Your wedding day is a celebration of your love—not a photoshoot. It’s about the connection you share, the vows you exchange, and the moments spent with the people who matter most. As a documentary-style wedding photographer, my approach is all about capturing the real—the unscripted emotions, the fleeting glances, the laughter, and the love that naturally unfolds throughout your day.
I’m not here to stage or orchestrate every moment. Instead, I focus on telling your story as it happens, preserving the genuine emotions that make your wedding uniquely yours. Because when you look back at your photos years from now, I want you to feel the day exactly as it was—not just see it.
a heartfelt personalized approach to your wedding day
how i do things differently
not just your photographer
This isn’t a show-up-and-shoot kind of experience. When you book me, you’re not just hiring a photographer—you’re gaining a creative partner.
From helping guide design choices to crafting a photo approach that reflects your unique vision, I’m with you every step of the way. I take on the role of quiet observer when the moment calls for it—but also step in as a creative director when it’s time to shape something elegant and editorial.
We collaborate well before the wedding day to make sure the photos you receive actually reflect your story, your style, and your heart. About a month out, we’ll sit down together for an in-depth Pinterest planning call. I want to know not just what you pinned, but why—was it the light? The emotion? The aesthetic? That level of understanding allows me to photograph your day with total intention, and a personalized eye.
If you’re dreaming up a wedding that’s not just beautiful but deeply meaningful, and you’re craving a photographer who will collaborate with you like an artist and a friend—you’re in the right place.
a different approach to engagement sessions
Before I ever pick up a camera, I want to get to know you—who you are as individuals and as a couple. Your engagement session isn’t just about snapping pretty photos; it’s about creating an experience that feels authentic, comfortable, and uniquely yours.
Instead of diving straight into a session, we can start by meeting up for dinner—no pressure, no posing, just genuine conversation. Over a meal, we’ll talk about how you met, your journey together, and the little things that make your relationship yours. I want to know what makes you laugh, what stories you tell, and what love looks like through your eyes. This isn’t just a meeting; it’s the foundation for the photos that will follow.
When it comes time for your session, we’ll create something that truly reflects you. Whether it’s a cozy, laid-back evening at your favorite spot or a more traditional setting with beautiful light and classic portraits, we’ll document your love in a way that feels effortless and real. No stiff poses, no forced moments—just you, together, in a way that makes sense for your story. And if you’re feeling nervous? Don’t worry. I’ll guide you every step of the way so you can relax, be yourselves, and actually enjoy the experience.
Over the years, I’ve learned that beautiful photos don’t just happen—they’re built through trust, intention, and thoughtful design. That’s why my approach goes far beyond showing up with a camera. I collaborate closely with my couples from the beginning—offering insight, guidance, and creative direction to help bring their vision to life.
This process is rooted in deep care. About a month out, we’ll walk through your Pinterest board together—not just to gather inspiration, but to understand why you’re drawn to what you saved. Is it the lighting? The pose? The feeling? The more I understand, the more personal and aligned your photos will be.
I also co-own The Roam Collective Co., a retreat and styled shoot business for photographers. With over 50 shoots styled and curated under my belt, I’ve learned how to see a wedding day not just through the lens—but as a whole visual experience. That eye for styling, lighting, and storytelling shapes the way I approach every wedding I photograph.
Because when we’re aligned—creatively and emotionally—your photos become something more than beautiful. They become yours in every sense.
Collaboration is at the heart of what I do.
More than anything, I want your wedding photos to feel like stepping back into the day itself—to look at an image and instantly remember not just how it looked, but exactly how it felt to be there. The butterflies before walking down the aisle, the way your partner squeezed your hand during the vows, the overwhelming joy of being surrounded by your favorite people—I want to document it all, exactly as you experienced it.
Your wedding day isn’t just a series of posed moments; it’s a collection of feelings, fleeting glances, and little in-betweens that make it yours. My goal is to preserve not just the big, beautiful highlights, but the quiet, unspoken emotions too. Because years from now, when you flip through your photos, I don’t want them to just tell a story—I want them to bring you right back to it.
documenting the way it
My approach is all about telling the full story—capturing raw, unscripted moments while also delivering timeless, beautifully composed images. I seamlessly blend documentary photography with a refined editorial touch, giving you a gallery that feels both real and elevated.
For most of the day, I’ll document things as they naturally unfold—the laughter, the tears, the fleeting glances. But when the moment calls for it, like during portraits or key details, I’ll gently guide you to capture those classic, polished shots that stand the test of time.
This balance allows your photos to feel effortless and true to you—so when you look back, you’ll remember not just how your wedding looked, but exactly how it felt.
A DOCUMENTARY APPROACH
what working together will look like
Every part of my process is tailored to you two and your love.

