- ROOTED IN FAMILY AND THE STORIES WE KEEP
- DRAWN TO BEAUTIFUL LIGHT AND HONEST CONNECTION
- BLENDING THOUGHTFUL ARTISTRY WITH REAL MOMENTS
- PRESERVING TODAY FOR THE PEOPLE OF TOMORROW
I’m Gabby Thornton, the heart behind Dear Frame & Co., a wedding and portrait photographer based in Canton, Mississippi. What began with a camera in high school yearbook grew into a love for preserving people and their stories. Today, I photograph weddings, growing families, and the moments that become part of your family’s history.
Having lost loved ones before I could truly remember them, I know how much a photograph can hold. Motherhood has only deepened that meaning, reminding me how quickly little details change. Through gentle direction, honest connection, and timeless, true-to-color imagery, I create photographs that help you remember how this season felt.

SERVING Central Mississippi & Beyond
Some of the sweetest parts of life deserve to be remembered just as they felt. The anticipation before walking down the aisle, a newborn curled against your chest, your little ones reaching for your hand. These are the moments that draw me in and inspire the photographs we create together.
With gentle direction and a thoughtful eye for detail, I help you feel comfortable and present in front of the camera. Blending an editorial eye with honest storytelling, my work captures your season through timeless, true-to-color imagery and heartfelt black-and-white photographs.
