About

We’re Erin and Peter and we started this company in 2012. Since then we’ve quit our jobs and photographed 275+ weddings all over the east coast (but we’re willing to travel anywhere!) and we couldn’t love it more!

Our photography style is cozy, natural and organic, and we love to focus on the in-between moments and the genuine emotions. We don’t pose people but instead direct them to do things that will bring out their real personalities and reactions which help us to get the most authentic photos. We love couples who are fun and adventurous and laugh a lot, and we love weddings that are unique and full of personal details. In our free time you can usually find us on a day trip, planning our next Disney trip, enjoying live music, playing with our cats Daphne & Dean (get it now?!) or biking.

If you'd like more information about us and our pricing, please include your email address in your inquiry - thank you and we can't wait to hear from you!

Hire erin and peter!

Erin and Peter were truly a dream come true for my husband and I. Not that you can tell from the pictures, but we are both deeply uncomfortable being photographed. If that resonates with you, HIRE ERIN AND PETER! From the first moment of our engagement photos, they were right there to guide us through the process and help us feel comfortable. On the day itself, Erin and Peter were incredibly supportive, organized, and full of warmth. People at the wedding could not stop remarking about how organized and thoughtful they both were. They went above and beyond the entire day to capture the wedding flawlessly. The photographs themselves are elegant and timeless, plus there’s a ton of them! I’m not joking when I say I look through the gallery every single day and think so fondly of the incredible memories they were able to capture. Thank you both from the bottom of our hearts for capturing our special day!

Run to book Erin and Peter!

Erin and Peter from Daphne and Dean Photography are two of the nicest people you could imagine. From the phone calls and video calls, to meeting them in person for our engagement session, we felt comfortable from the start. My husband and I certainly aren't the most graceful couple! We had no idea how to pose, didn't know what to do with ours bodies and faces, etc. Erin and Peter made it so easy! They showed us how to pose, but each pose was so natural... not staged and stiff. We did our engagement session in a forest on one of the hottest and muggiest days of the summer. At the end of the session, we did a fun shoot where we stood in the river! They made everything so easy and fun. When we got the engagement session photos back, we were absolutely blown away! We loved how natural all of the photos looked. Jumping to our wedding day, we felt even more comfortable now being in front of the camera. They took amazing close up shots of the rings, the guy's watches, etc. At the end of the night, Peter was dancing along with us... everybody loved how kind and fun they were! Erin and Peter have such a talent. They are so very kind, accommodating and we couldn't be happier. Please don't second guess, book Daphne and Dean Photography now! Thanks Erin and Peter! - Nicole and Nick

Perfect for our theme wedding!

Not a lot of photographers would have embraced a hobbit-themed wedding but Daphne and Dean Photography completely nailed it! Aside from being some of the sweetest, coolest people we’ve ever met, they are also insanely talented AND so amazingly dedicated- they even drove all the way up to MA to take our engagement photos! And then once the wedding day came and brought with it a crazy storm, they made sure that we still got some amazing photos outside, which they knew we dearly wanted. We can’t praise them enough!! You can’t find better photographers (or people) than them!!
