Hi, I'm Danielle, and I took over GR Studio Space in the beginning of the summer, 2019. I couldn't be happier to be living my dream of having gorgeous spaces to use and providing an invaluable service to so many other photographers! I recently opened a third studio (GR Loft) and I was able to create my dream studio with suggestions from the photographers that use the spaces regularly. Everything I do with GR Studio Space is fueled by my renters - I want you to be able to walk into any of the studios and feel at home. My goal is for you to walk out of my spaces with gorgeous images and confidence in yourself as a photographer. I've got a lot of plans moving forward including equipment upgrades, classes, and a photographer directory in hopes of fueling your success. I want more than names on my booking calendar, I want to build a community of support.

When I’m not working on the studios, I’m enjoying married life to my best friend, with two kids - a 9 year-old daughter and a nearly 4 year-old son. I love to travel as I prefer warm weather, but I spend more time planning dream vacations than actually going on them. I am driven by the need to create things of all sorts, all the time! I get asked quite often if I too am a photographer, and the answer is yes. I took the leap to make it my career in 2016, and while I have plenty to learn, I’m happy to be a resource for those of you just starting out. Honest to a fault and a major rule follower, I can be easy going and understanding as long as there is communication. As a selective introvert, I enjoy spending time alone and yet I crave quality time with the people I love. I am learning to embrace my ADHD and OCD, which make life challenging, yet equip me with superpowers. There isn’t much I won’t share, so feel free to reach out if you need assistance or have questions about me or my businesses!
