A Little More About Me and My Why:

I stumbled upon photography in college when I got my first digital camera. I enjoyed it mostly as a hobby but as time went on, I started discovering my passion for the art. For years, after college and getting married to the love of my life, I entertained the idea of doing it for a living but then pulled the trigger and officially launched Francesca G Photography in 2018. Since then, it's been a journey of growing, getting to know so many wonderful souls, and making friends along the way, one laugh at a time!

When it comes to photography, I have one main quote: "I want to capture you just as you are."

Each person, family, couple, etc., has their own story to tell, and I'm here to document your special moments and milestones in a way that is unique to you and your story. And the truth is, some people enjoy the simplistic approach to a photo session (i.e. "smile!"), and then some desire to get out and have a full blown adventure while being photographed. I LOVE both!

I'm a lover of candids and wholeheartedly believe that the spontaneous moments are the best! I am passionate about shooting the real, organic moments and aim to document the emotions that surface. During your session, I'll talk to you, ask you questions that encourage you to reflect, and maybe hug those around you a little tighter or steal a kiss from your love, all unprompted. I find so often that I don't have to give many prompts because people are enjoying what is happening in that moment that I'm just snapping away and capturing the most raw, sweet interactions. (Let me tell you a secret... those tend to be the best shots!)

If I'm photographing your wedding, I'm not just your photographer but also an extra helping hand. Need help putting your shoes on, someone to arrange your veil, hold your bouquet, change outfits between the ceremony and reception, bustling your dress? I'm your assistant and hype girl for the day, constantly laughing, keeping things bright and celebrating with you on your special day!

I love what I do because I’m always meeting new, incredible people with amazing stories... stories of pain, love, loss, struggle, healing, and triumph. And I have the privilege of documenting their stories! Even outside of my business, I've heard many testimonies of lives being change, and I believe those stories are worth telling…and, just maybe, your story can make a difference in someone’s life!!

If your idea of adventure is in the mountains, by a river, dancing in the sunset, wandering through the fields, I'm with you ever step of the way!

If your idea of adventure is in your home with your loved ones enjoying those priceless moments, let's get comfortable and have the best time!
