    Heidi is hands down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! After seeing the work she did for a friend's wedding, we were confident that she'd also do a great job on ours. However, our expectations were well exceeded! She was not only so sweet throughout the entire process but she was quick to respond, reminded us of important decisions, and really went the extra mile to make sure our day would be photographed in the perfect way. Since we were having a destination wedding, she even went ahead and did some recon for us, on the best places to take photos in Newport. Heidi was super flexible to work with but most importantly her photographs were simply amazing! We received our photos back so quickly and each one was better than the next. She captured the day flawlessly and her attention to detail and creativity truly shines in her work. We could not be happier with Heidi’s services and hope to one day get to use her again. Thank you Heidi for capturing our day perfectly; we can't wait to look at these photos for years to come!

    Gamula Photography captured our wedding in such magical shots. Heidi turned the rustic venue (a hunting and fishing club) in to something spectacular! Her professionalism and advice shined through in every sweet picture she took! We couldn't be more happy with all the stunning pictures from our wedding day. We love all of them!!! -Mr. & Mrs. Dick

    Heidi Gumula and her second shooter were amazing from start to finish. Heidi has great communication skills and reached out to me often to find out if there was anything I needed or to get updates on the schedule as it was constantly changing. We loved getting to know her with our engagement session and felt really comfortable. She made us feel like we were doing a great job being photographed (even though we both know we aren't very photogenic). The day of the wedding she was extremely flexible and allowed us to start taking pictures at two different locations with the guys and girls getting ready. Unfortunately we had a rainy day for our wedding, but you can barely tell by looking at the pictures. Heidi was super creative and found us a great spot to still enjoy our venue and take pictures outside despite the drizzle. She was also great after the ceremony and zipped us down the road in her car to capture a double rainbow when the rain stopped for a few minutes. We cannot stop looking at all of the pictures and cannot say enough great things about Heidi and her work. We would recommend her to anyone and everyone.

    Besides marrying the love of my life, the next best wedding-related decision was hiring Gumula Photography for all our wedding festivities: rehearsal dinner, wedding ceremony, and reception! Heidi and her team are incredibly talented photographers, easy to work with, a calming presence, professional, and able to get all your dream shots! Seriously affordable, an absolute dream of a wedding photographer, I would seriously scoop her up if she's available for your wedding. I cannot stop looking at my wedding photos, I love them so much! Thank you, Gumula Photography!

    Working with Heidi was amazing! My husband and I did both our engagement shoot and wedding (June 2017) with her and could not be any happier with the experience and the photos. Heidi made the sessions comfortable and laid back, we were able to be ourselves in front of her and the camera, which I believe helped our pictures to look so natural.

    Heidi helped our wedding go off without any complications or delays and helped us to stay on the busy time table. She was also able to provide us with a number of ideas on where to do our first look near our venue. The setting was perfect.

    Heidi is professional, responsive, and goes above and beyond for her clients. We received all of our finished photos approximately two and a half weeks after our wedding. I was so impressed, I have friends who waited months for their photos.

    My husband and I could not stress enough how in love we are with Heidi and her work! I wouldn't choose anyone else to capture the important memories in our life, infact we are using her for our newborn session next April!

    This is a long overdue review of photographer Heidi Gumula. (gumulaphotography.com) My delay is due to not finding adequate words to describe how talented and wonderful she is.
    The photos that Heidi took of my daughter’s wedding day were perfection. Heidi is a consummate professional with a very sweet temperament and an incredible eye for photography. The pictures she took were exquisite. They completely captured the romance and happiness of the day. We have a lively family, and there was a lot going on the entire day. Heidi captured it all!
    We have big families and we wanted family photos with every last person in the pictures. Heidi was not only able to accommodate us, but she made it fun for everyone and took fabulous pictures. She worked very hard all day to make sure our photos were outstanding, and she was kind and sweet to everyone. She traveled quite a long way for the wedding too.
    Heidi is easygoing and she managed to get the most beautiful pictures ever, even though we had a rainy wedding day. I was completely thrilled at how perfect the pictures were. In fact during my first review of the wedding pictures, they were so gorgeous I had trouble seeing them I was crying so hard. Heidi is incredibly talented. It is simply impossible to find a better wedding photographer.

