    Amazing work!

    I seen Caroline’s work back in 2018 and instantly knew if I ever got married, I’d book her. I loved how her portfolio was diverse and showcased individuals of different backgrounds which was important for me.
    Fast forward, now engaged, I booked her for my upcoming 2024 wedding. Caroline recently did our engagement photos and I was blown away! My fiancé and I have had several changes during our engagement and Caroline has been really patient and understanding. She was also really patient with our dog, who has never taken photos before. I can only imagine how amazing our wedding photos will turn out in our upcoming wedding.

    Caroline is the best!

    Caroline was an excellent photographer! She's patient and takes amazing photos. She also doesn't get in the way! Caroline understands weddings have schedule and knows how to flow with the time constraints on your big day! She knows how to pose you and will fulfill any "dream" photos you desire! She is the best!!!

    Incredible!

    Working with Caroline for both our engagement and wedding photos was such an easy and fun experience. Neither my husband or I really enjoy taking pictures and we were nervous to be in front of the camera but Caroline made us feel so comfortable and made it easy for us! I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding photographer. And to top it all off the pictures came out incredible!!

    Dog Photos

    Caroline is a fantastic person, and is dedicated to making sure you have a good experience at your photoshoot. I would trust her with pictures for any event I needed.

    Thanks Jess! I really appreciate you taking the time to write this - I had so much fun working with you and your pups! I'm still obsessed with the photos and cannot wait for the next session!

    Wonderful photographer

    I did a boudoir session with Caroline, and it was an amazing experience! Her work blew me away, and I really enjoyed working with her. I did the session to surprise my future husband with on our wedding day, and I know he will love them.

    Caroline Gilbody Photography's reply:

    Thank you so much Elizabeth for the kind review! It was so much fun working together and I know he loved them!

    Caroline was amazing! She captured our moment.

    Caroline photographed our marriage, a second for both of us. She asked specifics of what we wanted and did just as we asked: informal shots mostly with some formal photos meaningful to us!
    She was professional and unobtrusive! The inclement weather did not stop her from being on time!

    Amazing Photos. Best ever taken of us.

    My lovely girlfriend of 1 year 4 months and 16 days and I could never get a good photo together until we met Caroline. She took really good photos and I was happy to update my instagram with them. HIGHLY RECOMMEND CAROLINE.

    Caroline Gilbody Photography's reply:

    Thanks Nick! I always love getting to work with you all and cannot wait for our next session! Hopefully we can plan another photoshoot soon!!

    Boudoir Shoot with Caroline and Brittany

    When I saw my best friend's stunning boudoir shoot photographs and heard about her experience, I knew I had to schedule my own boudoir shoot with Caroline. It was everything I could ask for and I am so happy about all of my photos. I will continue to recommend Caroline and Brittany to all of my friends who are getting boudoir shoots!

    Caroline partners with makeup artist Brittney Eileen to provide a great offering of makeup + a boudoir shoot at an amazing price. It was so easy to work with these two and they were so welcoming on the day of my shoot. I immediately felt comfortable and had so much fun during my shoot.

    Makeup by Brittany -
    I was so happy with my makeup results from Brittany and it was a confidence boosting way to start the day! Brittany was so easy to talk to and made sure to ask me what I preferred with my makeup. She checked with me when we were done to make sure I loved the results. My skin felt amazing and I felt like I was glowing!

    The Shoot -
    I am someone who does not know what to do with their body and was definitely anxious about the shoot, but Caroline provided direction and made me feel comfortable the whole time. Our time together flew by and Caroline got a large variety of shots. I chose to change into three different looks. I also want to mention that I had a large rash on my leg that I was really self conscious about. Caroline was accommodating and flexible, and assured me that this wouldn't effect my photos. She recommended ways that I could put my hand to cover up the spots I didn't want shown.

    The Photos -
    Caroline gave an update on her Instagram to keep all of her clients up to date on what edits she was working on, since she provides all different photography offerings. I received my photos super quick and I loved all of them! I had a large variety to choose from and decided to get a book printed through the service Caroline has partnered with her photo delivery. I also received the book really quickly - in less than a week!


    Overall -
    I am so happy with my choice to do a boudoir shoot in general, but especially with Caroline. I can't wait to gift my photo book to my fiance for our wedding. The entire experience was so fun and I would definitely do another shoot someday.

    Caroline - I can't wait to see how your business grows and expands and hope to work with you again in the future!

    First Vendor Booked - Best Decision Ever!

