Caroline + Buddy | Engaged - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Spring Hill College Engagement Session Golden Hour on the Avenue of the Oaks is such a DREAM! You can tell summer weather is on the way, but on the evening that I met up with Caroline and Buddy for their engagement session, it wasn’t quite so hot and humid. The weather was glorious and […]
Leah + Alex | Married - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Bragg-Mitchell Mansion Wedding My team and I were at The Bragg-Mitchell Mansion for the third time this spring and we loved every minute of it! Fun fact, this was also our third wedding at this venue this spring with the fabulous team at Bella Victoria Events. Leah and Alex had such a timeless Southern […]
Emmie + Matthew | Married - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A St. Mary’s Catholic Church Wedding St. Mary’s Catholic Church and the Bragg-Mitchell Mansion have to be one of my favorite wedding day combos. Both are SO Mobile and timeless wedding day locations. I photographed Matthew’s sister’s wedding last year and I’ve known a lot of his family my entire life. The church I grew […]
Rebecca + David | Married - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Cathedral-Basilica of the Immaculate Conception Wedding We kicked off the spring season with three weddings three Saturdays in a row and this was an awesome wedding to close out that marathon! We headed to our car just as the clock struck midnight. As tired as we were, my team and I agreed it had […]
Melanie + Clayton | Married - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A St. Ignatius Catholic Church Wedding What are the ingredients for a perfect wedding day? First, you need a joyful couple who know that the marriage is the most important part of the day. Add to that, two wonderful and loving families, who are excited for the couple to become husband and wife. Lastly, you […]
Rebecca + Peyton | Married - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A St. Mary’s Catholic Church Wedding Spring wedding season has officially begun! After intentionally scheduling a break from weddings for the first two months of the year, I was excited to be reunited with my wedding day team for Rebecca and Peyton’s wedding. This was a classic Mobile wedding, which included some of my favorite […]
Mary Frances + Turner | Engaged - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Grand Hotel Engagement Session Mary Frances and Turner had the most perfect spring weather for their engagement session! Days like this one feel so rare in the Mobile Bay area. Usually the humidity is so much higher than it was on this day. It’s so wonderful to take photos in that time of year […]
Catherine + Jacob | Engaged - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Fairhope Engagement Session I was so excited for two engagement sessions in a row held on private property! There is something about driving up to an unseen location that makes the creative juices start pumping in overdrive. The second I pulled up to Catherine’s parents’ home, I knew there were some very specific shots […]
Mellanee + Carl | Engaged - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Golden Hour Engagement Session on a Farm I photographed Mellanee’s son’s wedding in 2023. I remember her daughter-in-law, Natalie, telling me that Mellanee was so full of faith and trust in God. She lost her first husband when her children were young. Carl entered her life and their love story began. Fast forward to […]
Regina + Ian | Engaged - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
My Second Photographer is Getting Married Public speaking was my least favorite class in college. I would get so nervous before each speech! As a photographer, I do a LOT of talking in my job. However, it is not the same thing as giving a presentation. Talking to a small group of people, or one-on-one, […]
Allyson + John | Married - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A St. Ignatius Catholic Church Wedding My cousin, Allyson, was 10 years old when I began my photography journey. She was in the cousin crew that served as my earliest subjects, allowing me to practice the techniques I was learning while taking classes at Spring Hill College. I still remember a shoot where I took […]
Sarah + Alexander | Engaged - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Grand Hotel Engagement Each year, once Thanksgiving arrives, I know the time is going to fly by, but it moves extra quick when you have December weddings and multiple shoots over the weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas. I suddenly find myself wondering, where has December gone because it feels like yesterday that I met […]
Mary Kathryn + Shields | Married - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A St. James Episcopal Wedding I am still in disbelief that Mary Kathryn is all grown up and married! I met her when she was in middle school. Her mom, Kathy, was one of my first clients when my photography business was still new. We met thanks to our mutual friend, Kelly. After that first […]
