My Approach
This story is yours!
I want you to love your photos not just now but in the 10 and even 20 years to come. I want to create images that are creative and quirky but also meaningful and timeless. My aim is to capture the unique vibe of your day, documenting all of your precious moments in a natural and unobtrusive way, taking the lead only where I feel that it is needed/welcomed. My style? A mix of artistic reportage and fine portraiture. However, the overall approach is tailored around your visions of the day and your personality. The truth is art is a personal thing that touches everyone differently. We all have our own unique style and creative vision that we uniquely bring to this world.

Here’s what I'm all about: I LOVE getting to see our clients as friends, because when the wedding day comes I get to CELEBRATE WITH YOU!. I have a heart for exploration and I love working with couples who share this adventurous spirit and desire to create something breath-taking that will last a lifetime . Your wedding is YOUR story. Its beautiful, its messy, its totally unique. I'm wild about capturing every part of it.

About Me
My name is Daniela and I am a wedding photographer based in Cambridge.
My name is Daniela and I am a wedding photographer based in Cambridge.
I have always wanted to do something creative as a career. I thought that I wanted to be an artist and then an art teacher. But it was then that I photographed my first wedding.That is when I found that I love photography and that I am actually pretty good at it!
|
When I hold a camera, I feel adrenaline, excitement and passion but also the strong sense of responsibility that comes with it. I realise that if I want capture people in a natural and timeless manner,then I need to help them forget that they are in front of the camera so then they can lose themselves in the moment and enjoy every second spent with their loved one.

What do I personally think about weddings? One of my former brides said: “A wedding is a party, not a performance” and I totally agree.

Engagement Photography Session
An engagement photo shoot is a great opportunity for you to see how your photographer works. For me, it is a chance to get to know you both as individuals and as a couple. Together, we will find out what style, poses and mood work for you and you will realise that having pictures taken can be fun! It is a great way to shed all of the “I don’t really like to have pictures taken” or “I don’t photograph well” feelings. This will help you to feel more at ease on your Big Day.

I really value the opportunity to meet and work with you before the big day so I offer the engagement session free of charge with every wedding. It is not included in the wedding contract.Check out my pre-wedding portfolio by clicking on the button below.

How long will you stay?
In the morning, I normally come at the time when you start with your makeup and hair and I will stay till about 10.00pm.
Of course, if you have something special planned a bit later, then I will not disappear.
How many photos will we get?
This varies depending on the number of locations, the light conditions, weather, the people involved, how much is going on, the season etc.
However, I feel that it is pretty safe for me to say that you will get about 500 photos (usually a lot more).
When will we get to see our wedding photos?
This can take between 4 - 8 weeks depending on the time of the year and how many weddings I shot before yours. I look at each photo individually while aiming to get the best results that I can.
On occasion, I might need to clean up a photo a bit, removing extraneous objects
such as plugs or exit signs.
.
How far do you travel?
I am based in Cambridge but I do travel all around Cambridgeshire and the surrounding counties. If your venue is more than about 2 hours drive from Cambridge, please do get in touch as there might be an additional charge for petrol and/or accommodation required.
How long will the online gallery be up for?
Your photos will stay online for 6 months.
Are you fully insured?
I am fully insured, including public liability

Do you do family group photos too?
Absolutely. They are important part of a wedding day and though it does take a bit of organisation and time, they provide a great memory of the family and friends present at your wedding. I always advise my couples to keep the list short and simple, and to keep it to a maximum of 7 so then we don’t take forever. It is always helpful to get one or two of your ushers to assist in organising the groups.
Do we get any black and white photos?
After I edit all of the photos in colour, I will carefully pick the photos that I think would look great in black and white. After you get to see them online, you can decide whether you would like any more.
How and when can we arrange the pre-wedding meeting?
Just drop me a line and we can arrange this. It is better to already know quite a few details and timings regarding your wedding day so then we can discuss your requirements and plan accordingly. I normally combine this with your engagement session so please allow 2 - 3 hours for this.
What should we wear for your engagement session?
You can wear whatever you feel comfortable or want to be photographed in. I would recommend to stay away from overly sporty clothing and to try to match up your styles.
Where will our engagement session take place?
Cambridge (I am based here) and its surrounding areas offer many lovely spots for engagement photography. The cobbled streets of Cambridge create a great backdrop and are especially great when bad weather makes shooting in nature a bit impractical. However, where this is not possible (for example due to the distance), we can arrange to do this somewhere else.
Will you require food and drink on the day?
Though this is not obligatory and it is not part of the contract, it is great to be fed and
I would really appreciate some food. I do get pretty hungry working all day.
Other useful info
It is important for me to be able to further present my work (this is part of your wedding contract) and to be able to display the wedding photos, such as including them in my web portfolio, entering them into competitions or publishing them in magazines and on the internet. If you do not wish for your photos to be shared this way, please request this at the time of booking. Similarly, after the wedding, if you know that there are photos you would like to keep private, please let me know.
