Gayle Coates Photography

I had recently been inspired to capture a very special time in my life. A time when my mother, who lives across the country, was going to be here to spend some time with me and my daughters. I realized that I truly treasure the time I spend with my mom and my girls, and want to hang on to that forever by getting portraits taken. When looking for a photographer, I wanted a place that was comfortable for the kids, yet classy. I wanted to work with someone that has a passion for photographing women of all ages and would be able to relate to our span of ages being 6 to 65! I also did not want the typical little girl photos where they are dressed up in tutu’s and bows. I wanted an organic shoot, natural and magazine style. Let me tell you… Gayle delivered!!! Her boutique style studio is beautiful and very comfortable. Her personality literally made us all fee like we were supermodels for the day, and now my oldest is interested in photography. We were greeted with a cup of tea and a smile while getting ready, and from there it was magic. I am not used to being in front of the camera, and was a little nervous. Gayle gave me exactly the direction I needed which resulted in me finally being happy with the way I appeared in photos. Plus I learned a lot of tips for when posing in the future.
If you’ve thought about having portraits of yourself, but were hesitant due to nerves or how you may appear… I would say Gayle is a great option because she will do a wonderful job helping you to look and feel gorgeous!
