If i could give Gabriela more stars, I would!! She was absolutely incredible in every part from our consultation, pre-wedding calls, engagement session, and during our actual day. ...
I initially gravitated to Gabriela because of her photography and editing style. I love the way she captured other people's special moments. We knew we needed to hire her as soon as we talked to her. She has the most amazing personality that perfectly fits the important role she plays during a wedding. She was vibrant, positive, and energetic. She will be your biggest hype person to ensure you are feeling good and having fun even if you do not know what to do in front of a camera.
Her energy was palpable during our wedding, in the best way ever. I come from a big family so I knew family portraits were going to be time consuming and challenging. Gabriela handled in like the true professional she is. She was quick and efficient while being polite and friendly to all our family and guests. We had several people come up to us afterwards complimenting how amazing Gabriela was!! Her being able to communicate with our families in both English and Spanish was the best. With our mixed culture, this part was so so important to us. It made the experience so much better for everyone.
We are obsessed with our engagement photos and our wedding sneak peaks (which we got less than a week later)! We love how she captured us and our loved ones. We CANNOT wait to get the full gallery.
I will always speak highly of Gaby. She is truly a one of a kind, talented photographer. We were beyond thrilled we were able to use Snapshots by Gabriela for our wedding. As soon ...
as I saw her portfolio, I knew I wanted to book with her. We were flexible with our wedding date to make sure we could have her as part of our day. From the moment we met her, she exceeded our every expectation. She's incredibly professional but also brings kindness and warmth to her sessions and meetings. The photos are nothing short of breathtaking and timeless. She has the magical ability to capture all the details, big and small like joy of our friend and families faces, quiet moments. Each image shares our love and joy and all our emotions. Honestly, I've lost count how many times we've found ourselves scrolling through our gallery. If you're looking for a photographer, Gaby is your person! We feel so lucky to have had her by our side :)
Book Gaby NOW! If I had to go back a million times & book a wedding photographer, I would choose her every. single. time. Everything about Gaby as our wedding photographer was an o...
utstanding experience – the photos, every interaction with her, all the planning & logistics she handled. Any smaller photo shoots I might do in the future, she’ll be 1st on my list.
1st is the most obvious: her photography is stunning. It’s true to life, light & airy, and vibrant & bright to highlight the joy of the day. Her eye for good angles, lighting, magical photos, capturing the emotion of the moment – all of it – is unmatched. She’s truly an artist. I’m not a picture kind of person but she made me feel like a model haha. Then there’s all the stuff you don’t see behind the scenes, the editing. There were so many little no-see-em bugs at my ceremony that my arms/neck/entire back (open back dress…LOL) had big red splotches for the rest of the day, it looked like I had hives. She edited out every bug bite 1-by-1 on all the photos 😭 I can’t imagine how long it took to do that!! I’m blown away with how good the photos turned out & they’re a gift we’ll cherish forever.
She’s also just a wonderful person to be around! She’s so bubbly & fun & kind, she makes you feel so comfortable behind the camera even if you’ve never done photos like this before (we hadn’t!). She sent the most thoughtful care package shortly after booking with the cutest things – a personalized ring dish with our initials, a Snapshots by Gabriela canvas bag, a cute “diamond” pen, etc. She sent a “coffee on me” gift card a couple weeks before the wedding with the sweetest note. She spreads positivity & joy :) which is exactly the kind of person you want around you on your wedding day.
Last, all the logistical stuff, which isn’t the exciting or glamorous part but obviously it’s so important for a wedding. No question about it, Gaby is a professional & she knows what the heck she’s doing. It was such a comfort & a HUGE relief off my shoulders because she had everything organized. From our first video chat answering all our questions before booking, to her pre-wedding questionnaire we filled out to give her all the info she needed, to creating her timeline & then coordinating it with my other vendors, she’s an expert. I had absolutely zero worries. My day-of coordinator said that Gaby was her favorite photographer she’s worked with because she was so on top of everything. Gaby’s seen so many weddings that she understands how they work; she knew how to incorporate everything I wanted & suggested ideas that I hadn’t thought of. She also provided us with a list of her recommended vendors that she’s worked with before, & that’s actually how we booked our videographer!
