As a wedding photographer, I’ve met so many vendors and have seen so many stunning rings, but throughout my time in the industry, I’ve recognized how essential it is to work with people who really understand you as a couple. Sure, you can search for a ring that you love from a store, but imagine working with a skilled, full-service jeweler who brings the ring you’ve been dreaming of to reality!?
If that’s the sort of experience you’re looking for, Sara Gallo is your girl.

Sara Gallo Custom Jewelers is one of those special, local businesses that you just have to rave about. She has over 20 years of experience in the industry, years of education behind her, and now teaches in Lancaster, too! Her work has been featured in iconic environments, such as Vogue and The Today Show, but what’s so special is her mission: “”I’ve always believed jewelry is more than adornment—it’s a reflection of who we are. It marks life’s most meaningful moments and connects us to the past in deeply personal ways.”



I met Sara a few years ago, but recently had the chance to experience her magic on my own. A gorgeous heirloom from my grandmother was broken, and Sara helped me turn an unwearable gold necklace into two beautiful bracelets, one I was able to keep for myself and one I was able to gift my sister. I couldn’t have been more grateful for the new life that Sara brought to something I thought would lay around in a dresser forever.

So when she moved into a beautiful new space of her own on Prince Street, I knew I wanted to help her showcase her local shop with product and branding photography. Of course, Sara’s jewelry speaks for itself, but what really stands out to me is her commitment to crafting one-of-a-kind pieces that honor your personal style, vision, and story. I wanted to use my commercial photography skills to showcase her mission.
Now go grab your dream ring from Sara Gallo Custom Jewelers, and then come show it off to me in an engagement session!




” I originally reached out to Taylor because I loved her inclusive engagement and wedding photography. She shared some of her commercial work with me, and I was so impressed that I asked if she’d be willing to try her hand at jewelry photography. She jumped right in, did the research, experimented with a test shoot, and completely nailed it. Since then, she continues to amaze me with her creativity and somehow makes every shoot better than the last. On top of being incredibly talented, she’s just such a genuinely wonderful and beautiful person. I absolutely love working with her and am so excited to keep creating together and see what she does next!”