    I cannot say enough about Heidi and how amazing she was at our wedding! We used Heidi to take some Christmas photos for us in 2013 and when Trevor proposed in 2014 I knew we needed Heidi!! She was literally the 1st person to know we were engaged :) Throughout the day she was always there snapping pics but never intruding, she was super flexible when we were running late, she was great with the horribly hectic wedding party/family photos, she took me and Trevor off for some photos right when the sun was setting and made it a point to get the perfect shots. We've only had 1 sneak peek but I know the pictures are going to be fabulous!!! I would highly recommend Heidi for any event...we are so glad we choose her and are looking forward to seeing all the amazing shots she took! She helped make our day perfect. Thanks Heidi!!! xoxox

    Heidi in one word – amazing! I found her online while trying to find more pictures of the venue we were going to be getting married at and her photography blew me away. I was instantly taken by it and she had photographed many other beachy/nautical weddings like ours was going to be (including a couple weddings at our venue, Shining Tides). I had one phone conversation with her and then booked her within 30 mins of getting off the phone. I didn’t speak to any other photographers – I didn’t feel the need to because her photography style and her friendly personality was exactly what we were looking for in a photographer (after all, you are spending the entire day with this person on your wedding day so you have to like the person!). Being photographed can be so awkward (and not something I typically enjoy), but she made my now husband and I feel so comfortable. Heidi was super responsive during the entire planning process, and was proactive in setting up a meeting a few weeks before the wedding in order to go over final details. She was an absolute pleasure to work with, and I wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again if I ever need a photographer.

    Heidi was amazing to work with, we cannot say enough great things about her and her photography! She took the time to meet with us before our wedding to get to know us and what our expectations were. Our guests complimented how professional she was. Heidi and her assistant, Kiera, got all of the pictures we wanted, all the while barely noticing they were there. She genuinely cared about capturing everything we wanted. Our wedding album is beautiful and great quality. We highly recommended her!

    Heidi Gumula is a fantastic photographer! It was an absolute pleasure to have her be a part of my daughter's special day! She blended in seamlessly and got some wonderful, candid shots of our family and friends. My daughter loved working with her and said that she felt so comfortable and natural with Heidi. She is friendly and sweet and wonderful to work with!

    Heidi and her team were wonderful to work with preparing for our event and during. The pictures really show the story and how much fun everyone had. We would definitely work with Heidi Gumula Photography again.

    Booking Gumula Photography for our wedding was easily one of the best decisions that we made for our wedding. We had an amazing day, and Heidi Gumula captured it perfectly. Working with Heidi was easy and fun. She gave us great direction throughout the process (engagement photos, wedding day and with the album afterwards) but was also super open to our suggestions. Our wedding party and wedding guests are still talking about how much they loved working with Heidi and how great our photos are almost a year after our wedding. Your wedding is one of the most important and beautiful days of your lives, and your photographs are going to be the longest lasting memento of that day. If you choose Gumula Photography to capture the day, you will get an incredibly talented, creative and fun photographer who will guide you through the entire process and produce some absolutely fantastic pictures to help you remember you day.

    WOW! I can't possibly say enough wonderful things about Heidi's photography. Having seen her work from my brother and sister's weddings over the past few years, I immediately knew who to call when I got engaged. Despite trusting that I was in good hands, I couldn't have imagined how well Heidi and Audrey would translate our wedding day onto film! The pictures were truly breathtaking! They took what can often be an awkward process of getting your photo taken and made it a fun, memorable experience, reminding us every step of the way to stop and enjoy the moment together. Heidi was unobtrusive, sneaking in to get the best shots when you weren't looking without disturbing a second of the day. She has a true creative vision and her photography style tells a beautiful story. Everyone who saw our wedding photos complimented on how amazing they came out and how different they were from the normal formal wedding shots you see. Heidi isn't just a great photographer - she's an artist. She even got the most AMAZING sunset pictures from our wedding night - something we hoped for but didn't think would be realistic in the chaos of the day. I cannot recommend her highly enough to any bride and groom. If you want someone who will truly capture the emotion of the day versus just an image, give Heidi a call.

    She captured amazing moments that will be treasured forever! Our family and friends were truly impressed by both our engagement photos and wedding photos! Thank you Heidi!

