About
I have had Gabrielle Rondell Photography, my portrait, fine art & photo journalism business, since 2000. During that time I earned a teaching credential so I have ample experience instructing others. I am passionate about all things photography & art. I love teaching & helping others nourish their artistic attributes & interests. Ultimately helping those who want to explore art & photography more closely. Being a creative is in my DNA as I come from a family of artists!

Gabrielle shot photos of some of my jewelry designs for a competition. She did an excellent job especially on the detailed shots. She was very professional and had all the proper equipment to complete the project.

She worked closely with our family to get shots that captured our personalities. She was very patient with our toddler, working around her moods to capture lovely shots.

Super easy and pleasant to work with!
Had a shoot out at Woodside High School, Gabi got fantastic shots of my Varsity Tennis Boys.
I look forward to her shoot in April at my SF University HS JV Boys Tournament in San Francisco.
Thanks Gabi !!

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
First we get to know one another, I tell you a bit about myself and my background. Then I’ll ask you about your goals, needs and interests in learning and improving upon your photography.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have had a portrait, fine art, and photo journalism business for 25 years. I also have a teaching credential which enables me to educate others easily. I love working with people and sharing my passion about photography and art
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
It’s best if we have a brief consultation ahead of time where I learn about what your goals and needs are. Then I can offer you a price from there. Usually, it’s an hourly rate.
How did you get started teaching?
My mom was an art teacher, educator and jeweler which inspired me to get my teaching credential as well as becoming a photographer and artist.
What types of students have you worked with?
Early childhood education, tutoring school age children and I have worked with adults helping them with their photographic needs.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
I recently traveled to NYC. I have a passion for street photography so myself and my younger nephew (21) did a great deal of photographing while walking on the wonderful streets of NYC. We captured street scenes, people and everyday life on the subway and beyond in around this wonderfully vibrant city.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Look for someone who is kind, patient, interested in helping you and has a keen knowledgeable grasp about the subject you are looking to explore and learn more about. In my case, photography!
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
What can I do to improve my photography? What are my goal in taking private lessons from you? How long have you (the teacher) been a photographer?
What is your background in teaching?
What are my other interests in the creative arts? This can only help facilitate your own photographic experiences and techniques.
What kind of ideas and lessons can you (the teacher) offer me about learning more in the area of photography?
