Gail Werner Photography bio picture

Welcome to my Blog!

Gail Werner is a central Indiana wedding and portrait photographer.
Here’s where she tells you she likes the feel of the ocean and the
taste of champagne. Oh wait …

Truth is, she does love the ocean (when she can make it to a
coast!), but what she loves more is documenting the lives of her
clients — big days, little moments, they all carry meaning and deserve
to be captured.

This blog is where Gail shares her current client work and don’t be
surprised to find plenty of personal antecedotes on here as well.
Because when it comes to her life, Gail’s pretty much an open book. And
speaking of books, well, she loves those too. And her husband. And her
dog. So stick around and find out what else she likes or head over to www.gailwernerphoto.com to take a peek at her portfolio. Want to get a hold of her? E-mail Gail at gail@gailwernerphoto.com.

And just for the record, Gail also likes pina coladas but draws the line at getting caught in the rain.

Gail Werner is available for travel to any location.

How Facebook corralled me into creating a fan page

For a long time now I’ve been comfortable posting my photography work to my personal Facebook page. I didn’t want to create a business page because a) it’d be one more thing for me to update and b) who isn’t a smidge annoyed by all the random messages they get from people they don’t know...

The proof I needed …

For most of my weddings, I’m hired as a one-gal show. If I do have someone accompany me, it’s in the role of assistant, never a second shooter. That all changed earlier this month when Courtney Reece accompanied me as second shooter to my most recent wedding. You know how people always talk about how...

New wedding albums for a new year

I’m super excited to announce that I’ve selected a new vendor for my wedding albums and now that I’ve got my first sample album in hand, I couldn’t be happier with the results! Do you all remember Gaylena and Kevin’s GORGEOUS wedding? I couldn’t think of a better couple for the sample album of my...

The philosophy behind sharing stories

So for those of you who took the time to check out Michele and Eric’s gorgeous wedding last week, you may have noticed the new twist I’m offering for my clients and that’s sharing their story in a new, unique and creative way.
I believe everybody loves a good love story. That, whether they realize it...

I’m introducing a new line of both guest books and albums starting with my 2010 brides and I’m so excited to play a game of show-and-tell with all of you!
When Nicole contacted me shortly after her fall engagement session about wanting a guest book, I happily reported I was in the process of seeking a...

It’s an honor to be nominated — FOR REAL IT IS

If you pay attention to this kind of stuff (and boy do I!), you know yesterday was the day they announced the nominees for this year’s Academy Awards. You know how the tech kids were all aflutter over last week’s news of the iPad? Well, that’s how I get when it comes time for film...

How (but more importantly, why) I got started in photography

I remember it like it was yesterday. Falling asleep the night of my wedding happier than I thought it was possible a person could be. Beside me was my best friend, my HUSBAND (the first few times you say that is so surreal!) and in my mind what exactly did I remember about my wedding...

I be up in B&N just working on my bizness …

So the POINT of this blog entry (aside from setting up a Fergie song that may get stuck in your head the way it’s stuck in mine – THANK YOU FOR THAT EARWORM MR. LOCAL DJ) is to talk about books. Specifically BUSINESS BOOKS.
Here’s the funny thing: In all the bookstores I’ve been to (a...

30 Hours to Recharge

They say the first step in treating an addiction is self-admission, right? Well if that’s true, here goes Internet: I AM ADDICTED TO MY PHOTOGRAPHY BUSINESS.
I’m fully aware this problem plagues ALL small business owners. And since I’m the full-admission type, I’m OK with being one of the ones who puts those seven words...
