I’m Gesiel, a maternity, newborn, and family photographer

Capturing authentic emotions and timeless stories since 2008

Rather than traditional studio setups, I focus on outdoor natural light and cozy in-home sessions across Michigan creating a relaxed, warm experience where you can simply enjoy the moment.

15+ Years Behind the Lens

I’ve been photographing professionally since 2008. Over the years, I’ve learned that the most beautiful portraits happen when you completely forget the camera is there.

No Studio Needed

Nature and your own home are my favorite backdrops. I specialize in outdoor locations across Michigan and cozy in-home lifestyle sessions filled with natural light.

Stress-Free Sessions

Photoshoots should feel lighthearted and easy. Whether a newborn needs a break or toddlers are full of energy, we always move completely at your family’s pace.

Simple Life Lover

When I’m not holding a camera, I enjoy life's quiet moments, exploring Michigan’s scenic spots, and spending time at home with my family and two cats, Jimmy and Julie.

“Gesiel was a pleasant surprise for me. He is a very polite, patient person, full of ideas and creativity that helps us feel more comfortable during photo shoots. He was very patient and outgoing with my daughter (at the time she was 21 months old) and also with me, with another 1-month-old baby in my arms. I recommend Gesiel's work with the certainty that satisfaction will be guaranteed!”
