Dana Romanoff Photography

We absolutely love Dana's photography work. She is very talented and a true professional and artist. The fact that she shoots weddings and we've had the fortune to work with her is incredible. She is a photojournalist, capturing the bride and groom's day as it unfolds and all the intimate moments in between. And she is so down to earth and pleasant to be around. We love referring our brides to Dana! Heather from Calluna Events. More...

Dana has a magnificent eye. We were so privileged to have the chance to work with her. After interviewing many photographers, we knew we had the perfect match when we met Dana. She is so creative and ambitious. She is able to capture emotion and document each moment in accurate and unique ways. With a perfect blend of candid shots, she always seems to be in the right place at the right time. When looking at her product, it is obvious that she take the time to carefully plan shots while seamlessly blending into the wedding background. She is incredibly professional and easy to work with. Coordinating is a breeze if you are local or even planning a destination event like we were. Out of all of our vendors, Dana was the one we did not have to worry about at all. We trusted her eye, her judgement, and her product implicitly and are so happy we made the right decision. We would eagerly recommend her to anyone and hope to be able to use her again for our future events. More...

Dana did an incredible Job on our wedding at C Lazy U Ranch, she took such beautiful pictures and was so dedicated to getting us the perfect shots. She was totally flexible and has been very responsive and helpful -- even now 2 years after the wedding! I would 100% recommend her for your wedding! More...

Dana was an absolute dream come true. I couldn't have asked for a better photographer. Leading up to the wedding, she kept in constant contact with us and my wedding planner. She also made sure that we had all details taken care of for her to travel to Mexico. Because she has traveled extensively around the world, I never once worried about her ability to get around Mexico and to find qualified professionals to work with at the site. Her ability to obtain someone local greatly reduced the price we had to pay if she needed to fly an assistant to Mexico. It is obvious she takes her work very seriously and is also a joy to be around. The night before our wedding, we had a large rehearsal dinner with lots of dancing and weird lighting effects. Despite her and her assistant walking around with a large lamp and a camera, I barely noticed her. I now have wonderful candid pictures that truly capture the excitement and fervor of the evening.

On the day of the wedding, she was incredibly calm the entire time. One unique thing she did, which I don't believe any other photographer would do, is that she set up this incredible shot on an old wooden pier. She noticed the pier the day before the wedding. She spoke to some local fisherman/boatmen she saw out by the pier and arranged my husband and I to take the boat to the pier to have our "first look" at the end of the pier. This resulted in the most special, unique and amazing pictures of our first look. I owe our favorite pictures of our wedding day to her creativity and initiative.

She did a great job capturing the wedding. One piece of advice I have is to make sure you write down every single portrait picture you want taken, including those that you would assume would be taken at a wedding (e.g. pictures with all the bridesmaids/groomsmen individually with the bride/groom). You will not be disappointed in the pictures she makes and she is an absolute pleasure to work with. More...

Dana is incredibly talented. We cannot stop gushing about how wonderful it was to work with her and the quality of our photos. The only reason that I did not give her a 5/5 was because she was quite pricey. She was worth it, though! More...

Dana was the best vendor we chose for our wedding. The photographs were incredibly important for me so I took my time and did my homework on photographers. I'm an amateur photographer and all I wanted was someone that I would trust enough to not make me want to break out my own camera on my wedding day. When I met with Dana, I knew immediately that she was the perfect fit for us. Not only did I kinda want to be her best friend (ha!), I also knew that she was actually going to help me on the day of our wedding. I knew she was going to capture the day and all the details the way that I would've wanted to. She nailed it. Love her, and I can't rave enough about the photos. She's the coooooolest and the photos are exactly what I was dreaming of. Thank you Dana!! More...

Dana was wonderful to work with. She came out to scout our location and had wonderful picture ideas that we had not thought of!
We could not be more pleased with our pictures. People won't stop complementing the pics and I'd like to think that it was Mark and I, but it was Dana's eye that made us look good:) More...

Dana is an extraordinary photographer. She instantly put my husband and I at ease when we met with her in person to show her our wedding venue in advance of our big day. She was charming, genuine, and she had both a great eye for details and an instant ability to envision how our big day would look. On the day of the wedding, she and her amazing assistant had us rolling with laughter. The greatest gift she gave me was the environment for us to be ourselves. Their personality and ability to seemingly disappear (while being right next to you) allowed us to be us and the end result was naturally beautiful and glowing photographs. The best gift of all is that there are no hidden costs. The hundreds of photos are yours to keep. The only problem is that she's way too dang good at what she does and our photo album is going to be too large to actually flip through in a single sitting ;)

Thank you, Dana! You're the second best decision we made that day. (The first being to get married, of course!)

