Amazing Photographer and the kindest soul who goes above and beyond....capturing absolutely stunning photos !!

Chantel was a absolute joy to work with! She did our engagement photos and our wedding. Chantel is one of the kindest individuals you will meet. She was so helpful throughout the whole wedding process. She captured our wedding beautifully. Our photos turned out even better than imagined. John and I are more on the shy side when it comes to taking photos and she made the whole process feel fun and stress free. Chantel went above and beyond with our photos and we are blown away with how quickly she provided us with sneak peeks and our full wedding album afterwards.

I will continue to use Chantel in the future for any family sessions as she always makes the whole process so fun and captures beautiful moments.

I highly recommend Chantel to anyone looking for a photographer. She is so kind and professional and her work is amazing !

Absolutely incredible

I would not hesitate to recommend Chantel to anyone! At our first meeting, she made me feel instantly at ease and was genuinely interested in my thoughts and ideas. She made sure to stay in contact from our first meeting and the wedding and answered every question I came up with. When it came to the actual wedding day, she made sure I was comfortable and entirely at ease. I didn't have to worry at all because I knew she was paying attention to the shots we had discussed previously. She also made everyone feel comfortable and we got some amazing photos! Her second shooter Janine was also amazing! They worked so well as a team and the two of them helped make the day absolutely perfect. She was VERY prompt with sending us sneak peaks and despite being very busy, managed to get us our final product faster than she had originally predicted. I would absolutely recommend Chantel Dirksen Photography!!

Incredible !

The photos really do speak for themselves - we love them so much. Chantel did such a perfect job capturing every moment of our wedding day. She paid attention to the details and made sure she captured both candid and particular shots. Her professionalism, creativity, and sincere passion for weddings and photography carried through the entire day. From hiding in the bushes to photograph the proposal to being at the forefront of our wedding day, there is no doubt we would use Chantel again in the future to capture more of life’s special moments.

Where to begin!

We started as a couple who were nervous having engagement photos (being so unfamiliar in front of a camera) to a couple who now have so many perfect photos to choose from after the wedding. Chantel has the ability to make you so comfortable and feel so confident in the photos she’s taking. I love how excited she gets about your photos- it makes the anticipation to receive your photos that much greater! She’s beyond sweet and so helpful in planning your day! Look forward to working with her again hopefully sometime in the future for other photog sessions :)
