Jeronique was incredible! Arrived early and was on top of everything from the start. She did a fantastic job taking photos. We have a large venue, and I saw her everywhere, making sure she got candid and posed photos of everyone and everything. We received the photos that weekend and are in love with them. Will absolutely be rehiring her for any future events.

Whether you’re setting up a special photo shoot for your family or want to capture genuine moments at your birthday party, wedding, or corporate event, you can find the right photographer for you on GigSalad.

We also highly recommend reading plenty of reviews from past clients. See if others had a great experience and if the photographer was easy to work with. When talking with your photographer, discuss important details like what is included in the photo package, the venue or location setup, if lights are needed or if natural lighting will be present, and delivery timelines and expectations.
