She then gave me a few photos a couple weeks later.
Fast forward to 7 weeks post event (my wedding was June 18th), I had not heard from Danielle. According to the contract we had signed, my husband and I were to receive our photos 6 weeks post event. I decided to reach out ask about it because I saw she was delivering other galleries and promoting her business regularly, but she never reached out to inform me when we would be getting ours, especially since she was late at that point. Her response was that she was running behind 1-2 weeks per couple and I would receive mine “no later than August 26” and that she was going on vacation the week before that. This was not 1-2 weeks late for me, it was actually 4 weeks.
August 26th came around and she posted that her task for the day was to deliver a branding shoot she had done. I immediately messaged her asking where my photos were/when to expect them since. She sent me many voice messages on Instagram apologizing, telling me I was her top priority and she would have them to me the next week and that she “swore on her grave” by it. A week went by and I never got my photos. She also once again never reached out to me to let me know. I at least expected due diligence when it came to communicating late timelines and false expectations of when the photos would be received. Instead I was made to be the one to continually reach out asking, feeling like a bother, when she should have taken the first step from day one, "your pictures won't be 6 weeks". Also, before signing a contract, a family friend had reached out to my mom to warn us of her late timelines and to consider looking elsewhere. I figured since it was a written contract, so, I shouldn't have to worry. I would follow my part and she would follow hers. I understand she wanted to make sure the photos were perfect (which they were!!), but she could have reached out to me and not continuously left me hanging.
As a client, I stuck to my end of the contract and paid her by the dates I agreed too, but clearly it seems as though the contract was only for her. I truly believe I deserve to get refunded in some way for her lack of communication and for breaking her end of the contract - as it is not my fault she over booked herself and did not organize her time efficiently. It’s definitely frustrating to see her constantly promoting herself for new clients, but did not take time to work on the projects for clients she already signed for.
A little over 12 weeks later, I did finally get my photos. They were beautiful and everything we had pictured in our minds. I just wish our post wedding experience was more positive to reflect on.

Oh my goodness, I followed Danielle for a while, and I’ve always knew I wanted to book her for our wedding. I was so happy she was available on our date. She really was amazing to work with. I’m so excited to see the rest of our photos. They’ll be all over our house lol. Our grandparents last minute weren’t able to make it and I’m so excited to show them the pictures. It’ll be so fun one day getting to show them to our future kids. Thank you so much for making our day so incredible! If you’re looking for a light & airy photographer in the stl area, Danielle is ya girl!

Where do I even begin to describe my sincere gratitude for Danielle? When I first started looking into a photographer last year I immediately fell in love with Danielle’s work and had to book her for my wedding. She not only checks all the boxes of a professional (punctual, organized, detailed, responsive) but she is truly passionate about what she does and it shows! Both our engagement shoot and wedding day were some of the hottest days of the year and you would never know from our photos. She gives the best advice to make your photos stunning, she’s your favorite hype girl, she’s patient (and adjusts) when the schedule gets off track, and she’s just a truly calming presence on a fairly chaotic day. Danielle, you are truly amazing and I’ll forever be fan-girling over you and your beautiful photos! Thank you for make my wedding day so enjoyable!!

(Even to a husband who is easily annoyed with taking a lot of photos lol😅) She tackled the unfortunate event of rain during wedding day flawlessly! We would recommend booking Danielle in a heartbeat!
Thank you so much for capturing our special day so perfectly!💕

There's absolutely nothing not to love about Danielle and her photography. From the moment we booked Danielle as our wedding photographer, she was supportive and responsive. As someone who isn't always comfortable or happy with photos of myself with a husband who grumbles about taking photos, I can say Danielle simply blew us away on wedding day. She gave us so much confidence with her direction and captured how happy and glow-y we were on our day. We are just blown away by the quality of the pictures and all of the moments she captured. She transforms herself into one of your best friends on wedding day and I truly cannot sing her praises enough. We cannot more highly recommend Danielle Ambry Photography!

Danielle captured our day so beautifully!!Waiting to see the photos was so hard, but SO worth the wait! Picking out which photos to print is going to be difficult since they’re all so incredibly beautiful. I seriously can’t stop looking at them!
Danielle is so kind and personable. She’s so easy to talk to and you can really tell she loves what she does. My wedding party kept telling me how great of a job she was doing all day!
It rained heavily right before my ceremony, but Danielle kept us all calm and we were able to get all the shots we wanted after it stopped. Highly recommend booking Danielle to capture your day!

