GUYS!!! I’m SO excited to share this wedding on my blog today!! - Oh man. I can’t even describe how incredibly symbolic, unique, and beautiful this French wedding was. You’re just going to have to go to my website and read the story yourself! 🙈 - Trust me. You’re not going to want to miss this one! Link is in my story and bio! GO GO GO!! 💕 ________________________ #danipuringtonphotography #engagementphotographer #adventurousengagement #adventurousweddingphotographer #authenticlovemag #adventuroussouls #adventurouslovestories #dirtybootsandmessyhair #LOVEANDWILDHEARTS #belovedstories #engagementphotos #engagement #engagementsession #delightfulstories #truelovestory #staywild #wanderingweddings #photobugcommunity #destinationwedding #destinationweddingphotographer #elopementlove #frenchweddingphotographer #frenchelopementphotographer #frenchwedding #frenchweddingstyle #francewedding #weddingfrance #weddinginfrance
Jace’s reaction as he sees his bride for the first time on their wedding day. ✨ - This wedding in Santa Cruz meant so much to me. Jordan and Jace easily became friends of mine as we ran around through the sand dunes in Pismo together about a year ago for their engagement shoot. Afterwards, as we were full of sand and hungry as ever, me, my husband, and these two got a cute little breakfast afterwards at a local cafe together and chatted about life and the awesome + not so awesome parts of marriage. It was so good talking with them and encouraging them as they progressed through this exciting time on their lives! - One of my favorite parts about this job is making friends with my clients and supporting them through this season. Getting food or coffee before our engagement shoot just to talk and get to know each other in person, or scheduling dinner dates before the wedding not only this helps me understand my couples better and what’s truly important to them (and what I should include more of in their gallery!), but it also makes this whole process so much more fun and comfortable for all of us. - If you’re down to be friends, then I’m your gal! This job is essentially my heart - being friends with amazing people as we walk through one of the greatest times in their lives! If this sounds just peachy to you, then we should chat! 😉💕 _____________________ #danipuringtonphotography #engagementphotographer #adventurousengagement #adventurousweddingphotographer #authenticlovemag #adventuroussouls #adventurouslovestories #dirtybootsandmessyhair #LOVEANDWILDHEARTS #belovedstories #delightfulstories #truelovestory #staywild #wanderingweddings #photobugcommunity #californiaweddingphotographer #californiaelopementphotographer #destinationweddingphotographer #elopementlove #oregonelopementphotographer #washingtonelopementphotographer #firstlookwedding #santacruzweddingphotographer #santacruzelopementphotographer
A wedding photographer’s ode to the end of summer. 👇🏻 - You were crazy. You were hot. You took me to cool places, I mean, I traveled A LOTTT. - I sweat through every outfit, As people said “I do”, And left every weekend, With some giant “to do’s”. - I ate lots of chicken, Beef, and fish, And maybe some cake, To finish each dish. - I’ll miss you summer, But if I’m being real, I’m excited to wear sweaters, And feast every holiday meal. 🍂😂 - Now, enjoy some of my faves from Allison and Clif’s wedding in the Tetons - one of the crazy beautiful places I was able to visit this summer. ANYONE ELSE PUMPED FOR FALL?!✨ __________________________ #danipuringtonphotography #engagementphotographer #adventurousengagement #adventurousweddingphotographer #authenticlovemag #adventuroussouls #adventurouslovestories #dirtybootsandmessyhair #LOVEANDWILDHEARTS #belovedstories #delightfulstories #truelovestory #staywild #wanderingweddings #photobugcommunity #californiaweddingphotographer #californiaelopementphotographer #destinationweddingphotographer #elopementlove #wyomingweddingphotographer #wyomingelopementphotographer #grandtetonsnationalpark #grandtetonswedding #grandtetonsweddingphotographer

WE’RE OFFICIALLY SOLD OUT!! 😭🙌🏻 - Guys. I think all of us at @rootedwrkshp are just humbled at the amount of support and ladies that want to attend our workshop. I can’t even tell you what that means to me and the affirmation that brings into what we are doing. - I first created Rooted because I hadn’t really seen any photo workshops out there quite like it - just centered on building a beautiful community of ladies who all support each other even past the workshop. And it’s become SO much more than that. God continues to move through every workshop, and it blows my mind every time. - This workshop was created not only because we have a passion for mentoring and teaching other ladies like us, but also because of Jesus. And whether an attendee believes in Jesus or not - everyone is open to come! - and I think that’s beautiful. - SO, this part is for you guys: THANK YOU!!! Thank you for supporting my dream, making it happen, giving me SO MUCH encouragement when I had doubts, and jus truly making it happen. - I can’t wait to see where this next March takes us and the wonderful new ladies we are about to meet! And if you’re bummed you didn’t get a ticket - don’t fret! We’ve got some special things coming next Fall too... so don’t miss out, okay? 😉 _____________________ #danipuringtonphotography #engagementphotographer #adventurousengagement #adventurousweddingphotographer #authenticlovemag #adventuroussouls #adventurouslovestories #dirtybootsandmessyhair #LOVEANDWILDHEARTS #belovedstories #engagementphotos #engagement #engagementsession #delightfulstories #truelovestory #staywild #wanderingweddings #photobugcommunity #californiaweddingphotographer #californiaelopementphotographer #destinationweddingphotographer #elopementlove #joshuatreenationalpark #joshuatreeelopement #joshuatreeelopementphotographer #utahelopementphotographer #arizonaweddingphotographer #arizonaelopementphotographer

