Gina was absolutely amazing!!! Last Saturday she photographed my wedding in Big Bear. She was so professional and knew exactly how to get the shots we wanted. I love the fact that she is SO well organized! Gina kept in contact with me months before my wedding date, and made sure we were on the same page with what photos were a "must have." She is so patient with kids, and knew exactly what to do in order to create the perfect shot! Gina gave me great ideas for photo shots, and helped me every step of the way!! She listened to my ideas and helped me bring to life the photos I had in mind. My father died last year, next to my kids my mother is the only family I have left; Gina made sure to capture beautiful photos of my mother and my children. I will cherish these photos and pass them down for years to come. I am more than pleased with every aspect of hiring her for my wedding. Weddings are so stressful and she made it seem like a breeze! I couldn't have asked for a better experience with any photographer. Thank you Gina!!!! I can't wait to post the photos you took :-) Your the best!!! read more

I'm so bummed it has taken me this long to write such an amazing review! Gina drove out to the San Gabriel Valley and ventured out into the canyon to get some amazing shots of me. She also allowed my boyfriend (now fiance) to tag along with his camera to shoot video of the whole process. She gave great direction on posing, ideal locations and wardrobe. She isn't scared to get a little dirty or get her feet wet to get the perfect shot. I am thrilled with the photos and can't wait to collaborate with Gina again! ::) read more

Gina Marie Studios - Not so standard headshot for an anything but standard designer! - Photographers Near Me

From the moment I met Gina, she made me feel so comfortable. She is so easy, so flexible, and so accommodating. We did a photo shoot around baby farm animals - a very unpredictable situation - and she captured every moment so beautifully. I love the photos she took, and I love the memories we made. Gina is really sweet, and also very talented. I really can't wait to work with her again! I'm so glad I found a truly professional and skilled photographer who is also a joy to be around! read more

I love Gina Marie Photography. Gina was so flexible with our schedule. She really knows how to get a child's attention and to keep them smiling. I'm looking forward to having her take pictures of my two dogs. The affordable price will keep me coming back for more! Thanks Gina! read more

Of all the photographers I had interviewed Gina resonated in energy, spirit , simplicity, and a well laid out portfolio. I feel blessed to have found her and from our first call on the phone to our meeting and through out the wedding day and after she has showed amazing understanding, help , direction and coordinated everything fabulously! Her assistant Kimberly too was just as friendly, soft spoken very courteous, professional and put us all at ease & ready for some amazing shots!! They worked in unison so well we hardly knew they were around us all the time!! Her packages are explained & laid out very well, you chose the one that works best for your occassion & needs. I recommend Gina Marie 100% and then some:)) She has provided us wonderful & stunning memories to visit over and over again!! read more

This review is way overdue but better late than never. Gina came highly recommended by my wedding planner and let me tell you she did not disappoint! We was planning a wedding in LA from Hawaii so I had never meet Gina nor seen her work, we just communicated via email. I had complete faith and trust in my wedding planner so I went with Gina and I am SO glad I did. Her and her crew were absolutely amazing! Our pictures turned out better than we expected. Gina is a true professional and you can tell she puts all her time and effort in ensuring her customers are satisfied. I really cannot say enough great things about Gina and the finished products, she truly delivered! Gina THANK YOU so much for all that you did and have done. For keeping in constant communication with us and for being such a huge part of our special day! read more

My fiance and I were both pretty nervous about our engagement shoot, but Gina made us feel completely comfortable. We ended up having a lot of fun, with a minimum amount of awkwardness : ) She was totally open to our input and ideas, and didnt make us do a lot of stiff posed pics that arent our style. We ended up using her pics for our save-the-dates and even the designer that was editing them for us mentioned how awesome our pics were. We would definitely use her again. read more

I used Gina for our family portraits. Her assistant took the pictures and Gina retouched them. Gina enlarged and framed them too. The portraits were given to my mom for her 80th birthday and my mom was so pleased and so was I. Thank you Gina! read more

I was involved in a family photo session that Gina was hired for. Some of my family members are not that easy to work with, I won't name names haha Not an easy feat, especially with my disorderly family, but Gina is a pro! She has a great attitude and got everyone staged with such ease. She will definitely be getting more work from our family and friends :) read more

My boudoir session was fun and totally worth every bit put into it! I love love love my photos!! I felt beautiful and gina knew exactly how to work my curvy body. I would recommend any type of session with her!! read more

I would recommend Gina to anyone looking for a gr8 photographer. read more

GIna is seriously a magician behind the camera. She took our family photos last weekend and managed to get beautiful shots of us (me, my husband, our almost 3 year old daughter, 6 month old son, and two dogs) where we are all looking at the camera! She is great with kids and dogs and we could not be more thrilled with our photos. She was also very flexible with us and our schedule, even accommodating a last minute change that made her wake up before the sun was up to meet us so my husband could make a flight at 10am. Gina had our photos to us in less than 6 hours and every one of them is beautiful. We will definitely have her take our photos every year from now on! read more

We hired Gina Marie to take family photos during a mini family reunion in Palm Desert in late December of 2012. We had a total of 4 families and 15 people to capture. She did a great job of staging both formal and informal/fun shots that beautifully captured everyone. Ages ranged from 10 mos. to grandparents, and she knew how to work with all of us. What could have been a stressful event was actually relaxed and fun thanks to Gina's personality. We received a CD with the photos last week and were thrilled. Not only did she manage to capture everyone looking in the same direction at the same time, but her photos definitely have a wonderful quality about them that are not possible with a point and click camera. She is a true professional in every sense and we look forward to working with her again. I highly recommend Gina because of the value and quality of her photos and her responsive and friendly personality. read more

Gina is absolutely amazing! From the first time I spoke with her to meeting her in person. She is such a beautiful person inside and out! She was great about making sure I stayed on track as the wedding approached. She was amazing the day of, going above and beyond helping outside of her photographer duties. And the pictures? Oh my goodness! Amazing, beautiful, gorgeous! They are some of the best professional pictures I have ever seen. My son was 11 months during our wedding and she captured some of the most amazing photos of him. HIGHLY recommended. She will not disappoint you! read more

I just wanted to offer an update. A few days ago we received an anniversary card in the mail from Gina. We still love the photos and are very happy that we hired her! read more

I had pictures taken with Gina around xmas time and she was able to schedule me in with about a weeks notice. We went to some gardens for the pictures and there were lots of nice settings there. The posing was very natural. My fiance and I were very happy with how the pictures came out and I would recommend her to anyone. read more

Gina is great to work with, she did our engagement photo shoot and our wedding, both were perfect! She was extremely helpful with some of the planning as well, had lots of great suggestions and made our special day that much better and smoother. She even had 1 of our engagement photos blown up on a canvas for us to use as a guest sign. Turned out adorable! We've been married 1 year now and she sent me a message saying congratulations on our anniversary. A few days later we received a gift from her in the mail, a very cute wooden box with a picture of my husband and I, along with the dates and sayings. We look forward to working with her for all of our upcoming events. You should do the same!!! read more
