Specialties

Weddings

Brian and Jennifer have been photographing weddings together since 2003! To continue delivering the highest quality work, they limit their wedding workload to 30 per year. Their schedule fills up quickly and most clients book 1 year in advance so be sure to reserve your date asap.

Portraits

Jennifer and Brian are parents — and they know how to work with kids! Family portrait shoots have to be fun and they make sure your little ones will want to come back again and again! While getting the «safe shots» they always get the artistic and candid ones at the same time– capturing love, laughter, and your unique personalities. Whether you want to use their ½ acre garden studio by the back bay or you have picked your own location, they will capture the real you and help you stylize your wardrobe. Gilmore Studios also shoots newborn and maternity sessions.

History

Established in 2003.

Jennifer Gilmore Photography started in 2003. After getting her degree in psychology in 2002, Jennifer fell in love with something new– photography! She quickly started working for a local wedding photographer. That same year, she went from fluffing dresses to shooting weddings on her own.

During that time she and Brian got married and started their own photography business! Since then, they have shot hundreds of weddings together around Southern CA and occasionally get to travel out of state to shoot weddings for their clients.

They have been the official photographers for the National Charity League Newport Beach chapter for over ten years now. Jennifer loves getting to know the new debutantes each year. Her wedding experience keeps her on the cutting edge of wedding fashion and she always seems to know what the girls are looking for.
