Brandi exceeded my expectations and more! I am not from the U.P, so I was asking her a ton of questions
We were able to include our two dogs in our engagement photos and she did a fantastic job with them! Such a laid back and comfortable experience for all of us, dogs included! I could not have asked for a better person to photograph us!"
and she gladly answered any questions I had! Without her, I seriously wouldn’t have been able to have my wedding day be as smooth and beautiful as it was! She is super accommodating, friendly, and the next day I got back SO MANY sneak peeks. I HIGHLY recommend hiring Brandi to be your photographer and working with her! She is seriously the best!

"Brandi is absolutely wonderful. She is extremely communicative, flexible and so sweet.
Being an event planner it is wonderful to work with someone who cares so much about what is most important to her clients and will work within the day to try to get them every shot they are hoping for. She truly is so kind and fun to work with…. Would recommend her 10/10 to anyone looking for a photographer."

I love to meet all of my couples before confirming your wedding date. I know.. You are probably thinking, great, another step. But, this is a necessary part of the process for both of us. We need to know if we are a good fit to work together seamlessly. Our meeting doesn’t have to be extravagant. I fully understand how busy life is! We can set up a simple phone call or zoom call on a date and time that works best for you.

Brandi was absolutely incredible to work with. Not only was she incredibly helpful during the planning process, but she brought us so much peace on our day.
I have been telling all of my friends and family if they need a photographer she is your girl! I am in awe at our wedding pictures. They are absolutely gorgeous! She made sure our day ran smoothly! I seriously cannot thank her enough! I cannot wait to work with her in the future."
She is absolutely amazing and so fun to work with! And coordinated our honeymoon through Blue Diamond Travel Agency. We are SO thankful we chose her to capture our wedding.

Brandi did a fabulous job with our elopement. We felt so comfortable and had a wonderful afternoon exploring the venue for a variety of beautiful photos.

Our sneak peeks were a wonderful way to share with family who weren’t in attendance, and the rest of the photos were ready even sooner than expected. We absolutely adore our wedding photos and will cherish them forever

This answer will vary depending on the photographer, but in my eyes, if you have 25 - 50 guests, this is considered an intimate wedding. Anything under 25 guests is an elopement.

Only if you want to! Your elopement day is just that, YOURS. We will only do things you two want to do. We can look at finding easily accessible locations, with minimal hiking if that is what you like.

My calendar is always open for the following year, but it doesn't mean you have to book me that far in advance. I would say six months is ideal, but trust me, reach out if you know you want to work together.

During our time together, I tend to do about 50% directing + posed shots, while the rest will be unposed candid moments.