Best,
Christina & Dave More...

Dana did bridal portraits for me prior to the wedding. I wasn't sure that I wanted to do them, but my friends back east encouraged me to do bridal portraits because it's a great way to get beautiful pictures on a more relaxed day, know that the weather worked and then see the photos to know what hair/make-up/visual aspects you might change for the big day. The pictures turned out absolutely incredible and I'm so happy I did them, but honestly, the experience was worth the cost alone. It was SO MUCH FUN to do a dress rehearsal and then go shoot fun photos before the wedding on a day with no pressure - I was smiling for hours after because it was such a blast, without having even seen the photos. I had nothing else to worry about (like I will on the wedding day) and no time commitments so we could catch the light without a schedule concern. Dana was particularly awesome because she scouted and found a spot that worked perfectly for my taste and personality. I didn't really know what I wanted and was not very specific, but knew I wanted something outside and maybe a landscape. Dana found the most incredible place (I'm absolutely sure of it) with a running river and mountain scene that even looked like Virginia, where I'm from, which is pretty much impossible to capture all at the same time in Colorado. She also made me feel so pretty - which made for really fun photos to last a lifetime! More...

This review is being provided by the groom and all I can say is, outstanding!
Dana has a gift that enables her to catch not only the perfect moment but the emotions that are felt as well. I honestly cannot believe how beautiful our pictures came out. Non stop compliments from all our friends and family. Dana brought our destination wedding back to our absentee invites with her photos. She was so easy to work with and she went way above and beyond to capture our memories. I am so glad (and thankful) that we were able to take her to Mexico with us.

The thing that drew us to Dana is her ability to tell a story through images. We wanted to look back on our wedding pictures and see the day unfolding from one picture to the next. Happily we got what we expected and more!
Working with Dana was an absolute pleasure- she showed up to our wedding location early to get a feel for the setting and scout out locations for pictures. She scouted out beautiful on-site and off site locations. She was very professional, yet made everyone feel at ease which made it possible for her to capture the true emotions of the day.
We were very impressed with the turnaround time in receiving our pictures and wedding story video. The results were fantastic- both the portraits and candid shots were beautiful. It made all of our family and friends so happy to get a look at the images so soon after the wedding. I would recommend working with Dana to anyone, it will be one of the best decisions you'll make regarding your wedding day. More...

Dana is an amazing photographer. Because Dana documents in a photojournalistic style, the photographs become more than something pretty to look at; Dana is able to capture personalities, poignant moments, and atmosphere in a way that allows her work to become a visual narrative of your wedding day. She works with the utmost professionalism, passion for her work, and focused energy. Some of my guests commented that they couldn't wait to see the pictures simply based on watching Dana work! Our products turned out beautifully. I highly recommend Dana Romanoff Photography. More...

Dana is a photographer who uses her creative eye and natural affinity with people to capture a true representation of who you are through the pictures. They weren't just photographs of our wedding, they were a glimpse into our personalities. We were equally moved and blown away by the wedding video she created using the photographs. Watching it made us feel as if we were reliving the day and it is a wonderful way to keep the memory alive. As friends and family have commented, they have seen many wedding photos but never any that matched what Dana did. We plan to make a large poster of a photo of us walking in the forest as we feel the setting and mood she captured really sums up who we are as a couple and we would like to hang that as art on our wall. And I guess that is what makes Dana's photography different - she truly is an artist. Highly, highly recommend Dana Romanoff Photography. More...

Dana was phenomenal! Her photos are beautiful, but even before we saw the first print, we knew she was the best. She is a pleasure to work with, is both creative and responsive, and brings out the best in everyone in every shot. We actually hired Dana after a friend sent us a candid from her wedding--we used that photo as our "engagement shot" and hired Dana immediately to shoot our own wedding. We were on a tight budget, but splurged a bit to bring Dana in from Colorado to shoot our wedding in Vermont. She's that good. More...

