Welcome to my page and thank you for visiting! I am Gina. I am a wife, mom, animal lover, southerner at heart and of course my passion is photography! Capturing beautiful life’s moments since 2013! I love weddings! I love seeing the excitement in every moment of the bride getting ready. The beautiful dress she has been dreaming of since she was just a little girl and waiting to wear for her prince. The groom’s face seeing his bride for the first time and all her beauty is a magical moment. (Especially when there are a few tears of joy shed) I love the smell of all the pretty flowers and the sparkle in the diamond ring. The rings that were picked out so carefully to show their love. It is my pleasure to capture all of these little moments that will last a lifetime. I will travel anywhere for your big day too! I have been featured in Weddings 411 magazine and was voted Customer’s Choice on Wedding Wire for 2018.
If you're looking for someone to capture your most precious moments, look no further than Southern Shutter Photography. Me and my team pride ourselves on being professional, highly skilled, and fun to work with.

FAQ
How many hours of coverage will we need?
Every wedding is unique in styling + timing, therefore the amount of coverage that you need may vary from someone else's needs and that is why I offer three collections with different hourly coverage! Having said that, my preferred amount of coverage and my most frequently booked collection includes 8 hours. Eight hours gives me the perfect amount of time to thoroughly tell the story of your wedding day without feeling rushed, left with too much downtime, or missing important details/moments. But if you think you need more or less time, let's chat!
On a 8 hour wedding day you will average around 1000 images from each photographer if you have chosen two. I do highly recommend two photographers for any guest list over 135
Where are you based and do you travel?
I love to travel! If you want me to photograph your story, it will require a travel fee, depending on where it takes place. But no worries, I always try to find the cheapest way to come. Most weddings I am in Maryland and Delaware, I love new adventures and would be happy to join you in any city, state, or country to document your special day.
When will we get our photos?
All weddings + engagement sessions are delivered through an online gallery for easy viewing, sharing with friends + family, and downloading. Engagement sessions take about 2 weeks to be processed and weddings can take up to 8 - 12 weeks.
How many pictures will we receive?
For a 8 hours coverage wedding, you will receive between 600-800 fully edited images. I always choose quality rather than quantity and I will choose the best and more significant photos to tell your story.
What kind of equipment do you us?
My gear includes professional-grade Nikon D-750, D850, Nikon z11 bodies and a variety of lenses. all images are backed up to a second memory card with every click!
How do we book you for our wedding?
Once you have secured a date + venue we can move forward with booking! We require 35% non refundable deposit and a signed contract is required to reserve date. I book weddings a year to a year and a half in advance so don't hesitate to check your date
