Ali and Nick
"“The pictures are amazing! There are moments captured that will be treasured for our lifetime. And … I LOVE the music you picked for the website … I couldn’t have picked it better myself. Thank you."
Kelly and Shaun
"Thank you so so much for your wonderful work before and during the wedding. We have no doubt that our photos will be amazing! I received many compliments from guests saying that you were all over the place, getting all kinds of different shots. In addition, I think the greatest fact is that for the most part, I actually didn't know you were there! I mean that in the best way because I have the tendency to 'pose' and you may be the first person to actually get some candid shots of me! :-)"

"In planning our wedding, one of our top priorities was to have an amazing photographer. We knew the day would come and go at lightning speed, and we wanted to be sure our photographs would capture its essence. Our hope was that when we looked at the photos in years to come, we would be able to experience the day all over again. Daniel Sheehan was exactly what we were looking for. He was with us all day, and was gracious, patient, attentive, diligent and never obtrusive. He was a pleasure to have as a part of our wedding experience. Daniel took all the photos we asked him to take and hundreds we never would have thought of. He captured the spirit and beauty of the day and its timeline from start to finish. His creativity and skill are unmatched – each photo is remarkable. When we look back at our wedding photographs, our wedding day truly comes to life– we were simply delighted with his work, and treasure the gift of photographs he provided for us."

"Yes indeed, we looked at all the wedding pictures through my computer and Mr.Daniel we couldn't ask for a better photographer. You captured everything, literally. Oh my god, it was such a blessing finding your website. Not only you are a great photographer, you're a wonderful and kind person as well. Mr Daniel, we can't thank you enough. We truly hope in working with you again perhaps, with our first child or something, LOL... Keep in touch. We love your work, you're gifted with such an incredible talent. I (Sugar) can't stop looking at those pictures, it brings back such good memories, you made it such a memorable one."
Much love and Aloha,
Chris and Sugar
"We just wanted to drop you a note to tell you how thrilled we are with the wedding photos!
Since our wedding and reception were held outdoors and the dinner was Italian country style – everyone at big tables under the trees, your documentary style captured the feeling perfectly. All our friends and relatives look so natural and sincerely happy.
We planned our wedding to take place in the late afternoon to capture the beautiful end of summer light and your photographs bring back the mood to us at any time. We especially value your experience as a photo journalist - - you managed to maneuver through both events in such an unobtrusive way, no one was intimidated by the camera, so everyone felt and looked so natural in the photos.
Especially with jumping through the many levels of our terraced garden, you were warm, gregarious, and gracious with our guests and made everyone feel so comfortable. You also had imaginative suggestions for the shots that were posed, from the pre-wedding activities to the final send off.
Thanks again for such valuable and memorable photographs. We will treasure them always."
Best regards,
Robin and David Chell
"Daniel's photography does an amazing job of capturing both the reality, true nature, feeling & story of an event or person, but also does so with artistic appeal and images that are simply compelling to look at. I've enjoyed all of Daniel's photography, covering a wide range of subject areas, but the most important to me (us) is our wedding album. It captured the event so perfectly - for that it is a treasured keepsake for us - but the images are so beautiful and interesting that it has always been worth showing to others as a work of art. Dan is great to work with, too. That's why we've remained friends to this day, after we first met him under business circumstances."

"Daniel Sheehan's photography isn't just journalistic, it's novelistic. He
seems uniquely gifted with the ability to capture character, personality,
and relationship in one telling shot. So, while my memory of our wedding day
is of a beautiful blur, when I look at our photographs-- from the reunion of
old friends at the reception to the ringbearer sprinting down the aisle--
it's like reliving it. We have photographs that don't simply record who was
there and what we all wore, but that tell the entire story of the evening
from beginning to end. And the panoramic shot is both gorgeous and
entertaining-- like a Where's Waldo of your entire community. Soon enough,
all of our friends will have one; everyone who sees our photographs wants to
hire Daniel for their own wedding!"
