I'm Elizabeth Gelineau, a photographer, dreamer, and accidental entrepreneur. Based in my hometown of Mobile, Ala., I photograph portraits, weddings and events on both sides of Mobile Bay. Grab a cup of coffee (or other beverage of your choice) and enjoy browsing around. I'm so glad you stopped by!
"Elizabeth is one of the nicest people you will ever meet. Her style of coaching is very easy to follow making her pictures look so natural. I love her use of natural light. Her style is classic and timeless, which is exactly what I wanted for my wedding day. Twenty years in the future, I am confident I will still love my pictures as much as I do today."
"Elizabeth is the most genuine person you will ever meet! The love she has for her job is so apparent not only in her beautiful photos but also in the warm and welcoming atmosphere she creates during her shoots. My husband and I do not love taking photos, however Elizabeth made us feel so comfortable and calm in front of the camera. Our wedding and engagement photos exceeded my expectations. Not only is her work wonderful but her calming positive attitude is what every bride needs on her wedding day. I could not recommend her enough! She is truly the best!"

"Elizabeth is the best choice in my opinion! She took time to get to know Justin and myself to where we felt like friends, which made posing for pictures less awkward. She is extremely kind and not shy to tell you how to pose/stand, which was very helpful for me! Elizabeth's photography is very natural. Overall, I could not have imagined working with a better photographer, because in my experience she is the best!!

I don’t know how to put in words just how happy I am to finally get to share photos from Jill and Cooper’s wedding celebration! They were married in a private ceremony back in April. Like so many couples who planned spring weddings for this year, the pandemic altered their plans. Since there was a 10 person limit at the church, I was unable to take photographs at their April ceremony. My heart went out to Jill and all the other spring brides who were facing the same tough decisions. I knew photography was so important to Jill and I would have loved to have been able to photograph her wedding ceremony for her.
Jill decided to save wearing her wedding dress for their wedding celebration day. Jill told me she would have been devastated if I hadn’t been available on their new date. I have to say I would have felt the same way! Jill and I hit it off from the first time we met up for her consultation. She’s one of those people that you immediately feel like you’ve known forever. Then I met Cooper at their engagement session (now almost a year ago!) and immediately knew I was going to have so much fun photographing them on their wedding day. Thankfully, I was available on Jill and Cooper’s wedding celebration date and what a wonderful celebration it was!
Jill and Cooper were married at Sacred Heart Chapel in April. Since the church wasn’t available on their wedding celebration date, they decided to have an outdoor ceremony at the bluffs overlooking Fairhope Pier. We had absolutely perfect weather the day of this wedding. I’m still pinching myself over how glorious the light was during both afternoon portraits and at sunset. I’m telling you, it was beyond dreamy!!!
After their bayside ceremony, guests headed to The Venue in downtown Fairhope for the reception. I love ending a beautiful wedding day with a fun reception! This one was full of great music and lots of dancing. Jill and Cooper finally got to celebrate their marriage with family and friends. It was just a joy to witness how happy everyone was for these two!
I remember talking to Jill on the phone the day they decided to postpone their wedding day celebration. It was a sad day and, at that time, we didn’t even know if this day would happen. I’m so thankful that it did and that I was able to document all the moments for Jill and Cooper. Enjoy this explosion of favorites from their beautiful wedding celebration day!
Jill wore a ring that belonged to her great-great grandmother and tied a locket that belonged to her grandmother to her bouquet. I loved photographing these heirlooms along with her bridal details.
Jill recently lost her grandmother, but I’m sure she was smiling down on her from heaven on this day!
This is one of my favorite shots from the day!