Making pretty romantic photos vs. harnessing the children we truly are inside. I’ll take the latter all day (SWIPE to see what I mean 👈🏻😂). - But seriously. If you’re a photog, when was the last time you told your couple to just “cut loose” on a merry-go-round? - As photographers, there are the photos we know will always be beautiful and will always look good and bring the gallery together for your clients. But it’s the TRUE personalities of your clients that make each gallery unique and special. Dani and Paul gave me a good reminder of that. - Every couple has their own personality, their own story, and their own way of naturally showing affection for each other. For Dani and Paul, their love language was laughter and being silly. So, we harnessed their energy and I ran with it! - Your clients should always come before nice photos for Instagram. Get to know them. Know who they really are, how they love each other, what they like, what they don’t, and remember that it’s not about YOU when you’re taking their wedding pictures. - Take what you do seriously, and do it EXCELLENTLY. Every couple is special - i mean heck it’s the most special day of their lives!! - so don’t forget to take it seriously too. 😊 - Ok rant over 😁✌🏻 ______________________ #danipuringtonphotography #engagementphotographer #adventurousengagement #adventurousweddingphotographer #authenticlovemag #adventuroussouls #adventurouslovestories #dirtybootsandmessyhair #LOVEANDWILDHEARTS #belovedstories #delightfulstories #truelovestory #staywild #wanderingweddings #photobugcommunity #californiaweddingphotographer #californiaelopementphotographer #destinationweddingphotographer #elopementlove #calamigosranch #calamigosranchwedding #malibuwedding #malibuweddingphotographer #weddinginspo

Stop feeling guilty for taking a day off. ✊🏻 - I used to feel obligated to keep working. Like I wasn’t allowed to rest until I was completely done with my work. But I realized something at the beginning of this year: - The work will NEVER stop. It will always keep coming, and there will always be something else to complete. - Being backed up with work as a wedding photographer can make you feel guilty for having a life outside of editing. Have you ever felt this way too? - Since this Spring, I’ve decided to really combat this. What did I truly love the most, outside of work? - My husband. - My church and relationship with Jesus. - Time with friends. - Time with family. - Music. - And time to myself! - With all of that information (and frankly, our Self Care talk from @alyssabrookephoto at @rootedwrkshp this past March), I decided I needed to slowwwww my roll. - I don’t NEED to post to Instagram every day. I don’t NEED to always be sharing on my stories. I don’t NEED to be editing, blogging, answering emails, or marketing all the time. I realized that what I really need is to actually WANT to do all of those things. And in order to want to do it, REST is essential. - Set to do lists for your work days to get what’s most important done first. Don’t try and accomplish EVERYTHING in just 1 day, because honey let me tell ya, it’s not gonna work out (speaking from experience 😂). - Stop feeling obligated to show your worth through constantly working. What’s most important to you? And when was the last time you intentionally spent time with those people or doing the things you love? - Get on it friend. I challenge you to take a day off this week and spend it intentionally with the people and things you love most. Life’s to short to be only all about work, am I right? 😊 - Give me a HOLLA if you feel this today! 🙌🏻🙌🏻👇🏻 _____________________ #danipuringtonphotography #adventurousweddingphotographer #destinationweddingphotographer #elopementphotography #elopementphotographer #norwayweddingphotographer #norwaywedding #motivationmonday #adventurouselopementphotographer

More fun from Oregon. 🙃 Headed back up to Malibu for an amazing wedding today! And legit, every time I go there, I just wanna find the Hannah Montana house... even though I know it’s fictional. I want it to be real so bad! 😂 - Anyway, stay tuned on the story for BTS as usual! ✨😉 _____________________ #danipuringtonphotography #engagementphotographer #adventurousengagement #adventurousweddingphotographer #authenticlovemag #adventuroussouls #adventurouslovestories #dirtybootsandmessyhair #LOVEANDWILDHEARTS #belovedstories #engagementphotos #engagement #engagementsession #delightfulstories #truelovestory #staywild #wanderingweddings #photobugcommunity #californiaweddingphotographer #californiaelopementphotographer #destinationweddingphotographer #elopementlove #oregonelopementphotographer #washingtonelopementphotographer #pnwphotographer #pnwweddingphotographer #oregonengagementphotographer
Can’t get over these photos from last weekend’s wedding in Philly. LIKE, can we just with how cute they are?! Swipe to see! 😭 - Kate told me right off the bat that Matt might feel awkward in front of the camera. But once I got them moving and dancing and telling each other things for their photos, DANG he opened up so much!! I love watching when that happens - you can’t even tell in their photos that he felt that way at all! - And get this: 9/10 client meetings I have with potential couples say the phrase, “We are so awkward in front of the camera, so apologies in advance if we make your job a little tough!” And honestly, I can’t help but laugh. That’s why it’s MY job to NOT make y’all look awkward! I wouldn’t be doing it correctly if you felt that way, right? - Let me just say this: with me, it’s not just about the pretty photos. I want you guys to have FUN! - My goal is to try turn my shoots into dates. I play music, have you guys tell each other things like funny jokes or things you love about each other. I have you practice for your first dance together, or just twirl around like silly people in love, or run really fast, or bump hips because it’s funny. I want to make this experience not only great for your photos, but FUN and MEMORABLE, so when you look back at your photos, you can feel something! That’s what you want hanging on your wall: memories that associate with a feeling. - Can you relate? Give me a HOLLA if you believe in beautiful memories over beautiful photos!! 👇🏻👇🏻🙌🏻 _____________________ #danipuringtonphotography #engagementphotographer #adventurousengagement #adventurousweddingphotographer #authenticlovemag #adventuroussouls #adventurouslovestories #dirtybootsandmessyhair #LOVEANDWILDHEARTS #belovedstories #delightfulstories #truelovestory #staywild #wanderingweddings #destinationweddingphotographer #elopementlove #phillywedding #eastcoastweddingphotographer #eastcoastwedding #bhldnbride
