more about gabby

I started picking up a camera in high school- I am now 29, self taught and owning my own business. I found out what I wanted to do early in life and went for it, with the support of my amazing husband. I am committed and driven, and have a habit of not putting down a project until I'm finished (who needs sleep anyway when you enjoy your work?)

I chose to specialize in weddings because I enjoy photographing couples. I love getting to hear the different life path’s people experience together and the tiny details that make up their special love stories. It makes my heart happy to know that my clients admire my work and trust me to capture the biggest day of their lives.

I believe in God, and that is a staple in my business. Without him, I wouldn't be where I am today. He has been with me every step of the way and I want to honor him in my business and everything I do.

You matter. Your wedding day matters. And I want to reflect the beauty of it all.

I thrive in creating order out of chaos on a wedding day while seamlessly documenting all of the moments. My favorite thing to photograph is the bride and groom portraits and I absolutely love a good sunset! I have so much fun making timelines and helping my couples plan their day out with their photos in mind. I value one-on-one relationships and quality conversations.

 I love showing people how valued they are, finding solutions to problems, and making wedding days shine. I'm detail oriented and think of everything when taking photos, while also creating a natural and cinematic story of a wedding day.

Words that describe my artwork- earthy, cinematic, romantic

Words that describe me- genuine, efficient, calm natured, DCSI, ESTJ

I give a complete wedding experience, not just photos. I include timeline advice, vendor recommendations, photo planning for your wedding day, efficient workflow for the day of and more. Clients speak about my ability to create images that tell their unique story, efficiency and fast paced work on their wedding days, my creative eye and making the photo process easy and enjoyable.

Traveling for wedding days is my favorite thing to do, and ive had the blessing of capturing adventures on the west coast, east coast, beach, mountains, and everything in between. I enjoy every second of my job and am so grateful God has given me this opportunity to document love stories all around the globe! Contact me about your wedding or elopement, I travel to you!
