Gretchen is a bright gem in the dizzying world of choosing wedding vendors. We have nothing but accolades for this genius! My husband and I didn't want stiff posed photos for our wedding, and we admittedly have a very particular aesthetic that we thought would be hard to match. We scored big time finding Gretchen--a wildly talented photographer, warm, fun, and hilarious person, and an always calming presence during what has the potential to feel like an overwhelming event. She did our engagement and wedding photos, and both times she managed to turn our initially awkward and stiff reactions to the camera into an unbelievably gorgeous set of photos, capturing all the little authentic moments between our more awkward or contrived poses. She has a knack for capturing landscapes, finding the best backdrops for romantic photos that don't feel forced. She was always warmly willing to humor us in our bizarre requests, like photographing us with our microscope. She has a way of making you forget that you're being photographed and instead it feels like you're hanging out with a fun friend. Her photos speak for themselves. We could not be happier with how they turned out, and we are endlessly grateful that we'll be able to remember the special day with Gretchen's art. Photos are a very special way to capture a once in a lifetime experience, and Gretchen is definitely the person you want on your team. We found her pricing so much more reasonable than many other photographers, and the quality of her photos much more I be like with what we were looking for. Gretchen places brilliant emphasis on the importance of kindness throughout her process. In an industry that can quickly feel material and cut throat, she brings such a refreshing and genuine perspective to the wedding world, focusing on the importance of love (while also giving plenty of space for her clients to embrace some inner diva ). We can't recommend Gretchen enough and we are entirely grateful we had the chance to work with her. Now we're looking for more excuses to photograph events and work with her again! read more

We chose Gretchen as our photographer after interviewing about 7 other options. We were really drawn to her style, but after talking to her, fell in love with her story and warmth. She constantly made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. She perfectly captured our ceremony and reception - our reactions, the guests', and of course the dance party! We've been looking back on these photos for months now and simply adore how well she captured everyone's emotions read more

Gretchen is an amazing photographer and I absolutely love all of the amazing & authentic photos she took of us during our wedding day and engagement shoot. Gretchen came highly recommended from a friend for our destination wedding in Healdsburg. We first met her in 2019 to take our engagement photos in Marin. It was fantastic to meet her and see her style in action. And on top of getting great pictures, she was also very fun to spend time with. Fast forward to 2 covid date reschedules and we finally had our wedding in August 2022. Her skill at capturing our special moments really shines through. She shot our non-traditional "fun run" the morning of the wedding, as well as the wedding itself. Her photos are genuine, in the moment and give a real sense of the event, our guest experiences and how special the day really was (especially after a 2 year postponement). We will forever be thankful for these unique digital images. read more

It's hard to put into a review what Gretchen's photos mean to us! I fell in love with Gretchen's photography style the moment I found her site (she is incredibly talented), but even more I was drawn to her story and deeper purpose behind being a photographer. We were planning our wedding and I ached for my brother who I knew would not be there after passing away a few years prior. After reading Gretchen's bio I knew our big day would be captured with genuine love as she too understood the bigger meaning behind a moment and a memory. And that was just the start to our amazing experience working with Gretchen and Danielle. They were professional from start to finish, but also SO KIND! I was more of a DIY bride and she guided me through everything from our timeline and photo lists to advice for minimize photo sessions so that we could spend more time with our guests. What I love most about Gretchen's vision is that she focuses on true candid moments rather than awkward posed photos that we've all seen a million times before. The truth is, I wish I got to talk to her more at our wedding, but it's proof they blended in so seamlessly that at times we forgot they were even there. They made us feel so natural and at ease, which allowed us to focus on our friends and family and soak in the moments all while knowing they were being beautifully captured. It has been 9 months since our wedding, and I'm still in awe of all the gorgeous photos! My family and I have gone through the collection many times, laughing and recapping what a spectacular day it was. We've already made a few photo books as gifts and they turned out beautifully. These photos will last us forever and I couldn't imagine a better person to have been there on such a meaningful day. Thank you Gretchen, you are one of a kind and I am deeply grateful for everything! read more

My partner and I had a wonderful experience with Gretchen and her second shooter, Danielle. They were a pleasure to work with. We are not terribly comfortable in front of the camera, and they made us feel very at ease. The photos are beautiful and perfectly capture the magic of our wedding day - the final gallery was a nice mix of venue/details, formal portraits, and amazing candids. They also shot a mix of film and digital. Working with Gretchen was one of the best decisions we made. read more

