I live in Northern California keeping a very laid back care free vibe, which I bring with me to every session.
I enjoy bike riding and weekend's full of traveling. Since I was 7, I have been flying all over the world by myself to some incredible destinations.
I love rich history, food, and belly laughs with my family and friends.
My heart is all about meaningful moments and adventure.. Let me create a space for you too.
XO,
Dara

"I have trusted her to capture all of our special memories and family photos for the past 7 years. She has an impeccable eye for capturing perfect moments and incredible images. Her warmth, smile, and personality bring so much comfort and laughter to each and every photo shoot. She also brings out the absolute best in the little ones - which at times is the most difficult thing to do. She is the best and I feel so much joy and love every time I get to open a new gallery."

"Dara Did such an incredible beach photo session with us. She had amazing wardrobe ideas to coordinate with the scenery she had in mind. She made us feel so relaxed. I have gotten numerous compliments on the pictures. When people ask me who the photographer was, I gladly direct them to Dara‘s Instagram so they can get a sneak peek of all her amazing work. I can’t wait to work with Dara again in the near future."

""Dara's extraordinary talent to see and capture the beauty in every photograph she takes is more than clear in her body of work. But her exceptionalism goes far beyond just pictures. She is warm, kind, funny and goes out of her way to make the whole experience just that, an experience. We almost didn't want the session to end since we were having so much fun. The pictures were amazing and Dara is AMAZING!""
