Testimonials

Wendy, the pictures are awesome! We love what you do. Looking forward to having family portraits taken in the fall! You are very good at what you do and it shows with every photo of both Katee's wedding and Aubree's senior pictures! You make it look so easy! Thank you very much.
— Michelle Gallegos

Wendy is awesome! She is young and spunky, easy to work with and not awkward like it can be. She does whatever to take a great picture, lays on the ground, whatever! Not only does she take amazing pictures but she spends a lot of time editing them so you look perfect and the pictures have cool effects. When we got our engagements done the photographer posted great photos on the blog but then once we got the full CD we realized she really only made the ones she put up for people to see look really good and the rest were just plain old unedited, untouched photos. So thank you for making them ALL look good!! It is DEFINITELY worth the money to pay for how much effort she puts into the photographs! If you want awesome photos for a reasonable cost, this is it!
— Janet & Charles

After the difficult experience of having our five month old photographed, I put the thought of any other pictures out of my head and decided to leave it there until our family was grown! But with all the changes a little person makes from five months to 18, I decided it was probably time to get her pictures done again. I was a little worried thinking of how the photo shoot would go, but with Wendy it was great! Having her come to our home made our little daughter much more comfortable and the patience that Wendy showed was amazing! She never got frustrated even when our girl did not want to hold still or smile! Wendy worked hard to get our 18-month old to smile and look at her long enough to snap the pictures. I wasn't sure how many smiley or display-able pictures we would get, but my husband and I could not be more pleased with the results! Every picture is an example of the artwork of photography and we plan to use Wendy again and again!
Wendy - I know it is kind of long but its true, you are an amazing photographer with astounding patience and a multitude of talents! Thank you again for making the experience so pleasant and easy for us.
Talk to you soon!

My husband and I got married last August and had Wendy as our photographer. I first saw her pictures when my cousin showed me her engagments and bridals she had done by Wendy and I thought they were so pretty and very detailed. I thought that my cousin had paid a ton for that photographer, but I looked on her website just to see for my self. I was surprised when she was very affordable compared to everyone else I had been looking at and I knew she took very beautiful pictures, so I called and booked her. She was very flexible with coming and meeting with us at my house to go over prices and scheduling. She was very nice, professional and she just had fun taking our pictures. She new all the good places to get the best pictures, which I liked because I really didnt know what I wanted. For my bridals she had heard of this park that would be really pretty to take pictures at, so before we did my bridals she went to the park and found the best places for the pictures. I was very grateful and shocked that she did that for us on her own time. I love every picture she took of us at our wedding. She is a great Photographer and takes time to detail every picture and make it beautiful!!! Thanks wendy!! :)

Wendy was prompt, professional, fun, affordable, and a very skilled photographer. She produced pictures that were unique and beautiful. Needless to say, our wedding pictures were far beyond my high expectations. I am still getting comments about how wonderful they are! Thanks Wendy!

Wendy’s work has taken the image of Larusso to a level of professionalism that demands attention in a music industry that is saturated by too many bands . The quality of Wendy’s photos separates us from the pack of locals and rivals even the look of top national acts. These days selling a band hinges on image just as much as the music played. Wendy has great insight on how to capture the look of a band with inventive and original ideas. We could not be happier with the way the studio, location, posters and live photos have turned out and we will continue going to Wendy in the future. If you are ready for people to start taking your band seriously go to Photos By Wendy G!

Rebecca and Jared came from Maryland to pick up their adopted son Isaac. She found an add of mine and had me take pictures of Isaac while they were in Utah.
Thanks Wendy! We are enjoying the pictures very much! I have had to disappoint a lot of people telling them that you don't live around here and can't take pictures of their kids unless they go to Utah : )
— The Roberts

My wife Kelly and I had Wendy do our Wedding photography a little over 2 years ago now, and I've got to say she was nothing short of AMAZING. She offers, great prices, flexibility, and a style that leaves those who see her photos breathless. We used her when our son was born, as well as for family pictures this past Christmas, and it couldn't have been easier because she is a joy to work with. Wendy, is the best photographer I know, and I look forward to using her services as my family continues to grow. THANKS WENDY!!!