    Caroline was our first vendor booked after we got engaged! From our engagement photos to our wedding day, Caroline has changed the way we feel about getting our photos taken. We are the couple that rarely had more than a selfie together throughout our nearly 8 year relationship. It was super important for us to have these photos to remember these special moments in our lives. She made us feel so comfortable and so confident from the very beginning. She was incredibly flexible and responsive throughout. It was super easy to communicate what we were looking for in these photo series. I felt like I was able to express my nerves and anxieties about feeling awkward in photos and she made it work for us! When we saw the results of our engagement shoot- we were blown away. I could never imagine that I would love the way I looked in a photograph. It takes a special photographer with a great eye to enable us to see the beauty. On our wedding day- she worked with my planner, videographer and our families with such calm and professionalism that I never had to worry. She took the lead and helped guide us through the day in a way that flowed well with our timeline. She was one of the first vendors I interacted with on my wedding day and it made me feel so much more at ease about how the day would flow. We truly felt like models.

    I recommend Caroline to anyone in need of a photographer- whether it’s for your wedding, engagement shoot, holiday cards, maternity shoot, or just for fun. I know we will be using her in the future as our family begins and grows throughout the years. You can see through her work and through her presence that she has a true, natural talent and puts so much pride and work into everything she does. Hands down the best decision we’ve made during the wedding planning process.

    Caroline Gilbody Photography's reply:

    Sarah, when I say you had a perfect day I seriously MEAN it! I still to this day am obsessing over your wedding and cannot express how grateful I was to be apart of it. Thank you so so much for including me for such a beautiful day and thank you for takin the time to write this beautiful review!

    Caroline is the absolute best!

    I received the opportunity to work with Caroline on an October 2022 wedding at The Herb Lyceum in Groton, MA. Both throughout the process & on the wedding day itself, Caroline was an absolute joy! She not only is an incredible human, but knows her stuff & supports her couples wholeheartedly by making them feel comfortable & extra special in capturing one of the most memorable days of their lives! She was such a HUGE part of our vendor team & could not be more honored to have her in my corner. Don't hesitate to hire this babe. She ROCKS.

    Caroline Gilbody Photography's reply:

    Thanks Carissa! Always love getting to work with you and your incredible team! It was such an incredible wedding and I'm happy we were able to work it together! Cannot wait for future weddings!!

    Couples Shoot

    My fiancé and I recently had a photoshoot with Caroline and we absolutely loved working with her from start to finish. It was our first time getting professional photos done, yet Caroline made us feel so relaxed and comfortable - it was a really enjoyable time. She is so talented and has an eye for a fantastic photo. We were so impressed with the photos and the candid moments captured. My fiancé and I highly recommend working with Caroline!

    Caroline Gilbody Photography's reply:

    Thank you Emily! You two were so amazing to work and 100% made me want to go back to Jersey for future sessions! I'm happy you both had such a positive time and I'm still obsessing over the photos :)

    Best Photographer!

    My husband and I decided to go with Caroline as our wedding photographer and it was the best decision. From the inquiring process to the big day, she was willing to answer any questions we had. We had our engagement session with her and she made us feel so comfortable and we really got to know each other even more before the big day. As for our wedding day, she brought a 2nd photographer to which was such a pleasant surprise because they both were able to capture our day so beautifully. The photos came out amazing that to this day we are still in awe! I would recommend her 1000%, you will not regret choosing her as your photographer!

    Beautifully captured our coastal Maine wedding!

    If you’re looking for a dedicated, professional, and passionate wedding photographer, look no further! From the very beginning, Caroline made us feel comfortable and at ease in front of the camera lens. We first met Caroline at our engagement shoot last October. She so kindly welcomed us onto her family’s farm and immediately felt like a friend. We walked away smiling and couldn’t wait for her to shoot our wedding!
    This summer, we got married in York, ME and Caroline & Ryan captured our day beautifully. Leading up to our wedding day, Caroline worked with us to make sure every last detail was covered and that all of our questions were answered. Caroline’s photography style is breathtakingly beautiful and we could not be more in love with our gallery. Our wedding day was perfect, and we contribute much of that to choosing Caroline to photograph the most important day of our lives. Thank you, Caroline! ❤️

    Thank you so much for such a beautiful review Lauren! You both had such a beautiful day and I'm just so happy I was able to be apart of it!

