Hello my name is gregory
and I want to tell your story
a chicago native in boston
Hello. My name is Gregory Hitchcock, and I've been passionate about photography for as long as I can remember. It all started with my dad handing me my very first camera as we watched the majestic trains thunder past us in suburban Chicago. From that moment on, I've been utterly captivated by exploring innovative ways to capture and share my unique perspective of the world with everyone I meet.
I'm also a bit of an adventurer at heart, always on the hunt for the next exotic and, fingers crossed, spicy culinary delight. I have a soft spot for mystery novels and diving into the world of 3D design. Then there's my never-ending quest for that perfect cup of coffee. Best of all, I get to share these thrilling pursuits with my three amazing kids, making each discovery and experience all the more special.

#1
Proud Father of 3
I am the proud father of three incredible children, each brimming with energy, curiosity, and spirited antics. They are the heartbeat of my life, bringing me immense joy and, admittedly, my most intense moments of stress.
#2
Coffee!
Java has been my more constant companion for quite some time. There is so much to do in this amazing work and apparently so little time. Life is short, stay awake for it!
#3
I love trying new food
I have a passion for exploring new culinary experiences, especially when they come with a kick of spice. Among my favorites is a fiery plate of Chinese hotpot; it's a delight that I consider not just a weakness, but a true indulgence.
#4
Calvin & Hobbes
I think it was reading these golden comics at an early age that gave me such a vivid imagination, a passion for being creative, and a love of story telling.
#5
Born & raised in Chicago
I hail from the vibrant city of Chicago, where my childhood was filled with cheering on the White Sox, hopping on the L train, and indulging in that iconic deep dish pizza. I've also had the thrill of standing atop what was once the tallest building in the world.
#6
I am a Kubrick fanatic
I'm a huge admirer of Stanley Kubrick's films. I'm really drawn to the way he arranges visual elements; it's fascinating how he meticulously sets up every single detail exactly as he intends.
Adventures taken with Camera in hand...
Photography is my first love, and my camera feels like an extension of myself, but there's more to my life than capturing weddings. I'm on an adventure with my loving wife and three incredible kids. We love hiking through breathtaking landscapes, swimming, trying new foods, and stargazing. Together, we make wonderful memories on this beautiful journey of life.
passion for capturing moments and storytelling
Back in college we didn't have Instagram.
we had Greg.
Everywhere I go, I'm captivated by the beauty around us. It's in my toddler's joy as he jumps into puddles, the patterns of clouds at sunrise, and the moment a groom first sees his bride. I'm passionate about capturing these moments and sharing them with the world. My camera is my brush, crafting images that are meaningful, authentic, and genuinely beautiful. My photography isn't about creating fiction; it's about showcasing real beauty. I use various techniques to enhance this beauty, ensuring what you see is as authentic as it is stunning.
How it all started for me
Throughout my life, I've tired to learn as much as possible. My journey began with aspirations of becoming an architect, fueled by my passion for math, creativity, and the allure of three-dimensional design. Yet, as I navigated the path toward that goal, life took me down several unexpected detours. It was during this journey that I discovered the art of photography, finding in it a powerful tool not only to explore the world around me but also to express my distinctive perspective to others. Despite this fulfilling discovery, I felt there was still something missing.
What I had been yearning for was the genuine connection between people. Observing the pure, raw, and beautiful emotions shared between two individuals has been an extraordinary experience. I came to understand that being a wedding photographer goes beyond merely taking beautiful pictures; it's about capturing those sincere moments of love and connection that are deeply profound.
Ever since I got into wedding photography, my life's taken some pretty unexpected turns. I've gotten to meet and work with some incredible couples. Each pair has their own special story, and getting to capture the start of their adventure together is just awesome.

Principles that guide me through the profession of Wedding Photography
Understanding your authentic style and personality
When a couple books with me, my priority is to understand their unique style and personality. My wedding photography approach isn’t one-size-fits-all. I won't impose portrait ideas that don't reflect who you are. Through thoughtful conversations, we'll create a photography plan that fits you perfectly.
A balance of authentic moments & Natural portraits
On your wedding day, I use a dual approach. I'll capture spontaneous, beautiful moments as they unfold, and I'll also suggest portrait ideas that reflect your unique style and identity. This way, you'll get stunning, authentic photos throughout the day.
a guided & fun experience
I captured my first wedding two decades ago and have since documented over five hundred unions. This experience has given me invaluable wisdom and problem-solving skills. As your photographer, I’ll guide you through planning and the wedding day itself, offering advice on locations, scheduling, transportation, and more. I’m here to help you navigate any challenges that may arise.
An uninterrupted day
On your wedding day, my goal is to capture breathtaking images without disrupting the flow or magic of your experience. I'll be unobtrusive, ensuring your special day remains perfect and undisturbed.
