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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
Kelly + Mark | Married - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A St. Joseph Chapel Catholic Wedding November was a month full of wonderful weddings! As we head into the holiday season, I can’t think of a better way to wrap up the month than with Kelly and Mark’s beautiful St. Joseph Chapel wedding. My team and I always love weddings at Spring Hill because the […]
Allie + Tanner | Married - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
An Autumnal Family Wedding It was freezing cold the day of Tanner and Allie’s engagement session. Tanner said it was better than sweating, but we all agreed we needed to pray the wedding day wouldn’t be quite that cold. A few days before the wedding, the weather forecast predicted an 80 percent chance of rain. […]
Ashley + Brandon | Married - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A St. Francis at the Point Wedding I have been looking forward to Ashley and Brandon’s wedding day ever since I met them at their engagement session. They’re the type of couple that you feel like you’ve somehow known forever, despite spending only a short time together. When I met their families at their rehearsal […]
Audrey + Spencer | Married - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Sacred Heart Chapel Wedding I LOVE fall weddings! The weather in October is usually especially perfect and it was just so on Audrey and Spencer’s wedding day. We had the perfect amount of bay breeze and it wasn’t too hot, or too cold. It’s days like this that I wonder how anyone could live […]
Kate + Michael | Engaged - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Dauphin Island Engagement Session Summer disappeared in the blink of an eye and fall season has kicked into high gear! Having a break from weddings in the summer months lets me prepare for the busy fall season, where I’m doing sessions three or four days a week. I can’t share so much of what […]
Lindsey + Bryant | Engaged - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Fairhope Pier Engagement Session The end of summer and beginning of fall is always my favorite time of year. The excitement for cooler weather and fall weddings has me itching to get outdoors for portrait sessions! The blog has been a bit quieter over the summer because I have been photographing so many things […]
Grace | Class of 2024 - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Mobile Botanical Gardens Senior Portrait Session It has been such a hot summer, but the gardens at the Mobile Botanical Gardens (MBG) are just as beautiful as always! I always love visiting MBG and was especially excited to be there for a senior portrait session for one of my favorite families! Grace was such […]
Anna + Ben | Engaged - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Dauphin Island Engagement Session It has been an unbearably hot summer. Thankfully, the day that I met up with Anna and Ben on Dauphin Island for their engagement portraits the weather wasn’t too sweltering. I always love starting sessions on the island at Cadillac Park. This park is full of gorgeous oak and pine […]
Madeleine + George | Engaged - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Sacred Heart Chapel Engagement I have known Madeleine’s mom, Stephanie, for a while. She and I have worked together on some commercial shoots over the past few years. When I found out that one of her daughters was engaged, I was so excited for their sweet family! A couple months before this engagement session, […]
Nicole + Tony | Engaged - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
The Orchard at Hayes Farm Engagement The last two weeks of July have been jam-packed with engagement sessions! Usually, this time of the year is pretty quiet, but I had three couples who needed to take their engagement portraits during the summer months and it worked out perfectly that all three got their session in […]
Ashland | Azalea Trail Maid Portraits - Elizabeth Gelineau Photography
A Bragg-Mitchell Mansion Portrait Session It was a hot summer afternoon the day of Ashland’s portrait session, but you’d never know it from these photos! Last year, I was lucky enough to photograph Ashland’s sister, who was an Azalea Trail Maid on the 2022-2023 court. I think it’s so amazing that two sisters are serving […]
