Gino Creglia Photography

I have known Gino for years now and even worked with him for a summer as his photography assistant. He has always been so upbeat and stress-free, even when having to deal with dozens of people at one time. So when I was going to get married, I knew there was no other person to call. My fiance does not like taking pictures at all but with Gino, he had a ton of fun and our engagement pictures turned out great.

I still recieve compliments for them! For our wedding, Gino made everyone feel great and took the time to bring chairs for my elderly relatives to make sure they were comfortable. He goes above and beyond in every situation and always makes sure to get the best shot. I recommend Gino, not only for his gorgeous photography skills, but also for his outstanding personality and enthusiasm!

Gino took fantastic pictures for us! He shot many of our food items, various ways we accommodate our banquets & large parties, and took outside patio view photos. all in four hours! He told me in advance what to do and we achieved greatness in this short amount of time thanks to him! A pleasure to work with!

We loved having Gino as our photographer for our wedding! We had met with several other photographers, but chose Gino because of his high energy and beautiful photojournalistic style. He is very responsive to emails and provides valuable insights and suggestions. We got our wedding proofs back about a week ago, and I was almost in tears with how beautiful they all turned out. Gino and his second shooter were amazing at the wedding; I hardly saw them except when we did our bridal party/individual pictures. I would HIGHLY recommend Gino to anyone looking for a qualified, professional, and affordable photographer

After securing our location/date/officiant, finding the right photographer was the single most important wedding line item on my list. I also knew I would spend more money on photography than any other item. That's not to say that Gino is expensive. Rather, we had a DIY wedding, and found bargains on wardrobe, decorations, our chef/catering, and almost anything you can think of. However, my father instilled in me an appreciation for photography, I have been a pretty serious shutterbug all my life, and I know good photography when I see it.

I interviewed five excellent photographers in the Sacramento area and any of them could have handled my wedding. But Gino's photography is personal, consistent and energetic. I undervalued the engagement photo shoot and now realize how important that session is. Gino gets to know you understand what you're like as the subject of his work. The photos turned out great, and we went in to our wedding day confident about Gino's work.

When Gino arrived for our wedding I was so happy to see him! He is very present and personal, and moves through the formal photos quickly, getting all the iterations of groupings we wanted. During the wedding and reception, he was great. I only noticed him a few times when he specifically took photos of my husband and I with our friends (which was important to us - lots of photos of our guests!) and during golden hour he stole us aside for about 3 minutes to get some photos of us when the sun is just perfect.

We chose to do all of our formal portraits before the wedding, before guests arrived. This meant being ready 3 hours before the ceremony for a 2 hour photo shoot and an hour buffer between photography and the ceremony. It was a lot to ask of our wedding party, but well worth it. We didn't waste a single second after the ceremony taking photos and got right on with partying with our guests - priceless. This, and hiring Gino, were two of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Thank you GINO!

After interviewing several photographers, we chose Gino for our outdoor foothill wedding. As expressed in his portfolio, his eye for detail and knowledge of photography/technology is second to none. Our wedding was near sunset, and we knew it would be difficult to get the right shots without being too dark, but he produced gorgeous images highlighting not only our wedding party but the scenery as well. Gino is easygoing and worked well with our family as well - he went above and beyond in every way. I would recommend Gino to any bride!

Gino was our wedding photographer and we absolutely loved him! He has such an eye for photography and they come out incredibly. We met with him months before the wedding and knew he would be great: his big personality is easy to work with and he's used to having to gather large groups for family photos. Leading up to the wedding Gino and I met to talk about what photos I wanted (aside from just the standard wedding ones) and he was so easy to talk to and reassuring (telling me we would easily get everything done when I got nervous).

The day of the wedding, Gino was awesome! He gets so excited when the shots come out well and even showed us a few as he was taking them. He has an eye for lighting and getting the just perfect shot. Plus, he knew our venue and knew exactly would work best for the best photos. After the wedding, he was so kind, sending emails to check in and letting me know the album would be ready soon (it took less than 2 weeks).

Even cuter, he sent a few of his favorites as a sneak peek! All of the thousands he took and sent to us came out beautifully and the only hard part will be deciding which we want to use for albums. He is friendly, professional, and loves his job which makes him simply a joy to work with. He are so happy he was there to capture our wedding on film.

