Why I love….

Capturing Special Moments at Weddings

Oh how I love capturing candid special moments at weddings. From the bride to the groom and everyone in between my camera is always at the ready. Some of my favorite images have been while I was just snapping away during the pre-wedding festivities, during the wedding, or during the excitement of the reception.

How do I capture candid moments? Well, I always make sure to observe what is going on around me and have my camera at the ready and just snap away. Another way I capture unique moments without looking to posed is to ask my couples silly questions to make them laugh, or have the whisper something to each other and then capturing that smile the instant it happens.

Another reason I love capturing special moments at weddings is bringing joy to the couples and their families. You can feel the excitement in these reviews from an adorable couple. The whole reason I enjoy wedding photography is to give couples photos they can enjoy for years to come.

“Gretchen did an absolutely amazing job at capturing beautiful moments for my wife and I. We had been wanting photos to celebrate our love for quite some time and Gretchen went above in beyond and took so much time with us to create an incredible experience and even better photos. We would recommend Gretchen to anyone looking for a great experience timeless photos.” -Sarah Webster

“Gretchen was great! She was so accommodating and made sure to capture the best moments, we are so happy with our pictures. ” – Fiorella Gonzalez
