Forever inspired by light, the seasons, color and by the way people come together to create families out of the love they share. My goal is to always capture who you and your family are in that specific moment, to capture it so you can look back and relive that moment over and over again. I am a photographer working the Central Pennsylvania area.

Each session is designed to make your experience fun and stress-free, so that you walk away having had a great time and feeling confident in that fact that you will have amazing images to enjoy forever. This is not just a hobby or a job to me. It is my passion. I walk into each session and wedding wanting to capture the most incredible images that are focused around you.

It's been twelve long years in the making. Now it's time to create a lifelong memory of your senior's accomplishments with professional portraits. Elaine will tailor the session to your senior's personality and style, and packages are available for every budget. As a mom, I know how fast the years slip by.

Elaine is a wonderful photographer in Central PA! We used her for our engagement and wedding almost 8 years ago and it’s one of the best decisions I made in my wedding planning. Looking at the moments she captured, take me back to the special day even now. We moved out of the state, but have gone back to her twice! She did a session for updated photos of us as a couple and then a maternity session. She was so responsive and made scheduling sessions easy for our short timeline when we were in town. She even helped with a last minute location change to avoid rain and captured amazing shots of moments

This review is long overdue but well deserved. Elaine is so down to earth and made us feel comfortable from the 1st meeting to the day of the wedding. She went out of her way to make sure I got poses that I wanted or hoped for. Our picture location didn't go quite as planned and she quickly suggested alternatives that I think ended up being even better! She was also so willing to help me figure out timelines or anything wedding related, she was happy to help! I would recommend Elaine to anyone & will consider her for possible future needs!

Elaine photographed each of my three daughters senior portrait sessions. Each session was so much fun for the girls and the photograghs are beautiful. We will be using Elaine Gates for future portrait sessions!

Elaine has been taking our family pictures, all three of our children’s pictures, and pictures for our Christmas cards for the last 10 years. Anyone, who has even one child, knows how hard it can be to get that perfect picture which captures your child’s personality. Elaine is simply unbelievable. She takes what could be a stressful situation for a parent (and for a child) and makes it the most happy, fun experience ever. She not only makes it fun, but she also knows the best places in the area and my children are always excited to see where she is going to take us! In the end, it is so hard
