I'm Gretchen—and I've created a space where both the camera shy and the confident feel at home.
Getting professional photos shouldn’t always require a big event.
All though I would be more than excited to celebrate you on your big day or help you pick the cake flavor for your big retirement party (chocolate, is amazing), my 15 years of experience behind the camera has shown me that life is so much more than the "token moments" we measure our lives in.
I started Gretchen Loretta to pursue my passion of being an artist and to capture your big life moments, and all the little ones in between. My work helps bring your whole story to life, so that you, your family, and future generations can feel connected to you.
Your loved ones will be able to see the real you on both your biggest days and the simple things that make up your daily life: being around the dinner table with family, strong cups of coffee between friends, or chasing your kids around the backyard—each fleeting moment is made timeless through the lens of a camera.
Every life is precious and worth being documented at any stage no matter how small.
For me, creating art is just me being me.
For me, photography has always been about creating art with you and for you. As a multi-passionate creative, I bring my artist’s heart to everything I do. Whether it’s pottery, painting, singing, playing piano, dancing, or taking your photo…
So here’s what you, me and my camera can do together…
Whether you're looking to capture the moment when he says I do or show the world how *obsessed* you are with your toddler's smile, each photography package comes with complimentary jokes, encouragement, and guarantee you'll feel comfortable getting your picture taken.
