Donna's work is breathtaking! She worked my bridal session and Wedding along with Kelli. My husband cried when he saw the pictures, we both felt like they captured every little beautiful moment. I told Donna how much I love professional pictures and I have many many many in my house but after seeing her work I know what I've been paying for all these years, Canvas.... I got MAGIC with Donna! I have never felt more beautiful in my entire life and she was worth EVERY penny!!!! Thank you Donna-Jess

I cannot imagine higher quality pictures of our wedding day than Donna produced. She captured all the important moments in stunning style. She is like magic...I do not remember seeing her take most of the pictures! Donna also assisted my with wearing my veils and bustling my dress and leading my husband and I quickly through the cake cutting ceremony...I would have been lost in those areas if it were not for her friendly guidance. She is fun to work with, and has helped my husband and I create memories that will last a lifetime.

If you're looking for the best, DVB is it. I am a notorious "blinker" and normally look terrible in pictures. Kelli managed to get shots that looked like they belonged in a magazine - just gorgeous (and no blinking, either). I dealt with both Donna and Kelli and they're very prompt responding to any questions/concerns, before AND after the big day, and are just such a pleasure to work with. Check out their galleries - not sure how they do it, but they manage to bring out the absolute best in their subjects. If you want someone to take standard "everyone smile and say cheese" pictures, pick some run-of-the-mill photographer. If you want pictures that have personality, warmth and charm, call DVB. The events manager for our wedding location (who has dealt with just about every vendor in the area) told me she recently hired DVB to do her family portrait and said she wouldn't hire anyone but DVB for her pictures -- a pretty high compliment from someone who deals with wedding vendors for a living. Thanks again, Donna and Kelli!!

Donna is a wonderful photographer that you can trust with everything! My husband and I did not know her personally before our wedding and had only spoken with her over the phone just a few times before we met in the Cayman Islands where we were married. You don't get any more flexible than that! We had called Donna just about one month before our wedding as she came highly recommended by one of the best photographers in Cayman who was already booked. Without hesitation, Donna booked her flight from Savannah, GA, where she's based and met us in Cayman. She worked with the beautiful surroundings and just knew the good shots and her pictures go to show, they came out great! She just gets it. We really have some of the most unique photos in part because of the location, but a lot of it had to do with the amazing woman behind the camera!! We absolutely loved Donna and we highly recommend her!

I don't know how to begin to explain how gorgeous our wedding photos and slideshow are. From the moment we stepped into DVB Photographers studio to the time we left, Donna and Kelli made us feel incredibly comfortable. We were excited they immediately grasped the concept of our rustic farm wedding vision. And not only grasped it but gave us some great ideas! Since they're so helpful, the booking process and picking out albums was so easy. The payment policy is very fair too. We spoke and emailed a few times throughout the engagement and our questions were always answered promptly!The wedding day...I was a little concerned about my then fiancé smiling for pictures. No worries though, Donna had us cracking up the whole time! Her humor and casual way of photographing made us comfortable immediately! Even family pictures weren't chaotic...they were over in no time! We loved having all the bride/groom and family pictures taken before the wedding. We were able to enjoy the reception immediately after the ceremony was over.The day after the wedding there was a picture already posted on dvbphoto.com and I was shocked when the slideshow appeared in my email inbox while on our honeymoon. I had no idea Donna would have them so quickly for us to view (all of our proofs were available 2 weeks after the wedding)! And I couldn't believe what I was seeing...they were the most beautiful pictures ever! Donna is an unbelievable photographer with an 'eye' like no other. Our wedding was small so for all those who weren't able to attend, Donna re-created our wedding day with her pictures for everyone to see. I do have to say...picking out pictures for our album was incredible difficult because they were all great but Donna and Kelli guided us through and offered solutions to get all the pictures we wanted!My husband, family and I have been overly pleased with Donna and her work. We would highly recommend her unique way of capturing true emotion to anyone! DVB photographers is worth every penny and we wouldn't change anything about our experience! Love me some DVB!!!!