Leah + Alex | Engaged - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Downtown Fairhope Engagement Session It was a picture perfect afternoon the day I met up with Leah and Alex in Fairhope. Despite this being a November engagement session, it felt like a spring day! I don’t know what is going on with this year’s fall weather, but I’m thankful to have had clear skies […]
Rebecca + Peyton | Engaged - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Spring Hill Engagement Session It hadn’t rained in weeks, but the one weekend I had two engagement sessions booked in one day, it looked like it was going to be a wet weekend. We had considered a few different options for Rebecca and Peyton’s engagement session, but due to the weather we shifted our […]
Melanie + Clayton | Engaged - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Spring Hill College Engagement Session The fall is always an incredibly busy season! This year, I intentionally took fewer fall weddings so that I could accommodate more commercial and editorial shoots. I have been photographing so many fun things, but these types of shoots have to be kept under wraps for a few months, […]
Amelia + Jacob | Married - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A St. Joseph Chapel Wedding Amelia and Jacob’s wedding day was the definition of a perfect fall wedding! The day was a dream from beginning to end thanks to a super sweet couple, their amazing family and friends, plus an awesome vendor team. What more could a photographer want?! It’s been a while since I’ve […]
Amelia + Jacob | Engaged - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Fort Conde Inn Engagement Most of the time I photograph engagement sessions for my couples months before their wedding day. But every once in a while it’s difficult to make our schedules align until much closer to the wedding date. Amelia and Jacob are getting married this weekend! We met up for this engagement […]
Mary Beth + Steven | Married - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A St. Joseph Chapel Wedding Fall isn’t quite here yet in Mobile, Alabama. You just never know what the weather will bring in September. It could be mild or quite tropical. The day of Mary Beth and Steven’s wedding, the weather was perfectly in between the deep summer heat and the crisp weather of fall. […]
Emmie + Matthew | Engaged - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Dauphin Island Engagement Session It’s the season of sibling engagements and weddings! I LOVE working with families I know and I especially love when that means I’m getting to work with them on more than one wedding day. This summer I photographed Matthew’s sister’s wedding. A few months prior to that wedding, Lindsey told […]
Rebecca + David | Engaged - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Downtown Mobile Engagement I can’t recall exactly the first time I met Rebecca, but she is one of those people that makes you feel like you’ve known her forever five minutes after you meet her. Last fall, I photographed Rebecca’s entire family for an extended family session and it was so much fun. At […]
Lauren + Aaron | Engaged - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Fairhope Pier Proposal It was a hard secret to keep. Lauren’s boyfriend, Aaron, was planning to propose and he reached out to ask if I would document the big moment. Lauren has been my wedding day assistant for close to three years. We spend a lot of time together during wedding season. I was […]
Aimee + Brenton | Married - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A St. Mary’s Catholic Church Wedding I always love weddings at St. Mary Catholic Church in midtown Mobile. Aimee grew up in this parish, received her other Sacraments there, and taught in the parish school. Needless to say, it was the perfect choice for her Nuptial Mass. Brenton and Aimee had been living on opposite […]
Allyson + John | Engaged - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Grand Hotel Point Clear Engagement Growing up, we always hung out with our cousins. Living in the same town as many of them has always been such a huge blessing. Allyson was part of the cousin crew who were my first portrait subjects when I took photography in college. During her first years of […]
Lindsey + Bryant | Wedding - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A St. Dominic Catholic Church Wedding When I was in Kindergarten, Lindsey’s aunt was my “eighth grade buddy” – what we called the kids who sat with us on Fridays during school Mass. Then, when I was in First Grade, her grandmother was my teacher for half a year and she would later teach me […]
Madeleine + George | Married - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Sacred Heart Chapel Catholic Wedding Photographing weddings for families I know is such a JOY! I have known Madeleine’s mom, Stephanie, for quite a while. We first met when Stephanie was working with Danny Lipford. She and I had so much fun working together on photoshoots for Today’s Homeowner. I’ll never forget us powering […]
Nicole + Tony | Married - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A St. Philip Neri Catholic Church Wedding I photograph a lot of Catholic weddings in the Mobile Bay area, but I often find myself at the same churches over and over. I love the classic choices for a Catholic wedding in Mobile. The Cathedral Basilica of the Immaculate Conception, St. Joseph Chapel, St. Mary’s and […]
