  • "We loved our maternity shoot with Dee! She made us feel so comfortable and she had a lot of great ideas. Her enthusiasm is intoxicating! It was great to take a moment and just appreciate the amazing journey to parenthood that we are on. Her packages are also really well priced and we got some preview photos and the final photos really quickly as well. Will definitely recommend her and use again in the future."

    Alexandra Hodgson

  • "We could not have asked for a better Photographer! Deana captured our birth story better than we envisioned, with an amazing video & beautiful photos. Memories captured that will last us a lifetime ❤️ We met Deana for the first time when my wife gave birth and she was extremely professional, patient and has a warm personality that immediately made us comfortable during our most intimate moment of birthing our child. The final results were so amazing, as she captured every moment of our story. And what pleased us most, was that during this most intimate moment, it all felt natural. At no point did we feel there was a lens in the room. We will 100% recommend Deana to anyone who would like to capture any special moment."

    Jeremy van Reenen

  • "Absolutely incredible photographer! We have thoroughly enjoyed working with Deana! She gets up close and gets the photos you want to have! Really amazing at what she does!"

    Megan Eksteen

  • "If I could give you 100 stars I would. Your work is amazing but that is just the tip of the iceberg, you work amazingly with kids and I would recommend you one thousand times over. Thank you the amazing experience."
