Koontz Photography

Photography | Central FL, Florida

I've been a photographer for over 15 years, and every portrait session or wedding is a unique and fun experience that I enjoy being a part of. I love the combination of storytelling through images, as well as capturing the most beautiful portraits of people. Besides the technical skills that I've developed over time; I can relate to a client's needs on multiple levels. I'm a wife, who planned parts of my wedding in an untraditional manner, so I understand the anxiety of planning and organizing a wedding. I also know how hard it can be to find the resources that you need, especially if you are on a budget. Being a mother has taught me things like patience, thinking outside the box, and good organizational skills. Owning my own business has given me years of experience in my field to guarantee each client has a good experience from beginning to end. Plus I'm a huge nerd and I'm a lot of fun, and I promise to make you laugh!

How I cater to Offbeat Brides

If you are looking for someone who is personal, fun, creative, relaxed, experienced, honest, and in love with what they do…. that’s me! I truly appreciate the opportunity to share in capturing moments in time with my clients.

With parents in the event industry, I grew up with a camera in my hands. I joined yearbook in high school a grade before it was normally allowed. Event photography and portraiture just came naturally for me. I launched my business in 2006, at the age of 21, and since then I have enjoyed collaborating with other artists and vendors around the world. I am based in Central Florida but I am available to travel for weddings and events, and have my passport ready to go!

My style is a combination of photojournalism and traditional photography. My goal is to tell your story, so I want my clients to be able to relax and just enjoy the moment. I know how important photographs are, and my goal is to capture the best images that will keep you looking back, and reliving the memories for years to come!

Daniella was an amazing photographer who has such beautiful pictures that people keep asking me for her information! She takes high quality, creative, beautiful pictures that seem like they came out of a magazine (at least that’s what everyone keeps telling me)! Her communication was incredible. She was so friendly, patient, creative, and took such beautiful shots that we are so so so happy with. She was on time, organized, and well prepared. She got some really special shots that I didn’t even think about, and I’m so happy for them...they are some of my favorites. We are so grateful to have had her and her team!

Cover Image

REQUIRED. Select one image to be used as your cover image, which will appear on the category and location pages. Square images work best. Important: Until you add a cover image, your listing will not appear on category or location pages.

Highlighted Images

Please select up to three images to be highlighted in the header of your portfolio. Note that our templates are designed to be responsive, which means that these images will crop differently depending on the viewer's browser size and orientation -- on mobile, images map crop horizontally. On huge desktops, they may crop vertically. That's as intended, although it may result in some headless couples depending on your photo composition.

To remove or change image, hover and click the X.	Highlight Image 3 Third highlighted image in portfolio header. To remove or change image, hover and click the X.

How I cater to Offbeat Brides

This is one of of the most important fields on your vendor listing! Our readers love to feel special and like you understand the issues that are important to them -- this is stuff like LGBTQ inclusivity or gender-neutral contracts. They also love hearing about how offbeat YOU might be. Be sure to mention any of your own quirks as a way to relate to folks.

Client Testimonial

This is the spot to share a short client quote. The formatting of this section looks best with only a few sentences, but feel free to include a link to full reviews.

Promotions or Discounts

Everyone likes a coupon, but our readers LOVE feeling special, and like their specialness matters and gets them a deal. They especially love discounts or coupons specifically for marginalized communities or identities. If you've ever had a particular client you've wanted to work with (say, a transgender bride or a goth couple or a polyamorous triad) this is the spot to offer a discount specifically to those communities!

To delete an image, hover and click the X in the top right corner of the image. Your gallery is limited to 30 images. Images must be smaller than 4 MB.
