Dakotah (Premium Only)

Dakotah brings an adventurous spirit to his work as a photographer, drawing from a life filled with bold experiences. Whether skydiving, cliff diving, scuba diving, or practicing martial arts, his journey has been defined by a passion for exploration. His personal motto, “I’m always down for an adventure,” reflects the enthusiasm he brings to every aspect of his life.

His creative journey began while living in California, where he first picked up a camera. What started as a hobby quickly became a passion, inspiring Dakotah to teach himself the art of photography. Returning to his roots after his time out west, Dakotah married, welcomed his son in 2020, and discovered a new outlet for creativity as a video game content creator. Through this experience, he honed his technical skills and storytelling abilities, which seamlessly transitioned into his photography career.

Dakotah joined our team with a fresh perspective and a drive to perfect his craft. From his very first year, he demonstrated a natural talent for capturing weddings, quickly becoming an integral part of our photography team. He played a pivotal role in enhancing our approach to storytelling through still photography, ensuring each couple’s love story is beautifully preserved.

As a married man, Dakotah deeply understands the significance of documenting a couple’s most important moments. He approaches each wedding with care, ensuring that the images he captures allow couples to relive the joy, emotion, and magic of their day for years to come. Dakotah has a particular passion for capturing the energy of receptions and the unforgettable send-off moments that close the night.

Beyond his technical expertise, Dakotah’s warm and approachable personality helps him form genuine connections with the couples he works with. He goes above and beyond to ensure their day is seamless, creating memories that will be cherished forever.

Here’s what our clients had to say about Dakotah:

“Our wedding was perfect! The photos also came out great. [Dakotah} did everything I asked, was very organized with the planning, and made sure every special moment was captured. I can’t recommend them enough!”
– Brooke P.

“I can’t not recommend Complete Weddings + Events enough! From the very beginning they were wonderful to work with. Dakotah did so amazing with making us comfortable during our engagement pictures and developed such a great environment. He took the most beautiful bridal portraits and our wedding photos were everything I could have dreamed of and more!”
– Marisa M.

“My now husband and I stumbled upon complete at a Bridal show where we meet Dakotah (who was our amazing photographer) and he was so personable and answered all of my millions of questions. When I say this company will deliver and give you the best quality I mean it!! From our amazing and gorgeous photos from Dakotah. The pictures meant the most to me because sometimes all you’ll have left of someone are pictures so we paid extra to have a ton of pictures! One of my favorite picture is the one that Dakotah was able to put my mom in. I lost my mom 4 years prior to my wedding and it was extremely hard planning a wedding without her. I had many many talks with Dakotah about him trying to add her in a picture and he said he would do his best and he most certainly did.”