Lauren and I are simply stunned and nothing less than blown away with Danielle! She made our wedding day so much fun and captured not just every moment, but every precious memory we will hold dear to us for the rest of our lives. From the detail shots of us getting ready, to even the shots of us with our wedding party where we laughed so hard we were in tears, she was there every step of the way.
Fast forward to the day we got our gallery, going through every picture, there was not a single shot we did not love. Every shot had meaning in it and brought back a glimpse of that day we will never forget. We laughed, we cried, and we agreed that having Danielle capture our wedding was one of the best we could have made. We more than recommend her to be part of anyone’s wedding day.
Danielle, we cannot thank you enough for everything and cannot tell you how much we are in love with not only all the pictures but all the hard work you put into them all. We will never forget a single detail of our wedding thanks to you!!

Danielle is great and has excellent photography skills. She was very responsive to our emails and questions easing up to the day of wedding. On the wedding day in addition to being the amazing photographer, she was the veil adjuster, the hype woman and an absolute delight to work with. I am so glad that we hired her to capture our special day. Would definitely recommend her.

Don't walk... RUN to hire Danielle! Friends and family still reach out talking about how incredible Danielle is and it certainly shows in her photos! My husband and I are both the type that do not generally enjoy getting our photos taken, but Danielle made it incredibly fun, easy, and organized. It really shows in our photos - I nearly tear up looking at them because I didn't think anyone could capture how truly happy we were that day, but she managed to! She is incredibly professional and knows how to "take charge" to keep things running smoothly, but does it in a way where you feel like she's honestly part of the group! All of my married friends say they wish they could go back in time and hire her for their weddings now that they've seen her in actions and the photos she produces. I found her services incredibly reasonably priced considering the extremely high quality she provides. If you are looking for a way to make your wedding go as smoothly as possible, and ending up with gorgeous pictures to take away from it, then do not hesitate in hiring Danielle. Best decision I made!

After meeting Danielle and working with her on our wedding day, I can say I am simply obsessed! She is the sweetest, cutest, friendliest….and so professional! You can tell she loves her career and takes great pride in her work. Having your pictures taken can be a daunting task but Danielle made it so fun for my husband, myself and the wedding party. She is super creative and artistic- some of the sneak peaks she has sent have blown us away. She is also very affordable too. Danielle is your girl if you are in need of a wedding photographer…or any photographer for that matter!!! Love you Danielle and we cannot thank you enough!!

Danielle went above and beyond to ensure I was happy with my gallery. She worked with me to adhere to specific requests I had about little things that may have seemed small, but meant so much to me. I have a gorgeous gallery full of color and timeless black and whites. Even after she sent me my full gallery, she took the time to go through it with me to perfect little details, editing out water fountains and unnecessary things in the background to capture the most beautiful moments of the day. I am excitedly reliving my wedding day scrolling through and picking some favorites (extremely difficult) to hang on the walls of my husband and my new home. The composition is lovely and she captured some beautifully authentic and candid moments and the radiating joy I remember vividly. Thankyou Danielle :)

A huge shout out to Danielle Ambry Photography. From our engagement photos to the wedding— just wow! Her bubbly personality makes you feel so comfortable not only when you first meet her, but when you are in front of the camera as well! She did an absolute amazing job capturing our super energetic dog along with us during our engagement shoot! She has an eye for tiny details and comes up with creative ideas on the spot for a great photo opportunity. You can feel her passion behind the camera and it also shows in her work! I would highly recommend Danielle as a photographer for your wedding! After seeing the sneak peeks, each one took us back to reliving our wedding day and for that we can’t thank you enough! Thank you so much for everything, again!

Do yourself a quick favor and just book Danielle right now. Seriously. I mean it. I don't even know if I have the words to describe how amazing she is. From the moment we met her at our engagement session, we knew she was the perfect fit for our big day. It felt like we had known her for years and there was no other person we trusted more to capture the love on our wedding day than her. She gave us direction but also allowed us to just be us and enjoy every part of our day. She took the time to fix my hair, fluff my veil, even fix the beads on my dress that were flying all over the place as I walked. We received sneak peeks the day after our wedding (yes, you read that right...DAY AFTER) which made almost everyone in our family cry with how beautiful they were. We are beyond blessed that we got to work with Danielle and look forward to many many many more photo sessions with her.