Gaby provided so much value to our big day. Like I said above, the photos are the obvious thing, but there’s SO much more that Gaby does to make everything perfect and seamless.
So. Like I said. Book her now!!!! I cannot recommend her enough!! <3
PS: The engagement photo shoot which is included was a HUGE PLUS! Not only did we got to meet Gaby in person, but having the opportunity to do a smaller photo shoot with her as a “test run” for the big day was perfect. We got a feel for how she worked, which made us so much more comfortable with the all the poses & photographs on our actual wedding day. It helped get rid of some jitters! Just another thing on the long list of things she does to deliver an incredible experience!!
Gabby is incredibly talented and an absolute joy to work with. I would book her 100x over. She really takes time to get to know her clients and feels like a friend by the time the ...
wedding day comes. I can’t recommend Snapshots by Gabriela enough!!
I knew I wanted Gaby as my photographer from the first conversation I had with her. She is so bubbly, fun and makes you feel like a queen everyday. Her work is STUNNING and she mak...
es you feel so comfortable in front of the camera. When she arrived at my Airbnb on my wedding day I ran over and gave her the biggest hug because she wasn't just my photographer she became my friend throughout the process. I HIGHLY recommend this beautiful soul!
Snapshots by Gabriela was truly was our favorite vendor for our wedding. Gaby was so professional, sweet and helpful through the entire process. Our engagement session with her was...
amazing and planning was smooth! After that, a couple months before our wedding, she helped us with timeline planning and to creating a shot list. We did not have a wedding planner so this was beyond helpful. At our wedding she handled everything so, so well. She was so calm when I was nervous or anxious, she truly helped in so many ways. We loved that she speaks Spanish so that she could communicate with my family. Our photos were everything we wanted and more! They are so natural and beautiful. She does an amazing job, she is so skilled and experienced and we could not be more grateful! We cannot recommend her enough. Thank you so much Gaby!
Receiving our wedding pictures from Gaby during this holiday season was everything and more. I can’t say enough good things about her! If you want a dedicated, talented, organized,...
professional, and attention to detail kind of photographer, she’s your girl! From the moment you meet her, she’s fully invested. She will listen to your requests, and make sure is captured beautifully on your big day. For us, it was important to have someone that made us feel comfortable and at ease, and she has the power to do just that. It’s like having a big sister photograph your wedding! I loved her as my sidekick on our big day, and I can’t wait to work with her again on future life events! Thank you Gaby, our pictures are breathtaking! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!
If you’re searching for a photographer to photograph your wedding, you can end your search here. My husband and I could not have asked for a better photographer. She is bubbly, ene...
rgetic, and so incredibly easy to talk to! She made us feel so present on the day of our wedding! She was energetic and encouraging not only on the day of our wedding but all throughout our engagement! She is also bilingual (English and Spanish)! This was a great bonus, as she was able to communicate with those in my family who spoke Spanish. This helped our family portraits flow so seamlessly! If I had to plan my wedding all over again, the first thing I would do is book Gabby as my photographer. She captured our wedding day perfectly... When I was looking for a photographer, I wanted someone who could capture the day as it was. I wanted the photos to look timeless and organic. The photos we got back far exceeded my dreams! Her photos are truly timeless. They are bright and airy, and they exude the happiness that my husband and I felt on our wedding day! We are so excited to have found our lifelong photographer! We are so thankful to you Gabby!

al meet up which was our engagement shoot. During our session we felt totally comfortable and had so much fun! She sent us tips and checklists before hand to make sure we had everything in mind to be prepared.
