The beauty of your family isn’t in the perfect poses—it’s in the real, unscripted moments.
Motherhood is messy, beautiful, and absolutely worth remembering.

Testimonial
Katie, day-in-the-life family photos in Denver, Colorado
"Danica, you met my expectations and blew them away into another category I didn’t even know existed. You see the amazing small moments!! When we did our last photoshoot with you, it was like you caught the behind the scenes moments. My kids walking down the stars, singing songs getting into the car, the chaos of getting ready for dinner…you have a way of bringing to light the activities we do every day that we take for granted now, but deep down know that we are going to miss like crazy when our kids grow up!!"

I’m Danica. Your Denver Family Photographer.

In the enneagram, I’m an INFP… “INFP’s always look for the hint of good in even the worst of people and events; they search for ways to make things better. They may be perceived as calm or reserved, yet they have an inner fire and passion.”
From the adventurous mountains of Colorado to the comfort of your Denver living room, I preserve the little moments that mean the most to your unique family.

“You will not find anyone better…guaranteed. Danica was more than our birth photographer; she was part of our team and support system. She didn’t just take pictures; she was encouraging and supportive and helpful. We keep receiving these little gifts from you and every time, I am just amazed at how above and beyond you go. We will have the pictures to last a lifetime, but we will also have this amazing story to tell about how blessed we were to have such an amazing photographer and now friend!”

“Again and again motherhood demands that we break through our limitations, that we split our hearts open to make room for something that may be more than we thought we could bear. In that sense, the labor with which we give birth is simply a rehearsal for something mothers must do over and over: turn ourselves inside out, and then let go.”

“Danica, I’m speechless. These are the best images we’ve ever had as a complete family. Better than our wedding and anything else. I’m going through them over and over. So good. I seriously am so in love with what you’re doing. You have found your gold. We sometimes sit on the couch and stare at your work, in awe. It’s even better knowing the lady behind the camera is such a beautiful soul.”

“Omg. You have a beautiful personality & you’ve always taken great care of us but Danica, it’s your products that truly differentiate you & keep us coming back! Your deep rooted belief that photos deserve to be treated as art, placed on prominent display & enjoyed daily has changed the way I think about family photos! Your work is not just a cliche, it’s ART. There are lots of good photographers who also are great people, I just can’t bring myself to call them, because you set the bar too damn high!!”

“Danica was amazing to work with in every way! She absolutely made us feel completely comfortable and was way above par on customer service as well. It was really important to me (who is SUPER picky about pictures!) that the pictures be not just cute pictures of our baby, but works of art as well. And she absolutely delivered. It was a tall order, but her style and talent absolutely rise above the rest and I think we’ll have to keep her on retainer as our son gets bigger!”

“Danica is absolutely lovely to work with. She is a genuine soul who understands the importance of connecting at the heart level in order to bring forth the best aspects of who you are–and is talented enough to capture it on camera with a modern, artistic flair! I love the deep value she places on family and why she does what she does. I do believe her work is making this world a better place, one family at a time. When you hire her, definitely take a minute to get to know her, too. 🙂 Just beautiful.”
