Shooting with @dawnvgilmorevipphoto is such a fun and empowering experience 📸 😍
The Gather Team visited Dawn’s beautiful new studio in Biloxi at @sanctuary_biloxi for headshots and branding photos—and we are so excited to share the results! 🎉
Many of us walked in nervous and in our shells a bit, but Dawn had a bottle of champagne and a killer girl power playlist to bring out the queens in us 🥂
Dawn also gave us great coaching on posing, and shared photos with us as she was taking them, which resulted in these direct quotes:
“I’m so pretty!”
“That’s me?! Oh GIRL!”
*Fell off chair in shock*
Dawn has multiple studios within this space including:
📸 Studio lighting with many backdrop options
📸 Black light room
📸 A natural light studio
📸 As well as access to any of the other uniquely decorated spaces in The Sanctuary
Dawn has dedicated the past 15 years to empowering women and showcasing their stunning beauty, both inside and out, through her portrait sessions ❤️
“I believe that every woman, regardless of shape, size, color, or age, deserves to see herself in images that ignite a sense of confidence and self-love. My mission is to capture the essence of each individual, celebrating their unique beauty as a work of art,” says Dawn.
Thank you SO much Dawn for such an amazing experience and the most gorgeous photos! 🤩

Your next dinner date: Field's Steak & Oyster Bar Biloxi 💕 Here’s what we ordered: 🥃 Old fashioned🍹 Angels & demons 🦀 Crab swimmers 🥗 Salad special🥣 French onion soup🥩 🦞 Surf ‘n turf board 🦐 Pasta special 🥦 Broccoli au gratin🍃 Creamed spinach Y’all, this meal was phenomenal 🤩 To start, the crab swimmers really left an impression. We had never seen this part of a crab served up in a restaurant before—and with a remoulade too 🤤 Then, the salad special, it was so refreshing: fresh tuna, watermelon, and cantaloupe with a yummy vinaigrette 🍉 All of our entrees and sides were delicious—but the surf ‘n turf board was a real stunner: it was like a charcuterie board with lobster, two kinds of steak, oysters, shrimp, butter, bbq sauce, and even a rosemary garnish that was lit on fire and had the most glorious smell 🥰The pasta special was full of seafood and the pasta is made in-house too 🍝 We were thankful to have a reservation, cause on a Friday night this spot was packed—which means y’all probably already know how good it is! From the setting to the specials to the service, this was a five-star fine dining experience ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️And we happened to depart our 7pm reservation just as the Biloxi Shuckers Friday Fireworks started popping—what an epic dinner finale 🎆 Have you tried Field’s Biloxi?