Where do I even begin?! Pictures are a huge part of any wedding day, and who better to be by your side than Danielle. I had never met Danielle before my wedding day, but I felt like I’d known her for years! She is calm, cool, and collected amid all the chaos. She makes you feel so comfortable and confident. She gives you space to live in the moment with your partner but helps guide you when you need it. She is so organized and is amazing at capturing all the best shots in the least amount of time, so that you can actually enjoy your wedding! Also, she had already shared beautifully edited sneak peek photos before we woke up the next morning (how?! when?!) - amazing! I could go on and on; Danielle is all you could ever want in a wedding photographer.

I cannot rave enough about how great Danielle was as our wedding photographer! She made our day run so smoothly and really helped us enjoy our day and have fun with it. From the beginning she was great to work with; she was quick to respond, she let us take a package and customize it to fit our wedding day needs, and she created a timeline that pretty much ran our entire day. Which is a huge help!! When she says she will be your hype girl, she WILL BE your hype girl!! She made me feel so confident with my boudoir pictures and they turned out better than I could have ever imagined!! On our wedding day she had all our family and party laughing and smiling and having a great time taking pictures. She made sure we got every group picture we wanted and didn’t miss a single detail of our day! Our vendor made it a point to reach out to us and tell us how much they loved her and how great she was, I think that speaks volumes considering it was the first time she had ever been there. You can tell she loves that she does, and her love shows through her work. Our family and friends cannot stop talking about how great our pictures turned out and neither can we! We cannot thank her enough for her work and all her help on our big day! Thank you Danielle!

Danielle is absolutely incredible. Our day would not have run as smoothly as it did without her. She is your hype girl and will make you laugh which makes all smiles and laughs so genuine. She is so easy to work with and makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera even if you normally aren’t. She brings your visions to life and captures exactly what you have envisioned your wedding day would be since you began planning. You will not go wrong choosing her. We absolutely love her and will continuously recommend her to anyone and everyone.

My husband and I used Danielle as our wedding photographer in November. We met Danielle for a couples photo shoot and I absolutely adored her. She made the session so much fun and after a while we were just laughing and having a good time and it really shows in the photos. After we got engaged we knew we wanted her to capture our big day and be a part of the process. She was helpful every step of the way! The day of the wedding was overwhelming for me as it always is for brides. But let me tell you, having a photographer that knows what she’s doing will make the day flow so much easier!! This girl knows exactly how to plan things in perfect timing, remains calm during the chaos and is even a shoulder to lean on when you’re feeling overwhelmed. She is fun, professional and very talented. Our photos were so beautiful that we were featured on multiple social media platforms (yes, they had our approval) we were so honored and I got so many compliments on the photos! This is the girl you want to capture the happiest and best day of your life right here! Thank you, Danielle!! I hope you know how incredible you are!

Danielle went over and above for the wedding! She was very easy to talk to and communicate with.
What separates her from the rest we looked at was her style, professionalism, and caring about us throughout the day keeping us on time and getting creative many different poses for a memory of a lifetime! Thank you again!

My husband and I found Danielle on Instagram before we were engaged, but we were instantly in AWE of her work. She worked closely with us to figure out the best place/time for our engagement session and made us feel SO comfortable, even though being in front of the camera is way out of my husband's comfort zone. Once our wedding day came, she helped make everything run so smoothly and captured every sweet moment. She made us have fun with our photos, played off of our goofy moments, and captured all of the small details that mean so much to us. She also made such an impact on our friends and family. She's so fun, outgoing, and genuine that our bridal party and family members are asking for her contact information for their future photography needs! I cannot recommend her enough; she is outstanding, has fun with her work (and it definitely shows), and made my husband and I feel so incredibly special throughout our engagement session and entire wedding day. We can't wait to see our wedding photos/album; we already know they'll be everything we wanted and more because we had Danielle as our photographer!

Oh sweet Danielle! I could write a book on how wonderful this lady is! She truly listened to my fiancé and I. She caught onto our vibe and nailed our engagement pics! For the wedding she unfortunately came up sick and had to call in backup. Her backup girl was amazing and Danielle continuously checked in and followed up on everything. The photos Danielle edited for us are to die for! I highly recommend Danielle for any kind of photography that you are needing!