Mary Beth + Steve | Engaged - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Spring Hill College Engagement We’ve had the most gorgeous spring weather here in Mobile. I never tire of portrait sessions on the Avenue of the Oaks this time of year. In fact, I’ve had several sessions at this location in the last two weeks and they’ve all been so much fun! I hope to […]
Kate + Michael | Married - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Sacred Heart Chapel Wedding Kate and Michael’s wedding day was a southern spring dream! It was our first warm wedding of the season, but a gentle bay breeze kept us from feeling too hot. I photograph a lot of Catholic weddings in the Mobile Bay area and Sacred Heart Chapel is definitely at the […]
Anna + Ben | Married - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Cathedral-Basilica of the Immaculate Conception Wedding March is one of my favorite months of the year! There is something about the season in between winter and summer that I look forward to every year. Maybe it’s because March is my birthday month, or maybe it’s because I love all the flowers that bloom this […]
Aimee + Brenton | Engaged - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Bellingrath Gardens Engagement Session Bellingrath Gardens is truly a landmark in our area. It’s a must visit for many tourists and equally loved by locals. I’ve visited the gardens many, many times over the years and it never ceases to impress me. I was excited when Aimee said she wanted to do their engagement […]
Mary Kathryn + Shields | Engaged - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Grand Hotel Engagement Session Mary Kathryn’s mom, Kathy, has been one of my clients for many years. A mutual friend referred her to me for photography back in 2014 and I’ve worked with her every year since! It was at the first Cotillion Ball I photographed for Kathy’s business that I met Mary Kathryn. […]
Sarah + Peter | Married - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A History Museum Wedding I have worked with Sarah’s sweet family multiple times. I first met her mom on a Mobile Bay Magazine shoot years ago and then photographed her twin sister’s wedding in January 2022. Being with them for another wedding day was such a JOY! Growing up, I always wondered what it must […]
Lily + Will | Married - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Sacred Heart Chapel Wedding My team and I arrived at Lily’s family home in Fairhope excited for such perfect wedding day weather. Little did we know that everything about this day would be pure PERFECTION! From all the lovely details, to the sweetest bridal party, beautiful ceremony, gorgeous sunset, and fantastic reception…every minute was […]
Hyland + Bob | Married - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Little Point Clear Wedding It’s hard to believe I’m already three weddings into the 2024 season! I usually don’t book many weddings between January and February, but this year these months are very busy with weddings! I love weddings at Little Point Clear! It was the perfect venue for Hyland and Bob’s beautiful day. […]
Brooke + Brendan | Married - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Christ the King Catholic Church Wedding Both of my January weddings had me spending time with families I’ve known for years. Best of all, I got to see past brides of mine at both of these weddings. This year marks 10 years since I first dipped my toe into the world of photographing couples. […]
Mary Elizabeth + Bill | Married - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A St. Mary’s Catholic Church Wedding Holy Family Church is where I was Baptized, where I received my first Holy Communion and where I received the Sacrament of Confirmation. It’s where my parents were married. And where we went to Christmas Eve Mass with my grandparents for my entire childhood. I attended Holy Family School […]
Best of Engagements 2023 - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
My Favorite Engagement Portraits of the Year It’s hard to believe that we’re already two weeks into a new year! This fall marked nine years since I photographed my first engagement session. Most who are familiar with my business now don’t realize that I started out my photography journey avoiding all things wedding-related (even engagement […]
Mary Elizabeth + Bill | Engaged - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Spring Hill College Engagement Session I feel like I blinked and the second half of December disappeared. Between the holidays, getting sick right at Christmas and kicking off a new year, I find myself wondering how we are already into the second week of 2024. Usually, I have my end of year recap posts […]
Anna + Anderson | Married - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A St. Mary’s Catholic Church Wedding One of the most impactful teachers I ever had was Mr. Pat Arensberg. I was blessed to have him for two theology classes while I was a student at McGill-Toolen Catholic. I was also fortunate to take two pilgrimage trips led by Mr. Arensberg. Those experiences strongly impacted my […]