We finally had the opportunity to get Wendy to our house and have our family pictures taken. I was so excited because I have been trying to do this for months now. I got the pictures back and I am super happy with how they turned out considering the way my kids always act during the time of taking them. But really?? How can you get 3 kids under 3 to cooperate and actually have them ALL smiling at the same time?!? You can't. And that is why I love Wendy so much. She is actually able to somehow work her "magic" and get them all looking at the camera and have them all smiling for that matter. So thank you Wendy for all of your patience and all of your hard work to get my kids pictures done and our family picture done. If you are ever in need of a great photographer and want reasonable prices, check out her website HERE. She is awesome and she'll even come right to your home to take them (ours were taken in our living room).
— Jackie Gailey & Family

They are beautiful, we love them. Thank you so much for so wonderfully capturing such a precious time for us.
Thank you,
— Victor and Angie Zamora

Wendy was such a delight to work with! She did an amazing job on our photos and was so happy and cheerful the whole time!! We had a little back up with a wedding before us but Wendy was able to do other shots and work around it. We are so happy with the pictures and would recommend her to anyone!
— Kimberly & Aaron Forsythe

Wendy takes great pride in her work and it shows through the detail and planning she does in each shot. Wendy has crafted her talent over many years, she is inspiring and always in the know. She is professional and accommodating, sincere and trustworthy. We are SO happy with our photos. We have not yet seen another photographer magnify the magic Wendy is capable of. All of our guests commented on our photos and just LOVED them. They wanted to know who she was right away. She is on time and reliable and her copyrighted cd's to her clients are genius, helping us utilize our photos for our use. She literally has thought of everything. In her shoots as you notice on her website you can notice she almost always thinks of new idea or way to shoot each couple. She captures the couple and their love in a vibrant timeless way. She's just amazing. Let her prove it to you.
— Rachel & Jordan Clark

Wendy...thank you for beautiful pictures!! I just knew (despite the minor setbacks) that they would be great! Everyone is so pleased and I will let everyone know what great work you do! Thanks!!!
— Carolina Merino

Wendy did an amazing job with our pictures. We got so many compliments on our engagements, bridals, and wedding photos. She was super affordable and very easy to work with. She has a lot of good ideas, but also takes into consideration what you as a customer want. She was always on time and very professional. We loved Wendy and if I could go back and do it again I would definitely choose her.

Wendy I am so thankful for you and these beautiful pictures of our angel! We truly feel blessed to have him in our lives and hope people feel his amazing spirit when they cross his path! You captured everything I could have hoped for and more!

I was hired by David from Gateway Mapping, Inc. to photograph many different flowers and floral arrangements for the company to use on a web page they are building.
Great work, by the way. I really appreciate the quality and timeliness of the delivery.
Thanks,
— David Day - Gateway Mapping, Inc.

Wendy,
I absolutely love the pictures. You did such a great job! Each and every one of them turned out great. I can't thank you enough for the wonderful job you did. Briley usually never lasts as long as she did when we take pictures. You kept her smiling and happy the whole hour. And Teagan is such a happy baby all the time. He did so well smiling for you. I will keep in touch, because I have found my photographer. I have bounced from place to place to find someone that knew what they were doing. And I have finally found her! Thank you again for the great memories you gave our family.
Sincerely,
— Megan Mellor

Our original photographer canceled a few days before our wedding. This is when Wendy's website fell in my lap. It was a Blessing. The pictures are beautiful, we have full copy rights, and we received the dvd in just a week. I give my 100% recommendation. Thanks,
— Brock & Kitty Berry

Wendy was our wedding photographer and we had her take pictures of Abby. Believe it or not, these were done in our living room and they turned out amazing! If you are in Utah I highly recommend her.

Wendy was great! We loved our engagement as well as our wedding photos! She was flexible and willing to work with what we wanted. Her quality of photo is amazing and we were able to choose from many we liked. We also liked that she released the copy right for all of the photos to us and we are able to print any and all photos anywhere any time we would like to!

