“TODAY EVERYTHING EXISTS TO END IN A PHOTOGRAPH.”

Meet Your Future bestie

Hello, hello!

I’m Joanna — a heart-first, dance-anywhere, popcorn-loving romantic with a deep love for meaningful connection and storytelling. I’m a solo travel enthusiast (ask me about hiking an active volcano in Guatemala) and a firm believer that love — real, intentional love — is one of the most powerful forces on Earth.


I approach every wedding with emotion, reverence, and joy. My work is rooted in capturing vulnerability, quiet in-between moments, and celebration that feels entirely your own — not a Pinterest replica.

I create photographs that feel nostalgic, honest, and timeless — images meant to live on your walls, not just your camera roll.


My clients are lovers of intimacy, meaning, and joy. They care less about tradition for tradition’s sake, and more about creating an experience that feels entirely their own. They value story over spectacle and want their wedding day to feel like a celebration of everything they are and everything they’re becoming, together.


If that sounds like you, I’d be so privilaged to document it all.

YOUR STORY DESERVES TO BE TOLD WELL


You want more than nice wedding photos.

You want to feel something.

The way they looked at you when no one else was watching.


The hush before the vows.


The way the light hit the room at exactly the right moment.

That’s what I’m here for.

Testimonials

“Joanna Dass is in a photography league of her own! She is so passionate about her work and has an incredible eye in brilliantly capturing such beautiful, heartfelt moments for any occasion! Before coming across Joanna Dass, we had reached out to over 10+ wedding photographers, I had felt the process of finding a photographer very overwhelming. All of those worries stopped when it came Joanna! She truly cares and has a way with words and great energy to pump you up. You will NOT be disappointed!”

KIND WORDS

“Joanna was everything and even more than we had hoped for from our wedding photographer! We are from the UK so having that distance was a risk. From the beginning we were able to get to know Joanna and for her to get to know us through regular Facetime's and Whatsapping. She was so invested in making our day so special and the excitement she had for us was always just so clear to see. We always felt so confident and relaxed with her and knew she would do an amazing job.”

KIND WORDS

Joanna was our dream wedding photographer! Joanna is organized, professional, quick, talented, personable, creative, fun, and amazing at capturing every angle. She is a perfectionist when it comes to delivering photos, when we got our wedding gallery back we were amazed with how stunning each and every shot was. She truly is the best in the business! Joanna by far exceeded our photography vision. If you are planning a wedding, we cannot recommend her enough - thanks to Joanna we have hundreds of favourite photos to look back on and relive our perfect day

LET'S CREATE MAGIC Together!

Love deserves to be witnessed in its rawest, most beautiful form.

The way your partner looks at you when you’re not watching.

The quiet squeeze of a hand.

The unfiltered joy of your people surrounding you.

My goal is to create photographs that are deeply you — not just styled for Pinterest, but infused with the legacy you're beginning together.
