Instead of posting a preview to their wedding which we shot Sunday, here is a wedding invitation I designed for Michelle + Mike. I LOVE to design!
It came out sooo cute! We printed it on pearl paper, which is thick and has a nice shimmer to it.

Come back soon for the wedding!

The Russian: Jeremy Rachunok.
His very ambitious wife decided to plan a surprise party for his 30th birthday. Quite the undertaking but as usual, she pulled it off!
A show.
Here’s the invite I designed: I put Jeremy’s face on Elvis! I have way too much fun doing stuff like this!

He had no idea!

So since we got rained out of our shoots last weekend, I needed to post something! Here are some of the Christmas Cards I designed. One thing I’m trying to do this year is not be so much of a perfectionist. I wanted to post these at Christmas but I ran out of time, so normally I wouldn’t post them at all! But I’m posting them anyways-even if it’s just for the archives.
I REALLY love designing. It’s a lot of fun for me. It gives me another outlet for all my creative energy.
Horizontal Post Cards, 2 sided:
1st Baby’s Christmas Card.
A Thank you/Christmas Card.
Vertical 2 sided:
Photo Card:
4 sided cards, front, back, inside:
My sister’s cute fam!
Christmas/New Address Card. We used pics of their new home and address.
These next two are some of my all time fave designs, probably because it was a team effort. They gave me most of the wording and so many ideas that I just brought it to life. And I LOVED how they turned out!! I still can’t figure out if it was more fun for me to design or for them to give them out! They said they got tons of complements and some people even cried. Wow!
This one is a large format 5×7 card so it opens up to 14 in. Pretty neat. This reads front, back and inside.
The one is a regular 5×7 4 sided card.
Did I give enough examples or what?!

"Dana Grant Photography is just AMAZING. Her work is unparalleled and pure genius. If you are looking for a photographer that can capture a moment and not just a pose, this is the photography studio you are looking for. The style is very "Vogue" quality and photojournalistic. She is magic behind the camera and a delight to work with as a person. You will just immediately fall in love. Dana Grant Photography is the WHOLE package and so much more. I highly recommend her for ALL of your photo needs."
Paris and David, July 2009
"Ummmm...I freaking love you. No really...like, can you move in and just make us look that adorable all the time? Dana!!! You are SOOOOOO crazy talented...it hurts my brain. This has made me feel like I am REALLY good at choosing stuff for my wedding."
Jaymi and Andy, December 2010
"I spent the most money on the thing that was very most important to me which was photography. That was more than half my budget. The rest was all my friends and family. (You can get anyone but I wanted the best.)"
Catie and Ben, March 2010
"Dana is not only an amazing photographer, she's also a phenomenal person. And we really did feel like we got a friend as part of the package. She truly is a beautiful person who happens to take equally beautiful pictures!"
Kristen and Chris, October 2009
"Dana is amazing! I wouldn't have wanted anyone else! I am so happy with how everything turned out! We've had the pleasure of being shot by her and being friends with her as well! She handles everything professionally but still manages to be fun. Anyone who hired her would be lucky to have her shooting their wedding!"
Heather and Grayson, April 2009
"Oh my word... we are in love with them! We were scrolling down the page and giggling with delight all the while. Steven just kept saying 'she NAILED it!' hahah. Seriously.. they are perfect... we love them... and we love you too! Thank you sooo much for capturing our day. It went by so fast for us... like a blur... and it's so nice to have amazing pictures that show us everything!"
