“I don’t take pictures or shoot video; I tell stories.” -Dan
The images we create tend to be a warm & creamy panache. They pop with yellow and orange tones and present a soft glow. We also enjoy shooting dark & moody images that exude passion and mystery through deep shadows and vibrant colors.

We could not be happier with the video that Dan and Val created. There are so many beautiful moments throughout the event that they captured perfectly. So many images both fun and sentimental accompanied by music that brings out even more emotion. This is the perfect keepsake of a very special day. We are so fortunate that Dan and Val could be with us to help preserve our memories in such a special way.
Dan at ValDan Films went above and beyond as a wedding videographer. His professionalism, punctuality and personality were top notch and made him so easy to work with. I highly recommend booking ValDan Films for a videographer for any occasion!
Dan was very professional and did an excellent job taking some great fitness photos of my daughter. I highly recommend him!
Any questions?
I was lucky enough to have worked with Dan through a modeling agency shoot in the past. Based on the level of care and attention he provided I knew he would be the perfect fit for our wedding. Being that we were traveling to Paris for the ceremony there was no way we were going to invest in anything less than the best. He has all the right gear to capture everything with cinema quality and is also so personable to work with. Dan knows just how to stage the perfect shots and direct you, as well as being discrete for those necessary moments. Ladies, you get one chance to have it done right. Leave it to a pro. Go with Dan!

Thank you Kelsey! You and Jack were awesome to work with. An intimate and beautiful ceremony... even with a lost bag you pulled it off lady ;-)
Dan delivered above and beyond with our wedding from the very start. We chose him because we were looking for someone with a professional pedigree and a portfolio with actual "motion picture"" experience. Top notch and worth every penny. If you want the best he is your go-to. Thank you for making our wedding a motion picture masterpiece!