    The photographer was always been at the top of my list of “wedding priorities” and when I began planning a wedding I looked high and low for someone who’s style fit the vision for my wedding. My cousin got married a few years before me and used Heidi Gumula Photography and was extremely satisfied by her work. Now, after my wedding I can see why. Heidi and her assistant were beyond AMAZING. They were professional and discrete to the point where you did not even notice them until you were the one being photographed, they were energetic, happy and fun to be around. Heidi pays attention to the smallest details that even you might not think of. I remember thinking on the plane for my honeymoon I never took a picture of my engagement or wedding ring. But apparently when I gave it to my sister to hold for the ceremony Heidi took it and got a picture of it with my dress! She captured special moments of me with my flower girls and mother and I never even saw the camera. Being in medical school I was likely one of the most unorganized brides and I was definitely hard to get ahold of but Heidi was patient and sweet during the whole process. She is so easy going and it is impossible not to love her. Almost immediately after the wedding I receive my teaser, then soon after she posted a bunch of pictures on her blog and in just over two weeks I received all of my pictures, this you know is important since I have been dreaming of wedding pictures since I was a little girl. I loved everything about Heidi and her work and I would recommend her with the upmost certainty you will love her and your pictures.

    Oh p.s. did I mention I changed my wedding date less than 6 months before? And she said it was fine she was free that day too no change in price or problems!

    Heidi was beyond great working with us for our wedding day and engagement photos. She was so kind and well organized that she put us at ease over many of the details of the day. She also made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, even though neither of us considered ourselves very photogenic! Our photos are amazing - I can't stop looking at them - and they will be treasured memories for us and our family in the years to come. I would recommend her services to all of our family and friends and anyone else looking to capture their special moments in the best way!

    Heidi was amazing to work with! Because we had planned a weekend wedding, we asked her to photograph the events for the whole weekend, and she happily obliged. She was flexible, always cheerful and simply a delight to work with! By the end of the weekend it was like she was part of the family. Also, the finished product is breathtaking! Her work is absolutely beautiful!

    Heidi was the perfect choice for our wedding day! Not only was she super polite and extremely helpful, but she also is incredibly talented! She did an amazing job capturing our special day and went above and beyond with a few surprises! It was wonderful to see our wedding day through her eyes because her images looked like they were taken by a close friend; someone who captured all the amazing memories that we will never forget. We would ABSOLUTELY recommend her to anyone so they can be as happy as we are! :)

    Heidi was truly a joy to work with. She took the time to find out exactly what we were looking for in a photographer and what we hoped to get out of our photos. She was available throughout our entire engagement to answer questions and always did so in a timely manner. Most impressive was her sincere reaction to our wedding, and to us as a couple: we could tell that she genuinely enjoyed working with us and was excited to shoot our wedding. On the actual day, she was easy-going but efficient, making the best use of the time we had hired her for. Our guests have marveled over our photos, saying they look like they came from a high-fashion magazine!

    Gumula Photography was the first and only photographer we interviewed for our wedding. Once we met with Heidi we knew she would be an amazing addition to our special day. It was one of the BEST investments we made for our wedding. Remember- pictures last forever! Heidi and her staff are extremely professional and have such a creative eye when it comes to taking pictures. They listen to specific requests and make everyone feel completely comfortable behind the camera. Heidi is so talented behind the camera and behind the scenes. She photographed our engagement session, my bridal shower, our wedding and even custom designed our Save-the-Dates and Thank You notes.

    I highly recommend using Gumula Photography for any type of photography service! I look forward to utilizing her talents again in the future.

    I am happy to speak to any prospective customers. My contact information can be obtained from Heidi Gumula.

    Heidi took absolutely stunning photos of our wedding day. I had been initially uncertain about having a wedding photographer because I was worried the pictures would look formulaic, but Heidi's pictures were total Art and captured the spirit of our wedding perfectly! She totally understood the vibe we were going for and ran with it to incredible results! I am so happy to have Heidi's photos, not only to remember the day, but also just to show people how cool the pictures are! Thank Heidi for an absolutely amazing job!

    Words cannot describe how AMAZING Heidi and her second shooter Keira were. After only chatting with Heidi on the phone, I knew she would be the best photographer for our wedding. After describing all the little details of our wedding, I was confident in Heidi that she knew exactly what to do!! She is on pinterest which is great because she could see exact photos that I wanted, and she made sure to make them happen!! She knew how to take the perfect pictures without being "in the way" at all! The preview photos that Heidi sent us were more than I could have ever dreamed of! She knew exactly how to capture the most memorable moments, she was the perfect photographer for us! I highly recommend that everyone in the Rhode Island area uses Gumula Photography to feel like their wedding is straight out of a magazine!
