What can I say about Danae and Jerrid?? They are simply amazing! We kind of stumbled upon them while searching for photographers for our wedding. It was like we found our four leaf clover 🍀 They put so much time and energy and thought into everything they did. The beautiful photos speak for themselves! Roy and I have found our life long photographers!!
These two did a wonderful job with our pictures. They even brought a warming tent for us to change in, champagne to cheers to and were open to all our ideas! They were super quick to get our pictures back to us as well! Thank you for capturing this exciting time in our lives!
