If I could give Dan more stars than 5, I would! He just photographed our engagement photo session (with our 4 young daughters) and our wedding. He was an absolute joy to work with and was really just so much fun! He made us laugh, kept up with the timeline, utilized the lighting and landscape and just kept things flowing really smoothly. I got so many compliments from guests and the wedding party about how great he was. I've only seen a sneak peak of photos, but from what I've seen already, they just look stunning. We will be using Dan for all of our family photos in the future. Highly, highly recommend him! He was the best!!! read more

Dan was an amazing photographer and a great guy. He was very responsive with all the questions I had and was quick to reply. He gave me a few venue ideas, which was used for my family photo's. We had a group of 12 and Dan maybe the shoot not awkward at all. We all enjoyed the creative shoots that Dan took. He took a variety of different group shots and did individuals as well. It's crazy how much he got done in only an hour. I would highly recommend Dan for personal photography's/family photos. If you are looking for someone friendly, professional and overall just a good guy, look no further Dan Rice is your guy. read more

We had my daughter's senior portraits done by Dan last summer. He did a photo shoot with her on the beach in Waldport. She was a little uncomfortable and self-conscious about posing, but he was funny and friendly, and really put her at ease. His work was fantastic, and we ended up with a ton of beautiful pictures. Even my daughter loved the pictures! We couldn't be more please with his work, and we would use his services again in a heartbeat! He was on time, professional, easy to work with and we would recommend him to everyone! His price was excellent for the number of pictures we got and the fact that he had to travel to Waldport for our appointment. read more

Dan is amazing! There's nothing I can really add to his tons of amazing reviews here, but he got fantastic pictures of our family on the beach, even though our kids like to run in 4 directions at once, and we only have 3 kids! He's personable and has a great artistic eye that helps create eye-popping photos. Thank you Dan - we'll hopefully see you for another shoot next year! read more

Spectacular local to Cannon Beach area photographer! We did family pictures with him in September and the whole process was a breeze. He's very responsive to inquiries along the way and had great ideas for locations. The day of the shoot he was early and so easy to work with. He gave helpful directions but also captured plenty of candid moments with the family. With 2 young children it can be hard to get them smiling authentically but he did a great job of capturing their personalities and we got numerous great pictures of our whole family as well. The picture turn around time was great and we couldn't be happier with the final results! We would highly recommend him and his services! read more

A friend of ours recommended Dan. We looked over his work and just fell in love with his photos and his use of lighting that just makes the photos eye-catching. We met up with him and booked him soon after. He had done beautiful work on our engagement and wedding photos. We had the wedding on a military base which had time restrictions. Dan was accommodating in reducing the time we needed him since we could not use him for the full 8 hours. Our Comic-Con themed wedding had Dan running around to get a shot of our guests in costume. He was able to catch many candid shots which we loved. Book Dan - you will not regret it. read more

If I could give more than 5 stars I would. He is absolutely the most amazing photographer. My husband is not exactly the easiest person to get to take photos, but Dan was up to the challenge. He had him joking and laughing and actually captured the love that we have between us, and for my restricted emotion, attorney husband, that is quite a feat! He was kind and went completely above and beyond. He worked with our videographer amazingly well and I just can't say enough good things about him! Kori read more

Dan was amazing!!!! He was always quick to respond to any questions or concerns. He was so nice & took the most amazing elopement photos. In the chaos of everything going on right now he was so great to work with. The whole family talked about how awesome he was to deal with our unorganized mess when we forgot our list of order to take photos. I would recommend to anyone needing photos done to contact him! read more

From the moment I saw Dan's work I knew I wanted him to do our wedding. He didn't disappoint! He's professional, reliable, brings a sense of humor, and he's SUPER TALENTED! He has a vision, he has an artistic eye which for us was his biggest draw. We couldn't be happier with our wedding gallery. Thank you, Dan! I'm recommending you to all of Yelp community and anybody else I come across that's in need of a photographer. read more

Dan Rice Photography - 5-28-2017 The Colony D'Angelo Wedding - Event Photography Near Me

