I highly recommend Chanel Gamble! My family had the pleasure of having Christmas pictures done at Gogos a couple of years ago by her. Chanel was professional, personable, and patient (we had an energetic 3 year old at that time). Our pictures turned out amazing, and we will be looking forward to working with her again when our 1 year old is a bit older. 5 stars! More...

Chanel Gamble exceeded our expectations as our wedding and maternity photographer. Her warmth and kindness made posing in front of the camera surprisingly comfortable for both of us. Not only did she beautifully capture our special moments, but she also skillfully documented our wedding guests, ensuring that everyone's joy was immortalized in stunning photographs. We couldn't be happier with her work, and we highly recommend Chanel for any memorable occasion. 5 stars! More...

It was such a pleasure working with Chanel! She was invisible when needed yet visible when required. Her quiet, kind appearance was very appealing. Highly recommended.

I just had my second baby and wasn’t going to do maternity or newborn pics but my gf had them done by Chanel and they looked so good and were such a reasonable price so I reached out there her. First of all she is so sweet, and since she has kids of her own she was so good and so patient trying to photograph our toddler who didn’t always want to cooperate. The photos are so beautiful and so relaxed, they feel very ‘us’. I definitely recommend her and will be booking with her again in the future. Thanks Chanel ❤️ More...

Me telling my fiance that I don't know how to start my review for our photo shoot with Chanel. He replies that I should start off with something funny. .. But I am not funny 😅 He is the funny one and Chanel absolutely captured how much he makes me laugh. It was such an amazing shoot, she gave us some guidance but also encouraged our personalities to shine. Chanel made us feel so comfortable, I can't wait to do another shoot with her again! Thank you so so much Chanel! More...

Chanel did my maternity photos and I have nothing but great things to say about her! She is so talented!! She’s so friendly while being professional. You can tell when she walks into a space that she knows exactly what she’s doing with lightning and angles and makes you feel beautiful and comfortable! I am so happy with our photos I will continue to use her for photography in the future! Highly recommend her! More...

My fiancé and I lucked out and got a last minute spot for a Christmas shoot with Chanel at Gogo’s tree farm. Everything was set up so beautifully and we were impressed with how many photos we got for a 20 minute mini session. Neither of us had done a photo session before and felt a little awkward at first, but she did a great job making us look and feel relaxed (and she even got a bunch of stellar shots of our usually very nervous pup). In fact, we ended up loving the photos so much we had 50 Christmas cards made and decided to use them to announce our engagement! More...

Chanel is so warm and comfortable to be with. She sees the beauty in everyone... I will cherish the photos she took FOREVER! My daughter was in a SERIOUS mood when we got to the beach to shoot, but Chanel was so welcoming to her and she eventually opened up and started having fun 🥰 we will definitely shoot with her again!

What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
I believe its a lot to do with knowing your subject. For me, that entails getting to know my clients and how they interact together, their relationship and dynamic. I pick up on their energy and direct them into connecting and loving on each other to create the intimate, playful, and connected photos of them as they truly are.
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
Tell me your story?
What are some things about yourself, your partner, kids etc you'd like to share?
When is your date?
What is your vision for your photos?
What do you love most about your job?
I absolutely love being a photographer. I love having the ability to capture life's most important memories and I love that photos grow more valuable with time passed.
