RUSSELLS PHOTOGRAPHY HOLDS A SPECIAL PLACE IN MY HEART. Not only are they a family owned business but they genuinely make you feel apart of their family. Danielle and PJ and there ...
two kids are incredible! I can’t express enough how grateful we are to have them play such an important role in our day. They never made us feel like just another wedding. They care about each and every wedding they get to shoot. If you aren’t booking with Russell’s photography you’ve made the wrong choice! Russell’s or nothing!! We love you all!! Love the Crosbys! 3.15.2026

Omg!! What a great experience! Let me start with back in October 24 my husband and I were planning on attending the Tampa wedding expo. Well, it got canceled last minute due to the...
hurricane and I was very upset because we had just moved to the area and we had no idea where to start in regards to vendors for our wedding. Well, Danielle reached out to me because I had planned on meeting her at the expo, but obviously that fell through. She still contacted me and presented to me the promo she was going to have at the expo and still offered it to me. She did not have to do that and she did. I loved her customer experience from the very beginning so we decided to move forward. we had PJ at our wedding and oh my goodness PJ I cannot tell you enough how much fun we had! I love his sense of humor and his dedication. He took the most incredible pictures I have ever seen. Both of them have felt like we have known them forever. And we are so grateful that we had this experience. It also really helped because pj and Danielle are very familiar with our venue, DK farms. It helped so much that our Coordinator and the venue and the photographer all were very familiar with each other. It makes everything so much more smooth. Thank you guys so much and we will definitely be reaching out for any future photo shoots. You guys rock.

process. Day-of, they all had amazing energy and a sense of humor that put me at ease. And the photos are breathtaking. 10/10 recommend if you're looking for a reliable company to capture the moments on your shot list. We hired a second shooter and a videographer with them as well. No regrets on booking with them or the package we went with. I will cherish this footage, and so will my family, forever.

Russell’s Photography was always our first choice for our July 2024 wedding. They have been my family’s “go to” for many years. Danielle, PJ, and their team are professional, accom...
modating, flexible, and lots of fun to work with. They captured so many beautiful moments throughout the day. We are so grateful for their attention to detail during the planning process and on the wedding day. We also booked a Photo Booth and video through them. We are so happy with all our beautiful photos and video memories that we get to look back on for many years to come. Thank you, Russell’s!

Russell’s Photography Studio is nothing short of amazing. Working with this team was pure bliss. Danielle and Pj are a dynamic duo! Just perfect for one another. They know exactly ...
how to capture your memorable moment. Each shot taken individually and as a whole, made capturing our wedding experience worth everything. My husband and I did not have a vision for our wedding photos. So, we decided to trust Danielle and Pj’s vision and fell in love with jaw dropping photos. Every moment counted for. Customer service is impeccable! I can’t forget how helpful Danielle was when helping my bridesmaids lace up my dress, straighten my tiara and fix my bouquet or Pj straightening my train. It was truly a pleasure working with Danielle and Pj. You will not be disappointed when choosing Russell’s Photography Studio to capture your most memorable moments. They’re an experience all their own.
We couldn’t be more thrilled with the amazing work Danielle did for our wedding! From the very beginning, they were professional, attentive, and really took the time to understand ...
our vision. On the big day, they captured every special moment without ever feeling intrusive, and the photos are simply stunning. Their attention to detail and ability to capture candid emotions are unmatched. We now have the most beautiful memories of our wedding, all thanks to Danielle. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a talented and reliable photographer!
I cannot thank Danielle enough. Our pictures came out beautifully, and she was so easy to work with. For someone who doesn't like pictures, she made me feel easy. She kept everyth...
ing on track and even wrangled in some of our groomsmen.
From the moment we first met Danielle and PJ at Russell's Photography, we knew we were in good hands. They were not only professional and organized but also warm and understanding,...
which made us feel at ease throughout the entire planning process.
On the day of our wedding, Danielle and PJ and their team worked tirelessly to capture every special moment. Their creativity and attention to detail were truly impressive. They managed to capture the essence of our day perfectly, from the intimate moments to the grand celebrations. They even included a drone to capture our wedding, which we didn't expect but was so awesome! The Photo Booth they provided was also a huge hit with the guests.
One of the most incredible aspects of working with them was how quickly they delivered our photos and videos. We were blown away by the quality and how fast we received them—it was like reliving our wedding day all over again!
Danielle and her team were not just photographers and videographers; they were lifesavers! They even stepped in to help with our engagement photos when my original photographer cancelled on me last minute and those pictures turned out amazing and I knew I had to hire them for my wedding.
I've received countless compliments from friends and family about how amazing our photos and videos turned out. Choosing Russell's Photography was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding, and it's true what they say—everything happens for a reason.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for capturing our special day so beautifully. We would wholeheartedly recommend Danielle and her team to anyone looking for exceptional wedding photography and videography.

