We couldn't possibly think of a signle thing that we would have changed when it comes to our Wedding Day and Gillian's photography. Todd and I were introduced to Gillian during our Engagement session while we were visiting in Myrtle Beach. We fell in love with her personality. She made our engagement session truley special and gifted us with the most beautiful pictures.
We are from upstate New York so we were very dissapointed that someone as talented as Gillian was so far away and that we would have to find someone else for our Wedding. Who knew that Gillian would actually offer to come all the way out to Syracuse, NY and then drive an hour to our reception just to capture our special day.
Our wedding day brought some rain, cool weather and we ran into a few areas where we seemed to have lack of time for more photos. However, Gillian worked her magic and we have no doubt that our wedding pictures will be just as beautiful as our engagement session.
Thank you so much, Gillian Reinghardt for your dedication and for offering your services to Todd and I on our Wedding Day.

Gillian and her team were aweseome! They were so laid back and friendly, and put everyone at ease. A lot of fun to work with, and the photos are awesome!

Gillian was incredible to work with. She captured every moment exactly how I remembered it. Her attention to detail and ability to think outside the box made for some incredible pictures. Her fun loving personality was an awesome asset to our big day.

Carolina Studios is fan-freaking-tactic! Gillian is non stop during your entire wedding. If you do not get great pictures then you are just not meant to have your picture taken. Loved her vibe, enthusiasm, personality, everything. And her assistants were great also! Will recommend her for any pictures.

We were so happy with Gillian for our wedding. She was really helpful and responsive both before and after the wedding.
Our guests thought she was just great and so fun and professional. We were happy that she was able to help us get the pictures we were hoping for in the midst of our wedding day.
Thanks so much!

Dear future brides:
Picking the right photographer might be one of the most important decisions during the planning process.
I can honestly say: I can't stop watching our video or viewing our pictures that Gillian produced. My entire family is in complete awe over her incredible work. I get chills when I look at the pictures (good chills) Gillian was everywhere capturing every candid moment ... which is exactly what I wanted her to do. Nothing looked posey and we had such a great time working with her. I never thought I looked good on camera until Gillian got behind that camera. Don't even waste your time looking ... she is fun, smart and passionate about her job!
I can't wait to have babies so she can be a part of it all!

The first time I spoke with Gillian I felt like we clicked. Our first conversation was like talking to an old friend. I immediately choose her services and extremely happy about my decision. She was so accommodating and helpful from the very beginning. We did our engagement pictures in October and we received so many compliments about how wonderful the pictures came out. Due to the exceptional quality of the photos, we were able to use them on our save the dates and invitations. I highly recommend Gillian's macrophotography for upclose shots of your rings.
The day of the wedding went so smoothly. Gillian and her assistant, John, were there for me throughout the day. She helped me keep calm before the ceremony and was right there if I had a question about how to do something. She is quick and stealth, which will result in some amazing candid shots. Very patient with family members and keeps things moving!
I am hoping we can use Carolina Photo Studios services again!!!

When I started planning my wedding the first thing on my list was to find the perfect photographer, a know it was a little out of order but our wedding pictures had to be perfect! I met with a few photographers before I met with Gillian. As soon as Gillian and I met I fell in love with her work! She really is amazing; she fit my personality 100%! We combined a couple of her packages to fit what I was looking for, and she was so easy to work with. I knew I had to find someone that could work with anyone because my fiancé was not really into taking pictures and was not thrilled that I had set up an engagement session. When we talked to Gillian about the engagement session, Joe and I wanted something different and not the typical engagement posed pictures! We had so much fun and that was only just the beginning. My bridal portraits were just as wonderful! I hadn’t originally planned a bridal session but after the engagement, it was a must! I had too much fun that day with Gillian and Corey; we took pictures pretty much the whole day! Our wedding went so smoothly and I hardly even noticed Gillian and her crew! They did such a wonderful job and took a million pictures! When I got the wedding pictures back they were sensational! I was so impressed how perfect they came out. The day really does fly by and you need those pictures to remember how perfect the day went! I would highly recommend Gillian, she is wonderful with children and will make you husband laugh (which sometimes can be tough to do). I can’t wait to work with her again! Thank you to Gillian and her crew! I couldn’t be any happier that you were there to capture our beautiful day!
Love,
Jordyn and Joe Cunningham

Carolina studios is amazing, I choose Gillian to take our wedding photos back in 2008. The services and products she provided us with were top notch. My husband and I enjoyed working with her so much that when our son was born this past year we choose to go back to her for family photographs. She is very easy to work with and understands what you want.

Captured every perfect moment in our special day! Couldn't have asked for a better photographer!

Carolina Studios did an amazing job at my wedding this past May! I had a destination wedding and Gillian was extremely flexible when it came to scheduling meetings. The prices were very reasonable! I could not have asked for a more professional photographer.

Gillian will not only be your photographer, but she will become your friend. When I started looking for photographers, I wanted somebody that was easy to talk and get along with. I met with a couple others before coming across Gillian and they all seemed so cold, and asking questions and getting information out of them was like pulling teeth. The first time I called Gillian we spoke on the phone for about an hour, just like we were old friends. I knew then she was the one. We did engagement pictures, the wedding, and newborn pictures when our son was born with Gillian, and all of the pictures are just FABULOUS! You will not regret choosing her for all your photography needs. I wish I wasn't moving, because otherwise Gillian would be our photographer FOR LIFE! :)

Gillian and her associate Michelle have been wonderful during the wedding process...from taking an afternoon full of engagement shots, capturing our wedding day and then working together to purchase items! They were so easy to talk to and made us feel very comfortable from the beginning. While walking through the streets of Charleston, S.C. for our engagement session we were amazed at how quickly we forget the cameras were there and just enjoyed ourselves. This continued on our wedding day and we were able to have some amazing candid shots due to their quick thinking and ability to "be everywhere". I would highly recommend Gillain and her studio to any bride who wishes to feel completely at ease and have 100% trust in their photographers!

"If I could tell a story in words . . . I wouldn't need a camera."

Hi!
Welcome to Carolina Studios! My name is Gillian Reinhardt and I am the Artist, Owner, and Mastermind behind all you see on this website.
My art is my voice, a piece of me. I have to pinch myself daily because I get invited to peoples weddings not just to witness this beautiful event but to record it and tell the love story of 2 people for them to cherish for the rest of their
lives. I just love what I do!
I consider myself not just a photographer but a storyteller. My job is not to take photographs of people but to tell their story. I want you to look back at your photographs and see not just what was but to remember the story behind
the captured moment. I focus on expressions, emotions, and relationships because those are the items that trigger our memories.
My inspiration is my family. I could not have gotten luckier than when I met my fabulous husband Joe. We have a 7 year old princess named Alexis, and our 19 month old Queen (for those that know her, yes, she is the Queen) Sophia.
Our dog Jeter rounds out this crazy crew. They challenge me every day and I can't imagine my life without them or any less hectic :)
I hope you enjoy my website but if you’re looking for that human touch, please give me a call. I would LOVE to get a cup of coffee and sit and chat.
Enjoy!
Gillian :)
