"are you freaking serious!? these are unreal 😭😍😭😍😭😍😭😍😭😍 I literally am in love!"
"The most talented photographer I know. She is the ultimate down to earth, "captures you as you are" woman. Keeping in mind I am a fellow photographer and I can be quite particular when it comes to what I like. I was BLOWN AWAY. I had not liked photos of myself or my fiancee that much up until Danika captured US. She was adventurous, up for anything, accommodating, kind, and her work is just a quality that is a step above the rest. Couldn't sing her praises enough! Allow yourself the privilege to work with her. I would say top 3 in the Okanagan by far!"
rachel + mike
"The way she captured our day brings us right back to the way we felt in the moment. We are so thankful to have the images that so perfectly captured not only the moments, but the feeling of our wedding.
The video Pierre created was so far beyond our wildest expectations! We still can’t watch it without crying!
they were so delightful to have with us throughout the day! They made everyone feel comfortable and brought out laughs when they needed to, and disappeared to capture to most raw moments when they needed to!"

Let's make a history book full of your life. My commitment to you is to create and document beautiful + fun + emotional portraits of you two; genuine, joy filled candids; photos that make you giggle; family portraits to hang on your wall; emotion filled moments that may bring a tear to your eye that will reflect who you are; and to photograph your wedding day as it is.
I want you to look back on this day in 3 or 30 years and remember not only how it looked, but also by how it felt.
my promise to you
the most meaningful photos aren’t always impressive.