Melissa was an amazing photographer and so easy to work with the day of the wedding. Our pictures came out beautiful!
They were nice people and worked fast. But when we got all the wedding pictures back we were disappointed. I will say, it was the hottest day in July and we were sweaty so things h...
ad to be done quickly (which we appreciated at the time)…but there were just so many…for lack of a better term…” throw away pictures” in there that seemed to have just been taken just for the sake of having more photos. It was a hot day, but the venue we were at was BEAUTIFUL on the inside and there were more photo opportunities in there than there were outside. I guess I could have been more vocal about where we wanted the pictures taken but there wasn’t really any time to get a word in. We had to work extra quickly because one of the photographers had to “leave early”. We also had to take pictures of us “cutting the cake” when we actually weren’t for that reason. I wouldn’t recommend them to anyone.
We booked Danielle and team at Russel's Photography for our September 1st, 2023 wedding and they were nothing short of AMAZING! From the moment Danielle and I met, I knew our photo...
s were going to be exceptional. Danielle was always available to talk whether it was over text, email, or phone. She is quick to respond and doesn't keep you waiting. Her teaknows what they are doing and had some great ideas. I loved how she took what I pinned on Pinterest and made those ideas come to life. She makes you a priority and does all that she can to make your wedding day about you. The fact that we got our photos within a week of the wedding shows she is dedicated to her work. I will use Danielle and team for any future photo ops needed. THANK YOU DANIELLE AND TEAM FOR capturing our wedding day and providing us with the amazing photos that i continue to go back to daily and remember how great the whole this day was for us.
We booked Russell’s for our 08.26.23 wedding at Anthony’s Ocean View. From start to finish, working with Danielle was so stress free. They are honest, hardworking people who do not...
want to waste your money. The turnaround time for the photos was so quick as well. The photos were a dream - I still can’t believe our day happened and I’m so happy to have these memories photographed so beautifully. Thank you Danielle, Melissa and Alyson of Russell’s!!
I can’t even begin to explain how incredible and amazing Melissa made our wedding day. Every single photo she took was elegant and beautiful. Not only did she take amazing photos b...
ut she helped keep our day running smoothly, bustled my dress for me, and was completely supportive when we had some misshapes with other vendors. The pictures are so beautiful I can’t even explain. She made sure to get pictures of every single person at the event, a great mix of groups, and ensured we got all the photos we wanted for the night. She and the Russells the were very responsive to all emails. Russells had top tier professionalism and quality!!!!! 1000000000% recommend
We first met Danielle and PJ at the Tampa wedding expo in May of 2022. We did some research on them before the expo, and I was obsessed with their portfolio. When we met them, I fe...
ll in love. They are so personable, and have that creative eye to turn ordinary pictures into works of art. Everyone who has seen our photos from our wedding day have given so many compliments on how beautiful they are, and had never seen pictures similar to ours. I honestly can’t give them enough compliments. They’re efficient (got most of our wedding party photos done beforehand so they could enjoy some of the cocktail hour and we took most of the hour doing just couple photos), communicative, and great with the little ones (we had 4 flower girls and ZERO meltdowns because they were so fast!). They’re literally everything I wanted and more, and I can guarantee you won’t regret choosing them for your big day!! I highly recommend choosing a second photographer for not only the candid shots, but they can simultaneously shoot pictures before in both the bride and groom suites. Thank you guys so much!!!
Our photographer was phenomenal! He did an amazing job position everyone and making our "camera shy" group feel comfortable while capturing amazing memories! He also was able to ge...

