    Gaelen is awesome! He was super fun to work with, and the pictures that we ended up with were perfect. I wasn't super interested in the idea of having engagement pictures done, but Gaelen included them for free with our package, and it was awesome to get the chance to practice taking some pictures with him before the actual wedding. Plus they turned out awesome! Everything came out looking really natural and fun, and not super posed like so many other wedding photographers' pictures can be. Highly recommend!

    Gaelen was AWESOME to work with. I could stop at that statement but I will explain further for all those brides trying to find the right photographer for their big day. From the very beginning he was timely in his responses and super friendly. I was also shocked with the price, in a good way. The quality of his work is definitely worth top dollar, however he kindly doesn't charge that. In addition to wedding pictures he shot my husband and I's engagement shoot. He was very flexible in scheduling and rescheduling because of rain and he had great photography spots and suggestions. We went to a rustic/rural area that he knew of and the pictures came out amazing. He was also so nice and helpful in the poses to do because we are no models. A few weeks before the wedding he reached back out to me asking when and where we would start for the day of the wedding. He arrived at the venue right on time and brought a friend to help take photos which I thought was great! He was super sweet and friendly the whole day but was also non intrusive which is hard balance as a photographer. When we did our group photos he remained cool, calm and collected and was able to wrangle up our families and bridal party effectively and in a timely manner. The photo's turned out so great, we are so happy with them. I could not recommend Gaelen more!

    Gaelen did both our engagement photos and our wedding photos as well. He was so flexible when we had a last minute change in the date of our wedding, thanks to Winter Storm Jonas, and still pulled through and came to take our photos even with the threat of so much snow! We could not be more pleased with how the photos turned out!

    Gaelen was phenomenal to work with for our special day! He made taking pictures easy and fun for both our engagement session and our wedding day. Taking
    Pictures with him was painless for my husband who doesn't normally like taking pictures at all! He was very professional, easy to contact and ask questions to, and made the wedding day stress free. He got great shots throughout the entire day including beautiful shots during the ceremony without Being too distracting. I have recommended him to several friends and we were very pleased with his work!

    Gaelen's quality photography makes looking back on pictures of our special day an amazing experience. I highly recommend him and his services. He took not only our wedding pictures but also did our engagement shoot and we couldn't be more pleased. A++++

    Gaelen is, by far, the easiest, nicest, most talented videographer I have ever had the pleasure to work with. And his work is absolutely gorgeous. He captured every important moment of my SIL and BIL's wedding with such artistic grace and the perfect energy. Gaelen, you will go far in this world with your great talents. I wish you the best and will always refer you!

    Gaelen was great. He made us so comfortable, took truly beautiful pictures and was just so much fun. We really wanted someone who would just be a part of a wedding and not intrusive and that was Gaelen in a nut shell. He got so many great shots, while also making everyone comfortable. We had a great time also doing our engagement shoots and he really helped us get comfortable. He also did a video for us of the ceremony that was great. I would recommend him, he was great to work with and very reasonable.
