Read More of Our Story!
Wedding photography is my favorite. No, really! Getting to meet people in love, being in the middle of celebration, and making people feel and look GREAT is what makes my heart full!
Even more than that, wedding photography has intertwined itself within my story both as a 2021 bride, and because of what photography means to me. With a family history of Alzheimer's disease and some neurons that never fully recovered after some (yes, some) concussions, I know first hand that photos can help trigger our senses to trigger our memories. They help us tell stories and keep telling them long after we can't tell them any more. That is what drives me.
It's the life that is in the little moments (giggling over extravagant milkshakes from Wawa) to the big moments (when we said our vows with our toes in the sand). The photos that we surround ourselves with because they narrate our lives together are the proof that our love story has been built over time.
Want to hear a crazy story? It's just a click away!
He's the one who keeps me laughing...
Our wedding day did NOT go as planned. We had to re-plan everything except my husband's tux 8 weeks before our wedding. And on our wedding day, we ad-libbed in our vows a bit to talk about the craziness of all the sandflies in our faces, and the fact that we had to run to HEB after an 8 hour road trip to get flowers because we left my bouquet at home. It was the most perfectly imperfect day in the best of ways.
My husband (still makes me smile to say that!) found all of the ways to make me smile and laugh through all of the crazy, and that's what makes him the best behind the scenes partner of all. Brendan is the best supporter and cheerleader of my dreams as we continue to write our own love story.
There is no one else I'd rather go through life with than him!
More on Danielle!
These are a few of my favorite things...
At our house, family cuddle time usually involves reruns of FRIENDS, watching a good Marvel movie or being inspired by some of Gordon Ramsay's shows (Uncharted and Next Level are our current favorites!).
I love red lipstick, dancing in kitchen, and watching Audrey Hepburn movies.
I love a good chat over a hot cup of tea and sharing life with people. And yes, I will help your guests remember the steps to The Wobble (gotta show of my Philly moves!).
Most of all, I'd love to meet you!
See DLPs Mission!

From Camera Shy to Comfortable
Read more from our awesome couples!
Danielle went above and beyond for my husband and I! She helped along every step of the way from the start with engagement photos, to wedding planning questions and advice, to wedding day photos. Danielle has an amazing personality and way about her that makes even the most camera shy couple feel comfortable. We had so much fun for our photo sessions and the pictures came out incredible! With her experience she thought of pictures that I never thought of to help us cherish and forever remember our special day. I can not recommend Danni Lea Photography enough! She is fantastic!

Amazingly Comfortable

"I cannot speak highly enough about Danielle. She was the perfect photographer for us. My wife and I are rather photo adverse, but she made us both feel amazingly comfortable. She was able to do this both at engagement photo shoot and at the wedding itself. We had complete trust in Danielle and it was really nice to know that we didn’t need to worry about the photos during the wedding. We could not be more pleased with the photos she took. Each one captured our wedding perfectly. "

Laughed and Smiled the Whole Time

"We absolutely loved doing our engagement photos with Danni! The photos are beautiful and the experience was fun and easy. We laughed and smiled the whole time. Danni was accommodating, meeting us in Fort Worth, and continued to provide excellent customer service, providing us with many shots, and even checking in on us when the pandemic hit right around our wedding. Would definitely recommend her!"

Proposal Pro

"Danielle is great! She agreed, on short notice, to photograph our wedding proposal on Christmas Eve! The pictures were great, and she was so helpful in making sure the proposal went smoothly by keeping the public away from us while I hit the knee. She is so easy to work with and I highly recommend her!"
