I'm incredibly passionate about elopements and intimate weddings because my husband and I eloped and it was the best decision for us. We had so much fun getting married that we wanted to do it again! I also love a good party, so whether you're getting married just the two of you or you have all of your best people surrounding you, I am here to document your day with honesty, artistry and heart. 

Hey, I’m Daniela!

Dani is EVERYTHING you want and need in a wedding photographer. Starting from when we first sent her an inquiry, her way of communicating is very personal. The photos turned out exactly how we dreamed of—beautifully captured, dreamy, indie film vibe. She really nailed it! Whenever I look back on our wedding day, I remember feeling grounded, calm and in love. Then I would look at the pictures and see those same feelings. Believe me when I say, if Dani is your wedding photographer, you can focus all your energy on just enjoying your special day, as you should. She will make sure you have all of your fond memories immortalized in photographs.

If you are looking to feel completely taken care of and looked after on your wedding day, Dani is your person. Not only does she go above and beyond to make your wedding photography visions come true, she is a gifted artist who will confidently and skillfully capture your day and make you feel gorgeous while doing it. We were especially impressed both with Dani’s mindful aesthetics (down to the smallest of details) but also her ability to manage and organize our needs/schedule day of. We cannot recommend Gemini Sun Creative enough!

Michaela & alex

From start to finish Dani curates each experience to be truly amazing. From the questionnaires to get to know us, to the actual elopement day, we felt completely seen, understood, and cared for. We felt guided to look our best throughout the shoot and comfortable being ourselves, which you can see in every picture. Documenting our day authentically was the most important thing to us and Dani delivered beyond expectations. Her experience and knowledge of elopements really shine through her work and we recommend her to everyone for the best day!

Dani has truly been such a DREAM to work with. When finding our engagement/wedding photographer we knew we wanted someone who was queer-inclusive, artistic and had great energy. Dani embodies all of these traits and so much more. Not only has Dani been an amazing photographer, but she has become such a great friend and is always so willing to jump on FaceTime to talk about your vision. She takes a special interest and always makes you feel seen and heard. Her ability to guide her clients and lead with professionalism, positivity, and talent is unmatched, not to mention you will LOVE your photos.

Dani is AMAZING!! Personally and professionally. My husband and I wanted our wedding to be simple, intimate and stress-free. Throughout the whole process, Dani truly cared about understanding our vision and was so thoughtful in bringing it to life. We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer and hype woman on our day. She made us feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera. She is magic in all that she does from start to finish! I will continue to recommend her to anyone in need of breathtaking photos that capture the essence of YOU!