Everything went seamless on our wedding day as well and she handles large, difficult to wrangle groups like a champ! Hahaha. Her ability to give direction so well was a huge plus, and I know even our videographer appreciated her for that!
Our photos all came out beautifully, as her bright and airy style, with great attention to detail, results in magic!
You will absolutely love having Gaby with you on your wedding journey, from start to finish!
We loved our experience with Gaby! Since we had a very small wedding, the vendors we chose was important to me. She was very bubbly and it felt like we had been friends for years. ...
When I was looking for a wedding photographer, I wanted someone that was able to capture light, airy, and classic photos which is exactly Gaby’s style. I’m so glad we were able to do an engagement shoot so we were able to get more comfortable with each other before the wedding. Gaby was truly so great to work with because she was very helpful, thoughtful, and knowledgeable. Gaby is easy to communicate with and receptive to what kind of photos I wanted. I loved the sneak peeks shortly after the wedding! I could not be more obsessed with our wedding photos! I would highly recommend Gaby!
I will start off by saying Gaby is THE best. Not only is she a fantastic photographer but she is an even more amazing person. We are so grateful that we had stumbled onto her Insta...
gram one day when looking for wedding vendors. From the moment we had our first video chat, we knew that we NEEDED her at our wedding. Her vibrant energy just makes you smile.
Our first time meeting her in person was for our engagement shoot and we were very nervous. Gaby immediately made us feel comfortable and had us laughing, making sure we were having fun with it.
In the months before our wedding, Gaby would send us checklist of things we would need for the wedding day and would send us cute little gifts to keep us wedding planning motivated. It was truly so thoughtful and sweet! She had also sent us very detailed questionnaires to fill out for the wedding day and it made us feel at ease knowing how organized everything was.
Our wedding day honestly could not have gone any better. Gaby was truly amazing with all of our friends and family. From the moment she had arrived, everything went so smoothly.
When we had received our pictures we were absolutely blown away. They were all beautiful and told the story of our wedding perfectly. We will definitely be contacting Gaby for future photoshoots! Book snapshotsbygabriela, you won't regret it!
We cannot say enough great things about Gaby! She is the sweetest, most talented photographer, and we are so happy that we had her there to capture our wedding day! Gaby was very c...
ommunicative through the whole process leading up to our wedding. She arrived early on the day, and she was just such a calming presence. She’s so easy to get along with, and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera! She has an amazing eye and perfectly captured the dreamy, magical, loving atmosphere of our wedding day. We are overjoyed with both the quantity and quality of the photos we received, and we will definitely be reaching out for future couple and family shoots. Thank you a million times, Gaby!
From day 1 Gabby was personable, caring and all-in on our big day! Seriously with how busy this wedding industry has been these days, it was really hard to find a photographer like...
Gabby! She truly cared about what was best for us first before anything ever came down to a contract. Gabby is also incredibly quick to respond whether it's to us and or our other vendors! When dealing with vendors sometimes they can be so busy, overwhelmed, distracted, etc, but Gabby obvious understands how important good communication is since she was routinely one of our quickest to respond vendors. Her personality is bubbly, honest and friendly. Which helped a ton for us since we are not necessarily the most comfortable couple in front of a camera. Funny, I haven't even mention her work yet! Her photos were perfect and came to us so quickly. I was so impressed how she was able to capture sooo much of that day and how she managed throughout the day. She worked well with all of vendors and even though we fell slightly behind she was able to quickly adapt and was constantly communicating with us to make sure we were getting all the shots we wanted! Her team was great and dedicated. One of her photographers jumped in the trunk of her own car while we drove to the venue just to ensure we made the wedding on time!! Dedicated to our day all the way through. I'll stop here cause I could go much longer, but realistically you want to know if Gabby is worth the position of photographer in your own wedding/event and IMO it's a resounding yes! We really felt like we got everything we wanted and more from Gabby and her team! Thank you so much!
