Hi! My name is Danielle Cimino and I'm a natural light digital photographer. I am based out of Sunol/ Livermore, California. I absolutely love my family, a good coffee, baking, traveling the world, and taking pictures of course!
I think it is -so- important to document life's milestones. All too often life flies by and all we have left to look back on are our photographs from our different stages of life. I love being part of of people's special moments; capturing everything from someone's first birthday to their graduation, or perhaps a couple's journey from their engagement to building a family.
I live with husband and our son on a little ranch in the East Bay, CA. When I am not taking pictures, I teach 2nd & 3rd grade, so I am -very- comfortable working with kids especially.
I'm looking forward to getting to know you too, so please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions you may have.
XoXo, Danielle

"Danielle was amazing! I do not feel comfortable in front of a camera but Danielle made it fun and easy. She's captured so many special life events from our wedding day, maternity photos, and baby photos. Danielle has a great eye she can take any location and make it something beautiful. Our wedding was shot in a backyard and you would never know! She then took us to a second location for some truly amazing photos. I will definitely continue to use her for all of life's special moments."

"Danielle Cimino is an artist! Her photography is beautiful. Her eye for detail to capture her subjects to get the best picture, she knows the perfect poses and angles and lighting to capture the essence of her subjects with beautiful backdrops. And she not only gets great pictures of people, she really captures the essence of the event from the setting to the food and subjects i.e. dress, rings, flowers. She thinks of it all. And her pictures are really gorgeous!"

"Danielle took our family photos just before our third child was born, so it was a kind of family / maternity shoot. She was AWESOME. As a teacher in her other life, she totally gets how to interact with kids and took absolutely stunning, yet real, photos of our two sons. She was patient and kind when our 5-year-old threw a little fit, and worked right through it. She captured loving, sweet moments between all of us and I just love how real they are. Beautiful, and not at all fake. I would recommend her 100%"
