Engagement & Wedding photos

Ah! Where can I start?
Gabriel is not only the most talented photographer ever but was the absolute best support and personality you could have on your side. Although his work really speaks for itself his personality and passion for his works is just another reason to have be part of your special day. Gabriel is so knowledgeable about all the details about your day and really takes charge to help you plan out your day and make you feel so special. I can’t tell you how many people still talk about my wedding or engagement photos. Not only do you fall in love with Gabe’s work but you fall in love with his personality and professionalism! We can’t imagine having anyone else take our future family photos, we are lifers!!

Best Photographer!!

Gabe was an amazing photographer! My husband and I knew we were going to use him as our wedding photographer the first time we met up. He has a great personality and is always so happy! He also did a great job of keeping me calm on our wedding day. He was very helpful and made sure the whole day ran smoothly. Our family and friends loved him as well!

9/20/19 Wedding

Gabe is extraordinary in everything he does!! His work is so beautiful and he is able to capture every emotion in his photos! He truly has a gift. Gabe was our photographer for our wedding this September and we had an even better experience than we could have ever imagined!! He is not only an amazing photographer, but has the kindest heart and positive energy that fills the room! He has a way of making everyone feel at ease which comes across in all of the photos. Every one of our guests commented on how awesome he was!!! He was even part of the dance party and truly was the life of the party!! He sent us our preview photos within one week of our wedding and each and every one was so beautiful!! We are so thankful to have these memories for a lifetime. Hiring Gabe as our wedding photographer was the best decision we made and we cannot thank him enough for being a part of our day and making it so special!!

Unbelievable Photographer and a Great Guy / Team!

Gabe is far and away the best wedding photographer available in SD, and one of the most genuine people we’ve ever met. We are so thankful we asked him to be our photographer, and he set the standard for every other vendor we hired for our wedding.

Gabe’s work speaks for itself, and his breathtaking portfolio’s caught our attention right away. We contacted him to discuss a contract, and he immediately requested a time for a call or a FaceTime. He was the first vendor we spoke with in the wedding planning process, and he helped us so much. His first request was to hear our story - how we met, when we got engaged, etc. He had a true interest in getting to know us as people, and made planning our wedding from across the country so much easier. He told us exactly what he needed from us, and helped a ton in building the schedule for the wedding day. He told our wedding party (and us) exactly what photos he needed, and handled our families perfectly. He spent time with the venue beforehand, so he knew exactly where to shoot and how, and caught some amazing sunset photos during the reception as well. AND he was out there on the dance floor with us all, absolutely cutting up the rug while catching some awesome photos.

Gabe was everything we could have hoped for in a wedding photographer and more. He made our day and our lives so much easier, fully bought in to our wedding, our story, and our families, and took INCREDIBLE photos of our wedding day. We fully recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer, and if we ever need a professional photographer’s expertise in SD again we will 100% be asking him!

He’s the wedding choice you won’t regret!

Hiring Gabe as your wedding photographer is hands down the best decision you can make! We recently had our engagement photo shoot with him in Joshua Tree and he made us feel so special and like beautiful people! He immediately greeted us as if we’ve known each other for years. His personality is infectious in a great way because he makes you feel so at ease. He’s hands down just a cool photographer and an immediate friend!

When he got to our shoot location he looked around and just knew he had an eye for where to shoot. His brain was brewing art. He took the time to get to know us and asked about how we first met. There was never a dull moment and the photos show that. We can’t wait to have him shoot our big day! Gabe is truly a beautiful person and is gifted with capturing special moments for others.

Best Wedding Photographer in SoCal!

There's a reason Gabriel is on SO many venue and vendor preferred lists, he's THE BEST to work with and produces an amazing product for his couples! As a wedding planner, I've worked with an abundance of photographers. This is a person you'll be spending your entire day with, so you want someone that will help you stay relaxed and is a total pleasure to be around. The only downside is he books quickly, so don't wait!

He's the guy you book for your wedding before you get engaged--he's that good.

We first met Gabe at our best friend's wedding. He was their photographer and the minute we saw their wedding photos, we knew he had to be ours too. We just wrapped up our engagement shoot and couldn't be more in love with the photos he gave us. Not to mention the whole experience was SO fun. He's the kind of person who makes you feel like you've known him forever and that's super important when you don't have much modeling experience under your belt. He made us feel so comfortable and the photos speak for themselves. They're fun, laidback, natural and totally capture us as a couple. We can't wait for him to shoot our big day. If you're looking for a photographer, you need this guy in your life! We promise you won't be disappointed.

Best Wedding Photographer Ever!

Having the most perfect wedding day is the end goal and I don't think individuals realize sometimes how important it is to have vendors you love and can trust. Gabriel Conover simply made every photo we took during a day not a chore but the best time ever with every moment laughing and smiling so effortlessly you don't even feel your jaw starting to tighten up.

I'll start the day from the beginning:
Gabe came in and immediately started reviewing the space and scoping out potential photos, while I was getting hair and makeup done he took the opportunity to take photos of the dress and small details like jewelry, for me this turns out to be even more important as in the midst of the crazy my grandmother's necklace has gone missing and now those photos are what I will have of it as she passed away earlier the year before and that was my way of keeping her with me. These are details that are important that we ourselves may forget about but Gabe makes sure to capture them for us. From the beginning Gabe kept me laughing and smiling with his genuine sincerity and love for what he does, his energy is infectious and cannot be ignored that everybody picked up on it.

He understood the importance of capturing family portraits and in my family's case (multiple of the same picture and pose) and did it without complain or irritation but with the biggest laugh ever!

I didn't have to worry that he was capturing the best candid moments while still making sure to get all the best and/or important part of the wedding.

Simply put he and his team are amazing and extremely professional, my husband and I got sneak peaks of our wedding only two days later! So I have a whole mini album to gush over until we get the rest of the pictures. And we already know that we will be printing out all of them to put in frames and albums that we will cherish forever.

Truly we hit the jackpot with Gabe and intent to hire him again in the future for anniversary shots or in home sessions!

Thank you for being so great at what you do! You truly were a big part of making our big day the most best day ever!

Amazing!!!

Beyond impressed with our experience with Gabe as our wedding photographer! We have only just started our wedding journey, but I am already beaming with excitement because of this incredible artist. We were initially interested in Gabriel Conover because of his photos on instagram. We, then, booked our engagement photo shoot, and from the moment of contact with him, it just felt like the perfect fit. He took time to learn about my fiancé and I, as a couple, prior to meeting with us; which made our first time meeting feel like a reunion with a long lost friend! He has an infectious laugh and a vibrant personality that made our engagement shoot so natural and fun! We received our photos and could not be more in love with them. He captured us in some of the most vulnerable ways, as well as, in our most silly and natural ways. I can’t imagine a better choice for a photographer than Gabriel Conover! Simply amazing!!

Fun and easy to work with

My fiancé and I are getting married out of town and wanted engagement photos in our hometown. We found Gabe through Instagram and instantly fell in love with his style of photography. He was very accommodating with finding a time that worked with my work and my fiancé’s school schedule. During the photo shoot he always kept us calm and laughing when I was sure I’d be nervous and stilted. He knew how to guide us into poses without making it overly formal or forced. He even showed pictures during the shoot to reassure me that we looked good. He was so wonderful to work with! We got sneak peaks back after a couple days and the whole set after 2 weeks. So fast! I highly recommend him!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
