D Park Photography

I can’t say enough good things about D. Park Photography! My fiancé and I wanted to have a Disneyland Engagement session, and after seeing a few of their photos pop up on Google Images, we fell in love with D. Park Photography’s style and creativity.
Right from the start, they were absolutely wonderful to work with. Drexelle is the sweetest and most genuine vendor I’ve ever had the pleasure of speaking with. It is obvious when speaking with her how much she and the D. Park Photography team love what they do. The team is also very professional knowledgeable in their field. I could explain just slightly what I was envisioning for our photos and Drexelle would send back a suggested timeline with photo locations, and I would be exactly as I had imagined. A few days before our engagement shoot, Drexelle sent us a confirmation email with tips and notes of things to bring and what to expect. Drexelle was also patient with my many questions and timely with her emails, which is always a plus!
On the day of the shoot, Cara and Russell were an absolute joy to work with. Having your pictures taking professionally can be nerve-​wracking if you’ve never done it before, and I definitely fell into that camp. But Cara and Russell were so personable and fun that it made being in front of the camera much easier and relaxing. They’d give us direction and suggestions on how we should pose for the photos, and in the end, it just felt like second nature.
Two days after our engagement shoot, we received our sneak peek photo. We were told the rest of the photos would come 4 – 6 weeks after that, but received them only after 2.5 weeks! It was a great turnaround time and super exciting to have the photos come in. All the photos are just gorgeous and we absolutely love them. The whole experience was amazing; you can’t go wrong with D. Park Photography!

We were fortunate to have the D Park family photograph our wedding! This time around we got to work with Russel and Cara and they were able to live up to the standards of our engagement photos! We loved their personalities as did our family and friends and of course the photos turned out amazing! When my MUAH artist (and family friend) told us how she’s never been sent a schedule for the photos my (now) husband and I were surprised. We had thought that this was standard procedure since Drexelle had a schedule set up for us when we did our engagement photos. She was just so impressed with the level of professionalism from the D Park family. When my mom saw the photos she loved the candids that they got of our family reacting to our vows and from the money dance. Your wedding day is stressful enough, but D Park allowed me to cross one thing off my list for the day and was one of the best decisions that I could have made for my wedding! I’ll be able to cherish these photos for a lifetime :)

Thank you Unilocal for helping us find the most amazing photographers for our wedding! David and Drexelle are so incredibly talented and easy to work with. We originally met with Drexelle and instantly connected with her. Looking at their portfolio blew us away. They captured emotions, beauty, and did it in the most natural way which was everything we wanted our photos to have. We didn’t hesitate in hiring them and we are SO happy we did! They were so helpful with everything along the way! They monitored the weather, provided us with sample timelines and helped us create ours, along with easing our feelings towards posing for photos. They were professional, informative, and just a pleasure to work with. They even handled our crazy families and getting them organized for photos… no small task! I truly can’t say enough wonderful things about DPark Photography besides that we feel like we gained friends, have them most amazing photos to memorialize the day, and are beyond grateful for them assisting in making this day effortless and easy! Hire them immediately!

D Park is absolutely the best choice my husband and I made for photography. From start to finish, they have been the most open, fun, personable, professional and organized group I have ever worked with. They are absolutely worth every penny.
We first heard of D. Park during our friend’s wedding, where they were the photographers. The people that were sitting at our table were also going to use them in a few months, and one of my good friends who happen to be a groomsmen at the wedding told us to check them out as well. We checked out their website and loved how vibrate their pictures were so reached out to them. We absolutely loved them, but knew they were out of our budget. However, after much discussion, we increased our budget so we can have them as our photographers and like i said in the first sentence. The BEST choice.
We wanted to do something different for our engagement shoot and they had no hesitation, they actually embraced our ideas and gave us their thoughts, which was great. Our photographers were Russell and Cara, but during our session, we met David and Drexelle and they helped with our session as well which was super exciting! Everyone was so kind, fun and easy going. My husband and I are goofy types and had no intentions of doing sexy pictures (which looks great but for not us)… which Cara and Russell worked with us and didn’t make us do anything we were uncomfortable with. We loved the way our pictures turned out and all our friends and family loved them.
Before the wedding, they kept in touch and created a timeline that they sent to ALL my other vendors so we would all be on the same page… it was AMAZING. My coordinator at our wedding ceremony was absolutely floored by their organization and had to point out to us how great D. Park were.
On the day of the wedding, Russel and Cara were on time and was such a breeze to work with. They weren’t in the way and now looking at our pictures, I swear with all the angles, it was like there were more then 2 photographers. When we did our romantics, they remember how goofy we are and they told us its ok to smile, which was nice. It was fun and didn’t feel like work. They are the best and we have NO complaints. We love them! Our pictures turned out great ad they are on point with timelines and answering emails. You will not go wrong with D.Park.

