award-winning wedding, editorial & lifestyle photographers
Danielle Simone
Hi! I'm Danielle. I'm a visual artist: I photograph, I design, I paint, I illustrate & I set up installations.
In my company, we like to keep things simple; we like real love, natural colors and in-between moments.
I have photographed weddings for over 15 years (13 solo!), and started working as an assistant wedding photographer in a studio. I’ve photographed weddings all over the world, including Brussels, France, Amsterdam, Egypt, Thailand, Vietnam, Mexico, Argentina and hopefully more soon!
I photograph weddings with a team who has been training with me for over 5 years each, and my lead photographer positions are only filled by those who have trained 5+ years with me. If I am booked already on the wedding date you inquire about, I will offer you the services of my associate photographers.
