BEHIND THE LENS 

ABOUT BRITTANY

After 13 years and over 200 weddings, I've created a wedding experience that is completely unfussy and truly irresistible.

Exceptional, gorgeous photography doesn’t have to be so serious; it can be playful and celebratory. Wanna know what lights me up? Unscripted, in-between moments on fast-paced wedding days and salty cocktail hour snacks. It’s been a thrill to see my work featured in magazines and online, but I’m proudest of all the brides who turned into friends.

Something Wonderful

I'd love to hear from you! I take a limited number of wedding commissions annually - most clients reserve my services a year in advance. Every proposal is customized based on your day, vision, and needs.