words cannot explain how amazing this group of individuals are. they made my wedding so memorable and i couldn’t have asked for more. all my bridesmaids had nothing but great things to say about them too. we had david and cara doing the photography and we had loyd and russell doing the videography. that was definitely the dream team. they made us feel so comfortable and we acted so natural as if we knew them for years. i’d recommend D. Park for ANY of your photography/​videography needs. thanks for everything guys!

We were considering them for our engagement and wedding, so it is disappointing when their service doesn’t match their quality of work. After receiving an automatic message asking for our story and details of the wedding, we are going into our 3^rd week with no response. I put time into writing that story too. I followed up, worried that they missed our message but still nothing. They’ve lost our business at this point and I won’t be recommending them to our friends who are also getting married these next couple of years.

Don’t look any further. The pictures speak for themselves. D. park has captured the most memorable moments in our family. A cousins engagement then marriage shoot, to my sisters maternity and now our family shoot. My only regret is not knowing of D. Park when my husband and I tied the knot. Drexelle is wonderful. She puts all your worries and insecurities to rest. Picture after picture I’m amazed.

As a vendor myself, I can appreciate another vendor who is professional and responsive. I worked with D Park Photography on a wedding this August and I am a fan of their work! They really capture moments and emotions that move you. The greatest part was that I received a link to the photos in my inbox without having to reach out. Very talented and easy to work with!

WOW i don’t even know where to begin!
Well before my husband proposed, i stalked wedding blogs and came across D.Park. I thought to myself, the day I get married, these people have to be there to capture it. By a stroke of luck, my husband actually knew who they were so after booking our venue, D. Park was the very next vendor we booked… we didn’t even talk to any other photographers.
From beginning to end, David and Drexelle were a dream to work with. We told them our vision for the engagement photos and our special day and they were right on board. What I love most about them is they’re extremely personable and really make the day all about you. Before shooting the wedding, they send you an extremely comprehensive questionnaire that asks about you as a couple, special things you want to capture the day of, names of your bridal party, etc. They really make the day all about YOU!
Our engagement photos were taken in Downtown LA at the Walt Disney Concert Hall and Grand Park. I cannot believe how much they made us look like supermodels. The whole session was so much fun as they made us laugh the entire time! The photos were all so amazing that we had a really difficult time choosing photos for our save the dates… so much so that we actually had two versions.
Our wedding was at the San Antonio Catholic Church and Richard Nixon Library. Dave and Drex arrived on time and quickly split up between my husband and I to capture us getting ready. They truly captured how much fun we were having with our bridal party in the most natural yet glamorous day. They were able to capture the unique personality of every person and the work that we put into all the details. We just received our wedding photos and all i can say is WOW. My mom couldn’t stop screaming, i keep getting notifications of likes on facebook and instagram, friends keep texting me about how amazing the photos are… just omg. guys. why haven’t you booked them yet? They’re just that amazing.
Whatever vision you have in your head, Dave and Drexelle make it happen… they make it better! And on top of them, you get great friends to boot :)
Here is the link to our wedding photos. At the bottom of the page is a link to our engagement photos:

Thank you David and Jimmy for capturing not just the best day of my live but to make us look mighty fine I should’ve written this review when we we got our engagement photos. To say that I am absolutely in love with all the photos will be an understatement.
My husband and I worked with a number of vendors for our wedding and DPark Photography is by far the sweetest and most caring vendor ever, EVER! Unfortunately, I was not lucky enough to have Drexelle capture my special day, but I was able to talk with her regarding my wedding. Must say she’s a beautiful person inside and out XOXO. Now I can’t wait to get preggo and book DPark for my paternity shoot! Excited!!!

