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.
Guys/Husbands to be - Your wife will have her perfect day captured just the way she wanted.

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.

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.

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.

We loved having Dana as our photographer. She is a very down to earth and very talented. She really did everything to make sure we had the best pictures possible. We got married in the mountains of Colorado in March and wanted some shots on our skies after the wedding. we had our skies and boots, but I forgot socks, so Dana gave me hers. I really couldn't ask for much 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.

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!

I am very glad we had Dana as our photographer. Her pictures are vivid, and she has the eyes to capture the best moments of the wedding.
Dana is very responsible. She came to the ceremony location several hours before wedding started.
Conclusion: Strongly recommend.

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!

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!

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. The story of my wedding will be forever told through her amazing photos, full of creative landscape and adventuresome moments. On top of all that, she is incredibly professional and charming. 5 stars doesn't say enough!

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.

Dana is an amazing photographer with the ability to be virtually invisible during her time at your event. She is energetic, enthusiastic, has a wonderful personality and is a great person to work with. I highly recommend her services for your special event!

Dana has a rare ability to capture the perfect moment without drawing any attention to herself. She managed to capture the excitement with each picture and the emotion clearly shines through each shot. I would recommend her work to any bride/groom-to-be and cannot speak enough about her professionalism and efforts - the results speak for themselves as we now have the luxury of reliving each moment from our big day through her pictures!

For such a crazy weekend, Dana made the photography element go so smoothly. She captured everything we possibly could have wanted...before, during, and after...with a special touch on the candid moments of the day with family and friends and the special locations we chose. I absolutely love her artistic style that transcended just the "staged" photos that you see so much in wedding photography. A strong recommendation for sure!

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. We could not have asked for more... we highly recommend Dana Romanoff Photography.