We worked with Gretchen as our wedding photographer and are extremely pleased with her communication, level of service, and the final result! Upon receiving the gallery we are OVER THE MOON with Gretchen capturing moments big and small, the intimate details, and treasured family and friends. We're so grateful for Gretchen being an important part of our day, capturing it flawlessly, and we would highly recommend working with her. read more

Two words: HIRE GRETCHEN! Gretchen is absolutely fabulous and I've recommended her to anyone and everyone who will listen. We booked Gretchen for both our (now postponed to 2021 due to COVID) large winery wedding and our intimate elopement this year. When researching wedding photographers, we were struck by Gretchen's ability to capture authenticity and tenderness and the evocative quality and composition of her shots. After our first intro call, Gretchen's kindness, warmth, and genuine interest in our relationship, values, and love story sealed the deal. Her approach is not staged or posed, instead she seeks to capture you and your partner's love in its truest, most organic form. She strikes the perfect balance of active coaching (e.g. catching the right lighting, framing the shot) and blending into the background. She was also super flexible and up for anything, expertly finding and capturing amazing vignettes at an unfamiliar location (SF Botanical Gardens). Gretchen made our elopement so so special and we cannot wait to have her shoot our big wedding next year as well! read more

To the moon & back a million times over. This is how much my husband and I love Gretchen and her impeccable work! Her style is refreshing, romantic and like nothing else we've seen in the wedding photography scene. From the first e-mail, to numerous phone calls and endless questions we asked, Gretchen was warm, genuine and like an old friend ready to help and guide us every step of the way. On the big day, she was able to help my husband and I stay focused on each other while she took care of the timeline and details. Gretchen was able to tell the story of our wedding day from start to finish the way that our guests and we remember it: lively, joyous and full of love. Every photo was exactly how we pictured it and so much more! A candid moment caught in time exuding so much emotion and intimacy - that's what every photo showed. She didn't miss a thing and even caught some surprise moments! Our first date was at a Starbucks in San Francisco, and Gretchen snapped a few shots of us walking in front of one (we didn't even know - thank you for this gem!). There are so many wonderful things to say about Gretchen and could go on and on forever. Having her on our side for the wedding day is something we won't forget or ever regret. We hope to work with Gretchen again in the future for other milestones! read more

We are blown away by Gretchen's work! She is very professional, super energetic and passionate at what she does. We absolutely loved photography style and the pictures came out stunning. Gretchen and second shooter Danielle made our SF city hall experince very smooth and stress-free by providing very detailed itinerary suited to our needs. Highly recommend!! read more

Where do I even start? Gretchen did our engagement photos. I can't do justice to her incredible artistry (seriously, the most beautiful images I've ever seen -- so romantic and never cheesy). When I look at them they make me laugh, smile, and think, dang, my husband and I are hot! Besides the work itself, she was a dream to work with, keeping the mood light and fun and helping us feel authentic in what could have been an awkward experience-- not even close! Somehow she knew what to say to evoke real emotion, and it never felt like we were "posing". We will treasure these images the rest of our lives. I would jump at any opportunity to work with Gretchen again. read more

WOW! Just WOW! If I could give more than 5 stars I would! Gretchen was the best person we could have found to capture our wedding day! By some miracle I found her in my search for the perfect candid stylist all the way from Wisconsin. She was the needle in the haystack that we were searching for, and she said yes! She was full of advice, excitement, guidance, and accommodation. Though our wedding was in the middle of the January storms that wreaked havoc on the state of California, Gretchen and Danielle were there for us emotionally, realistically, and artistically. They put in so much extra effort to provide us with a magical day. When we finally met in person we were instantly calmed of our nerves, excited for our moment, and shown the beauty of the day. They were very skilled and focused and always able to guide us into the perfect shots and frame us in beautiful, candid moments. When we got our photos back my husband and I spent the night looking through them and I was just in a constant alternation between screaming and crying with joy! These photos aren't just about memories, they are about our feelings and we cant imagine that anyone else could have captured the day and our love quite like Gretchen. We are eternally grateful she chose to be our photographer! read more

