“Graphic designer and freelance photographer Danielle Doepke seems to be really good friends with natural light. In fact, she has an incredible ability to use it to beautiful effect in her photographs, whatever genre she’s actually working with. You see, Doepke’s website portfolio exhibits an unusually eclectic, disparate mix of client work in a variety of genres, and yet she succeeds at capturing or effectively emulating the comfortable, friendlier aura and welcoming appeal of natural lighting throughout, even with the more difficult indoor environments common with food photography.

Not only does she manage — Doepke nails her shots every time. Although obviously a generalist, the skill she demonstrates is on par or better with the best in each of the genres she serves. The impressive quality of her food photography is no exception.”

“Commercial images, portraits, events, weddings, and more are what Danielle Doepke has to share with us! Her mission is to take any anxiety out of a session and ensure everyone’s having fun during the shoot.

We love how willing to explore creative composition angles she is, finding ways of capturing her subjects in entirely unexpected ways. And the diverse surroundings Danielle works in, from forests to local parks, all add a distinct mood to her portraits.”
— Peerspace, “11 Best Portrait Photographers in Fort Wayne”

“Danielle Doepke Photography has tackled multiple shoots for one of the largest non-profits in northeast Indiana, often last minute and with very little direction and has nailed it every time.

“Danielle was the perfect choice for our wedding day. I’m not very good being around pictures and make it super awkward but she made every angle she got beautiful! (She also got angles I wouldn’t have even thought of.) She also helped make the picture taking easier by joking around with us.
