We came out to Oregon for a trip & I had planned to propose to my girlfriend here. Dan was an absolute pleasure to work with as he helped me find a spot (being from out of town) and was very communicative throughout the whole process. Our shoot finished late, and Dan still managed to get me several AMAZING photos that evening so we could share with friends & family. Dan is the best, made taking the photos fun & comfortable and I would 100% recommend anyone work with him as we just could not be happier with the experience & the quality of the photos!!!!

Dan is an amazing photographer! When originally booking with Dan, we planned to get married out on the coast. When our wedding venue location changed, Dan was quick to confirm that the new location was good to go! On the day of the wedding, Dan was very kind and SUPER helpful when it came to poses as I had no idea what I was doing 😂. Throughout the day, everyone was enjoying the wedding and Dan was able to catch it perfectly through photos. My family, friends and I continuously mentioned how fun he was to work with and how comfortable he made everyone feel! If you're looking for a photographer who is kind and welcoming, along with someone who can capture amazing photos I would definitely go with Dan!!

We took a family trip to the PNW and stumbled upon Dan’s page when looking at someone who could knock it out of the park for family photos. We just let him know we’d be in the Cannon Beach area and he picked out a phenomenal location for pictures. We have a big family and he did a great job of capturing everyone and coordinating each couple, making sure the kids had their own moment, etc. The photos came out excellent. Highly recommend Dan!!

Best family photos ever. Gorgeous lighting. We are beyond pleased with Dan’s work. He met our crew at Oceanside for a sunset photo shoot. There were 4 kids, 10 adults and 2 dogs. He excelled at capturing the kids. The photos are priceless. He captured the big family group, each family, sibling groups, and candid shots. It was a fun vacation activity. You should hire him.

We had a fantastic experience with Dan! He made our family feel comfortable right away, and the entire session was fun and relaxed. He was wonderful with our young children and so patient with our goofy dog, who had other ideas that day, yet he still captured some amazing shots! Even though we booked a mini session, Dan made every minute count. He asked about our must-have photos, paid attention to the little details, and captured our family's personalities and dynamic beautifully. We were amazed by how many gorgeous photos we had to choose from. It was absolutely worth the investment, and we highly recommend Dan!

Dan was the perfect combination of laid-back and professional. He made everything so easy and we are so happy with our pictures. We took photos while in town from another state, and our 11 year old son even named it one of the top 5 highlights of the trip, which says a lot about Dan's ability to connect with people quickly. Highly recommend!

What an incredible experience with Dan! He is so helpful and an amazing person. I recently proposed to my beautiful woman and hired Dan to take photos of the moment and after. He was so helpful in assisting with the planning, and coaching us on poses and capturing all the right angles. He took the best pictures and captured the moment perfectly. I cannot recommend him enough! 5 stars across the board, thanks Dan!!
