Hello!

I’m Brent, the dad with a camera behind Hello & Co. As a dedicated father of 3 — and loving husband to a hardworking OB/GYN — I believe documenting real life is one of the most meaningful things we can do for our families. I’m glad you’re here, and I’d love to get to know you better! 

I'm brent gilmore.

I cannot put into words how much I love the photos from Brent! He was so great to work with ahead of time, understanding about how hectic life would be when the baby was born and absolutely fantastic with our 3.5yo and newborn.

He fully understands how to make everyone and especially our new baby as comfortable as possible while capturing the true emotions that are spilling out. Brent knows how to swaddle, cradle, and use the light and surroundings to bring the emotions through the lens and into your heart.

Brent was awesome with our kids (aged 4 and 2.5) and took plenty of time to go at their pace. He delivered many more pictures than the minimum we were promised and we are so happy with how they all came out!
