I'm Brianna. Pennsylvania based wedding + portrait photographer. My hair is typically in a messy bun, I usually have a baby on my hip, and I never say no to cake. I want photographs to feel as good as they look, and my overly sentimental, married, momma heart knows the weight of soulful photographs all too well.

I have been holding onto this since like…February yall. I CAN’T BELIEVE IT because it’s truly one of my most proud sessions I’ve photographed. It’s just everything I want to say with family photography, with my favorite medium, a sweet family, in their home…it’s everything for me! I’ve had the pleasure of photographing in homes […]

On a wedding day, the bride & groom are obviously my people. BUT. As a girl….as a photographer spending lots of time with the bride…I naturally meet her gal pal bridesmaids and often times end up befriending them, too! A lot of my brides are actually bridesmaids of my OTHER brides! So it’s kind of […]

Since I have photographed couples & weddings for years now….couples are my safe zone-could-do-this-with-a-blindfold-on-kinda thang! Now that I have moved into photographing families, it’s a skill that has served me well because PARENTS NEVER HAVE PHOTOS TOGETHER.

These two are so so loved. The guests at weddings are so telling. They reveal so much about the couple that I couldn’t observe or experience at an engagement session and I really love this aspect of weddings! Their families were such high caliber humans, the speeches were sweet & witty, and all of their […]

I was looking forward to this family session so. stinkin. much. Because the momma is someone I *really* admire. She is so intentional with her time (it seems) and what she puts her efforts into. She loves her family so well, she’s clearly head over heels for her husband still, she’s a country girl, she has […]
