My mission as a wedding photographer in Philadelphia is to help happy couples celebrate life's biggest joys with high quality photos and a dang good time. I believe the experience is just as important as the photos and that you deserve beautiful, lasting memories.

Hey!! I'm Gabriella.

Romantic date night ideas!

Are you and/or your hunny hopeless romantics? Cool, cuz SAME. I believe in romanticizing your life and your relationship (because if you don’t do it yourself, no one else will do it for you!!).

Check out these ideas for a super romantic engagement session (or just a really sweet date night)!!

  • Go on a picnic … but each of you get the other person their dinner. Write each other love letters & read them out loud to each other over a glass of wine (or a flask of whiskey). Go pick wild flowers. Bring a speaker and dance to your favorite songs as the sun goes down. (PLEASE let me photograph an engagement session like this. I’m tearing up just writing this out.)
  • Do a scavenger hunt around town! (Either one of y’all create a hunt for the other, or allow me to create one if y’all are Philly people). Let me tag along as you drive to your scavenger hunt locations and capture your giddiness along the way. End the day at your favorite ice cream place and eat it while sitting on the hood of your car.
  • Dress up to the nines … and go to your favorite pizza place. Live out the contradiction! Drive down to the lake and sit on the dock, drinking PBRs and skipping rocks … all the while being dressed up like a famous couple out on the town in NYC.
  • Watch the sunset from the trunk of your car. Let me tag along so I can capture y’all singing your favorite music with the windows down, and bring a blanket to wrap around each other as the setting sun lowers the temperature. Pack some chocolate and sparkling water and have the time of your life 🙂

“Hiring Gabriella as our photographer was the single best decision we made on wedding day. Because we had an intimate elopement at town hall, it was important to us to capture the small details and intimate moments in a way that we could look back on our day and feel like we are reliving it. Well, Gabriella’s work does just that. She exceeded our expectations and we could not be happier with our gallery. She gave updates and clear expectations along the way so that we were never left wondering what next steps were, and was timely with getting sneak peaks and the full gallery back to us. We are an introverted couple who is not used to being in front of the camera, and Gabriella was super patient and made us feel at ease throughout the whole day. Her communication style is to be seriously commended. She also went above and beyond to scope out of the venue and found the perfect spot for us to do our private vows in. We don’t have a single negative thing to say about our experience. If you are considering working with Gabriella for your special day, do it!!

We LOVED working with Gabriella for our Wedding photography! From our first video call, she made us feel totally at ease about the whole process, and it was clear she had a ton of experience. We do not consider ourselves very photogenic, but Gabriella got AMAZING pictures from our Wedding and an Engagement shoot. She’s fun, friendly, professional, and everything you need in a Wedding photographer (or for any other event). Cannot recommend her highly enough!

“Gabriella is the BEST photographer and we could not have asked for anyone better to capture our proposal! I had intentions of interviewing multiple photographers, but after seeing her work and talking to her over the phone, I immediately booked with her. Her passion for photography is so evident. She goes above and beyond to make your shoot about YOU. She does a great job of taking control and guiding you with poses that you will love, and her candid shots are unbelievable. She had a smile on her face the entire time and we felt like a close friend was there doing this for us. Would recommend her 100 times out of 100!

Gabriella was absolutely amazing. She made the photography session so easy and effortless. Her personality is so warm and inviting, she made us feel so so comfortable during these pictures. Gabriella went above and beyond for us and I’m so grateful my significant other found her as a photographer. I would highly recommend!”
