Gia Chong Photography - Stockton Family Photographer

Gia Chong Photography - Stockton Family Photographer

HELLO TO FAMILY PHOTOS THAT "FEEL LIKE US"

Hi there! I’m Gia, your Stockton Senior and Family Photographer! My goal is to capture the essence of your kids in this incredible season of life.  I’ll provide you with a fun, comfortable and relaxed session that leads to genuine smiles and pictures that “feels like us.”

Let me take the stress out of Family and Graduation Photo Sessions. Helping you with outfit selection, scouting locations and coming up with poses are PART OF MY JOB!  As your personal guide, you’ll enjoy the VIP treatment from when you inquire about photos, to your relaxed and fun session, to when you receive your gallery.

Life with kids is a wild, beautiful adventure! Gia Chong Photography is here to celebrate every step of the way with you.

What They're Saying

“

I gifted my wife with a Family Session for Mother’s Day this year, since we haven’t ever had family photos done. My wife and I enjoy Gia’s style, professionalism, communication, and think her packages are a great value. We highly recommend her!

Gia Chong is a talented photographer and an absolute delight to work with. She is extremely nice, super fun during shoots, and totally professional all at the same time! She has been taking our pictures for over three years now and we have never been disappointed with her work. She has photographed our engagement pictures, pregnancy announcement, maternity pictures, and most recently, our lifestyle newborn photos. She always has fun ideas for props and poses and always helps us look our best! You won’t regret choosing Gia for your next photography needs!

I am so thankful that I got to work with Gia for a graduation photoshoot for my brother and I. I can’t praise her enough for being so responsive, personable, and organized, which was shown through her clear and descriptive emails. I really appreciated that she offered to Zoom us before our shoot, in order to get to know us, ask us questions and listen to any ideas that we had in mind. I loved that she valued our opinions and collaborated with us beforehand so we knew what to expect. We had a great experience during the actual photo session, as Gia made us feel comfortable and relaxed. Her energy during the photoshoots is fun, energetic, positive, and she can really make you laugh! The pictures are absolutely beautiful & we are so happy to have that special moment in time captured. If you are looking for a photographer to capture your special moments or celebrations, Gia is perfect!

Gia was an absolute gem to work with. She was so patient and interactive with our one year old. We loved literally every single photo she took. So excited to have fun, family photos for the holidays and we can't wait to book with her again!!

It's #NationalCoffeeDay! If you have followed me for awhile, you know I like iced coffee drinks and the @Starbucks summer cups.  Whenever we travel, my son and husband know that I will check the local Starbucks to see if they have a unique cup I can add to my collection :)⁠
⁠
@morganpotterphoto was so game when I told her I wanted photos with 10 of my Starbucks cups.  I didn't realize how tall they are until I stacked them! ⁠
⁠
Enjoy a cup of coffee for me today, will you? :)⁠

Why a Red Truck theme? I noticed Red Truck Christmas photos popping up on Instagram feeds around 2019 and gaining popularity ever since. ⁠
⁠
The Vintage Truck is a great theme for us photographers to dress up and get creative with. Props like Christmas trees, sleds, snowmen, gifts are just the starting point!  It definitely lends well to family holiday cards 😊⁠
⁠
If you have holiday cards and family pictures on your to do list, message me today.  Nov 4 and 12 still have some open spots! Let me help you check it off your list 😊⁠

What a difference 11 months make!  She has grown so much from the last holiday shoot I did with her family in Oct 2022. See my previous post to see what I mean. Thankful to Aaron and Ana for being such great friends, models and clients through the years!  A special shout out to Champaign Ranch @champaignranch for making my first session at their property a super pleasant one :)⁠
⁠
If you are ready for Holiday vibes, message me to book your Christmas Mini Sessions :) I have 1 spot left for Champaign Ranch Mini Sessions on Oct. 29th!⁠
