    Diana was amazing! She was patient and kind throughout everything. She made me feel so comfortable during bridals, even though I had no idea how to pose. The wedding day was a dream with Diana. We made a timeline and a photo list, but both didn’t go according to plan because weddings never do! But we were able to adjust and everything was great. Diana made sure I was happy with whatever changes needed to be made and asked constantly if there was anything else she could do for us. I would pick Diana over and over! She was truly a gem on my wedding day and for bridals.

    Diana is kind, very communicative and very professional. I've heard of other photographers not communicating prior to weddings or dropping off the face of the earth, but not the case with Diana! There's open communication and planning and discussion and she checks in beforehand. She is able to be respectful yet also wrestle the groups and poses together that need to happen! We had 150 family members between my husband and me, and she was able to organize everyone into family photos very efficiently--it was like herding cats but she made it look easy! She helped coach my husband and me so that poses looked natural, and walked us through activities to get great bridal party photos. She respected our preferences for minimal editing, with bright and clear photos with lots of light. She had a second shooter as well and they collaborated together very well together to get great photos. I loved how Diana was assertive in her communication with our videographer and any other vendors to make sure they weren't in shots so I didn't have to worry about my positioning or spend any mental energy on that because I knew she had it taken care of. 10/10 would recommend her as a wedding photographer!

    Diana has done photography for me multiple times, so when it came to finally choosing our wedding photographer, it was a no-brainer for us. We had a change of plans that moved up our wedding by over 3 months. Diana was flexible throughout and worked with us to make sure all of the details suited our big day. On our wedding day, she was an absolute ray of sunshine. She was a calming presence and was great at directing more camera-shy individuals. Our photos turned out perfectly. She really captured the energy of the day. I would definitely recommend her work!
