Danielle is a dream! She makes you feel so comfortable while taking your photos. Not only is her work stunning, but she has a way of making you feel stunning while she is photographing you. She does such an amazing job and works so well with everyone. Danielle has an amazing eye for beauty. She is an artist and an incredible photographer. I would recommend her to anyone!

Danielle is incredibly talented, professional, and generous. She usually does destination weddings but agreed to shoot for our wedding (as well as engagements and bridals) here in Utah and did an amazing job. We couldn't be more pleased with how they turned out. She has such a talent for capturing organic moments, amazing color, and true beauty. I would recommend her to anyone!

My husband and I had a great time working with Danielle. She was very easy to work with leading up to the wedding, and was so fun to have during the event. The photos are gorgeous!
Any questions?

Oh Danielle, she was an absolute dream from beginning to end. She was so professional, but also sweet and excited for us. At the wedding she knew exactly where to be and how to make sure she got the best shots without being in the way. She got our pictures back to us very quickly, and we were blown away and the quality and artistry. I will treasure these forever. You only have one chance to pick the right photographer, and I feel incredibly lucky I picked her. We could not have been happier.

Danielle is everything you would want in a photographer. She captures candid moments, and she picks up on the atmosphere and feeling of the wedding quickly. She is easy to work with, and just an incredible person. You will end up being bffs, I promise! I can't recommend her enough, in fact, 3 of my family members have used her for their weddings because of how incredible the photos ALWAYS turn out. Don't hesitate, go with Danielle!

Danielle is simply incredible. Not only were the photos beautiful, but she instantly became a huge part of the entire wedding experience.
Part of what makes her so talented is her ability to instantly connect with people and understand what's important to you and capture the emotion and moments that matter. Weddings are a hectic event, but she slipped right in, went right to work and even had a calming effect. I absolutely loved working with her that day and would work with her again in a heartbeat.
That being said, the final product was...more than I ever expected. I was initially drawn to her work because it's rich in color (in a natural way), and it was apparent that we shared a love for the outdoors. However, she's much more versatile and you could see the dedication in her editing to ensure every photo was spot on. It didn't matter if people were jammed in a photo booth or we were out in the rain; each setting was captured just right.
If you're looking for a stellar photographer who will care as much as you do about your wedding day, Danielle is the one.

Danielle was an incredible photographer! Her prices are reasonable and her talent is undeniable. We were not only thrilled with our photos, but we really enjoyed spending time with her and now consider her a friend. She put us at ease on a very stressful day. She truly cared about our story, our relationship, and our love. We knew she loved her job and took it very seriously. She is an incredibly dedicated photographer and you would be lucky to have her!

Danielle Woodall photography is the best! Danielle is so sweet and chill and really makes you feel comfortable and relaxed behind the camera. The times we felt awkward she made us look intimate and comfortable! She traveled to us and was very responsible and efficient even though she wasn't familiar with the area. I didn't feel rushed or worried she wasn't going to get the right photos. I highly recommend her as she's affordable, sweet, and very talented!

I found Danielle a few years ago on thumbtack.com, and thank god I did because no one else could have given us the experience she has continued to deliver. Danielle made us feel so comfortable and we truly feel that she captures our genuine selves without pressure, or too much direction, she is so kind, so natural, and cares so much about the people she is taking photos of. We did our engagements, our first look photos, and our wedding and they are PERFECT. Danielle did our family photos as well and every single image is beautifully captured, she is our photographer for life, and she has become a dear friend, she is uncanny at just "getting you" and giving you the moment you truly want to keep forever in a photograph.
I live in Salt Lake City and my home is full of plants. When I’m not connecting with people through photography, I probably am: outside exploring, making art, teaching a class, or dancing in the kitchen.
