Wedding Professional Since 2014
Hello! I'm Daryll. I'm a published wedding and portrait photographer and videographer. I'm based out of Richmond, Virginia, but travel all along the east coast and even abroad to document weddings.
I'm easy going, creative, sometimes sarcastic, and I like to have fun when shooting.
I believe that marriage is the most powerful bond in the universe; holy, and everlasting. My approach to documenting your wedding is simple - I tell your story through timeless and elegant imagery that will remind you, and future generations of the joy had by you and your guests on this amazing day.
Photography is my outlet of expression, and serves my passion of exploring the world, knowing its people, and creating.
Aside from cameras, I love traveling, drawing, making music, gaming, and watching videos on tiny homes, and hope to build my own in the near future!

Not Just a Photographer
My goal in working with you is to not just take your pictures or video, but to be a supportive friend; someone you can count on in such an important time of your life.
To this end, I keep in touch regularly leading up to your wedding day, and when we do our engagement shoot, we're going to have fun. We'll take some great pictures, explore, and spend plenty of time getting to know each other.
You need to be comfortable with me, so we can capture your most intimate moments authentically.
Love is Love
Your love deserves to be captured authentically and respectfully, regardless of your sexual orientation, gender identity, ethnicity, or religious and political beliefs.
It's to this end that I've dedicated myself to being an ally of all lovers, and have taken the time to educate myself, empathize, and create a business that is inclusive and understanding to all people.