Dan's work is breathtakingly gorgeous and I'm sooooo happy he was our photographer! We met Dan at the Del Mar Bridal Bazaar. We talked to every single photographer there, and Dan was by far the best! Both my fiance and I agreed when we first saw Dan's booth, his photos were unlike all the others. Vibrant colors, beautiful landscapes, perfect framing - his work totally stood out above the rest. While talking to him Dan was incredibly friendly, and he even knew a trick for taking photos of dogs (instead of saying their name, make a weird sound)! Shortly after the Bridal Bazaar we set up a meeting at Starbucks. He answered all of our questions and showed us example wedding albums. Bonus for us: He's also read the Lord of the Rings books, which was perfect for our Middle Earth wedding! Engagement Photos = Dan recommended a location that fit our checklist - we scouted it out and loved it. He was very easy to work with during the shoot. His positioning/posing instructions were easy to follow, which was very important because we know nothing! We brought along our dog (and one of my bridesmaids to help with the dog) and Dan knew exactly what to do to get great photos with our pupper. Unfortunately we got kicked out of the park because it was closing sooner than expected; I wish the shoot could've gone on longer but Dan was still able to get amazing photos. Wedding Day = Dan hadn't been to the venue before so he arrived early to scout it out. Dan and his second shooter were able to capture a variety of photos, all of them beautiful. Portraits, details, action shots, guests' happy faces, even food photos - so many gorgeous photos to choose from. There are some split-second shots that I am amazed he was able to capture AND they came out beautiful! Dan is very responsive via email and super easy to communicate with! He delivered everything on time (wedding photos took about 7.5 weeks). And his prices are incredibly reasonable! Professional, friendly, hard-working, enthusiastic - every positive adjective applies to him. I highly, highly recommend him!!! read more

Dan is an awesome photographer. We met him at Bridal Bazaar. We chose him to do our engagement and wedding photos from a huge stack of photographers. Dan is prompt, polite, and knows what he is doing. The prices are very competitive for what you are getting and quality is nothing less than amazing. Dan had an assistant on wedding day with him Valerie, she was also awesome and took care of all groomsman photos before the wedding. The turn around time for the pictures was very reasonable as well. A couple weeks for the engagment photos and a little less than a month for the wedding photos. We needed a couple photos earlier and he was able to get them to us right away. Highly recommend Dan!! read more

I fell in love with Dans photos when I first saw them. He is the guy you want to hire if you are into capturing natural light, action and emotions. His style is modern not posed traditional type that others do. For our engagement photos we were able to go to 2 different locations & Dan was all about it! We showed up to Dog Beach on a high tide day and he didn't care! He got all wet did whatever it took to take amazing pictures! Our wedding is in a few weeks so i will leave a review then. Absolutely loved my engagement photos. read more

Dan Rice Photography - Event Photography Near Me

We met Dan at the Bridal Bizarre and was immediately blown away by his work! I met several photographers, but Dan stood out amongst the rest with his work and personable dameanor! We decided to hire Dan and I must say it was one of the best decisions we made!!! He was so much fun during shooting. He made me and my husband so comfortable that we almost forgot there was camera following us. Dan was open to all of our ideas and poses we wanted to take and when we were unsure he directed us! Unfortunately, Mother Nature didn't quite work in our favor the day of our wedding and it started to rain, but Dan and his team didn't skip a beat! They continued to snap away and capture all the beautiful moments! I cannot thank his team enough! I received my photos today and am so in LOVE with them all. Dan's work is truly beautiful. If you're looking for a photographer or photography team for your wedding or any occasion; Dan Rice Photography is highly recommended!! Thank you again! Rachel & Joel Martinez read more

Dan was wonderful in photographing our wedding! From start to finish he was professional, personable, and flexible! He went above and beyond to help our day be so special (even provided batteries when someone forgot to put them in a set of lights!). When we came down to a time crunch, he adjusted thoughtfully. We've had several family members and friends comment on how great of a person was, being friendly and ready any shot he could without being overly intrusive. We would love to rehire Dan in any future photo sessions we have and highly recommend him! read more

Loved working with Dan. Extremely professional and very knowledgeable of the best photo venues in Portland. He was accommodating of our requests and had a very quick turnaround. Quality of the photos can't be beat! read more

