"We booked Gillian for our wedding back in October ‘24 and let me tell you it was one of the best decisions we made. We had no idea what we wanted, and had never had professional photos done, but she was so helpful with everything. Even from the beginning with the engagement photos she was helpful with outfit suggestions and location ideas. She also gave us help with our wedding day timeline, while always being sure not to stray from our vision.

Her energy on our day was great. She helped us stay organized and on time, but was also calm and light. She even saved me from a dress-malfunction when one of the straps to my dress popped off. She helped me laugh it off, and the photos came out so amazing, you’d never have known the dress wasn’t meant to be strapless lol

Her online portal made it so easy to compile the list of shots we wanted and organize who needed to be present at which times. And once the photos were done the website made it so easy to share the link to the album with the people we wanted to, without needing to download ever single photo.

On top of all that she’s just a great gal! And honestly, energy is everything when you’re planning your big day, so I’m super happy we found someone who matched us so well!!"