I cannot recommend Gretchen highly enough. Every single thing about our experience with her exceeded my expectations of what a wedding photographer would be like. She was not only fast to communicate via email, but she was funny and warm. Her pricing is phenomenal. She answered all my questions quickly and thoroughly. We clicked instantly on our vision and opinions for our photos. She was a source of confidence and calm leading up to our wedding day. On the day of, she arrived without fanfare and instantly blended in as a natural part of the proceedings. She was unobtrusive, smiling, and thoughtful. She provided gentle direction but didn't try to steer things in any particular way. She just captured the natural progression of the moments, and the results are stunning. She made my family feel completely at ease. The photos are better than I'd dared to hope for. Everyone is in love with them, myself included. I'm getting lots of requests for prints, and compliments that use words like "timeless," "elegant," "artistic," "unique," and "perfect." We wanted our wedding photos to be different, and reflective of who we are, yet timeless and elegant. And that's what we got! If there's ever an occasion for me to hire Gretchen again as a photographer, I'd do so in a heartbeat. My only complaint is that now that I'm married, we aren't working together anymore! read more

I chose Gretchen because her work stood out to me. My wife and I had looked through a few photographers and they all seemed to be the same typical wedding photos you would see on Instagram. Stereotypical shots that are supposed to represent the happiest days in people's lives but they all seemed lifeless. Then we found Gretchen. Her photos had an editorial Vibe to them that seemed to capture exact moments in time. THAT is what you look for not only in a wedding photographer but in someone who is a TRUE PHOTOGRAPHER. Gretchen truly has a gift in what she does and I'm certain that if she were to venture out of wedding photography she would also find tremendous success. She was an absolute pleasure to work with and we can't say enough good things about her. read more

Absolutely don't think twice about hiring Gretchen. From the start, photography was one the the most important things to us in our wedding planning process - it is the only way we have to capture the emotion and memories of the day, and it's the photos that will stay with you for years to come. I was so tired of seeing overdone boring "wedding photography" that as soon as I saw Gretchen's work I was in love. Gretchen's photography is so beautiful: perfectly composed, beautiful use of light, and above all she is able to capture emotion and interaction in such a natural way. She is a joy to have by your side on your wedding day. Whoever you hire as a photographer is going to be with you A LOT so this is super important. She has such a calm, wise & thoughtful presence that not only didn't distract, but added to the feeling of the day. Looking through our wedding photos for the first time with my new husband (!) was like re-living that day in the most beautiful way, and living for the first time all the moments she captured that we missed. She really gave us a gift that we'll treasure forever. These are now my absolute favorite photos of myself, my husband, and my family. We feel so lucky to have worked with Gretchen, and now we're always trying to think of opportunities to be able to work with her again :) read more

Hiring Gretchen to be the photographer at our wedding was one of the best decisions we made in putting the event together. She is a true professional. We had multiple calls before the event-she advised us on timelines, getting ready, group photos, and more. On the day of the wedding, she not only took gorgeous photos but also facilitated the flow of the schedule as our day-of coordinator was kind of MIA. Gretchen is kind and warm. She makes you feel comfortable in front of the lens. On top of this, her photos are STUNNING. Like, knock-out amazing. Viewing the photos after she had put our album together took my breath away. If she's available, hire Gretchen right now. You will be grateful, as we are. read more

Oh, Gretchen. Gretchen is incredible. She is truly talented as a photographer, but beyond that, she is an amazing human being. When searching for a photographer, my fiancé and I met with numerous options. I wanted something more than happy go lucky average Instagram photos. I tried to describe the photos I wanted to a photographer, and she actually told me to check our Gretchen. I browsed her Instagram and it was love at first sight. Her photos are real, raw, emotional, artistic, and beautiful. We did the engagement photos and we both had a blast, and loved the photos. The wedding photos were perfect. Absolutely perfect. If you look at Gretchen's work and like it, if you like the way it makes you feel, and if it makes you smile and swoon and sometimes cry, call Gretchen. It was the best wedding decision we made. She is genuine, open, and oh so talented. Thank you Gretchen, from the bottom of my heart, for providing us two collections of photographs we will cherish for a lifetime. If we do a future maternity shoot, I'll be calling you! read more