Dan is an incredible photographer! He is creative, personable, and easy to communicate with. When my husband and I viewed his website, we both knew he was the right photographer for us! He reached out several weeks before our wedding to check in and to get some day-of information. Dan was extremely organized and easy to work with throughout the entire process. Several guests commented on his friendliness! We loved our engagement photos and recently viewed our wedding sneak-peak. We highly recommend Dan Rice Photography! read more

Dan was fantastic. Everything went really smoothly. He had great communication from the start, and was very professional, organized, and delivered our photo's in the time frame as promised. We did a photo shoot at Jenkins Estate in Beaverton, and Cooper Mountain Nature Park. His photo's came out awesome! He has a really artistic sense, and it shows in the final photo's that were delivered. I highly recommend Dan, you won't be disappointed. read more

Dan did such an amazing job capturing my family and my kids personalities in our photos. The booking and planning was done easily and Dan is so easy to communicate with. read more

5 Stars does not seem enough to give Dan Rice Photography! After doing extensive research on Oregon photographers our family of 5 traveled from So Cal. and chose a Family photo session with Dan at Cannon Beach. From the very first communication Dan always kept in touch and was very flexible and accommodating in terms of selecting a photo day with some Oregon sunshine which can be tricky this time of the year. Dan was engaging, patient, kind and always kept his professional eye open for just the right photo spot to capture our photos and spent about 2.5 hours taking individual photos of my 3 kids, family group photos and sibling photos. Dan also took extra time to photograph my son who is a Senior in High School in his graduation suit so that we could share with family. When I needed an advance photo of my son/family for a school event, Dan responded quickly land loaded several in a Gallery so I could use, I mean if that's not accommodating then I don't know what is! If you value family photos as much as we do, then you can easily put your trust in Dan to capture your precious moment in photos. One last note.. Thanks to all the Yelpers who left comments, as they really got it right on Dan Rice Photography! read more

Let me start off by saying that Dan is the best photographer. He is super patient and knows what he's doing. I was happy with my engagement pictures and we received a lot of compliments. If you want someone who is patient and passionate about his job book him. Also his prices are good compare to other photographers. Book him for your wedding you won't regret it. read more

I wholeheartedly recommend working with Dan! Not only is very skilled in taking beautiful photos, his pricing significantly better than what I found elsewhere! During our engagement and wedding photos, he was communicative, efficient, patient, understanding, and creative! We absolutely love the photos we received and have heard compliment after compliment from our friends, which is just a really nice added bonus. The important part is we love them, and that's because Dan really heard us. I had more than a couple ideas on photos (to say the least), and not only did Dan not have a problem with it, he encouraged it. I feel like our photos really look like us without being overdone in editing. Dan was also just a great personality to have on our wedding day. When I freaked out because crickets (crickets!!!) were jumping up my dress and I wanted out of that location NOW, he was calm and able to adjust without a problem. Dan is a phenomenal value for his skills. We can't recommend him enough! read more

We opted to have separate dates/events - wedding and celebration. We really wanted Dan to do both events, which he agreed. We love every photo he took - Dan is amazing and so great to work with. He wanted to make sure we got every shot we wanted. Hiring Dan was the best decision we made. Thank again Dan! read more

Dan did the photography for our engagement photos and wedding, and we couldn't be happier with the results! He is great to work with and his photos are stunning. We have gotten so many compliments on our pictures from both shoots. If you want a stress-free photographer who is one of the best in the biz, Dan is your man! read more

Dan is such an amazing photographer and truly captured every special moment for us on our wedding day! all the photos turned out perfect and we couldnt be happier. he is really easy and nice to work with and makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera. we will definately be referring him to all our friends and family because he is really the best photographer in town! thanks again dan! read more

