    Geoff did amazing!

    Geoff was amazing! He was very professional during the engagement session as well as the wedding. He worked very efficiently to keep up with the wedding timeline. Our photos came out great!

    Portrait Gallery's reply:

    Thanks for the review Holly! You guys were so cute together! Doing a wedding with 8 kids in the wedding party is sometimes a challenge, but it all came off nicely! Thanks to your planning for sure!

    My photographer Renee made the entire wedding day a pleasure. From pictures of me getting dressed to the sparkler send-off, Renee was at my said the entire day. She took care to not be annoying and not pressure us into staged/posed pictures. I was initially hesitant because my fiance did not want a photographer at all (that's how much he loves having his picture taken), but I can honestly say that Renee was able to make him smile in just about every single picture. I can't say enough good things about her.

    Highly recommend

    Geoff was very nice to work with. Our pictures looked great and he made sure we got all the shots on our list. We hired him because he was highly recommended by family members who had him photograph their wedding. You should hire him, you won't be disappointed.

    Portrait Gallery's reply:

    Thanks for the praise! Indoor winter weddings are a piece of cake for me, especially with all the great holiday decorations that you had! I am really excited that you enjoyed the Portrait Gallery experience!!! Send me your friends and I will make them happy too!

    Flexible and creative

    Geoff took what some would consider an impossible task and made it such an amazing day. From photos in the rain to having to take all indoor photos with tough lighting, he nailed it and every picture came out amazing! Highly recommend if you want the best quality photos from your big day!

    Portrait Gallery's reply:

    Rainy days are a true test, but bright optics and a sturdy tripod often save the day! My first black wedding dress as well! Dark dress, dark backgrounds on a dark day the true test! But I loved the results and had a blast!

    Professional and beautiful outcome

    Geoff was very professional, down to earth and had a sense of humor. He did an amazing job with our engagement shoot and our wedding. We never felt rushed or pressured, Geoff was the perfect photographer to capture our wedding! The pictures are beautiful.

    Portrait Gallery's reply:

    I loved your smallish wedding, so nice and intimate! The light was rather dull that day, but that helped soften the images nicely! Plus no sun glare to worry about! The Taco Truck was the best idea! YUM! So happy we connected!

    Organized, timely, efficient

    My wife and I couldn’t be more impressed and thrilled that we had Geoff as our photographer for our wedding. Geoff’s experience was incredibly evident throughout the entire process. The engagement photos and wedding photos came out perfectly. He sent us draft pictures of the wedding within 24 hours and the completed edits for all were sent to us within a week we were amazed! We had a sit down meeting with him to go over every photo that we were wanting during the day and he captured them all! Geoff is flexible , considerate, and above all, a master at his craft. My wife and I recommend, and will continually recommend the portrait gallery to anyone trying to have their pictures match how magical the day actually is.

    Portrait Gallery's reply:

    It was a pleasure working with you and Jake! I had a blast, and you both looked so in LOVE, it made my job easy. I love that one candid image of you during the ceremony. Your expressions were so so perfect. Plus how about that rainbow, certainly a blessing!

    Excellent Photos

    JL and Kate took unbelievable photos of us in all the great moments of our day. They made us and everyone there very comfortable. I've gotten many comments on how great they were! Worth every penny. Thank you!

    Great Photos and Easy to Work With

    Geoff was very accomodating and easy to work with during a busy wedding day. He always took his time to get the right shots, and was very flexible with us running around talking to people and making sure all the photos we had on our list were taken. We couldn't be happier with how all the pictures turned out and were amazed at how quickly they came back. I would recommend Geoff to anyone looking for a photographer!

    Portrait Gallery's reply:

    Mild mannered easy going Geoff is my MO! It was a delight working with both of you! The Mansfield Barn is the perfect spot and everything came off as planned. I just ordered your canvas prints so those should be ready soon!

    Incredible photographers!! Great eye for capturing different backgrounds!

    Geoff was wonderful!! He has a true artists eye for capturing different backgrounds so it wasn’t just the same picture over and over again! JR accompanied Geoff and was very personable and got some great shots! Both went above and beyond to make sure we got all the pictures we wanted and they were top quality!

    Lake Morey has so many amazing vistas it makes my job easy! It was a pleasure working with you folks! I really love the night photos of the 2 of you! So soft yet edgy!

    Amazing Wedding Photographers

    Our entire experience with Portrait Gallery was great. From the intro and booking process, to the engagement shoot, and throughout the wedding day. JL and Kate really understood what we wanted out of our pictures and we couldn't be happier with how the pictures came out. Not to mention they are the nicest people to work with and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. We would highly recommend PG for anyone looking for a wedding photographer in the Vermont area!

    A photographer that goes above and beyond!