Danielle is the most dedicated, hardworking and skilled photographer I have ever met. I have had the honor of having Danielle photograph the most important moments of my life. She was there to capture my surprise engagement and I will forever be grateful to have those photos. After that I couldn’t hire her fast enough to photograph our wedding! She truly is the best in the biz. She finds out exactly what your vision is and makes it happen, no matter what lengths she has to go to for her brides. She always has a smile on her face and a positive attitude. My wedding photos are a dream and I could not be happier!! She captured the most amazing moments that me and my husband will be able to look back on for years to come. They say every picture tells a story and Danielle captured our love story perfectly.

Danielle is experienced, professional and all out amazing while capturing the moments of the big day. She has creative ideas and we couldn't be happier with our daughter's wedding photos and experience with Danielle. She knew all the perfect places for pics at the Venue (Sunset Bluffs) and got photos that look right out of a Bride magazine. She worked well with our last minute hire videographer too and we are glad to have both types of memories captured. You can't go wrong with Danielle Ambry Photography!

We LOVE Danielle. We had been to so many weddings where photo sessions were chaotic, impersonal or just downright stressful, but it was such a breeze with her! She’s so sweet, great sense of humor and made us feel so comfortable and confident. I feel like she immediately picked up on our vision for the day and laidback style, and I think that made such a big difference in how much we were able to relax and enjoy like we wanted to. She was diligent and in control of the photo shoots and poses but they were so effortless we barely remember even taking photos. It all felt like a dream! Our bridal party and family made so many comments about how professional she was, and we felt so confident having her capture all the big moments and little details. Plus, love how light and natural her edits are. Timeless!!

Danielle herself felt like we'd met up with an old friend, she has a great sense of humor and made us feel normal! Directing us to get the right photo even with our awkward selves. Getting the perfect smile from us was not hard for her at all. She knew exactly what to say and do to get an excellent photo. She was very thoughtful in how you looked, from fixing your hair to telling you how to relax or move your arm so that it didn't look out of place or have a bad angle. When I received my photos back (which were in a very timely manner) I think I looked at the photos at least 15 times the day I got them! I had so many feedback comments on how amazing the photos were and who took them!
On my wedding day she was very flexible, on time, and willing to try new things for pictures. Smoke bombs were truly a humorous and great time with her! I couldn't stop laughing. She also worked around my family of 26 people which only includes my immediate family. She never complained and always had a smile on her face. The pictures were a blend of funny, serious, and cute and I loved how they were all captured. She managed to capture moments that will forever me memorable and something I can always go back on and look at. She took pictures that some photographers wouldn't think to get or would miss. I am truly impressed with Danielle. They turned out stunning! She does a wonderful job and if you're looking for a photographer with all the right qualities and skills go with Danielle! I am already talking about getting family photos done by her! She will not disappoint!

Danielle is outstandingly, brilliantly, remarkable. We first met Danielle on the afternoon she took our engagement photos. She was bubbly, energetic and passionate. I knew, right then and there, I was going to love her and her photography, and I’m telling you, we were not disappointed!
When we received our engagement photos, (almost instantaneously, an important note I’d like to add), we were thrilled. She was able to capture every feeling, moment, smile and laugh. She made us feel incredibly comfortable, as if she wasn’t even there, we truly could be ourselves in the moment.
It wasn’t till our wedding day, that she proved she could exceed our expectations! She was wonderful! She arrived promptly, calmed me down, as I was quite stressed that morning, and got down to business. I had given her a VERY detailed shot list of all the photos I wanted, and she captured them all, and even more!
One of the qualities I most admire about Danielle is her ability to move quickly and precisely. We had over 100 different family/bridal party pictures that needed to be taken, and she made it happen, beautifully!!
Her photography is stunning, clean, crisp, and embody every memory and emotion you crave for in a photo.
You will not be disappointed when you hire Danielle. She is hardworking and professional. She loves her job, as it is evident in her passion and determination to make her clients happy, relaxed and feel beautiful.
As my husband and I begin our lives together, there will by many more memories we will want photographed, and we will be calling Danielle!

Stop looking for a photographer right now, because you found her. This girl right here is so unbelievably amazing. When someone has such a passion and love for what they do, their work shows it. She will dedicate herself to your engagement and wedding pictures to look personalized and beautiful. She kept me so calm on my wedding day. She wasn't just there to take pictures, she was there as a friend. Someone to keep my head on straight. She was so much fun! Just a genuinely good person with great talent in photography. We are so happy that we booked Danielle Ambry Photography for our wedding! We have looked at the photos of our wedding over and over again and we are just so thrilled with how beautiful they are and how they really capture our authentic expressions and all the important moments of our special day. Danielle is an outstanding photographer, and the composition, color and artistry in her photos is phenomenal. We had high expectations based on the photos in her portfolio, but our wedding photos exceeded our expectations.