I can't say enough about Dan - he was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. We first met Dan to chat about his photography style, and to see if he would be a good fit for us for our March 25, 2017 wedding. Dan was efficient in getting back to us and setting up a time to meet and get to know each other. As soon as we met Dan, we knew he would be a great fit for our wedding. We had a big bridal party - 17 people, 4 flower girls, and 3 dogs - and Dan was confident that it would not be a problem to photograph a party of this size. We did an engagement session with him and the photos came out stunning (we have not ordered prints yet because we wanted to order them along with our wedding photos, but we plan to order them as soon as we see our wedding photos). Wedding day was chaotic, as most weddings are, but Dan and Jo (Dan's second photographer) were cool as cucumbers. Prior to the wedding, we sent Dan a list of specific photos we wanted to capture throughout the day. He was able to get all of those shots and many more. Dan is friendly, he listens to any requests, and he handles the drunk and rowdy guests with grace (and we had a few of those). Immediately following the ceremony, our families were difficult to wrangle, yet Dan remained patient the entire time (I can't imagine how frustrating it is to deal with slow-moving people when you're on a time crunch). Our wedding was just a couple weeks ago so we have not gotten our photos back, but I am confident that they will be absolutely beautiful. If you are smart, you will choose Dan for all of your wedding photography needs!!!! read more

I met Dan at a Bridal Show and instantly fell in love with his photos. What really intrigued me was the creativity of his albums and his use of putting images on a wooden canvas. He's very professional and responsive. Three friends of ours used or will be using Dan for their weddings. Thank you Dan! read more

Dan was great! Found him at the Bridal Bazaar and loved his sunset pictures. That was one of the main reasons I went with him. And I'm glad I did.. He did not disappoint! Loved our sunset pictures from the engagement session to the wedding day. He is friendly and very professional. He answered all my emails promptly. And pictures were ready within the timeframe that he told me. Overall, a great experience and I loved our pictures. He is very easy to work with and I would definitely refer him to anyone. read more

Dan Rice was just amazing! He made my husband and I feel so comfortable while being photographed during our engagement photos and our wedding day. We got so many compliments on every single shot, especially the night ones, which I know I was being a typical "picky" bride at first and was the one thing I was looking for when searching for a photographer. All of his candid shots of our wedding guest looked amazing and really captured all the fun they had. I will most definitely recommend him to everyone I know because thanks to him, we were able to capture every moment of our day, and it was a pleasure to have worked with him. read more

I met Dan at one of those big bridal shows. First off he was extremely polite and not all all pushy like all the other vendors. My fiancé and I booked a meeting with him and signed the contract on that same day! Dan just sent over our engagement pictures (really quick turn around) and they are beyond amazing! I was nervous about not knowing what to do but he directs and helps along the way. I cannot wait for our wedding just to see the pictures! Check out his website. Honestly his pictures speak for themselves! read more

My husband and I loved Dan! I found Dan at a bridal show and I loved his pictures and how he printed them on wood rather than boring canvas prints. He was fun to work with, was very professional and did not ever seem annoyed with our boisterous groomsmen or family members. It was very important to me that we did not have a bunch of staged photos from our wedding and Dan was great at capturing all moments. He's easy going demeanor made it easy for me to relax when the pictures were taken of us. We also loved how he doesn't need all the bells and whistles to get a good photo and all of our photos were natural and real rather than the over use of bright lights and extra filters. We recommend Dan to anyone we know! read more

Dan is PHENOMENAL!!! My husband met him at one of the booths at the Bridal Bazaar. He came home and shared Dan's website with me and I knew we had to meet with him. He is so personable and easy to work with! Dan shot our wedding, but first had an engagement session with us. He even met us at the venue a few weeks before the wedding to scope out the area and get an idea of what photos we wanted to capture. He is extremely professional and organized! With the craziness of the big day, we had full trust that Dan would guide us through our day and meet all of our requests. Within 4 weeks, he had a sneak peek album available for viewing and the photos are spectacular! BOOK HIM before someone else beats you to it! Best wedding investment! read more

We couldn't be happier to have hired Dan for our wedding. He was so easy to work with and was a huge attribute to why our big day ran so smoothly. We would highly recommend him to others! read more

Dan does amazing work! We met him at a bridal booth and loved his use of natural light and scenery and booked him for our wedding. He is very professional, and we LOVED the results of our engagement and wedding shoots.

He also did a great job working with our schedules for the engagement shoot. He is personable, professional and a calming presence on a busy wedding day-- plus I really feel he takes pride in his work and it shows! We get tons of complements on all his photos! His prices seem VERY reasonable and you get amazing results!! read more
