Photography started as the thing I did on holidays, always waiting for the perfect sky or the quiet early-morning moments. After years of working in accounts (good at it, but not in love with it), I finally decided that life’s too short not to chase what makes you feel alive. I studied photography in London, took every course I could, and spent every spare moment learning, shooting, and growing. Landscapes and cityscapes were my first love — but once I stepped into the world of weddings, I fell for the details, the emotion, and the connection between people.
HI, I'M DANNI
Essex-born photographer with a big love for travel, adventure and capturing the world as I see it.
WEDDING & LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHY
I live with my daughter, my little best mate, who shares my love for creativity and travel. It’s been just the two of us since she was tiny, and we’ve built a pretty special bond — I’m sure she often thinks, “Mum, you’re not normal,” especially when I drag her out for sunrise shoots, but she’s got her own camera now, so she’s just as bad. My family is my anchor; I spend loads of time with my parents, my sister, and my nieces and nephews. I’m the “naughty auntie” who gets video calls about sunsets and edits photos with the girls on the sofa.
Travel, Adventure & Stories Worth Telling
STORIES WORTH TELLING
Travel feeds my soul. New York and Italy are my two favourite places — the mountains, the food, the wine, the skylines, the energy. If I could live between both, I would. I’ve had wild adventures along the way… from getting thrown off a horse in Cappadocia and finishing the trip with a broken elbow (still climbed cliffs and went ballooning) to unforgettable photography jobs around the world. The highlight? Shooting the New Year’s Eve fireworks for the King of Bahrain — days of adrenaline, police escorts, zero sleep, endless editing, and the kind of experience you never forget.

WHO I AM BEHIND THE CAMERA
I’m easy-going, always up for a laugh, and definitely have a mischievous side — my friends know never to put me on loudspeaker because you never know what I’ll say. I love a cold beer after a long shoot, early sunrises in London, dramatic skies, and watching Leeds Rhinos play. But above all, I love creating images that feel honest and full of life. Whether I’m photographing a wedding, a portrait, a city skyline or a huge event, I’m always striving to tell the truest version of the story in front of me.