We had an amazing experience working with Melissa from Russell's Photography for our summer wedding. In addition to being incredibly talented, Melissa was very friendly and a pleas...
ure to work with; she made the entire photo-taking experience so fun. We shot photos at multiple locations on a 95-degree day, but thankfully Melissa check-in with us every step of the way to make sure we had everything we needed (shade, water, breaks!) to have a good time. Our photos were sent to us only a couple days after the wedding, and they turned out beautifully. We're so thankful our favorite memories of the day were captured in such stunning photos so we can look back on them for a lifetime!
Don't hesitate, book Russell's. Danielle was amazing to work with leading up to our wedding. Day of we had Melissa and her team as photographers and Alyson as a videographer. Th...
ey were wonderful to work with that day and after as we received the final product.
Melissa and Alyson were so fun to work with. The pictures we got back are perfect - and shots we never knew they got. The video was more than we expected - Alyson seemed to be everywhere.
Danielle worked with us on the package that made the most sense for us. She checked in as the day got closer, which answered lots of our outstanding questions.
Thank you Danielle, Melissa and Alyson for capturing our important day!
We loved Lisa who worked with us! She asked us ahead of time exactly what we were looking for, brought her list to ensure all couples were included in formals and photos and I had ...
a couple additional requests for my aunts to be in special photos and she pulled me aside to ensure that happened. Come the end of the night Lisa asked if we wanted some formals outside as the sun was going down which we didn't and she was totally OK with it! Some photographers can get pushy knowing they have a job to do but Lisa worked with us and worked exactly the way we requested.. We'd recommend her and her team in a heartbeat.
Russells was amazing on the day of our wedding, capturing every single detail. They were included in our package with Birchwoods and they did not disappoint. PJ was so helpful in m...
aking me and my husband feel comfortable. We had a fairly large bridal party and he was able to manage all of us! Russells got all of our edited pictures back to us within 5 days of our wedding, which was amazing. I would recommend Russells to anyone needing a photographer! Our photos are absolutely beautiful!

ly just wanted someone to capture our day and be able to watch the videos and feel like we are reliving our day. Alyson did just that! She was able to capture all of the love that day and it shows in the videos. She also did a great teaser for us which I added on after! I am really happy we decided to get a videographer! I highly recommend Alyson! I also would recommend Russell’s photography! I had a family member use them and her pictures were beautiful! They were so easy to communicate with.
Honestly, I can't say enough about Danielle! We chose Russell's as part of a vendor package included with our venue, but we are so happy that we did! Right from the beginning of ...
our engagement photo shoot through our wedding, Danielle made us feel so comfortable with her and the camera! Between her and PJ at our wedding, we received over 1300 photos in 6 hours! I was so impressed with how many different angles and shots they were able to get in such a short period of time! We absolutely LOVED working with Russell's Photography Studio, and plan to use them again in the future! I whole-heartedly recommend Russell's to anyone in need of a photographer!

otos. Our photos came out amazing and are everything that we could have wanted. I had given Danielle a huge list of photos that I wanted and on the wedding day, she made sure she was capturing it all. She actually knew the list better than I did! Before the wedding, we also went through which styles of photos we preferred, poses that we wanted, etc. I could tell that Danielle really wanted us to love our wedding photos. It has been a month since our wedding and we are still receiving so many compliments and love looking at them ourselves! We also got our photos back within a week of our wedding. Highly recommend!!

beautiful fall day. Both Danielle and Lisa were so upbeat, friendly, and accommodating.
