My approach is all about creating a comfortable and relaxed environment for my clients on their special day.

On the wedding day itself, I arrive early to familiarize myself with the venue, lighting conditions, and any special locations or details my clients have mentioned. This preparation allows me to seamlessly blend into the background, capturing candid moments as they unfold naturally.
I believe in capturing a mix of the raw emotions, genuine interactions between loved ones and also orchestrating posed shots when needed. By adopting this approach, I ensure that my clients feel at ease and can truly enjoy their day without feeling overwhelmed by constant direction or interruptions.

- 4-8+ hours of wedding coverage

Best day ever!
Emma truly was an amazing photographer to work with on our big day. She first is a very warm and kind individual and is so easy to get along with. Taking photos isn’t always comfortable for everyone, on our big day Emma was able to capture moments candidly while also getting those great posed photos that aren’t too stiff and feel natural. The sneak peek we got less than 24hours later was soooo phenomenal! It made our wedding weekend so special to share those moments and Emma edited the photos so beautifully. When booking vendors for your wedding, I personally feel that photographers are one of the most important vendors to get right because their photos are all you will have to remember this special day years down the road. I would highly recommend Emma to be that vendor for anyone. Thank you again Emma! We hope to work again with you in the future :)

Emma is the best!
We met Emma the day of our wedding and instantly she was a joy to work with. She has a great personality as a wedding photographer and made us and our family/friends feel comfortable. She did an excellent job of allowing us to feel present at our wedding while getting the shots she needed. We got sneak peeks shortly after our wedding and oh my goodness, we were blown away. She captured our day perfectly and her editing style is gorgeous. The photos feel so authentic. I would recommend her to anyone!

The Greatest Moment Capture-er
Isaiah and I have known Emma for many years. From couples shoots, to engagement, to now our wedding, she has captured it all! Emma is simply the best, most well rounded photographer. She’s artistic, has such an eye for incredible shots, has the best personality, and even can control and handle 100 people for a single photo (yes, this was one of my wedding shot asks… SORRY EMMA). She is capably of so many different styles and is a master at every single one. Truly couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. The secondary she asked to tag along for our wedding was amazing too! So you know she has connections with other great photographers, but my proud biased opinion - Emma is the greatest. Our family and I love her so much. Thank you Emma for your talent, and keeping our dream wedding frozen in time for many years to come!

Photography Perfection
From the initial call, through an engagement shoot, and the entire wedding day Emma was incredible. Response time for any question was very quick and Emma makes you feel so comfortable during any shoot. The photos that have come from the wedding are absolutely incredible. She nailed getting all of the right moments from getting ready, to the alter, dinner and speeches, and on the dance floor. I'd hire and recommend Emma 10/10 times.

The best!
We had the most amazing experience with our wedding photographer, Emma. From the very beginning, she completely understood the assignment. One thing that was really important to us was being able to actually attend and enjoy our cocktail hour instead of spending a long time taking photos after the ceremony, and she made that happen so seamlessly. She kept everything moving efficiently while still capturing all the important moments.
She also had this incredible ability to take the lead when needed. Somehow she managed to get all of our guests to listen and organize for photos without it ever feeling stressful or rushed. She was so kind, friendly, and professional the entire day, which made us feel really comfortable in front of the camera.
On top of that, we received our photos so quickly, and they are absolutely gorgeous. Every image is so beautifully captured, and we know these are photos we will cherish for the rest of our lives. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better photographer and would recommend her to anyone without hesitation.

Emma Gibbs is the best wedding photographer in Southern California!
Emma Gibbs was outstanding! I want to recommend her to everyone. She was beyond professional but also kept it very fun and easy going. Emma was attentive to requests and emails ahead of the wedding, even making time for phone calls and shot requests on Pinterest. Emma was down for anything that day and took the most amazing photos across 3 locations on our wedding day (inside a brewery, at the venue and at a field). My guests and wedding party have complimented her attitude on the wedding day as well as the final images. Emma was friendly, on time, and made our day perfect!!

Absolutely would book again!
I appreciated Emma's professionalism throughout the entire process. She was such a pleasure to work with. My photos turned out phenomenal. I cannot rave about her enough. Her associate photographers that worked with her were also a pleasure to work with.

Emma Gibbs the 🐐
We met with multiple photographers a year before our wedding, comparing them all to each other but not really loving any of them. During our search, my best man recommended a photographer he found on IG, it was Emma. We checked out her IG and without hesitation, set up a meeting with her. We loved her work, but my then fiancé and I wanted our vendors to match our energy. From that first meeting, Emma laid out her packages, we talked about our vision, and when the meeting ended, my wife and I looked at each other and knew it was going to be Emma. It's a big thing that our personalities matched and she was VERY easy to work with. She responded to all calls, texts, and emails in a timely manner, she worked with our budget, and she got along with EVERYONE in our wedding party on the day of. We knew the pictures were going to be amazing, but when the sneak peeks came, there were no words to explain the feelings that my wife and I had. The way Emma captured the moments, everything was authentic. When looking at the pictures, we could feel how we felt that day. We loved working with Emma and would recommend her to everyone who is looking for a photographer!!

Danielson Wedding
Emma was an absolute joy to work with from start to finish. Upon our initial inquiry call, we knew that she was the right fit for us - she has such a creative, fun energy about her and its proven through her work. We were looking for more in the moment photos, with natural lighting and she 100% delivered. She has the talent, personality, affordability, and quality that we had in mind.
We started out with an engagement photo session in the Glamis Sand Dunes that was included in part of our wedding package. This was a dream photoshoot location for my husband and I as it was where our story began. Emma ate it up! She knew exactly how to pose us and capture our energy so naturally. We asked for a few sneak peeks and she ended up editing and delivering our full engagement gallery within 2 days. INCREDIBLE.
Fast forward to the wedding - we, along with our families could not have more positive things to say about Emma. She made not only us, but all sides of the family and guests feel so comfortable throughout the entire day. From the detail shots, to the portraits, to the family photos - Emma absolutely nailed our vision. She captured pure, authentic moments that we will cherish forever that truly encapsulate the magic that we felt on our wedding day. And she was back at it again with the turnaround time - sneak peeks to us by 9am the day after the wedding...MIND BLOWN. And then our full gallery within a month.
We are so incredibly grateful to have stumbled upon Emma, who photographed an acquaintance's proposal/engagement/wedding. Selecting Emma as our photographer for our biggest life moments to date was the best choice we could have made, and look forward to working with her for our next big moments.
