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 that 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.
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. This inspired me to move from the East Coast to Colorado to take advantage of some of the country’s best skiing! I am so honored to be able to capture such important moments on the mountain with rad couples.
“Wow! I cannot say enough great things about Gabrielle. She is the absolute BEST wedding photographer, skier, and all-around person. She captured our snowboard wedding day perfectly at through sun, snow, and blizzard conditions. When our plans changed due to weather, she was completely on board. She helped us plan, directed us to get the perfect action shots, and helped bring our unconventional wedding vision to life.
She joined in on the fun with us and was on board for absolutely anything.
She is quick to respond, easy to work with, full of great ideas, and truly one of the nicest people around. Our wedding photos turned out better than I could have ever imagined! She captured so many special moments, especially with the less-than-ideal snow conditions. If you are in need of a wedding photographer for your special day, Gabrielle is sure to blow you away!””
How it works
Reserve Your Date
When you reach out to me we will work together on making your dreams possible to Ski the Day. First we’ll schedule a free consultation phone call to discuss what you are envisioning and how many hours of photography coverage would be right for you. Once you’re ready to lock this thing down, you’ll sign an online agreement and pay a retainer fee and you’re booked, baby!
Let’s Collaborate!
Once you’ve reserved your date, we’ll craft your day just for you and start the process of planning an awesome day. I’m your photographer both on and off the mountain- want to grab a drink in the lodge, or warm up in some hot springs after hitting the slopes? I’m there to capture your day as it unfolds.
Ski the Day
It’s finally here, the Best Day Ever! You’ll spend your day exactly how you want- on the slopes with your favorite person (and some very excited liftees congratulating you).
Relive Your Day
Within three days you’ll receive some sneak peek photos of your day! Eight to ten weeks from your date you’ll receive an online gallery of your photos to download and share with anyone and everyone. For video, highlight & documentary films on average take 3-12 weeks. You’ll then be able to look back on the best day ever with beautiful photos reflecting your adventurous hearts and love for each other. What could be better?!
FAQ’S
How experienced 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 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 also do videography?
Yes! I have a videography partner and we operate as a team. Soon more information on photo + video packages will be live on my site. In the meantime, if this is something you are interested in for your day, reach out and we can discuss the options and how it works!
Can you photograph our day even when we’re not skiing or boarding?
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 have a traditional church wedding and ski afterwards, elope on snowboards, or want photos of the two of you exploring town after a day on the mountain, I can document it all.
Do you charge differently depending on what mountain we choose?
All travel costs are included for every mountain in Wyoming.
Are you buying our ticket? Do we buy your ticket?
You are responsible for your own lift ticket or pass. My ticket does not cost you extra regardless of the mountain.
“I had a crazy dream to ski on my wedding day! When I first developed this wish I knew it would be a challenge to find a photographer who could capture our special day on and off the mountain. It turned out to not be a challenge when I found Gabrielle! She is a wicked good skier and an incredible photographer! She captured all the “ooo’s and ahhh’s” of the whole day! When we got our gallery back my husband and I truly felt like we were transported back to the most special day of our lives!
Gabrielle is very organized and so easy to work with! She communicated with me throughout the whole process and coordinated with all my other vendors to make the day run so smoothly! Gabrielle is truly the best combo of wedding photographer meets adventure! Do not hesitate to book with her!””

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.
