My goal is to always capture your most authentic selves and moments that you'll never want to forget. I am dedicated to my couples and spend their entire wedding process making sure they are stress-free, happier than ever, and living in the moment.

This is not just a hobby or a job to me, it is my passion. I walk into each session and wedding wanting to capture the most incredible images that are focused around you. My extensive experience allows me to be a wedding professional and problem solver for my clients so they can let go and enjoy.

    Elaine Gates was a pleasure to work with on our wedding day. Her communication style was clear, concise and professional, putting us at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of her work was warm, inviting and professional - she truly captured the joy and beauty of our special day. Elaine had worked with our venue, the Peter Allen House, before and knew all the best spots to get phenomenal photos. She also coordinated seamlessly with our other vendors like Mount Laurel Catering and South Mountain Entertainment. My husband tends to close his eyes in photos, but Elaine put him at ease and made sure to take extra shots to ensure we had plenty of photos with his eyes open. We are thrilled with the final results and would highly recommend Elaine Gates Photography to any couple planning their wedding.

    There aren’t enough praises for the work that Elaine does. Elaine photographed both our engagement and our wedding photos. From the very first encounter she was professional, kind, and dedicated. She kept us laughing while capturing the most beautiful moments. She helped make sure our wedding day ran smooth, and all the moments we want captured were there. I truly could not have picked a better photographer and I look forward to working with Elaine for years to come!
