The Photographer I needed

Gael was absolutely wonderful! We eloped in Vermont and had to change the venue due to the weather. She went above and beyond to capture the right moments and even helped with the dress since I was alone. Everything turned out exactly how it needed to and I cannot thank her enough for all her help.

Wonderful!

Planning my clients wedding was a bit of a challenge, as it took place in Vermont and we live in MA. The easiest part, by far, was dealing with Gael. Somehow she just knew our vision, and we could not be happier with the photos, perfection! She was quick responding, professional and honestly just a super cool lady! I also had a limited budget, Gael was the perfect fit, thank you again!!!

Amazing wedding photography experience

I cannot recommend Gael Cantlin Photography high enough. From the beginning, she made our wedding photography journey stress free and creative. Her energy and excitement about finding the most beautiful photography spots around my venue made us excited for the photo portion of our day, and she worked professionally and efficiently. Gael had expert communication skills, and checked-in to plan out the photography plan at all the right intervals, making our life easier and easing any worries. When her second photographer fell through due to sickness, she immediately notified us that she had an amazing replacement, Jess. Gael and Jess were an awesome team and clearly have so much wedding photography experience. Gael and Jess got my husband and I to get into a canoe on a lake in our wedding attire for the most epic photos and private moment between my then fiancé and I before the ceremony. One of the main reasons we were drawn to Gael when we saw her work at another wedding was her ability to get candids of guests in motion on the dance floor. We just got a chance to look through all of our wedding photos from Gael and Jess and we could not be happier. The portraits are all well composed pieces, and the candids are so crisp and full of life. Gael and Jess were extremely generous and flexible with their time on the day of our wedding, showing up earlier than required and ensuring that they had everything ready for the big day. The way that Gael and Jess worked together ensured that all angles and parts of our day were covered. They were both extremely kind and helpful as the day progressed, causing us to relax and feel like we were in good hands. Our guests and families loved working with them and now they are obsessed with the photos. Gael surprised us by sending a beautiful, personalized box with printed photos from our wedding, along with a fancy flash-drive with over 4,000 files from our day. We were not expecting to get such a special and personal touch, showing how thoughtful, caring, and professional Gael’s work is. Gael’s excitement about our venue was contagious and fueled her artistic flare for our photoshoot and her ease in navigating a venue she had never worked at before was impressive. If you are looking for a professional, extremely talented, stress-free, artistic, trustworthy, and communicative photographer and photographer team, Gael Cantlin Photography is your clear answer.

Amazing pictures and made us feel comfortable

Gael and her second shooter Jessica were awesome at our wedding this past May at Echo Lake Inn in Ludlow, VT. She had been there before and knew the lay of the land. She supported doing a first look and we're so glad we did as those are some of the best pictures. She got all of the details but we never felt that she was in our face. Her price was reasonable and she was always available to answer questions