After viewing Donna's portfolio I knew I had to have her photograph my destination wedding. When I contacted her, she was extremely flexible and willing to work with my fiance and me to come up with a commission we would be happy with. I didn't get to meet Donna until the day of my wedding, but as soon as I met her, I knew I had made the right choice. I'm a New Yorker, and Donna's energy met, if not surpassed my own, and yet her presence was calming at the same time. We had a blast with Donna at the wedding, and our wedding photos are amazing. Your wedding photos are all you really have left when it's all over. I'm so glad we trusted Donna with taking those photos. She was fabulous!

Donna and her team are nothing short of incredible. Donna photographed both our engagement session and wedding. She is so outgoing, friendly, flexible, and above all, professional. Despite her incredibly busy schedule, as she is the most popular wedding photographer in Savannah and the surrounding area, she was able to work with our busy schedule to accomodate to our needs. However, book well in advance....she's a busy woman! All of our photos turned out amazing and beautifully. She made me and my husband look like models out of a wedding magazine. =) The quality of her work couldn't be any better. She knows the best poses and works with lighting like a pro. The prices may seem a little steep at first, but for the time and quality you will receive, they are completely reasonable. Never compromise on your wedding photos! Donna and my husband are HUGE Buckeyes fans, so she is officially a close friend of ours. (Go Bucks!) I would LOVE for her to photograph our first child someday when the time comes. DVB photographers are an incredible team. Awesome work.

Donna and Kelli were amazing for the wedding. Donna did all of my pictures including my save the dates which I continued to have compliments on throughout the planning process. She gave us so many options for pictures and made my husband and I so comfortable during the sessions. I would highly recommend her as a photographer.

DVB photography did a wonderful job at my wedding!!! Not only were the pictures GORGIOUS, but Kelli and Donna were so easy to work with. They even told me which jewelry and lipstick would look best in the pictures... and helped with the veil! We absolutely loved them!!

All I can say about DVB is WOW! I could not be happier with my choice of hiring them to be my photographers! From the beginning of my planning process I knew the photography was the most important aspect of the wedding for me. They help preserve the memories of the day for a lifetime. I spent a lot of time online researching different photographers and contacted a lot of them in the area, but none of them compared to the beautiful grace of their pictures. Check out her website because her work speaks for itself. I received a wedding slideshow and all of my pictures online the day after the wedding which I really did not expect. Now I'm trying to narrow down my choices for an album and it is extremely difficult because there are so many amazing pictures to choose from. Donna took charge at the wedding and made sure that she got all the shots I wanted along with great shots I never would have thought of. I am so happy I chose to hire Donna and Kelli for my wedding day photography. If I could do it all over again, I would not hesitate for a second to hire DVB photographers for my wedding.

DVB was great to work with. My photographer was Kelli Boyd and she was absolutely professional, creative and easy to work with. We chose her based solely on how much DVB was recommended and for her sparkling peronality :) If you can, go with DVB. You won't be disappointed.

Incredible photography, and a joy to work with before, during, and after the big day itself. Donna is so professional and quick; her goal is to get you amazing wedding photos like you want, but also to get you out of there to be able to enjoy the party you've spent so much time planning! She is efficient, but without sacrificing a bit of quality. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to EVERYONE.

Donna knows her stuff! She did a great job on our wedding during the hottest part of the summer in Charleston. Like I said it was very hot and she did a great job taking our pictures in a timely matter. She was easy to talk to and made us laugh. She was very flexible with the packages we wanted and most of all the pictures turned out great!

Donna is one of the most professional but personal people I have ever met! I was so lucky to have her photograph my wedding and I can not say enough good things about our engagement photos, wedding photos and portraits! Minutes after meeting her, you feel as if you have been friends forever. She is extremely organized and completely in control of everything...which as a bride, you can not ask for more! She captured every emotion and every detail of our wedding day and every time I look at the slideshow set to music, I cry...As a bride, you have so many things going on during your wedding and your photographs are the one thing that can help you relive your special day. Donna and her team are absolutely amazing and I couldn't have asked for more!