    Simply the best

    Caroline photographed my elopement ceremony in may 2022. From the moment I reached out to her I knew she was the perfect fit for our day. When having such important memories documented the overall vibe is so important, Caroline is like having another friend there and the whole experience was so comfortable. Then there’s the final product, she sent me the album just shy of two weeks later, which is amazing turn around time, and the pictures were beautiful. We put a wedding album on our coffee table and everyone who looks at it is so impressed with the photographs and looking through it you feel like you were there, it was so well documented. I will definitely hire Caroline again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer.

    Engagement photos

    Caroline was very professional yet open and friendly. Our engagement photos were taken during COVID and we felt safe working with her. She offers many different suggestions for poses during the shoot as well as making the shots I had wanted come to life. Truly a wonderful person, and phenomenal photographer. Cannot wait to see what moments she captures for our wedding!

    Caroline Gilbody Photography's reply:

    Thank you thank you THANK YOU for such an amazing review! Working with you two was so much fun and was such a great way to spend the afternoon!

    I can't say enough!

    I have worked with Caroline twice now, both for very different types of shoots but OH MY GOSH, she blew my expectations out of the park. Both sessions she was incredibly friendly and talked to us the entire time. She made us feel so comfortable and encouraged us when we were nervous about a certain pose. I recommend her to anyone who needs any pictures done, from Halloween shoots, to weddings, to senior pictures, you're guaranteed to get amazing quality pictures from Caroline!!

    Incredible Photos Incredible Photographer

    My wedding photographer bailed a week before the wedding and Caroline was gracious enough to offer her services for the big day. She was a joy to work with and her work is phenomenal! I could stare at the photos all day. They are incredible! If you are looking for a photographer for your big day or any other event, Caroline should be your top choice!

    Caroline Gilbody Photography's reply:

    Amazing photographer!!

    Caroline was amazing for our reception photography. Although we had a ceremony last year, we knew we wanted someone to photograph the “fun” part of the evening. Caroline was amazing at this - she worked with us to find a package that fit what we needed, listened to what we wanted for photographs and was able to capture some really amazing moments. Being able to relive these memories (and make new ones from shots she captured that I didn’t even see happen!!) made the whole experience even more magical.

    Amazing experience!

    Where to even begin! Caroline made our experience so perfect from our engagement photos, in between, and during our wedding. We aren't one to take a lot of still's and organized photos and she listened to this and captured exactly what we imagined. She spent time learning us, and what worked best for us throughout our time together. Being a covid bride, I spent a lot of time getting advice, and having her talk me off the ledge with all the stresses that came our way. She was so sweet, kept everything on track, and made sure to make our day perfect. Our photos are absolutely amazing! I have gotten so many compliments on how great her work is! Do not hesitate if you are thinking about booking Caroline as your photographer, you will not be disappointed. Also, a plus is she has fast turnover and you have access to all your photos as well.

    She is amazing!!

    Caroline was my photographer for a boudoir shoot, and I loved her so much that I worked with her again for my bridal shower! Being Type A, Caroline knew exactly how to calm me down by bringing lists with her that I sent along like a crazy person! She was so chill and receptive to all of my picture requests and was on the ball the whole time! She was taking pictures that I didn't even know I wanted. We got sneak peeks already and I am so happy that we got to work with Caroline again! If you want a down to earth, talented and reasonably priced photographer, Caroline is your girl!!

    Caroline Gilbody Photography's reply:

    Hey Felicia! You know I always love working with you already but thank you so much for leaving this review and always including me on lifes big moments! From bridal shower, boudoir to all things baby I always love seeing you and your family especially now as it's growing! Thanks so much for the sweet review and excited for our future sessions!

    Engagement Photo Shoot

    My fiancé and I entered Caroline’s engagement photo shoot giveaway on Instagram and luckily won! Little did we know that not only would we receive such a beautiful photo shoot, but an incredible experience that felt so relaxed, fun, and captured moments we love. Her creative eye and attention to detail shows through her work and we are so grateful we met her! Unfortunately the weekend we originally picked to have the photos taken, was the weekend of a blizzard. She immediately picked a new day and rebooked a better day to make sure we got our photos done in time! We are looking forward to booking her for our wedding and are excited to see what she captures on our special day.

    Caroline Gilbody Photography's reply:

    Thank you so much Mariah! I'm so happy you won and we got to work together! I am so obsessed with the photos and so happy you love them! I cannot work with you two again on your wedding!

    Passionate

    She loves what she does and it shows. She’s as happy to be taking the photos as those in them. I can not thank Caroline enough for making our small day feel huge.
