Wedding review

G&W Photography, Gail and Wendy did a fabulous job and I was so excited when my photos came back and I was able to relive the day all over again. They definitely captured a great day all in their photos.

The Absolute BEST!

Getting married during ‘Rona20 was not the easiest in the first place, from finding places to go that weren’t shut down for bridals to changing venues a week before the wedding. These two were absolutely amazing! Gail was very flexible and fun; she has a natural ability to make you feel comfortable! When you see your pictures for the first time, you feel as though you can relive the day... just one more time. When Gail and Wendy attend your event, they’re going to make you laugh and enjoy your day with you! Matt and I really appreciate and adore these two! Thank you Gail and Wendy for a spectacular day!

Perfection

Gail and Wendy are beyond amazing! They care about what you want and really want your day to be special and capture every moment! My favorite moment of when I saw my husband and him tear up my eyes were locked on him and they captured that so perfectly! I can’t wait to use them for anniversary photos!

Such a fun time!

They were so flexible with everything! I was a little nervous about hiring someone over the phone without ever meeting before the wedding, but from the first phone call, Gail completely got rid of my nerves! She told me about how she shoots a wedding, and asked me all about what I wanted. She was quick to send me the questionnaires so my fiancé and I had time to discuss them, and answered any questions!

The day of, she showed up early, set up quickly and quietly, and told me exactly what her plan is, and was even great with a few last minute changes. We had a small wedding because of Corona, and the pictures captured an amazing day. They were beautiful, and everything we wanted. And she was great with directions with my large and unruly family!

Also - SO AFFORDABLE. Just a wonderful choice all around!

We have used Gail for several events at our venue. I cannot recommend her enough. Gail has a creative eye and is funny and kind. She has a fast turnaround, and we have published a number of her photos on Weddings in Houston. Love her team!

Beyond Wonderful

Gail and Wendy were beyond wonderful. They were helpful in both planning and day of. All of our pictures turned out beautiful. For someone that is not photogenic, they were able to capture moments that looked stunning. I cannot wait for our next event to utilize G&W Photography.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
