Gloria is Super Woman! Everyone loves her!

Gloria is hands down the BEST photographer out there! During our initial appointment, she made us feel so special because she really took the time to listen to what I told her over the phone about my wedding vision, and you could tell she loves what she does and loves all her clients so much. Booking Gloria on the spot was the easiest decision my husband and I made. Her attention to detail is perfection. The quality of her photos are gorgeous. Above all, she is such a delight to work with. She's easy going and always so happy to see you. Throughout the entire process from initial booking, to engagement photos, boudoir photos, rehearsal dinner, and wedding day, Gloria was there for us every step of the way. With Gloria, it even goes beyond the pictures, you know you're going to be taken care of like family with her. Gloria came to the rescue on multiple occasions. My location for engagement photos was not the best, but Gloria was quick on her feet to think of an alternative location very close by. The photos turned out beautiful! Another incident occurred when both my coordinator and videographer backed out of my wedding with only one month to spare! Gloria was there to send A+ referrals my way, and I am so thankful to her because my wedding team was amazing! Gloria was very involved in the wedding process from start to finish. She knows what recommendations to make because she knows what's going to look good. I put my trust in Gloria 100%, and for that reason, all the photos she has taken have come out looking like straight out of a magazine - as many have said actually. For all those reasons, Gloria is worth every penny! Gloria is like family now, and I cannot wait to continue my journey with her in the future for maternity and family photos. Thank you, Gloria!! We love you!

The Best Photographer For My Client

I recently referred Gloria Mesa to client that had a party within a few weeks. Gloria was perfect for my clients as she connected with them and their culture. The whole time she went above and beyond including driving to their home last minute for an engagement photo shoot.

On the day of the party she showed up early and even stayed later. She is so professional, kind and gracious. She is also one of the most talented photographers that with whom I have worked.

Her pictures are beautiful. She is always present to the joy in the room and is ready to capture every moment.

If you are looking for a warm, wonderful and caring photographer, look no further than Gloria as you will be delighted with the results you get. Beautiful pictures forever!

The best bilingual photographer in la

Gloria literally saved the day for my husband and I! Our photographer, who we booked almost two years in advance, cancelled on us TWO WEEKS before our special day. Thankfully, I called Gloria and she was available! I think this was a match made in heaven because it all worked out wonderful. Most of my family speaks Spanish so the fact that she could direct everyone instead of having to translate everything was a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. With less than two weeks for Gloria to prep for my wedding, she made she I got all the pictures I wanted along with the style we were going for. I felt so comfortable taking pictures all day with her (which I thought I was going to dread). Gloria was there all night and captured all the important memories. Both of our families fell in love with her too, can't wait to have another life event for her to capture!

Blown away

Gloria was the easiest and best choice we made while planning our wedding. She was responsive, helpful and just an absolute pleasure to work with. We received so many compliments from our guests and family about her and her assistant. She also did our engagement photos and honestly we were blown away with her work. She’s experience and it really shows. I cannot recommend Gloria enough.
