The Experience

My approach and my why.

Capturing the most significant moments of your life is a dream come true, and I'm deeply honored whenever a couple chooses to work with me! My number one goal always is to document your day organically and honestly as it naturally unfolds. This is your story – I just get to capture it!

This means observing and capturing the genuine interactions and fleeting moments without disrupting the flow of your day. I’m a huge believer that your photos should reflect your day, not dictate it! While my approach is documentary, I know when to step in for gentle guidance and direction during family photos and portraits that feel natural. Being in front of a camera can be unfamiliar, so I’m here to make sure you feel at ease and comfortable!

Whether I’m shooting your wedding solo or accompanied by a second shooter, you can rest easy knowing we will always approach the day with a stress-free, positive attitude. Think of me not just as another vendor, but as a supportive friend and enthusiastic hype girl on your big day so you can focus on being present and not sweat the details!

From our first conversation to the final gallery - I want you to feel seen.

I’m always asking myself throughout a wedding day – would I want to see this moment if I were the couple? What are they potentially missing out on right now due to the fact that we can’t be everywhere at once? Viewing your family and friends as my own on the day of helps me capture every moment thoughtfully and put myself in your shoes! I want you to scroll through your gallery and think things like “This dancing photo screams *insert name here*” and “OMG I didn’t know this happened!!”

Photography designed to break the stereotypical mold and allow you to relive the pure emotions from the day.

“Gabriella is the ultimate photographer. During our experience with her, she always made us laugh and feel comfortable. We never felt rushed or under pressure – Gabriella always let us be ourselves. After getting the photos and showing it to a friend, the friend said “I have never seen (my significant other) smile so much.” –Eddie B.
