The best of the best

I don't actually have the words to express how incredible Chip and Jeanette Gillespie are. I was a bridesmaid in a wedding that Chip worked in 2017, and I knew that whenever I got married, he had to be my photographer. Fast forward to 2019, I got engaged, and Chip was one of the first people to congratulate us (as we had actually kept in touch since meeting in 2017). We booked him immediately for our 2020 wedding and met up with him and his wife when we went to Houston for wedding planning activities in February 2020 and had that extra affirmation that they were the best pair for the job. As COVID-19 hit, we kept up with each other, even with me being in Virginia while he was in Texas, and he checked in to make sure we were doing okay throughout the pandemic and the planning. To be honest, he actually talked me down during a small panic attack over rescheduling and postponing our wedding due to COVID. And he didn't do all of this because it was his job and because he cared about getting a paycheck -- he did it because he's a genuine person who loves his clients and really cares about the wellbeing of everyone he works with. When we ultimately decided to postpone, he worked with us and was nothing short of flexible and understanding. Fast forward to May 2021 (vaccinated and all), we finally had our wedding and Chip and Jeanette were calm, organized, efficient, and incredibly fun throughout the entire day. They work in tandem to make sure every part of your day is captured beautifully and they take charge during family photos so it doesn't get drawn out into this long ordeal. EVERYONE at our wedding loved them -- with many saying they wish they had used them for their own wedding. Not only are they quality people, they're quality photographers as well. Our photos came out beyond perfect and I look at them all the time to relive the magic and excitement of that day. LONG review aside -- Chip and Jeanette Gillespie are the real deal. Fair pricing, the best quality people and photos, and you get lifelong friends out of the relationship. Seriously cannot recommend them enough.

Worth EVERY penny!

WOW, how did we land such a fabulous photographer?! Chip is an extremely talented photographer with a special gift of making his clients feel special. Throughout the wedding, we got tons of compliments on our photographer (and they hadn't even seen the final pictures yet!). Chip was cooperative with our busy schedules and traveled all over to meet us for informational check ins, engagement shoots, and the wedding itself. On the day of the wedding, Chip was doing WAY more than he originally signed up for in helping with much of the coordinating when some of the church representatives fell short for us. Instead of doing only "his job," Chip made sure my husband and I were taken care of. Chip is a great man- even greater than his (fantastic!) pictures and he made our day extra special. I can't recommend Chip highly enough!

Where do I even begin? From the moment we met Chip and his beautiful bride over coffee, there was a connection. His fun loving approach, coupled by her sweet spirit, made for the perfect combination to capture our daughter’s special day. When you connect with people it definitely is reflected in the pictures. We are so thankful for the both of you and couldn’t have imagined the day running any smoother. Professional, warm and amazing are just a few of the adjectives that flood my mind! It was a spectacular day and I am certain it was largely in part to the energy and heart you brought from the moment you stepped on-site until the event reached it’s Happily Ever After.....Thank you doesn’t even begin to express my heart! ❤️Y’all
