Hi, I’m Gabrielle Rowley.

Hi! I’m GabbI!

I am a queer portrait photographer (digital and film) based in Vermont. My love for photography started with a passion for travel and capturing authentic moments with friends and family. I recently decided to take my passion to the next level and push my art even further.

I love all things moody, vintage, gothic, and nostalgic!

My values include:

• Keeping things 100% human (no AI)

• Celebrating the beauty in diverse identities

• Playing with gender expression

• Creating a safe and comfortable environment

• Body positivity

• Less is more editing that enhances instead of overcorrecting

• Photos that feel emotional, authentic, and organic instead of “picture perfect”

On a personal level, I love:

• Literature (historical fiction especially)

• The mythical and occult

• Dance and theater

• Romance

• Writing

• Museums and historical sites

• Nature

• France and Ireland

• Thrifting

• Hozier, Noah Kahan, Fleetwood Mac, and Chappell Roan

• Drinking tea

• Garbage reality TV

• Anyone who self identifies as a weirdo

My full time job is in human services. I am a people person at heart, and I love to hear everyone’s unique story. This is also why I love photography. It gives me a chance to connect with an individual, learn about their story, and do my best to help them tell it through art. Getting photographed can be an intimate experience and I do not take that lightly. I appreciate anyone who trusts me in this shared experience.

Getting photographed by me will feel like:

…trying different things and finding what works to get the perfect shot.

…a lot of laughter and goofy moments.

…me making crazy faces when I’m concentrating.

…happy dances at the photo preview on the camera screen.

…supporting you with clear instructions on posing and movement to get the best end result.

…me constantly hyping you up (I might be cringey but it’s 100% earnest).

…(hopefully) a whole lot of fun!
