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.

Classic, Summer Wedding at Brookside Country Club

Macungie, PA

Jeannine and Ray finally tied the knot on a gorgeous & sunshine-filled summer day at Brookside Country Club in Macungie. Their marriage was extra sweet because it not only united the two of them but also their families, as they now share four children together!!

The whole day was filled with joy and celebration without and ounce of stress. Jeannine, Ray and all their loved ones were so excited for this kind couple to be making it official, and it showed throughout the day! There was never a shortage of smiles or laughter and I am so honored to have documented such a jubilant day.

Brookside Country Club

This golf course country club was a great place to host a wedding! There are beautiful landscaped areas for portrait photography of the couple and wedding party. The outdoor ceremony venue overlooked not only the golf course but also the mountains beyond. The cocktail hour space was a hybrid of indoors and outdoors, great for allowing guests to spread out. The reception room had large windows on opposite sides, allowing plenty of daylight to flow in. There was also a super high, barn-style ceiling with gorgeous chandeliers hanging above the dance floor!! My favorite part, however, is the few minutes where the setting sun shines through the west-facing windows and casts a gorgeous golden glow on everyone & everything in the room!

Simple, Neutral Design

Jeannine chose a combination of white flowers and greenery as the main decor for the wedding. The simplicity of the florals and lack of added elements symbolized the simple yet powerful reason for the celebration: Jeannine and Ray’s love for each other. The neutral color palette of the decor allowed for the attention of the day to be placed on the couple & their loved ones instead of any added elements. I also loved the single gold “R” cake topper to symbolize their new shared last name – classic and elegant all at once!

“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!”