I absolutely loved Wendy and all of her work on my photo's & invitations! The quality and unique style of her photography is simply amazing, and her creativity is outstanding! She even helped me with designing my wedding announcement/invitations as well as printed them off! She was a very personable individual to work with and I very much enjoyed our sessions together. If you are looking for a wonderful photographer it would be in your best interest to at least check her out!
Wendy - I can't thank you enough for the amazing job that you did on all of our engagements, bridals, & wedding pictures!! Your work is outstanding and I am so thankful to have stumbled across your website in my search for a photographer. I am so happy with all of our pictures! You are such a unique and kind person and your friendly nature makes you just awesome to work with. You have definitely left a lasting impression with me not only as a photographer but as a person too. I couldn't have asked for anyone better! I am definitely going to keep track of your continuing work and look you up for my future photography needs! I have already told so many people about you and I always look forward to the next opportunity to keep spreading the word. -THANK YOU!!!

I love my pictures. They are perfect. Wendy works so great with you and will make sure she takes millions of pictures so you are happy with at least one of them. I will use her again in the future for my photography needs.
— Ashley & Joshua Storer

I have to say that Wendy is absolutely amazing and fun to work with!! I chose her not only because of her affordable pricing, but because of her unique photography! She took me to locations that I would've never thought to go, was so willing to listen to my ideas and was very flexible with my scheduling needs. Wendy took our engagement pictures, as well as my bridals, our wedding ceremony and wedding reception. I was amazed at how she paid close attention to every last detail, every time we had a photo session with her. I was especially happy with the awesome pictures of the wedding cake and all of my wedding decorations that she captured while at the reception. I have pictures of everything - from beginning to end. I can't wait to add them all to my wedding album and have the keepsake to share for generations!! She far exceeded my expectations and has given me memories that will last a lifetime. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer to capture their special memories. I will forever be a client of yours, Wendy!!

Look no further
-- if you found Wendy, your search for a photographer is over!
We found Wendy's work online and knew that we had to have her as our photographer for the whole "wedding lineup." She took two sets of engagement pictures for us -- at the Bonneville Salt Flats and at a location in Salt Lake with graffiti art covering a building.
She took our bridals and groomals in a studio. She photographed our wedding day and our reception. Her service during these events was professional; she works quickly but thoroughly, she is creative beyond words, and she photographs in any style you want! Some photographers have a set style and all their clients' pictures look identical, just with different people in them. You can see that all of Wendy's pictures are different from each other because every individual she shoots is different than the next. At our reception we had a huge display of photos Wendy had taken of us. We had people coming up to us the whole reception asking who our photographer was and how they could get her to take pictures for them. You will have the most original work from Wendy -- all your friends will be jealous!
Thanks for the amazing pictures Wendy!

Becky had both a son and daughter who were married in December (Jared & Chelsea as well as Jessica & James). I was delighted to be able to shoot both weddings, which were only one week apart!
Wendy: The discs were great! You took some great pictures. Thanks for enduring the cold and wind. It was a pleasure to work with you.
Thanks,
— Becky Larsen & Family

Wendy did a beautiful job with our wedding photos! She captured how happy we were perfectly. I will always be able to remember what a special, beautiful and cold! day it was just by looking at our pictures. She also worked us into her schedule in about a month, it was a quick engagement! We are from a different state, and working with Wendy was a breeze, almost as if we were able to meet with her in person. She took extremely beautiful pictures before and after our wedding ceremony and waited in the cold for us to come out of the temple!!! You couldn't ask for better service! I would, and do, recommend Wendy to anyone who wants beautiful, affordable pictures!!! Thanks Wendy! Sincerely,
— Denielle Johnson

When our photographer said she wasn't going to make it to our wedding because of a storm, we were in a panic. Our photographer called around to see if anyone in our area could do her a last-minute professional favor and cover. The wedding morning came and there was Wendy, ready to go. She took beautiful pictures and LOTS of them - which I love. She did individual, couple, and family shots. And did it all in the freezing cold on Dec. 22. She was amazing. Just 1 week after we got married, Wendy already had the photos ready on two CD's for us to keep. They were touched up, some were cropped or creatively framed, and there was a variety of color, black and white, and sepia. And the pictures were great quality because she uses a very high-end camera. Wendy's style is very creative and fun. We loved her work and hope you do too!