Dana was amazing! We not only had the wedding photos we dreamed about, but we also have a great new friend. She traveled to our wedding in South America and was super nice with the whole family and our friends, participating in the pre-wedding traditions and gatherings. She speaks perfect Spanish, which was very useful when dealing with our guests.

Dana was on time every time we met and the day of the wedding. She captured all the moments we wanted captured and the spirit of the ceremony and the reception. I would highly recommend her for any wedding!

My aunt was really happy that all the folks from her generation looked so great in the photos! More...

I was really picky about photographers and I couldn't be happier that I went with Dana Romanoff!

I am not exactly the most traditional bride, and I find most wedding photography to be cheesy and generally horrifying. All of the jumping and clearly staged poses most photographers do are a total turn- off for me. I found there are a lot of bad wedding photographers out there! Thus, I had a long search for a photographer.

I happened across Dana's website and I was really impressed. I was looking for someone who would capture the day as it was happening, not monopolize my time, or have me posing like a fool. Dana's documentary style was exactly what I wanted. Unlike so many photographers who claim to be photo journalists, Dana actually is one. Her pictures of Mexico that were featured in National Geographic caught my eye and I knew I had to talk to her.

After interviewing Dana I had no doubts. She was down to earth, and she completely understood what I wanted. I told her that I wanted some family portraits (for my mom) and otherwise I wanted a bunch of candid shots that captured not only me and my husband, but also all our family and friends enjoying the day. I got exactly what I paid for. She was fantastic. Besides the portraits I really never saw her, and her work was stunning. I don't know how she made me look so good and she really captured my guests at their best. Plus, she had the images up on her website in about a week.
In addition to being talented she is such a great person and I walked away hoping to see her again, in a social setting. Most people would not say that about their wedding photographer.
If you want a really great person who is an amazing photographer capturing your day, contact Dana. She is beyond worth it! More...

What more can I say then that Dana Romanoff is the Most Hard Working, Sensitive, Talented woman in all the land. She brings a level of energy and enthusiasm to her work that inspires! ! She was with us from the time we landed in Colorado until we departed-4 days, from morning til night capturing the details and tender moments so we will never forget them.

Dana Romanoff photography offered us both the artistic laid back free lance style photos, the top notch National Geographic Action shots on SKIS, as well as the portrait style that delights our parents and all types. She is a great communicator, a fabulous skier with camera pack baby!, a talented eye for space & light & mood, and so easy going she fits into any situation making it bloom into art!

Thanks to Dana, my wedding with always be with us and our guests in a vivid collaberation for all to enjoy! More...

Dana is a superstar! From the moment she arrived, you could see her snapping photos in her head. And she was seemingly able to capture every moment, every joy, every tear, every hug, every jig. ..The day to me is a blur, but the magic of it all was captured by Dana's incredible eye.

After looking at Dana's photos on her clear website, I knew she had the 'eye' I was looking for. We met with her over lunch and her manner and attitude also inspired us that she would fit in at the wedding very well.

We had a few other conversations via email before the wedding, and at the big day she came dressed appropriately and with all her gear. I took a few minutes to do last minute catchup, and the rest of the day/evening I barely even knew she was there. The wedding day is a big whirlwind, and I don't know how she was able to get all the great shots she did as it seemed like she turned into the size of a mouse and was able to get photos very un-obstrusively for us.

The final output! The retouched photos she produced look so good. There are some very touching moments - Father of the Bride looking out the window with the light hitting his face 'just so,' The groom and his mother dancing both with huge smiles. The look in the bride's eye as she is looking at the groom in the middle of the ceremony just makes my heart melt.

From a nuts and bolts perspective, she was always on time, always friendly, never loud or demanding, and got us the photos up on her website in a very timely manner - in fact she emailed a couple retouched photos right away so we could have them on our honeymoon.

I couldn't recommend Dana any more highly. She is a champ. More...

Dana is fabulous in every way! Her photographs of our wedding capture personalities and emotions so fully, and they communicate so beautifully the dreaminess of the evening -- we feel so lucky to have them. .. and we get so happy when we share the pictures with friends and family! Whether people were talking, laughing, relaxing, or dancing, Dana's work really shows the joy that we and others felt that day and really tells "our story." Her candid shots capture wonderful, fleeting moments and her ideas for posed portraits were fresh, fun, and perfect. Perhaps most importantly, throughout the day, Dana was energetic, funny, and friendly, and showed a true talent for setting her "subjects" (our friends and family) at ease.