Russell and Cara are hands-​down the top notch wedding photographers who are talented, passionate, fun and take good care of the clients. Even better: they are punctual, timely, and easy to work with. We initially found Russell’s work after scouring the web for wedding photographs at our exact venue. — Our wedding venue was unique (as it has 100% artificial lighting) so it was crucial for us to find photographers with proven experience at this place.
There are a lot of reasons why we like this talented couple so much, but I want to highlight three, which I think are important for couples to know:
1. Style. Russell and Cara’s photos are modern and elegant. They are pros w/​catching the moment and details. Each photo is like telling a story, making you feel you are experiencing those moments. Moreover, the couple is professional and great throughout the whole process of providing guidance on location, and natural yet flattering poses. The quality of their photos stands out.
2. Professional. They are extremely experienced in coping with unexpected logistics /​situations on our wedding day to make sure these nuances won’t affect your photo quality. There are tons of unexpected situations that may happen, and there ARE (unfortunately) unplanned situations. Having photographers who are skillful and experienced, and can always return stunning photos regardless of the scenarios is of ultimate importance.
3. Energetic and fun to work with. This dynamic couple was very energetic, professional during our engagement photo session and on the busy wedding day. They did their best catching every moment of our wedding. Moreover, they communicated with us in advance and on the wedding day to ensure they were on the same page about the timeline, about the order of the shooting, and style. Russell/​Cara bring such great energy and we all had so much fun taking pictures with them. We look forward to working with them again for any other big life moments.
We highly recommend Russell and Cara to anyone. My husband and I were so lucky to have had them photograph our special day!

I love love love Drexelle and David better known as D. Park! We just had an engagement session with them not to long ago and both myself and my fiancé, Josh were very impress by how professional and personable they both were. I had a consultation with Drexelle over the phone before hiring them and she made me feel so comfortable with asking questions and was very informative. When I would email her, she was very responsive via text and email. That is a plus for me as I ran into alot of «highly rated» vendors that were terrible at responding in a timely manner.
They are very reasonable priced for the high quality work and images they produce.
We had so many compliments from our engagement photos alone. I can’t wait to work with them again on our wedding day.
Highlights:
* Great Price
* Great Work
* Very Responsive
* Excellent Customer Service
* Professional
* Personable
* Artistic
* Gives great directions in posing or not posing (if needed)
* Positive Energy and Supportive (if you care)
I would highly recommend them to friends and family!!!
Thank you D. Park!

I knew I had to have DPARK photography to capture our special day. It was such a relief when we booked them. I knew we were in good hands and that there was at least our photos that we could count on would be perfect. David and Drexelle are such amazing people and it shows through their work and their business. I got the honor of having Russell as our photographer. He was creative, proactive, professional and witty. Russell was flexible and worked with the changes that came our way but made sure we got the key pictures we wanted and surprised with all the great photos he was able to capture. I highly recommend DPARK Photography. You will not be disappointed.

Amazing engagement photo session yesterday with David and Drexelle. My fiancé and I were so comfortable we forgot we were having our pictures taken. The morning after the photo session we woke up to two beautiful preview images and we couldn’t be more happy and satisfied with the final images. Can’t wait to for the remaining engagement photos and for the our wedding photography. We would highly recommend DPARK photography for all those looking for something special and unique for your big day.

Had the BEST engagement photo session with Russel and Cara. My fiancé and I were so nervous in the beginning but within minutes felt like we were taking photos with our best friends. Cara went out of her way to always fix my hair and Make up for every photo and Russell’s vision for every photo is incredible. I’m 10x more excited for my wedding just knowing these two will be capturing the photos!

