"I have studied the craft of photography since 2004. My studies first began in Florida, furthered through college attending at UWF, and continuing from passion into a full business. I absolutely love what I do. Capturing special-priceless moments, and love stories is what I live for. Not everyone is comfortable in front of a camera, and I completely understand and recognize this right away. After several mins, you won't even remember the camera is pointing at you. I take so much time in assuring you are comfortable, and this is why images I take shine with light, laughter, and love! Look forward in working together soon!"

A fun fact about me

I was a professional sushi chef at the age of 15. Being artistic and hardworking was instilled in me at a young age, and this passion is what has carried me through life. It is shown in all I accomplish. I love people, animals,(I have three fur-babies), and all events that bring us together.

    I'm writing this review to commend Danielle Penn on a outstanding job well done. I recently utilized Danielle's services for my family portraits. Danielle showed up on time and just delivered it! I was so impressed by her amazing work and how she works well with natural light to produce the exact pictures I was envisioning. They came out perfectly. I'm amazed at her ability to capture the moment and her uncanny eye for detail. This young lady is truly a artist and I look forward to using her for any and all photography needs I highly recommend her to anyone. Real pro 5 stars!!! Thank you so much Danielle.

    Hello. I hired Danielle for my daughter's Sweet 16 park photo session and I made the right choice. I was surprised. I loved all of my pictures! She indeed knows exactly what she is doing. Out of all the photographers I've had in 20 years, my hat goes off to her. You get what you pay for. If you want quality, she is it. She is a professional. I highly recommend her. She guided us in the posing and controlled the lighting. For those of you holding a once in a lifetime special event or would love an amazing family portrait, or any event that matters capturing in a photo, I truly and highly recommend her. I plan on keeping her in my contacts because her work is beautiful!

    We planned to have family photos taken on our vacation and Danielle met our needs perfectly! She joined us at the day and time requested and recommended a great place nearby to take our photos. Not only did we get beautiful family photos, we had a fun time, too. Sleepy, grumpy kids didn't stop Danielle from capturing fantastic professional portraits of our large family. We highly recommend Danielle!
