Wine Country/Destination Photographer ~ Gina Petersen is a Northern Bay Area based photographer specializing in creative,, classic, backlit images; Published in People magazine and on many wedding blogs, she balances her wedding collections with the traditional shots that are more classic and appreciated timelessly but also believes that the candid moments that are stolen when no one is watching are the images that incite emotion and recall the memories from your wedding day for years to come.
With a photojournalistic, soft-lit style, Gina strives to provide her clients with not only awe-inspiring images but to be an available resource. Gina feels the relationship between a wedding photographer and couple should be easy, comfortable and fun. There are many styles of photographers as well as different couple personalities. It’s important to be sure that the photographer that you choose is someone what fits your personality as a couple. Taking a limited amount of weddings each season insures that Gina has the time she wants in getting to know each couple, so that come the day of their wedding, she feels more like a friend than a hired vendor.
It is difficult for a photographer to capture candid, fun, romantic moments if the couple is feeling uncomfortable or uneasy being photographed. Take your time in finding what photographer works best with your style, budget and personality.
Gina is available for in-person, phone or Facetime consults. Feel free to contact her at 707.338.2703 or Gina@GinaPetersenPhotography.com.
Gina Petersen does a fabulous job of portraying the authenticity of the moment. She has a keen ability to capture intimate moments without ever being intrusive. She took beautiful engagement photographs of my daughter and her fiancé as well as the photos for her small wedding. Gina is an excellent photographer as well as a special person. I would recommend her highly for any event.

Phenomenal Photographer!
Its hard to not sound over-stated when I talk about how tremendously fantastic our experience was with Gina Petersen. Not only is she a talented artist who truly captures the beautiful candid moments between us and our wedding guests, but she is a fantastic human! Gina was truly a highlight of our wedding experience. If you let her see who you are as people, she will capture all of that wonder in your wedding photographs! I would recommend her 1000000 times over!

Gina in INCREDIBLE with the patience of a saint
Gina is soooooo incredible ! Flexible, knowledgeable, makes you feel comfortable. She captured some wonderful moments and we couldn’t be happier with the final photographs. If we had to do it over, we would pick her again and again as our photographer.