10/10, 5 stars, 100% would recommend Danielle Ambry Photography to anyone in need of a photographer. She is awesome! She shot our engagement pictures and our entire wedding (first look, ceremony, and reception) and captured these amazing moments PERFECTLY! We love every single picture. And we can't stop looking at them! Her light and flawless style makes everyone look good, and even if you think you don't know what you're doing in front of a camera (like my husband and I), she walks you through everything and makes the best looking poses easy and natural! Don't hesitate, stop looking around, and book her now!

Danielle was hands-down the most valuable member of our team of vendors for our wedding day! My mom, my fiancé, and I were pretty overwhelmed with wedding planning, but Danielle went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and helped make planning go really smoothly. She helped us set our day-of timeline, and even drove me to the church on our wedding day! She made us feel really comfortable during our engagement session, and we loved how those pictures turned out, so we didn’t know how she would be able to top them for the wedding! But oh my goodness - our wedding photos were better than I could have even imagined. We got so many compliments on how professional and efficient Danielle was during our wedding day from guests, and we couldn’t agree more. She was so thorough about finding out what we are like as a couple and what was important to capture, which allowed us to be able to just relax and enjoy our big day. I am so thankful that I came across Danielle’s website. Danielle was the perfect person to capture our wedding, and I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding photographer!

Danielle did a fabulous job on our daughter and son in-law’s wedding. She did all the legwork with figuring out the timeline for all of the moments we wanted captured for the wedding day- and she actually made it seem easy. The images are simply gorgeous. With Danielle having a graphic design background - I can really tell she has the “ IT” factor. She has the eye to frame really interesting pictures that we will treasure.
It felt really nice having an organized and professional photographer who knew what she was doing. Of course after seeing the engagement pictures and all the other samples of her work from other people’s weddings, we knew we would be in for a treat. The images are wonderful.
One of the most important aspects of working with Danielle was that she listened to my daughter’s wishes with certain pictures she wanted captured. For example , my daughter had a cathedral-length veil and she wanted some cool shots of that. All we did was express ideas and Danielle made it happen.
My daughter has been dreaming of her wedding day for years and to have the day so beautifully preserved through Danielle’s work feels great.
Thank you for making our daughter’s wedding pictures everything she ever dreamed of !

Wow! Danielle Ambry is truly an amazing photographer and artist! She took our engagement and wedding photos. I couldn't be happier with the way they ALL turned out. They are better than I could have hoped for or imagined- no exaggeration! Danielle just made everything so easy. I am a bit of a worrier and not super in love with having my picture taken, so this was huge for me. She was able to give color/outfit suggestions for our engagement session and planned our outdoor engagement session for the time of day when lighting would be the most flattering. She had a plan ahead of time for everything and it just flowed so easily. All we had to do was just show up. We had so much fun taking pics together and it showed in our photos.
For the wedding, Danielle was able to customize a photo package for us to fit our needs for our smaller intimate wedding. Once again, everything flowed so easily. She is professional yet super fun to work with, always smiling- you can actually tell she enjoys and loves what she is doing. She got our wedding pics back to us in record time and I literally cannot stop looking at them!! I love every single one of them. She captured so many details, big and small, and made everything look so magical and beautiful. For me, the most important thing when planning and budgeting for our wedding was having quality photos to look back on and share with our family for the rest of our lives. Danielle made that possible for us and truly exceeded our expectations in every way possible!

Danielle was amazing to work with! She made sure every shot I dreamed of was captured on our special day! She had our pictures ready sooner than expected and helped the day run smoothly with the timeline that she provided. She is so personable and kept the entire wedding party engaged during the photos. She was even able to get some great shots of my 3 year old son who was not feeling very photogenic! I highly recommend choosing Danielle! She is honestly amazing!!

I can't begin to describe how excited (and lucky) we were to have Danielle be a part of the biggest day of our lives! She has an unparalleled ability to capture moments "in the moment". There is something totally unique about her ability, she just sees things others don't. If that isn't enough, what really sets Danielle apart is her personality and the sense of comfort and fun she brings to the table. She totally puts your mind at ease, so pics are more candid and we didn't feel any pressure with her in our presence. I simply cannot stress to you how important this if you really want authentic pictures. Her work is absolutely stunning, and we would recommend her time and time again for all of your photography needs!