    We discovered Geoff through a family friend. At first we were skeptical of his price, we were really trying to keep our budget low. But, his online portfolios won us over! So we went with his package that included a photo album for us and our parents. The photos were OUTSTANDING! And due to weather we had to change things around last min. Geoff went above and beyond, came out a day early to do our first look pictures to avoid the storm! He was on time. Photos were taken in a reasonable amount of time - not too quick but not too long either. He gave great verbal direction for poses. He made sure to get photos of all our family members. We asked and Geoff made sure it happened. He captured our whole wedding - we now have a "slow motion" film if you put all the photos together.
    The photos were online only TWO days after our wedding. And he was giving us sneak peaks only two hours after the shoot! OUTSTANDING
    seriously- your money = the quality you get back. I 100% would pick Geoff again if we had to do it all over again... but its a wedding so I hope its one and done! :)

    Portrait Gallery's reply:

    You were my first 2 day wedding shoot! I am super happy the weather worked out the day before, and the photos and site were awesome, and of course the two of you looked great! Then Day 2, well it rained! Good old mother nature always ready with a curve ball! Thank you for selecting me! It was nice seeing your families, again and again...

    Amazing 10/10!

    Geoff was so kind, on time, efficient, detail oriented, flexible, and so much more. I highly recommend him for anyone who needs quality photos in high quantity amount as well. He truly makes your money worth it when you get so many back. He captured so many moments for us that we may not have been able to see, so we can cherish them forever.

    Portrait Gallery's reply:

    I am so happy for you! What a great yet rainy day we had! Your family was so nice to me! I always find the smaller intimate weddings such a pleasure! Relaxed and fun!

    Absolutely Amazing

    Geoff who runs The Portrait Gallery is simply amazing. His work is stunning, and he made the process so seamless. The engagement shoot made us feel super comfortable, and he made our wedding photo experience exactly what we wanted. It is truly a personalized experience, and his photos are so stunning. Thank you Portrait Gallery for capturing our special day!

    Incredible!

    Geoff was the best! He captured our day perfectly. He took the time before our wedding to learn the moments that were important to us and got the best shots! He was always quick to respond and super supportive!

    Portrait Gallery's reply:

    So happy to work with you and your puppy too! It was a windy day which made things difficult, but fortunately it died down at the end of the day and we were able to get some great sunset photos amid the killer red foliage!

    Picture Perfect Photographer

    My Wife and I had a fantastic experience with Geoff and Collin from the Portrait Gallery team. They captured every aspect of our wedding, both planned and candied. We were blown away by the quality of the photos. They were professional, prompt, and responsive to all of our questions and requests. We did our engagement and wedding photos through them and i could not be happier. Geoff had our pictures edited and back to us very quickly so we could relive the day a week after the wedding. I would highly recommend Portrait Gallery to anyone!

    Portrait Gallery's reply:

    Pretty windy and cold! Had to fight the elements for sure. The split coverage with Colin and I worked nicely, so you got extra coverage on both ends! Cheers!

    Easy to work with!

    We loved worked with Jessica from the Portrait Gallery! She was friendly, experienced, easy to work with, and fun! Her special touches to get the correct lighting and poses was part of her magic! She was able to get family members who don't smile to smile! She was professional, direct when she needed to be, and helpful. She really listened to what we envisioned for our day and made it come true! It is so hard to chose a favorite photo because they all came out so beautiful! Working with her was a highlight of our day and wedding! We would highly recommend Jessica and the Portrait Gallery for wedding photography!

    Portrait Gallery's reply:

    I am glad you liked Jessica. Her work is so nice! I have "borrowed" a few pose ideas from her over the years! Thanks for the great review!

    Amazing wedding Photographer!!

    We just got married 9/17/22 in Benson VT. My now wife found the Portrait Gallery on wedding wire and Geoffery was amazing from start to finish. We are over the moon with every single photo. He captured every part of the day. It goes so fast we are so happy to have all our photos to cherish forever. He made our special day so memorable filled with lots of laughs, family and friends. We highly recommend The Portrait Gallery; you will NOT regret it. Always the Groom

    Extremely professional

    This duo went above and beyond to capture my favorite moments of the wedding. I was nervous the photographers might get in the way/distract people from the actual events of the wedding (like photographers I’ve seen at other weddings), but they were great. Highly recommend!

    Portrait Gallery's reply:

    Fly on the wall approach is always best. Ready and watching, but not interfering for the most part. Except during the formals when I do take over. Thanks again!

    Amazing Pictures

    Geoff was such an amazing photographer. From start to finish, I couldn’t have asked for a better person to do my wedding! The pictures came out perfect. We also got way more pictures than expected which was awesome and I am so happy. Not only did we get a lot of pictures of my husband and I but there were a good amount of the guests and everyone dancing which is so much fun to look at! Geoff knew where and when to take the perfect pictures. Along with the perfect poses for us. I am so happy with how they all turned out. Geoff is also extremely easy to work with. I would recommend him to everyone!!

    Portrait Gallery's reply:

    I love working the dancefloor with folks! It is so much fun to do some getting jiggy with guests! Thanks for the kind words!