Gretchen's photography is nothing less than extraordinary! We were initially drawn to Gretchen's photography style- soft, dreamy, and romantic- and we could not be happier with how our photos turned out. Once we began our introductory Zoom call with Gretchen, it confirmed what we had already been feeling- we needed to lock her in for our date! Gretchen has strong communication skills and was easy to work with leading up to the wedding. We were immediately at ease knowing we had her coming! On the day of, Gretchen and her second shooter, Danielle, arrived early to get acclimated and were warm and friendly. My partner and I don't take a lot of photos of ourselves together and were pretty nervous about how we would pose and photograph in general, let alone with so much pressure on us on a special day. Gretchen and Danielle put us at such ease- the poses felt incredibly natural and the photographers blended in so well with our group we almost forgot we were being photographed. Our photos are truly magazine-worthy and we can't wait to enjoy them for years to come! Thank you so much, Gretchen Gause Photography! read more

I cannot say enough good things about Gretchen! Not only are our photos absolute perfection- I truly cannot stop looking at them, but Gretchen is the most wonderful human. Gretchen was supportive, positive, and beyond helpful during every phase of our wedding planning process. Gretchen captured the most beautiful, raw moments from our wedding day, and my husband and I are forever grateful to have such special images to relive our day through. My husband and I highly recommend Gretchen for your photography needs! read more

When reflecting on the experience of working with Gretchen, the words that come to mind are MAGICAL and WARMTH! Working with Gretchen was an absolute dream! From our first phone call, and every single communication after that was deep, thoughtful, and warm. When my partner and I were looking for a photographer for our July 2020 wedding, we both wanted someone who captured a romanticism with a photojournalistic approach and someone who is warm, honest and embraced a level of vulnerability. Gretchen is all those things and more! When we stumbled across Gretchen's website, we were struck by and drawn to her level of vulnerability and depth. Her photos reflect honesty and intimacy that are true extensions of herself. When we spoke for the first time, it was clear that she was the right fit for us. She held our hands each step along the way, embraced an open partnership of collaboration, and honored our values. Each leg of communication was reflective and rich with kindness and integrity. On the day of, we felt held by the experience and a natural trust in her ability. Gretchen is like a ninja -- seamlessly weaving in and out of encounters effortlessly -- A true professional! And, when we received our photos, we were blown away! My wife and I had to shift our plans because of COVID-19. We could not get married at the Berekely Botanical Gardens as planned and pivoted to an intimate backyard ceremony. We are so grateful that Gretchen was still able to photograph our day because she captured the most beautiful and intimate moments, exceeding our expectations despite the limitations and circumstances. Unequivocally, Gretchen is our photograph for LIFE!!! Mutually, we cannot wait for other milestones simply so we can be graced by the gifted and soulful nature of Gretchen's presence. Like others have said, HIRE HER -- immediately if possible. You will be glad you did and feel enveloped by her warmth and talent. PFL -- Photographer for life :) read more

Gretchen and her team are amazing!!! We were looking for someone who could capture all the little special moments and not make it feel too staged or awkward. She took the time to get to know us and it really shows in her work. They worked tirelessly even in the rain! We did both our engagement shoot and the wedding with her and both turned out better than we expected! Easy communication and very organized too. We would highly recommend her! read more

Gretchen is absolutely amazing, not only as a photographer, but as a person. She is personable, friendly, and is one of those people who radiates positive energy. On top of that, her use of light and shadow is far superior to many other photographers, particularly if you are looking for a wedding photographer - she captures intimacy in a way that many other photographers cannot. What stood out to us about her work is that most wedding photographers take the "light and bright" approach - very exposed / over-exposed wedding photos that don't utilize light effectively and artistically to capture the moment. She's also very easy to work with - my husband doesn't know how to smile for photos (think Chandler on Friends - he does more of an awkward grimace), and Gretchen captured so many great photos of him with a real smile on his face by getting us to laugh and interact in a way that didn't look awkward on camera. She is super fast on email (communication is so important!) and super fast with her turn around time (we received our wedding photos just 1.5 weeks after the big event!), and we've heard nothing but compliments about how beautiful her photographs are. Your wedding photographer is an investment that you should not skimp on, and Gretchen was 10000% worth the investment for our wedding. If you are on a budget, you should still consider reaching out to her because she will do her very best to work out something that you are comfortable with. Her work is amazing and her prices are very fair. Thank you Gretchen, and I hope we can work with you again! read more

