Our Wedding DayWe eloped in Austin, Texas out at

Chapel Dulcinea. It was a beautiful crisp, fall morning and it was perfect. on the way to the chapel, we stopped to eat tacos from a truck on top of

a hill, in the middle of no where. All dressed to impress, I was trying hard not to get dirty but when you see a

taco truck, one must stop.

I think the funniest part of the day was when a snake scared me while shooting photos in the middle of a field. Our wedding was simple and sweet. Just the way we wanted it :)

I purchased my pink, sparkley dress at a resale shop for $100. La Tee Da made my beautiful

bouquet and Designs by D’Anne made our delicious cake.

ReviewsI have no idea where to start besides saying Gema Duran is an AMAZING photographer! I had the hardest time trying to find a GOOD photographer that wasn’t too expensive and then pops up her name during my search. I am so glad we chose her. She was very sweet from the beginning, has a great personality, and works around YOUR schedule. My bridal pictures were phenomenal and the pictures from the wedding were out of this world! If you are a

bride who doesn’t really know what your style is or know what poses to do...no worries..Gema is perfection! I read in a previous post that she doesn’t charge enough which is absolutely true because she is just that good. During the wedding and reception I would have said she didn’t

take any pictures because we hardly saw her but she took over 2,000 perfect pictures! She is truly a “ninja!” Another

great thing about her is your images will be ready very soon after your shoot or wedding. I hear a lot of stories

of many brides waiting weeks and even months to get their wedding pictures. I waited a max of a week and a

half for my wedding pictures and I think that’s great for the amount of pictures that were taken. I am so elated that I will have these images to look at for the rest of my life! I wish she shot more than just weddings because I would love to do future work with her! She is such a blessing and you will not be disappointed in her work.

ReviewsMy husband and I had the honor of working with Gema for our engagement session as well as our wedding. She

is by far the best photographer I have ever met. Not only is she an excellent photographer, but she is a wonderful

person and became a friend. From the very first time I met Gema at our consultation for her services, I knew

she would be the one for our wedding. She is so energetic and fun. We all were cracking up for our engagement session and the fun came out in our pictures. They are

AMAZING! My husband is a police officer and hates having his picture taken, but Gema made it so enjoyable. The wedding day came and having Gema there was like

having a good friend there taking your pictures rather than a “photographer”. My mom, bless her, feels that

she knows best when it comes to pictures. Gema was so understanding and accommodated my mom but then got the pictures that we had discussed that I wanted. Once

we got the pictures back, we could not believe all of the amazing shots Gema took. She captured the essence of

our wedding; a happy, exciting, fun day. Thank you simply does not seem enough for everything that she has done for my husband and myself. Gema is one in a million and

we are absolutely honored to say she is our wedding photographer and friend!