Both being pretty big Disney fans, we wanted to treat ourselves and do a Disney-​themed photo shoot for our engagement photos. When we started to research e-​session photographers in Disneyland, D. Park kept on coming up again and again as the photographers who did the kind of photos we loved. Coming from Canada, it was hard to decide on a destination e-​session and photographer without first meeting with them in person, but wow Drexelle made me feel completely at ease from our initial email contact to phone call to us signing the contract!
Drexelle is so detail-​oriented which I truly appreciate — everything from the initial idea, implementation, down to the actual day’s photo shoot timeline. On the day of the photo shoot, both Drexelle and David arrived early so we were able to do introductions, get settled and then start. Both are so thoughtful, easy to work with and helped us feel at ease. They both know the park like the back of their hands and provided specific guidance to help us pose and smile. We both really appreciate the hands-​on approach since we didn’t know what to expect. The conversation was never-​ending and watching Drexelle and David work was amazing.
Their dynamic style, ability to capture vibrant colors, backgrounds and angles, professionalism and fair pricing cannot be matched and we are so happy with our e-​session photos which didn’t take long to receive. Our sneak peek photos even came the day immediately after our session which was such a treat to see!
If only we were getting married in Anaheim as well, we would totally be using D. Park on our wedding day! Maybe a post-​wedding photo session will have to be in the works… Thank you so much Drexelle, David and D Park Photography for making our destination engagement session so incredible and helping us create unforgettable memories!

David & Drexelle Park are two of the most talented and thoughtful people you will ever meet. They were my cousin’s wedding photographer and that’s when I fell in love with this couple! When it came to be my turn to get married, there were no other people I was considering to capture our wedding day. I actually made my wedding day contingent on David & Drexelle being free that day! That’s how much I really wanted them.
They are so easy to work with and actually helped to brain storm ideas for our engagement photo theme which came out better than expected! I’m very awkward and so it took me a while to feel comfortable in front of the camera but Drexelle was wonderful with her cues and it made the photo shoot a lot of fun!
One of the many things that I love about their style is just how they can capture emotions and intimate moments and draw you in and make you vividly relive them.
I’ve been recommending them to all my engaged and soon to be engaged friends and family. When it’s time to capture any future big events in our lives, I definitely will be reaching out to David and Drexelle. I absolutely trust them and in their vision and their passion.
Thank you both so much!

I am so thankful that we had D Park Photography for my wedding! Wedding photography is one of the most important ways to capture the memories and emotion on your once in a lifetime day. I was more than happy with their professionalism and quality of photos. I felt they understood my love story and cared for us as a couple. D Park created the «BEST DAY EVER» photos that popped. They got the energy and emotion of the day. I liked they they helped me chose the order of my wedding album photos because they created a storyline. I was able to have 2 revisions however I ended up picking their original creation because I felt it was the best. Thank you Drexelle and David Park and the D Park staff! You did the best and I am so pleased!

It’s hard to decide on where to begin this review because the D Park Team is beyond amazing.
My wife and I recently got married at Disneyland and since our wedding was held in the evening, we wanted someone who was familiar with the venue and night time photography. D Park met and went above and beyond all our needs and expectations.
From our very first meeting to the day of the wedding, they were kind, warm hearted and exerted a professional aura that made us feel comfortable and at ease. Our relationship blossomed to the point where we can call David and Drexelle (and their adorable son, Knightly!!) really good friends and that helped us get into character and work the camera lol.
Their style of photography is dramatic and chique and we really loved how our engagement and wedding pictures turned out. We constantly get rave reviews and recommend them all the time to our fellow friends who are engaged :)

Very professional team. I loved the way that Drexelle communicated with me throughout the whole process. I also was happy that there was a personal portal online with reminders and how I was able to view my contract. It definitely made things easy!
Our family photos were taken by Russell and Cara. They were easy to work with and Cara definitely helped my one year old daughter smile and have fun for the camera.
Prices for family Christmas photos were reasonable and my husband and I are pleased with the end result.
I would recommend them to a friend.
