My name is Gillian, and I'm an Austin, TX based photographer and Texas native. I have a knack for finding the most magical and intimate settings to frame life's most cherished moments. My clients describe my work as true-to-life, full of joy, authentic, and fun! While I have chased the thrill of documenting events and cities across the world, it's the beauty of intimate gatherings, the sweet tenderness of engagements, and the free-spirited allure of elopements that truly sets my heart aglow. As an experienced empathetic storyteller, I am dedicated to capturing the truth of your story and illuminating the spark that make it uniquely yours.

Anyone can take a picture, so what sets me apart from anyone else? Why should you hire me over a cheaper photographer? Let me answer those questions through describing my process in which I capture the most amazing photographs. I don’t just want you to hire me as your photographer. I want you to hire me as your visual storyteller. Through listening to your story I am able to understand who you are so I can better tell your story through my photography. I look forward to getting to know you, your partner, and/or your family. Listening to your story is just the start of the relationship I love to have with my clients. When I get to know my customers more as friends then clients then I can put them at the center of their life story through the images I create. I strive to surpass my client's expectations with a process that is engaging and fun for everyone. Lastly, I love how my work allows me to create unique memories from a shared perspective of your narrative and my life experiences. I look forward to meeting you and always welcome any questions you might have!
