Attention brides

Carol is amazing. Her upbeat personality and easy smile make her the perfect choice for your special day. She arrived at my wedding with multiple cameras to ensure she always had the right tools for the job. During the photos, she remarked at our happiness, our beauty and encouraged miles of smiles from all our guests. We recieved so many comments regarding Carol's calm and positive demeanor. Carol's ability to capture the most heartfelt moments makes her a bride's best friend.

Carol MacGregor from Happy Gatherings Photography did an amazing job with my Engagement photo shoot as well as my Destination Wedding Photos! Carol's eye for detail and ease of shooting turned the photos into spectacular works of art. She has a way of capturing moments that mean so much to the couple. She knew how to shoot posed photos as well as candids and she was eager to try new things as well. Carol is very easy to work with and I would highly recommend her to any Bride and Groom!

What a wonderful experience I had working with Happy Gatherings and Carol MacGregor. The details....the color.....EVERYTHING she did was so beautiful. I absolutely LOVE my photos. I am going to have a hard time choosing which ones are my favorite!!

What a joy she was to work with. Extremely professional and such a warm person. I connected with her the moment I heard her voice on the phone. I would highly recommend Carol to anyone!! Can't say enough good things about her. I want to do it all over again because it was that much fun!!!

Love working with Carol. She's creative and seems to just blend with the couple and family to get creative and memorable photos.

Carol is the best! We have worked with her in a variety of settings; both with her wedding clients and as clients ourselves. She is always calm and relaxed, even in challenging circumstances, and her work is outstanding. She created a beautiful album for us last year and we are using it continuously! I don't know how she does it; every photo she takes looks so gorgeous... but never phony or stiff. We whole-heartedly endorse Happy Gatherings, and we look forward to continuing to work with Carol in the future.