the discovery call
After you inquire, we’ll schedule a no-pressure video call to get to know each other. Since every couple and every wedding is different, this call gives us a chance to talk through your vision, your priorities, and what matters most to you.
These calls are an important part of my process—because this isn’t a one-size-fits-all experience. This is a collaborative relationship, and I’m not just showing up as another vendor on your wedding day. I’m here as your photographer, creative partner, and someone who genuinely cares about making your day feel intentional and true to you.
After we chat, I’ll send over your personalized wedding investment guide—tailored specifically to your day and everything you’re dreaming up.
your engagement session
If you’ve added an engagement session, this is where the fun really begins.
Using your questionnaire, I’ll help you plan an intentional session that feels
like you—whether that’s starting with coffee at your favorite spot, strolling
through your neighborhood, or heading somewhere that holds meaning in
your story. This session isn’t just about getting great photos (though we’ll
definitely do that)—it’s about creating space for you two to be fully
yourselves in front of the camera.
all the planning
The time between your engagement session and our timeline-building call is
all about dreaming and planning. This is when you’ll start crafting your
Pinterest board, gathering inspiration, and dialing in the details of your day.
While I’m not a wedding planner, I’m absolutely here for you every step of the
way—whether it’s weighing in on lighting, location ideas, or how to make your
day feel even more intentional.
You’ll also receive a 6-month check-in email from me to touch base and see
where you’re at in the planning process—just a little nudge to remind you I’m
in your corner.
timeline + wedding day questionnaire
Around 4 months out, you’ll want to start filling out your wedding day questionnaire. This is where all the details start coming together. At the 3-
month mark, we’ll dive into building your photo timeline. We’ll collaborate
through a shared Google Drive to keep things organized and stress-free. And
depending on how detailed your day is, we can hop on a call or even meet
for coffee if you’re local!
This part of the process is all about making sure your day flows smoothly, so
you can be fully present while I capture it all.
final planning call
One month out, we’ll hop on a final call to walk through your completed photo timeline together.
After that, we’ll go over your Pinterest board side-by-side. It’s important to me that I understand not just what you pinned, but why—what you’re drawn to, how it makes you feel, and how you hope that inspiration translates into your own day.
This part of the process is fully collaborative. The more I understand your vision ahead of time, the more intentionally I can photograph your day as it naturally unfolds.
wedding day prep
The week before your wedding, I’ll do a final venue walk-through—even if I’ve photographed there before. It’s important to me to get a fresh feel for the
space, scout lighting, and make sure everything is aligned with your vision. I’ll
also be prepping my gear, charging every battery, and double-checking that
my bridal emergency kit is packed and ready to go.
From this point forward, we’ll move all communication to text to keep things
simple and stress-free for you in those final days.
It's here - Your Wedding Day!
I’ll be there with multiple cameras in hand (yes—digital, film, and Polaroids!) to photograph the soul of your day, capturing your memories as they unfold. From the quiet, emotional moments to the joyful chaos, I’m there for it all.
My photography style is rooted in a documentary approach—meaning I’ll step in with gentle direction when needed, but never make your day feel like a photoshoot. I’ll lead you through locations, adjust timelines if needed, and even help family find their best ceremony spots. Whether we’re staying on schedule or pivoting in the moment, I’m there to keep things flowing smoothly and make sure you feel supported from beginning to end.
Always keeping the good vibes going, so you can stay present, soak it all in, and make beautiful memories in the places that mean the most.
Wedding Previews
Within 72 hours of your wedding, you’ll receive a full preview gallery—a little
snippet from every part of your day, ready to share with your friends and
family while the memories are still fresh.
Your full gallery!
Within 8–10 weeks of your wedding day, you’ll receive your full gallery—
complete with digital images, 35mm film scans, and your Polaroids. If you’re
interested in a custom album, this is when we’ll begin that process together.
And as a little something tangible to hold onto, I’ll also be mailing you your
original Polaroids from the day—because some memories are meant to live
off-screen.
all the resources
After booking, you’ll receive a confirmation email with a link to your custom
client portal. Inside, you’ll find two questionnaires—one to help me get to
know you both better, and one with all the details about your wedding day.
You’ll also get access to my 100+ page wedding day guidebook, plus a link to
start curating a Pinterest board (we’ll use that together later on!). I also love
to include a few extra resources and surprises to help make this season even
more fun and intentional.
Secure Your Date
Once you’ve looked over your customized investment guide and you’re ready to move forward, I’ll send over your private client portal. Inside, you’ll find everything you need—your contract and invoice, all in one place.
No matter what your final package looks like, all bookings require a $1500 retainer fee to officially secure your date. Once your contract is signed and your retainer is paid—your date is locked in, and we can start the fun part!
From here on out, I’m in your corner—ready to collaborate, dream, and plan every detail alongside you.
Bri was a dream to work with on our wedding day. We live out of town but it was still a breeze planning and working everything out for our special day. Bri was described as a “ghost” by some of our wedding guests meaning she was so discreet but let me tell you we got our sneak peaks and we are OBSESSED. I just can’t wait to see the rest of the gallery!!! Thank you again Bri for capturing us and of course helping us pose when we are the most photogenically challenged people 😂 Bri is THE BEST!

Bri was amazing! I told her the vibes I had in mind for our shoot and she delivered👏🏼 Our photos turned out so good, and we had so much fun shooting with her! Even though we hadn't met beforehand she made us feel so comfortable and it honestly felt like we were just hanging with a friend the whole time. 10/10 would recommend her!

It truly was an amazing experience working with Bri and the incredible team she assembled!!! From checking in before the wedding, to going above and beyond to make me and my husband feel confident and comfortable, she truly did it all and I can’t imagine having another photographer capture this incredible day. The pictures are something we will cherish forever and I love that she captured our personalities and the feel of our wedding. THANK YOU BRI!!!
