After the dress is hung, the flowers are dried, the cake has been eaten and the guests have left, you want to be certain that you will never forget that night; the night that changed your life forever. You won’t regret having a wonderful wedding, but you will regret not having the right person there to capture it.
Check out some of my Faves!
It all started when…
I was kicked out of Art class for being too talkative. No joke. I went to the photography class instead and never looked back. I went on to graduate from Ringling College in Sarasota (couldn’t leave sunny Florida just yet) with a Bachelors in Fine Arts and a minor in sculpture (fun fact: I wanted to be a sci-fi makeup artist making zombies for a living) then moved to Germany for 2 years. During and since, I created my own business and did a little of everything from newborn photography and boudoir (Still LOVE wedding Boudoir ladies!) in order to find my passion. I love capturing laughs, hands being held by their perfect match and all of the details in between!
First you should know…
Dee is one heck of a photographer!
I will cry at your wedding. It’s almost inevitable that it’ll happen at least 4 times.
I will laugh with you, dance with you and probably take a selfie with you (I am an expert at the wobble).
I will not only care about making your wedding the most fun and special day of your life, but I will care about your marriage, because my business isn’t about one special day, it’s about the start of a lifetime.
I will care about your family and friends, because if they’re important to you, they’re important to me too.
But mostly, I will care about you. Whether that’s fluffing your dress, fixing the bowtie, crying during your vows, bringing tissues to your first look, or just being your friend, I will care about you, and your relationship, and your wedding like it’s my own.
And lastly, you should know, that you’ll be leaving with a friend at the end of all of this.
“Dee did such and amazing job making my husband and I feel so comfortable during our ENGAGEMENT shoot, I had no doubt our wedding photos would come out amazing. She delivered such beautiful shots! So glad we choose DGP for our big day.”

Hey, I'm Dee!
I’m a wedding photographer for bubbly, adventurous, heart-centered, fun-seeking couples and creative entrepreneurs. I'm an outdoor lover and adventure seeker, born-and-raised Miami-an, and FIANCE myself & I’m ready to start a marriage with my love, Rodrigo forever by my side.
Me after my own engagement in Macchu Piccu!
I'm most at home getting lost in a new town, am rarely seen without a blanket wrapped around me, feel happiest with friends and a board game, and am completely obsessed with Harry Potter and love stories.
I believe that every couple deserves to have an incredible experience leading up to, and on their wedding day. I LOVE what I do. Still after 8 years of photographing weddings, I cry LITERALLY every time the bride walks down the aisle, every father daughter dance, and definitely every first look.
I believe in real moments. The tiny moments in between the ordinary ones that make an extraordinary life together, an extraordinary love together. The smile the spreads across your face when he whispers why he loves you. The warm embrace and comfort you feel as you cuddle up with sand between your toes. The love you feel when you retell how he proposed to you. The belly laughter that results of being fully engaged in each other’s company. I believe in these moments because I get to live them everyday.
That’s the love I strive to capture with every story I tell: your wonderful & ridiculous adventure. I want to capture how he brushes your hair behind your ears and the way your eyes say I love you when you look at him. I’ll never tell you to “Look this way and say cheese”, but rather get to know you enough to know how to make you laugh. That’s the key to my experience and the reason couples love being a part of the Dee Garone Photography family. It’s authentic, it’s real, it’s timeless, and completely you … because that’s what I do, that’s what I believe in.

Dee was a true professional - prompt, personable and took stunning photos! Planning a wedding was challenging in so many ways but remarkably Dee kept photos off that list.

Ready to start the adventure together?
It is so important to me to have a connection with each and every one of my couples. Dee Garone couples are unique in that they are fun-loving, adventurous, and full of life. And they know and understand that to get fun, joyful, and genuine photos of their love story, we need to have a connection, and a relationship.
I always say I want to show up on your wedding day and feel like a friend or an extra bridesmaid, rather than a hired vendor. Having this connection allows me to capture the genuine moments of your relationship, and break down any walls of awkwardness that come with having a camera in your face!
