Hi I’m Gabrielle!

I have been a professional photographer for almost 2 decades... wow, that makes me feel old, haha.

I’m located in San Diego, CA! After receiving my degree in Photography, my passion led me to photograph people… mostly couples, families and corporate events. I love what I do and feel so blessed that this is my job.

Some fun stuff...

  • My son Reed is my moon and stars. He teaches me every day what unconditional love is. My husband Ryan is my best friend, my person

    He supports me, my dreams and I’m forever grateful.

  • I love Hawaii and I love to travel. I will make it to France (soon!)

  • Nature is the place that calms me. I hit the reset for my creativity when I head outdoors.

  • What I also love… to dance, art galleries, hiking, belly laughs, camping, hanging with my fam and watching sunsets.

  • I am an extremely punctual person. I like to arrive early to a session and scout the location.

  • I know when it's time to go-with-the-flow and when it's time to take charge (in the nicest way possible). I am very much a “people person” and my clients enjoy working with me.

I look forward to connecting with you!

FAMILIES

My approach to family photography is a mix of candid real-life moments and pretty posed portraits. I find especially with small children, there has to be a relaxed atmosphere and go-with-the-flow mentality. We are guaranteed to get some great shots if we relax and have fun!

  • full family session- offered year round, consists of a 1 hour photo session at the location of your choice within San Diego. You will receive an extended online gallery to choose your images from. We do a mix of group shots, individuals and smaller groupings. Starting at $450

  • family mini session- mini sessions are typically offered only once a year, in the Fall. Mini sessions are scheduled back to back and last 25 min long. I focus on getting a few great shots of the family & children. These shorter sessions are meant to provide a few updated portraits for the wall or holiday card. Starting at $300… Contact me to be notified of the next upcoming mini sessions

NEWBORNS

“Life-style” newborn sessions are done in-home and typically last 1.5 hours. I highly recommend scheduling your newborn session within the first 3 weeks of baby's life. It's best if you contact me before your due date so we can set a tentative shooting date for once the baby is born. I bring some minimal props - some wraps, blankets, a basket or prop- and after a few solo shots of baby I like to take a more lifestyle approach. We focus family interacting with the new baby and get some timeless shots in your own natural environment. Siblings welcome. $600

I also offer "Fresh 48 sessions" where you book your photo session at the hospital with your newborn. So brand new!

MATERNITY

Celebrate your growing family with a beautiful maternity session! Pregnancy is such a special time and I love photographing the joy and anticipation of a new baby on the way. And that bump! $450