After interviewing several photographers we chose Gino because of his clear talent to take amazing shots and also his excitement about capturing our big day. On the wedding day I had a long list of photos I wanted- all before the actual ceremony and we had only a short time to get them all done. Gino was amazing at getting a lot of great photography done in a very short period of time.

My family and friends all raved about how professional and excited Gino was all night and it gave my husband and I a burst of energy when we felt like we had taken as many photos as a person can possibly take in a day to see how enthusiastic Gino was about the shots. We just got our photos back this week and were completely floored by how amazing they are! I am so happy we had him for our wedding and can't thank him enough!

Gino is such an amazing wedding photographer! From our initial consultation to our engagement photo shoot and wedding day, he spent the time to get to know our personalities, which truly reflect in our photos. He is responsive, attentive and very talented. He kept the pace for our wedding day, without being overbearing or pushy and taking the stress off of us.

The other vendors and site manager all reported a great interaction with him. Most importantly, the photos were absolutely wonderful. He seemed to always capture our "good side" without us ever saying a thing. He is very reasonably priced for quality of his work. Such a joy to work with. I would definitely hire him again in a heartbeat!

We absolutely loved working with Gino as our wedding photographer! At the initial meeting my husband and my parents and I all went to meet with him. It was clear that this photos were spectacular. He also had a lot of experience at our wedding venue and we figured that would come in handy. Through the planning process, Gino was easy going and calming.

He called a few weeks before the wedding to go over the shots he wanted to take and was open to a not short list of photos my mother wanted to be sure to have done as well. Come wedding day, Gino was there to make sure everything ran smoothly in terms of photography and even guided our videographers. He ran through the list of requested shots quickly and would even show us sneak peeks of his favorites.

He was calm and friendly and able to coral large groups to get the shots quickly and efficiently. Then during the reception, he was around to catch all the great moments you can't plan for. While we were on our honeymoon, we received emails from Gino indicating the photos would be available soon. We had access to the album of over 1,000 photos in under two weeks!

He even sent me a few sneak peeks while we were away, which was such a delight. The pictures came out so well and we were overall so happy with our choice in a wedding photographer. We would highly and happily recommend Gino!

Gino was awesome. He was super friendly and laid back but very good at taking charge when he needs to in order to get the shots you want. He did our wedding at the Jefferson Street Mansion in Benicia in September 2012 and I am absolutly thrilled with the images we got. He worked wonderful with the videographer's we hired so no worries there if you have one.

He was recomended to me by a friend when I was having a hard time finding a photographer for our date and I am so very glad she did because his eye for the right angles, the right lighting and the right look are spot on! So very happy with the work and I will absolutly recommend him to anyone looking for a professional photographer. He was worth every penny :

I absolutely LOVE Gino, not to mention how awesome his work is! We booked him for our Italian wedding and also had him do our engagement photo shoot. Both pictures from the engagement photos and our wedding photos were as good as it gets. He takes pride in his work, makes you feel comfortable and works with you in any way possible. He makes sure all the pictures and poses are right for the setting. If you are looking for a wonderful photographer, not just for weddings but for anything, this is the guy for you! Take a look at his website and see the beauty for yourself!

I'm shocked that I'm the first to yelp Gino Creglia! He was such a fabulous photographer that I thought for sure someone else would've been singing his praises before I got to it. I am a photography FANATIC so finding a wedding photographer was one of the biggest aspects of my big day. We met with about a dozen photographers and couldn't find a right fit.

So we ventured a bit outside of Sacramento proper, out to Folsom to meet with Gino. We knew right away he was the one! Gino is very personable with a great sense of humor, a vibrant energy, and a beautiful photography portfolio. He is a true artist. even better, an artist without the "artiste" attitude. When we discussed our aesthetic and what we wanted, he got excited thinking up photography ideas with us; you can tell he really loves what he does.

On our wedding day we met Gino downtown early in the morning. He took the "bride getting ready" photos then we all ventured out into the city to take fun urban pictures. Afterwards we drove out to Placer County where Gino captured all the great moments of our wedding ceremony and reception. We got the standard posed shots, the fun shots, all the weird shots we wanted and great shots that we hadn't even thought of (all at a reasonable price for the all-digital package we wanted). I couldn't have asked for a better wedding photography experience. 6 stars for Gino!