As good as it gets.... Actually, BETTER! Gretchen is AMAZING! The 1st time I saw her work was on a friends FB Page. I immediately asked my friend..."who did your photography... Cuz that's EXACTLY who I've been looking for!" YES, it was our dear Gretchen! She is an ABSOLUTE gem! The minute we met, I felt as if we were old friends! So easy to talk to, listened to my ideas, laughed a lot & she knew exactly "the look" I was going for! Her energy is pure, her heart is huge & her talent is OUTSTANDING!!! She did the photography & created my website www.skinloungehealdsburg.com (Gretchen was always on the same page with my style & ideas) she is so creative & has such an eye! She comes ups with the most amazing photo's.... And not just the "big picture", but the little things that create artistic images! ***THIS, is what I love about her! *** She also photographed my son's 16th "Open-Mic/Jam Session" Surprise Party! Of course I was going to have her do this.... (Oh... also pre-hired HER for his Graduation pics come 2015! LOL) She captured such timeless images of my son, his friends, & our family! Photographs that will always bring us right back to that momentous b-day! read more

My husband and I do not have enough wonderful things to say about Gretchen! We found her via a friend who used her for her own wedding, and we had no idea what to expect (besides seeing my friend's beautiful wedding photos). We first met Gretchen in person for our Couple's Session, which my husband and I were both totally freaked out about, not ever having professional photos done before. Gretchen was AMAZING at making us feel comfortable, guiding us ever so slightly but still capturing our natural movements and affection with each other. She was so sweet, kind, professional, and truly an artist and it showed in the photos. Now the wedding is really where our jaws literally dropped to the floor. Not only was she an absolute JOY to have around all day, and super helpful with misc. items (like calling out a wrinkle in my dress I missed, or ordering us gals more champagne), but she just executed on her/our vision flawlessly. All family and bridal party photos were a breeze, and after that we barley noticed her! Besides getting pulled for sunset photos, which I am eternally grateful for as those are some of my favorite photos of the day, she let us enjoy our moments with our guests and each other. When we received our photos, my husband and I were blown away! Our cheeks hurt from smiling for the two hours we spent looking through the photos - she captured everything perfectly. The vibe, the colors, the warmth - I could see each happy moment in the pictures being played out in my mind exactly how I remembered it. Bottom line, Gretchen is a class act and her photos will make you weep with happiness. I can't wait to hire her again for family photos some day! read more

Hiring Gretchen was truly one of the best decisions we made for our small elopement ceremony (during COVID times). First of all, she was a joy to work with. She is kind and flexible and helped us structure our ceremony so that we would get the best shots and lighting. She came early to scope out good places to shoot. She made us feel so comfortable (even though we had never taken professional photos and were nervous about it). We even forgot that she was there at times! Her photos are so breathtaking-- she captures so much emotion in her photography-- we couldn't believe it. read more

I can't say enough good things or words of gratitude for Gretchen. Her photos speak for themselves but what you don't see is how excellent she is at capturing them. It felt like she was invisible but always there to catch any special moment. She's so warm and kind and completely put us at ease. With minimal direction she was able to help us get exactly the type of photos we wanted. We really did have a budget wedding but knew the one place we wanted to work with an experienced person was for the photos we would have forever. Not only is Gretchen's pricing reasonable, it's worth every penny and more. read more

Gretchen is a 10 star service on a 5 star rating system! We recently hired Gretchen as our wedding photographer and I just couldn't be happier with the level of expertise, professionalism and elite service she provided. There is soo much to say about her I dont even know where to begin. Both my wife and I are shy taking photos and have no clue what to do, how to stand, how to look to make our special day come out perfect. Lets face it, its awkward and clumsy trying to figure that out on your own. Gretchen was there for us every step of the way with the right level of coaching and nurturing when guiding us, making us feel in the moment and comfortable, at times I forgot I was taking wedding photos and just felt connected with my bride and Gretchen created this space for us to just be us. It couldn't be more perfect the way she was there taking our pictures but made it seem like we had our own private space. A guy even scolded us for standing in some flowers for this perfect picture we really wanted and she didn't even flinch and brought us right back to that special place. Along the way she showed us pictures of how she captured the light and setting and I was totally blown away with even the raw photos on her camera. On our engagement photos we made the mistake of hiring a cheap photographer. Gretchen's raw photos on her camera were exponentially better than the finished and retouched engagement photos we received from another photographer. I kick myself that we didn't find Gretchen until after our engagement photos. Thankfully we found her in time for our wedding! I'm the kind of guy that is very picky and particular of how I want things done when I pay for them, I am almost always regretful of how much I pay for day to day services, if you don't believe me just read other reviews I have put on yelp. But with Gretchen I felt the exact opposite, I feel in debt to her with what she was able to provide us. Do Not Make a Mistake in hiring another photographer, if you dont hire Gretchen you will be disappointed. Gretchen was a significant factor in creating the wedding both my wife and I dreamed about. You only have one shot at this, its only 1 unique day you have for your wedding and ceremony, and photos are the only tangible thing you will have to take with you and remember the special moment and day. In hiring Gretchen I feel I gained a family member and friend who shared our special day with us. Thanks Gretchen, you are amazing and we couldn't be more thankful for what you created for us on our special day on 11-9-14! read more

