A Day In Your Life Photography

Donna and John have an amazing way of capturing those special moments. With your family, a special event or with your dog … I have used Donna and John on several occasions and I’m so glad I did. Every time I look at the pictures it warms my heart.

Donna volunteered her services with my organization, Golden Gate Audubon Society. She drove down to the Bay Area and took photos at two of our volunteer habitat restoration days, including a large event on Martin Luther King Day. (Among our many projects, we help restore habitat for shorebirds including the endangered California Clapper Rail at MLK Jr. Regional Shoreline Park in Oakland.)
Her photos were great, and a notch above the pictures we usually get. Not only did she document what our volunteers were doing, and the fun they were having, but she conveyed the spirit of the event and there were some truly luminous «art» shots that showed the beauty both of the site, the birds and the native plants we were planting.
We really appreciate her willingness to donate her time and her skill.
You can see some of her photos from MLK Day (these are just a few of the 80+ she gave us) on our Facebook page at

Donna and John run a professional and classy business. Donna is an expert photo journalist and fine art portraits of faces from all over the world. They over delivered on every level.
She captures nuances and personalities in her images and in our case, only met my kids for 5 minutes.
Highly recommend especially if you want capturing of the moment like her birth shots of new borns.

love, love LOVE donna! she can do it all with great taste and creative flare!

Donna photographed my wedding in South Lake Tahoe, and I could not have been more pleased. Before the wedding, she made sure to understand which specific shots I wanted. Over the course of the day, she captured all the photos I requested and more.
Donna’s personality and photojournalist style make her a great photographer on so many levels. She’s relaxed, and thus made me relaxed while having my photo taken. During the ceremony and reception, her presence wasn’t noticeable, but she captured everything! During the reception, she didn’t interrupt anyone to ask for posed photos, which resulted in amazingly natural and beautiful moments captured in images.
After the wedding, Donna and John helped us pick our photos and we received everything in a very timely manner. Our families and friends were so pleased with the photos, too.
I would highly recommend Donna to anyone looking for someone to capture life’s most important moments.

We hired Donna to photograph our entire family in Incline Village. She was wonderful to work with. Great energy, easy going and creative. We had some questionable weather and Donna had many ideas on lighting and location that made it all work. Plus her pricing on photos were extremely reasonable compared to other photographers we interviewed in the N. Lake Tahoe area.
We ended up with beautiful family photos that we’ll cherish for years. Donna helped capture a very important and memorable day in our life.
Highly recommend her services.

We hired Donna Reid to photograph our wedding in Lake Tahoe and we couldn’t have been more pleased. She was an absolute pleasure to work with and did an amazing job capturing our special day. Her work is magnificent and everyone was so impressed with all of our photos and the coffee table book she created for us. She works wonders and I can’t recommend her enough!