I truly could not have asked for a better wedding photographer than Gaby. From our first time meeting over zoom I could tell she was passionate about what she does and the couples ...
she serves. The engagement session was a wonderful sneak peak into what it would be like working with her and I was excited to have her by my side on the most important day of my life. When she arrived on my wedding day a sense of peace came over me. She is incredibly organized and efficient while also being an absolute ray of sunshine, not only to the bride and groom but to literally everyone she came in contact with. I tend to get a bit of stage fright when being in front of the camera but she helped me to feel at ease and coached us to poses that felt natural and let our personalities shine. The photos are gorgeous and captured beautiful moments my husband and I will cherish for the rest of our lives.
Words cannot describe how wonderful Gabby is. She has been our photographer for several sessions including our wedding day and engagement shoot! I will never go to another photogr...
apher, after working with Gabby! She was amazing on our wedding day, bringing happiness, positivity and pure joy to our day! I love working with Gabby because she captures the love me and my husband have for each other in such a genuine way. She has such a creative mind and knows exactly how to capture the best picture. I love working with her because she makes my vision come to life. She was open to suggestions on certain pictures I would like on the wedding day. And she made them BETTER than I dreamed of! Gabby was very good at keeping to a timeline but being flexible if something else needed to happen! One of the biggest reasons why I love Gabby is because she is personable. Almost everyone has an insecurity. Gabby makes mine go away. I can be vulnerable but confident in front of her camera because I know I will look beautiful. She gives me confidence no photographer has ever given me and I can be myself in pictures. She is the best at capturing your personalities in every photo! When I look back on our pictures I see the genuine beautiful me and my kind, smoking hot husband. Me and my husband could not be more grateful to have met her. Gabby is not only our photographer but now our friend. She has given us amazing photographs to look back upon in many years. I can't wait to do future sessions with her, whatever they may be. She is a catch and a photographer to keep for a lifetime.

They are bright and airy with the perfect amount of warmth. We keep looking at them whenever we have the chance. Thank you so much Gaby!! ❤️

My favorite thing about Gaby is her personality , she made us feel like models and friends!
Our photos were done with a few week and they were amazing of course! We now have this amazing friendship with her, she is just so amazing! Best Photographer ever!

engagement shoot (our first photo shoot ever) and Gabriela just made us feel so comfortable, relaxed, and made it so much fun! Our engagement and wedding photos are ABSOLUTELY STUNNING! We are so happy we had Gabriela there so capture such a special time in our lives!
Working with Gaby was honestly so great. We have had a lot change with our wedding due to the pandemic and other circumstances and Gaby has been so accommodating. She is really per...
sonable and I felt comfortable with her right away. She has plenty of her own ideas for location, outfits, and poses if you need them (I sure did!) but is open to your ideas too. She knows many beautiful locations around Orlando and had great suggestions on where to get the best shots.
She’s one of the most genuinely kind and friendly people I’ve ever met. She even sent us a Starbucks gift card for Valentines days! Not to mention the quality and style of the photographs - which I am obsessed with. I’ve never had professional photos done and Gaby made it so easy and I absolutely love our photos. They are light and airy, but don’t feel overly photoshopped. They are just naturally beautiful photos!
The best part of working with Gaby is her positive attitude, flexibility, and her communication with her clients. She always responds in a timely manner and it felt like we already knew each other before we had our session. I felt so comfortable working with her even though it was my first time with a professional photographer! She was fun, but also helped me to feel calm and confident in our session. I can’t thank her enough and I would recommend her to anyone I know!
You cannot go wrong booking your wedding with Gaby. She is so patient and so kind. She really makes you feel comfortable during your shoot. My husband and I had never been photogra...
phed professionally before and we were a little nervous but Gaby removed all our fears and we HAD the best time during our shoot. When we received our gallery I couldn’t believe how amazing the photos turned out. Her style of photography is very natural and that was very important to me when picking a photographer because I personally did not want overly edited photos.
10000/10 recommend Gaby!
She is my photographer for life