Gretchen is absolutely amazing. She's incredibly artistic, and continues to blow me alway every time I work with her!! Not only is she a natural at capturing candid and precious moments, she's also so helpful with details of the wedding day!! She's so calm and such a pleasure to work with, I highly recommend her for my fellow brides' weddings!! read more

Gretchen is an "artist's artist". She reminds me of a modern day "Henri Cartier Breson" and has an incredibly deep understanding of art, and what makes an emotion evoked by an image. I have known her since high school (that was when the age of the dinosaurs was around :) and have always known her to be the "artsy" one. I would hire her ONLY if you want a true leader in the photography world that would surely capture you in the most beautiful way. read more

Gretchen was the perfect photographer for our special day. We had to work within a pretty tight time frame at our venue but she was incredibly communicative and accommodating. She was always where we needed and wanted her. More than that, she got so many amazing candid shots of our friends and family and knew just how to find the perfect light for our formal shots. In particular, the photos from our sunset session are ones we'll cherish for the rest of our lives. She really captured the energy and love and magic of the day. read more

Gretchen photographed my son's, my daughter's and my neice's weddings. Her work is absolutely amazing. She is friendly, professional and so comfortable to be with. Then I decided that I wanted her to capture the wonderful relationship I have with my husband since we never really had a nice set of wedding pics. I was wanting her to capture our life on film, lifestyle shots that show our daily life together. My husband was a little uneasy with the thought but she was able to create a comfortable environment for him and the next thing I know he was really having fun having his photos taken. She was able to produce exactly what I wanted. She listened closely to me, made us feel at ease and did everything she had promised to do. We love her work. read more

Planning a wedding is supposed to be a very stressful process (or so I've heard). That's one of the reasons my fiancee (now husband) and I decided to elope. We had a destination wedding in Idaho (we're from Texas). I found GD Company on-line. I was a little nervous about using a photographer neither I nor anyone I know had ever met but the photos posted on her site and her friendly manner charmed me. When we met on the day of the ceremony, she had arrived early to scout the location. She also brought fun props to use after the ceremony. I really appreciated her attention to detail and thoughtfulness. The day was wonderful and she was everything I could have hoped for (a fact that was affirmed when I saw the photos she posted early the next morning). She really captured the intimate feel we wanted that day and I cannot wait to see the rest of the photos! I could sing her praises for a another few paragraphs but I'll save the words and suggest you look at her photos and see for yourself. read more

I highly recommend Gretchen Gause! We were married in a private ceremony on the grounds of an inn in Healdsburg. Gretchen's name was on a list provided by the inn. From our first phone conversation to the delivery of the photos, working with Gretchen was an absolute pleasure. She listened. She supported and encouraged us. She went out of her way to visit the venue prior to the day as it was new to her. Gretchen's photographs perfectly captured the joy and intimacy of the occasion. I know we will revisit them often to relive that wonderful day. The hardest part is picking our favorites to frame! read more

Gretchen is absolutely amazing. I can't say enough wonderful things about her and, most important, her work. We planned our Healdsburg wedding from Portland, OR and found Gretchen through Yelp. We first chose her because of all the glowing reviews here - then met with her only 3 days before our wedding. She was so calm, professional, and made us feel so comfortable that we knew we made the right choice. The day of our wedding, both her and Danielle were amazing. They found the perfect balance between traditional posed photos and natural candid photos. The pictures exceeded any expectations we had and so accurately told the story of our day. I'm certain we'll use these to relive the day over and over! read more

I have a wedding this July and Gretchen has been amazing working with my fiance and I. I'm not the first person to feel comfortable in front of a camera and was really nervous the day of the engagement shoot. That did not last very long! Before my fiance and I knew it we were taking photos and having a blast with the photographer! Her easy going personality and good sense of humor made us feel like she wasn't even there to shoot. Now with 75 days left (YIKES!), photography is the last thing I have to worry about. read more
