get in touch!

Hi there! Thank you so much for stopping by my blog! I love shooting weddings and I love to talk to couples about their upcoming wedding day plans.

It is such an awesome feeling to work with couples and capture those memories that they will cherish the rest of their lives. When I shoot a wedding, I'm not only handing over those images but also a piece of me. I put my heart and soul into every last minute of your wedding day. I try to think about not only the major aspects of the day but the subtle details as well. I want you to be able to look at your wedding pictures 10, 25 and 50 years from now and be able to live that wedding day again through my pictures.

It is extremely important that we connect with one another. I limit the number of weddings I shoot each year because it's important to me that I give each couple the attention they deserve. I'm a busy wife, mommy and photographer so I really want everyone to get the best "Dana" that I have to offer.

If you'd like to set up a phone call or coffee date (even though I'm not a coffee drinker, I'll grab a hot chocolate), I'd love to hang out and chat.

Take a sec and fill out the contact form as best as you can. The more information I have, the better. I can't wait to hear from you!

If you just can't wait to talk to me, I'm always up for a good phone call! You can reach me at 904.635.2276.

It’s not everyday that I get the opportunity to shoot a soon to be bride and then her mother within the same week. Well, that’s what happened when I shot Susan. She is one of my spring bride’s mother and also turned 50 in November, which was the reason for her session. Yes, let me...

My family

Monday, December 14, 2009 2:18 pm

I’ve been a little missing in action lately because things have been pretty busy around the Goodson household. A few weeks ago, my family was on the other side of the camera. A good friend of mine, Michelle Dearing shot our family pictures. Being a photographer means that I’m usually behind the camera and pretty...
