YOU DESERVE AN EXPERIENCE

AS ADVENTUROUS AND UNIQUE

AS YOU ARE

You get to choose how you want to celebrate the love that you and your partner share in a way that is true to you. You get to decide how you want to incorporate skiing and snowboarding into your wedding day. My ultimate goal is to help you create an experience that reflects you and your partner, and capture unforgettable memories, and provide you with beautiful images of the two of you shreddin’ the gnar on The Best Day Ever.

How ever you want to incorporate skiing or snowboarding, I’m here to capture it all. I’m passionate about skiing and photography, but even more passionate about helping you and your partner celebrate your wedding in a unique way that is true to you.

 Meet Your Photographer

Gabrielle Stowe

Ski the Day began after I photographed an awesome ski wedding in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. I realized that there was a lack of resources for adventurous couples who wanted to incorporate skiing or snowboarding into their wedding day. What gives me joy is knowing that I can help you make your dream day possible, even if you don’t quite know how yet.

I’m your photographer both on and off the slopes. However you decide to incorporate skiing or boarding into your day, I’m here to capture it. Whether you say your vows on snowboards at the top of the mountain, have a ceremony in town and then hit the slopes, or spend the day skiing til you find the perfect ceremony spot, I can document it all. I am so honored to be able to capture such important moments on the mountain with rad couples!

From skiing with my family as a child to competitive alpine ski racing for 10 years, my love for the mountains has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. New England has a special place in my heart- I was born in Connecticut and spent my childhood in Massachusetts. My family skied all over New England in the winter and there is nothing quite like it! I absolutely love living and skiing in the Rockies, but there is something magical about New England!

I am sooooo very thankful we invested in photography with Gabrielle at Ski The Day! We did a small elopement with just our kids, a pastor, and Gabrielle. It was totally worth the investment. I get so many compliments about the photos, they capture the day so well. Looking at them brings me great joy and helps me connect with the moment. If you do a skiing or snowboarding elopement, proposal, wedding, choose her, you won’t regret it!!

FAQ’S

ski-wedding-ceremony

How experienced of a skier are you? How do you ski AND take pictures?

I’m a very experienced skier. I began skiing at a young age and alpine raced for 10 years. Both years of skiing and photographing have allowed me to confidently combine both.

How experienced of a skier or boarder do I need to be?

As long as you feel comfortable navigating on skis or a board, you can Ski the Day. If you only want to stick to the green runs, that is completely okay! This is your day and you can make it exactly how you want it.

We don’t know how to include skiing and boarding into our day… all we know is that I want to be on the mountain when we get married. Can you help with this?

Yes! I would LOVE to help you. I want to hear allll about what you’re envisioning and I can help come up with a plan that is perfect for the two of you. Let’s make this happen!

Do you charge differently depending on what mountain we choose?

All travel costs are included for every mountain in New England.

A SECOND PHOTOGRAPHER

Highly recommended for larger weddings

This is a great option if you are having a larger or more formal wedding. The second photographer would be photographing the non-skiing portion of the day. Having two photographers allows more of your day captured, as well as different angles and more moments! If you and your partner are getting ready separately or in different locations, I would capture one of you and the second photographer would capture the other. If you are skiing during your cocktail hour and would like cocktail hour photographed, I would capture the ski photos while the second photographer would capture your guests.
