Photos that Feel like You


Lifestyle photography is all about capturing real emotions and candid moments in real places. I want to capture the way you experience the world with the ones you love. I encourage you to incorporate meaningful details into your sessions.


If you need ideas, I'm here to help transform your shoot into a unique photography experience.

“Gernelle really sets the bar for how a photoshoot is supposed to go! I enjoyed every minute of working with her and the pictures came out amazing. Book a session with this talented and awesome young lady, I promise you won't regret it.”
