About

Colorado springs & denver based wedding photographer

MY MISSION

I'm here to help you capture EVERY MEMORY, so you can be FULLY PRESENT on your big day.

Ever since I was little, I was captivated by old family photo albums—the way a single image could hold an entire story. I’d flip through them for hours, imagining what those moments felt like for my mom, my dad, my grandmother. As I got older, I realized just how precious memories are. I wished I could freeze time and hold onto every feeling. So I learned the closest thing - image crafting. My mission is to help you fall in love with your story and preserve it for future generations. I'll bottle up every single moment, so you can relive them over and over again.

Hey there.
I'm Danielle Pearce.

I've been photographing since the age of 13 and I mean it when I say I'm a true romantic. 

Seriously... I tear up at almost every wedding, I jam out to Taylor Swift before every shoot, and I can't help but romanticize the little things. I've always had big dreams of becoming a big time photographer, which led me to get a bachelor's degree in photography and eventually move from Virginia Beach, to NYC, to Austin, to Colorado. And while I have worked with magazines and clothing brands, I ultimately felt drawn to photographing what means most to me in life: LOVE. 

My favorite part of my job? GIVING MY COUPLEs A photography experience that feels effortless, personal, and truly them.

WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY IS personal AND IT SHOULD feel THAT WAY too.

Your wedding photographer is with you through some of the most intimate and emotional moments of your life. That’s why it’s so important to have someone who feels like more than just a vendor—but a reassuring presence who truly understands you. I approach every wedding with thoughtfulness and care, observing the little moments just as much as the big ones. From guiding you with intentional posing to stepping back when the moment calls for it, I create space for you to feel comfortable, confident, and fully present. Your experience should feel effortless, and your photos should feel like you—timeless, genuine, and full of life.

Danielle is creative and fun, and her warm personality put my fiancé and I immediately at ease.

How I Became a
Wedding Photographer

I got my start as an internationally exhibited and published fashion photographer in New York City

But ultimately, I was drawn to capturing what matters most in life: love. With a BFA in Photography from Parsons and years in the fashion and commercial photography industries, I moved to Colorado to return to what I love—documenting real people and sharing real stories. Photographing events like New York Fashion Week taught me the art of observation, a skill I bring to every wedding—balancing candid, in-between moments with editorial, magazine-worthy portraits.

MY professional CV

Healing through imagery

As a BRCA 1 previvor, photography has been my biggest healing tool

I come from a line of strong, BRCA positive women who have all faced multiple breast cancers. At 24 I decided to get a preventative mastectomy that forever changed my perspective on life. I've documented my own BRCA Journey on Youtube and through fine-art photography, and now want to help as many other people facing mastectomy feel like themselves again (or preserve the memory of their pre-mastectomy body). Photography & community are some of the best healing tools.
