It’s always an honor capturing weddings — and yes, we can officiate them too 💍✨

That means one of us can photograph the day 📸 while the other officiates 🤍 How cool is that?!

We’re grateful to hold space to bind and unify couples with the blessings of whatever that energy is to them 🌿✨

If this sparks ideas or you’re ready to get the ball rolling, Connect with us! 💌
We’d love to chat about how we could be of service, whether that’s photography, officiating, or both 🤍

Photographers usually like to stay behind the camera 📸
Let these pics be proof of that!
These were a few shots Joe (hardly) let me (Dani) take of him before he went to participate in teaching a class on Architectural Photography at Iowa State University!
May have embarrassed him, but it was a really cool opportunity and I am proud of him! 🥲

Cassie and Anthony embraced their children who wanted to join them during their wedding ceremony. I was so touched to see how happy and loving they were to have their babies on stage! As you can imagine, DesLume has been to and shot many weddings and they can get a little stuffy and serious… This family understands what life is all about and that this love and having these special people a part of this major moment didn’t take away from it but actually made it so much more beautiful 🥲

💍 It’s that time of year, y’all! Our books for weddings and engagements are starting to fill up. If you’d like to work with @deslume.photo it would be our honor to capture your big day. We unfortunately can not, at this time, be in multiple places at once. We will work on that, to optimize our services. Does anyone have good suggestions as to where we can get clones made?

More than happy to come to you and assist with holiday photos 🎅 🎄
…just don’t be like @reed_brando ! This little turd, my brother, hid his orange cat, Mochi, and didn’t tell us he had a new kitten till after the photos were taken!
Obviously I felt like that was wrong, cause he is a member of the family, so I ended up photoshopping him in! 🤣

This is the image being used for the Halloween event at @oneplanetearth.dsm
Thanks Akira, for being the model. 🐈‍⬛ 📸
Funny thing about this image is that she caught a whiff of something and turned to look as I called her name. I clicked the camera before knowing she was going to give this look.
Quite honestly, as a good photographer this is part of the magic, being on that shutter at a seconds notice, because so much can happen in an instant that you don’t wanna miss.
This is what makes our wedding/event photography the bomb.com 💣
