Hey, I’m Dannie!

Welcome to Blotted Ink Photography, where your story isn’t just captured — it’s celebrated. I believe every couple's journey is special, and I’m here to tell it in a way that’s as bold, authentic, and colourful as you are.

I live on the beautiful Torbay coast with my husband (who I’ve been married to since I was 19!) , two amazing children, a cat, and two snakes (the fabulous Jackie Daytona and Hissy Elliott!) It’s a bit of a circus over here, but hey, it’s never dull!

Now, a bit about me — I’m obsessed with colour, especially PINK. ( I miss my pink hair every day.) My house looks like a pop-culture explosion with a dash of 90s nostalgia. I like to think of it as a love letter to Mr Blobby.

I am AuDHD diagnosed, parenting SEN kiddos and very proud of our neurospicy household - so I have a deep understanding of all things anxiety on the day and love to be the most organised!

Gimme all the music, tattoos and movies…

  • Fall Out Boy will forever be my favourite (Elder Emo for LIFE)

  • Lord of the Rings is life, that moment with Aragorn and those doors lives rent free in my brain at any given moment

  • I have 3 tattoos of shrimps in various guises, will likely add more

  • I am obsessed with Anne Boleyn. Because are you neurospicy if you’re not obsessed with The Tudors, Ancient Egypt or Greek Mythology (or all 3)

I specialise in capturing those raw, real moments — the laughter, the tears, the joy — all wrapped in a burst of colour. If you’re after a documentary-style approach with a pop of personality, I’m here for it!

But here’s the deal: I’m not just your photographer. I’ll be there to fluff your veil, grab you a prosecco (or a pair of scissors if you’re in a pinch), and make sure you feel like I’m part of the gang. Think of me as your wedding day sidekick, bringing a touch of calm and lots of laughs.

Got questions? Want to chat about how I can help make your big day unforgettable? Drop me a message, and I can’t wait to get the conversation started.