Wendy was super outgoing, super nice, and her work is really fresh. If
your looking for something traditional I'm sure she can do it, but we
loved her natural more new age style. She was SUPER fast in getting our
pictures back to us, and we had so much fun working with her and
becoming friend's. She would be my first choice over and over!
— Sarah & Adam Moeck

Wendy!
Thanks for doing our wedding day pictures. I wish I would have found you before I had my bridals done so you could have done them as well. Your pictures are awesome! We absolutely love them. Everyone is so impressed at your placement of people in photos, its great! You got some really good pictures and I'll be recommending you to as many people as I can. You've done some really different funky things with your photoshop on the pictures and that totally captures who we are. We couldn't be more pleased, and I thought you should know how happy we are with your work! Thanks Wendy!!!
— Lindsey Leishman

To say that we love our family photos would be an understatement. They are absolutely perfect. Wendy is exactly what we have been looking for in a photographer. She is imaginative, patient and simply gifted at her craft. Because of this, we thoroughly enjoyed our time with her and never felt rushed or pressed for time. We also have an active 4 year old who doesn't enjoy standing still and posing for pictures. Wendy was able to connect with him and help him to enjoy the experience too. Wendy has an artistic eye and the results of that show in our family photos. They are creative and original. Still, they capture our family perfectly. What more could we possibly ask for?!
— The McCubbins Family

I probably looked into about twenty different photographers before one of my friends referred me to Wendy Gailey. We sat down together and looked at her pictures. A great photographer was the main thing I desperately wanted for my wedding, and when I viewed the pictures I was very impressed with Wendy's artistic eye. The images she was able to capture and the ways in which she was able to enhance them manifested the talent I was looking for.
The pictures of our wedding are fantastic! I think I've pulled out the discs and shown our pictures to people on at least ten different occasions, and we've only had them for a little over a month! We are so pleased! Family and friends say our wedding "looks like a fairy tale." But what is even more impressive is that Wendy was able to create this "fairy tale" look in the middle of a rain storm. Our family pictures were mostly prey to wind, and Wendy handled it extremely professionally. She was able to command her position as the wedding photographer through the wind and family stubbornness. Everyone but my husband and I were able to make it into a car before the rain started. Then Wendy was considerate enough to ask if we wanted to continue and there wasn't a seconds hesitation. The water made us more excited (honestly), and it certainly shows through our photos; but no one would suspect the weather conditions. We do have some hilarious and some romantic pictures taken towards the end where Wendy was able to use the rain to her, and our, advantage.
She was absolutely the best investment we made during all the wedding expenditures. Even afterwards we sometimes guess the necessity of a few things, but we have always had complete confidence in the decision to hire Wendy as our photographer. My husband, who was initially skeptical on making the decision, has expressed to me over and over again how happy he is that he trusted me when I went with Wendy! Later in life, when everyone forgets all the important things we try to remember about our weddings, my husband and I will still have Wendy's wonderful pictures to help us look back on and remember. We sincerely say thank you, Wendy.
— Chad and Allison Richards

I love my wedding pictures! It was really important to me to get a good photographer for my wedding and Wendy went above and beyond my expectations. She covered both my wedding and my reception and was there to capture every moment.
I love candid photography so it really impressed me how she was quick to observe important relationships between my friends and family. This sensitivity resulted in great shots of my loved ones that I will always cherish. She got amazing shots of my youngest sister who is autistic and has a fear of getting her picture taken. Both my mom and I are grateful for the beautiful pictures she got of our little Lauren. Another impressive factor is her artistic eye and her editing skills. I have amazing photos that really catch the eye and take your breath away. She did a beautiful job capturing one of the most important days of my life.
Thanks again Wendy, you are amazing!
— Blair Bagley

The pictures Wendy took of my daughter, Nicole, were simply beautiful. The fact that she came to my home along with Wendy's gentle treatment of my daughter was key to capturing the breathtaking pictures she took. It was such a different experience than the ones I've had while taking my daughter to a studio. I didn't miss the long wait, the hurried photographers, and the extensive manipulation of my daughter. Wendy made my daughter very comfortable and she was able to capture some excellent pictures of my cutie's smile. My daughter's personality came through and I am really thankful I came across Wendy's ad. Wendy releases ownership of the pictures so I am able to make as many copies as I want. What a great value! Wendy, I really am more than happy with all the pictures. Thank you sooo much!!
