Todd LafflerI began my journey in photography when I was 17 years of age. My mother showed me how to shoot, develop, and print black and white photographs in her makeshift darkroom in our basement. I was blown away by the whole process, and instantly became infatuated. I started photographing what I knew best, which at the time was skateboarding. I even made my own skateboard magazine using my photography. After high school I went on to earn my BFA in Photography from the Maryland Institute College of Art. In 2012 I was incredibly honored to be named one of the top ten wedding photographers in the world by American Photo Magazine. -

"Photography is my life. Capturing what happens in front of me while interfering as little as possible, documenting the feelings.

I photograph life." -
Daniel & Davina KudishDaniel has had a camera in his hands since he was a kid. Accompanied by his father, a well-accomplished amateur photographer, a teenage Daniel was the youngest attendee at workshops in New York City and Boston. Later in life, but when he was still a relatively young man, he completed a degree in professional photography from Dawson College in Montreal, and met his future wife Davina a few years later in 2007.
And that is when Davina’s love affair with photography began. She was in her final year of Journalism School, and she was confused about what she wanted to do with her life. She very much enjoyed the story-telling aspects of journalism, but she had yet to find a medium of expression that felt like an extension of herself. It wasn’t until a camera was brought to her eye that she finally felt like she had found her voice. It didn’t take long for her to commit to this new career - and to the man who helped her discover it! - and she launched herself into both the art and the business of wedding photography.
Today Davina + Daniel (http://davinaplusdaniel.com) photograph destination and international weddings exclusively. They have photographed weddings in Japan, Italy, Bhutan, Guatemala, Taipei, Mexico, Monaco, Panama, Costa Rica... as well as several cities in the United States and Canada.
