Brittany Bear Photography

  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,900
  • Serves Gunpowder, MD
  • Offer

I mix editorial and documentary style photography for a wedding gallery that feels nostalgic and luxurious. I am here to make the never-shot-before-couple look like they belong in a magazine spread and I will capture candid, living, details and moments on your wedding day that will bring you back to that first touch time and time again. We are a husband and wife team that offers wedding photography and super 8 films. We also have a team of associate photographers for those on a budget.

I chose not to have a videographer because I knew the quality and experience that Brittany and her husband would give us. And she went above and beyond our expectations. I still to this day look at my photos daily and am in awe of them. She captured every moment of the day beautifully and I couldn’t be more grateful to her. She continues to be a part of my life and took our maternity photos. Brittany is not only involved with our biggest life events & capturing those moments but she made our experience so personal before, during, and after. I continue to have contact with Brittany and I love the relationship we were able to build over the years. Her prices are always fair for the quality, personally I think she could charge more because of how amazing her work is. But she’s fair and understands the expenses of life. I can’t wait to continue to work with Brittany and love to see all her work.

I'm William, a dedicated and passionate photographer/videographer based in Washington, DC. My love of photography was born out of my love of travel. While exploring other countries and cultures, I was using my phone to document the people that I met and the places that I have been. This led me to buy my first professional-level camera; it has been with me ever since. I consider my photography style to be timeless. When I'm not behind the lens, you'll find me at my local movie theater or spending quality time with my family and friends.

Geraldine was tremendous throughout the proposal planning process. She struck the perfect balance of listening to what I wanted while making recommendations and guiding me through the various considerations. I had to push my proposal out a few days due to unforeseen circumstances. Geraldine helped me minimize costs associated with the original plan and helped me put together a new one very quickly in a new location. She reached out to venues and photographers on my behalf and helped me think about the logistics of the day. Her guidance was worth every penny and I highly recommend her for your event planning needs.

Amaka and her team took over like we wanted and literally covered everything. The best part was how they helped us save tons of money on our wedding. Don't be hesitant in booking. Book them with confidence and I promise you will not be disappointed. Everything about your wedding will scream luxury and will be well organized. The price you pay is well worth it Somehow they found a way to even get my husband involved in the planning process because Amaka made it a fun process. She also gave us a planning book to help keep track and our own personalized google sheet that literally had everything including our guest list and how everyone would be seated. Amaka was always available when needed and if she wasn't, she delegated someone else. My husband and I loved attending vendor visits with her and she would always offer to treat us to lunch/dinner whenever we had appts. They went ABOVE and BEYOND to make sure the wedding was blissful. I recommended her to a friend who has a destination wedding next year and they are already in love. A planning company that knows what they're doing, very honest with you rather than telling you what you want to hear and extremely resourceful. We also got to save on decor because they provided rentals since we booked the full service planning and Amaka with giving us tips on how to save on decor. We wanted them to actually do the decor :-( but they couldn't at that time and was honest about it. However, I am excited about ariscreationz doing the decor for my friend's wedding.

Veronica was patient and so helpful throughout our wedding planning process. I am someone who had no idea what she wanted for her wedding. Veronica took me to many different types of venues and helped me envision multiple different types of wedding to help me narrow down exactly how I wanted our special day to look. We partnered with Veronica as our full service planner and she did full service, and then some.

I am an event planner by trade, and the only thing I did not want for my wedding was to work. I did not want to plan it myself, or worry about a single detail day of. We interviewed so many planners, and Kolena stood out among the crowd. She is organized, creative, bright, and incredibly professional as well as friendly and relatable. On the day of our wedding, Kolena handled all of the set up, coordination, and tear down without bothering my husband or I with anything. She managed family, vendors, timelines, and all the day of fires with precision and grace. And at the end of the night, when I got to my room and the decor was boxed, labeled, flowers were in water, and nothing was left to be done, I actually shed a tear. Hiring Kolena was, aside from choosing my husband, the best decision I made for my wedding. You can’t put a price on ease of mind and no stress on your wedding day.

I cannot sing Emma’s praises enough!!! We hired Emma as a month-of coordinator and are fully convinced she is the sole reason our wedding went off without a hitch! We had over 200 people and our ceremony was at a different location from our reception—no small undertaking—and from the moment we started working together, we knew our wedding was in good hands. Emma is extremely organized and has the perfect demeanor for this type of work. When I was actively pulling my hair out with stress (and a venue that was less than forthcoming about a conflict with our event space), Emma stepped up and made sure everything went smoothly, all while remaining calm, cool and collected. Emma was SO easy to work with and is a pleasure to be around. She also has a great inventory of items to bolster your décor—we ended up renting a card box and table numbers from her that she printed and designed with our names on it! She helped us hone our vision and refine our timeline, all while making sure everything was finalized to our liking! She put out every fire that popped up and truly felt like our wedding day guardian angel. Do yourself a favor and book Simply Grater Events!!!
