more about me

I’m a lifestyle and wedding photographer who believes the real magic lives in the in-betweens!

I love warm, documentary-inspired style, and emotion-filled session where it's never stiff or staged. Whether we’re at home, out in nature, or in a place that means the world to you, my goal is simple: to create photographs that feel like you, honest, cozy, and full of life.

Dareka is the absolute GREATEST person ive had the chance to work with. She not only did me a HUGE solid by taking me on last minute. But when i tell you, looking at her work, it honestly felt like i was reliving my wedding all over again. i cried. If youre on the fence about who to choose. working with Dareka is the best choice you will make.

Dareka was the most amazing photographer! she was so sweet and kind. The whole time she was making us laugh and capturing genuine love and emotion between us. I would recommend her a thousand times over.
