Absolute perfection and nothing less. I was fortunate enough to have Gaia capture my most special day and was so blown away by the gallery I received. Her assistant helped capture different angles which really made all the difference...there were some super special moments that didn't go missed. Gaia got inspiration from my inspiration pictures and totally worked with it, if not, 10x better. The editing on each and every single picture is beautiful and you can literally see how much effort and attention to detail Gaia puts in....it's incredible. My whole family were all so blown away when they went through the gallery (I'd like to note my family are hard to please!). I'm not sure how Gaia does it, but she manages to capture emotions, feelings and a story through the pictures she takes. Gaia is so easy to work with too! (Which I believe is a must as there are so many horror stories of people having nightmares wedding photographers). She is so speedy at replying and listened to everything that I wanted. I thought I'd cry on my wedding day but I didn't. Once I received our pictures, it was nothing but tears. (Happy tears as I couldn't believe someone could capture our day so well and perfectly) Gaia is a wizard when it comes to photography, I couldn't recommend her enough. If you're looking for a wedding photographer, choose Gaia as you'll get so much more than a 'wedding photographer'. You'll have someone who knows what they're doing, someone who is in love with their job and someone you can trust to do the job. Thank you Gaia for giving us our most special memories. (I can never say thank you enough) - Elesha Da Cos

I recently had the pleasure of booking Gaia for both my engagement shoot and wedding photography in France, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. After what felt like an eternity searching for the perfect photographer, I finally found her and I'm so grateful that I did. From the moment we met via facetime, Gaia showed professionalism and friendliness, instantly putting me at ease. As someone who tends to be reserved, I appreciated her gentle and non-pushy approach, which made me feel incredibly comfortable in front of the camera. It was evident that she understood how to direct us without being overbearing, resulting in photos that felt natural and authentic yet vogue worthy. She managed to capture all the details and emotions, leaving us with a stunning collection of final photos that perfectly encapsulated the essence of our wedding day. Quick shout out to her team, hosting them was an absolute pleasure, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. They went beyond and helped with much more than photography. If you're searching for a creative photographer who is able to deliver exceptional results, lo

It was hard work finding a photographer in Europe whilst I’m all the way here in the US. Luckily, a friend of my in-laws introduced me to Gaia, and I instantly knew she was the right choice for our wedding. Choosing her turned out to be one of the best decisions we made. Gaia and her team were a dream to work with. Her input in planning our photos prior was a lifesaver, we had such detailed discussions about every aspect of the wedding photos and how we want it to be and both my fiance and I couldn’t stop talking about how helpful that was. We had time to pause and plan our dream photos prior. On the wedding day, they had everything covered: lighting assistants, a drone guy, a specialist just for the group shots, and a coordinator who made sure everything ran smoothly between the photography team and our planners. It was a level of professionalism that’s hard to come by. They made everything feel so effortless, and we didn’t have to worry about a thing. Gaia and Warren had such a calm, grounded presence that we never felt stressed for a second. Controversial but one of the things I loved most about Gaia was that she wasn’t all over loud Instagram promotions or splashing her work in paid magazine ads. My family and I are extremely private and appreciate a more like low-key vibe, and wanted to feel exclusive. And her photos? The way she captures real moments and genuine emotions is soo goood. Honestly, my mother in law and I almost want to keep her as our little secret, but her work deserves all the attention it gets. -Em A
