Danielle Margherite | Wedding + Lifestyle Photographer

hi, i’m danielle (dani) 🫶 i’ve been photographing for about 10 years now: weddings, couples, lifestyle, and lately… a lot more boudoir 🥀 i was born and raised in miami so i naturally lean toward movement, contrast, and a little bit of chaos (iykyk).🔥 i’m always chasing the moment when i’m with my clients. which means you’ll experience me making you do anything overly posed, nothing forced. just letting things unfold and having fun in the process. somewhere along the way i stopped chasing that “picture perfect” moment and that changed everything. i’ll take the nerves, the messiness, the “crazy in love” feeling… and lean into it with you. and you know what? that’s how i’ve gotten hundreds of “perfect” moments for my clients, instead of one. the beauty of it, is that it’s made my job more meaningful:  i create the space, you get to be in it, and i’m there to catch whatever happens. when i’m not working, i’m probably impulsively booking a trip, moving my body, somewhere by the ocean, or home with my dachshund & my lover. and when i am working… i won’t just be documenting your dance floor, i’ll be in it 🤭 so if you’re new here, hi 🤍 this is me. now i want to get to know you. now booking | link in bio 🔗

love what i do, need i say more? 🪩📸

💍 What does your astrology sign say about you as a bride? After shooting so many weddings and being a zodiac girly myself, I feel like this is spot on - but am I? 👇 ✨ Share this with your bridal party and see if they agree!

the higgins 📸 this wedding felt like stepping into old miami glamour in the best possible way. the glam was GLAMMING, the lighting was moody, everyone looked insanely good.. and somehow it all still felt effortless. i haven’t photographed a wedding like this in a minute and i was in heaven the entire day. i always end up approaching every wedding a little differently depending on the energy of the people and the space. I can’t help it, i’m kind of a chameleon when i work in that way. but for this one, i really leaned into that high-end editorial feel. dramatic lighting, flash, movement, old hollywood references mixed with a modern miami edge… it was exactly my thing. and yes… these are the photos that somehow ended up at E11EVEN afterwards because the groom works there 😭 very fitting honestly. still not over this one. vendors ✨ bride and groom: @alyssaxhiggins @dylanxhiggins photography: @dmargherite planner: @eventsbybbg hair + makeup: @beautyby_renata dress: @galialahav suit: @suitsupply production: @dreammachineent @fuegoproductionz florals: @acreationbymario officiant: @weddingsbydanny content: @lizyourcontentamiga video: @acreationfilms cake: @l_rbakehouse ice sculpture: @theicebutcher stationary: @thecardcottage venue: @eastmia

Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms who pour themselves into other cups every single day. 🫶

bearing witness to one of your best friend's getting married hits a little different. 😭 gabriella and khalil's intimate surprise elopement was just as beautiful as i'd imagine it would be. their closest family in attendance, including their baby boy, completely swept me off my feet. what an honor it was to capture this special day 🫶

If she sent this to you, take the hint. 🫶 All she wants for Mother’s Day is some alone time (sorry), a nice dinner, maybe even some time to treat herself, and a little bit of tlc. And if she follows me … she probably also wants to be in photos for once. So a fun family photo session or some sexy photos for her to keep close (or show off to her girlfriends) is always a good idea. Just something to think about. 😉

DMARGHERITE just got a makeover ✨ After 10 years, a lot about my work has changed. I’ve shifted toward something more raw, refined, and deeply felt, and it felt right for my branding to evolve with it. I also wanted to sprinkle in more of my personality - bring something more intentional, more me, to the surface… and now I can finally share it with you. This has been months in the making, with a lot of back and forth. I actually designed the website myself (very Aries of me), and a big thank you to Saffron Avenue and Zai Laffitte for bringing my branding to life. It all finally feels aligned. I hope you’ve noticed the shift already - and you’ll definitely be seeing more of it from here on out. 🌊 🎊 As a thank you, I’m giving back to one of you… Details dropping at 2 PM EST 🤍 stay tuned.

a brand reveal? after being in business for 10 years? groundbreaking. 🤪✨ i’ve been working on something secretly for a loooooong time and it’s finally going public tomorrow (5/2)!! 🫶 you’re gonna wanna stick around for this.

reminiscing on april like i’m flipping through a coffee table book of your most special day. 🥀📖 can’t believe it’s gonna be may.. have some big surprises coming up.
