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 offer wedding photography and super 8 films.

We had the full on Brittany Bear Photography experience and I can’t say enough good things! The photos and super 8 video are truly works of art. It is the perfect mix of editorial and candid photos. Britt is great at helping to pose and push you out of your comfort zone for the more editorial shots. Since we aren’t models, it took some getting used to but all I can say is to trust the process and the vision! Throughout the wedding day, we had time for those more posed shots, and otherwise, she captured unique moments happening around that felt so alive and true to the day. We also have a really unique wedding video thanks to the super 8 film that was shot. And for the full bridal experience, Britt’s boudoir add on is 100% worth it! I loved that Britt’s style wasn’t typical wedding photography, and we will forever cherish the way our big day was captured.

Hi loves! I’m Amanda, a San Diego based traveling photographer devoted to documenting romantic wedding moments and preserving the essence of the big day with imagery. I absolutely love having fun with my couples and getting them comfortable in being exactly who they are to capture in images! I have been a photographer for 10+ years and have fallen in love with being the person who showcases a couple’s love through creative imagery. I’ll be your biggest hype man, get you laughing with your partner and capture every emotional moment that should never be forgotten!

Amanda and KC are the REAL deal. We had the absolute pleasure of working with Amanda for several events, including our intimate wedding in France and our larger celebration in the Central Coast of California. From start to finish, Amanda was the calm within the storm. Our family members and other vendors raved about her for days after—she truly was the glue that held us all together! Amanda is exceptionally professional, timely, and communicative. We were absolutely blown away by Amanda’s shots. She has a fresh take on classic, timeless photos and was super responsive to our own vision. We look genuinely comfortable in our photos, reflecting the awesome connection we had with Amanda. Amanda and her partner KC also shot our larger California celebration as a team. They both worked seamlessly together, delivering the same level of professionalism and skill. Amanda and KC are so much fun that we actually forced them to put down their cameras and dance with us at the end of the night. I really can’t recommend Amanda enough for anyone in need of an event photographer. She and KC will exceed your expectations, just like they did for us.

Kim & Mike were an absolute dream to work with! They are so easy to get along with and have such creative ideas for what to capture/how to capture photos. We felt so comfortable with them and doing our photos before the ceremony eased a lot of nerves. During the ceremony they were hardly noticeable and yet managed to capture it perfectly! Sneak peaks were posted to Facebook quickly and we received all over our photos (nearly 1,000) in just a few weeks. Highly recommend!

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,500
  • Serves Novato, CA for additional fees

My parents don’t have professional photos of their wedding. It’s ironic being that I photograph weddings for a living. Long story short, my Grandfather hired a distant cousin as their wedding photographer, his customer service was beyond subpar and pricing was vague. He eventually went out of business and apparently took the photos down with him. It’s a sad story but it is something that fuels my mission as a wedding photographer. To give my clients a memorable experience from the first Zoom meeting to the delivery of their gallery and beyond.

We had the best experience working with Nick (and Mackenzie) on our big day. I cannot recommend Nick Cruz Photography enough! All of our photos are so beautiful and exceeded our (high) expectations. We could not have asked for better photos or a better photographer. Getting married during COVID meant a lot of last-minute changes in plans and Nick was so supportive and willing to work with us to make sure we captured all aspects of the day safely. And he is so personable - we had a total of 13 people at our wedding, so it was a very small group, all immediate family, but he fit right in! He was super organized and had a shot list to make sure we didn't miss any typical wedding photos. His website for photo delivery makes it so easy to view/download photos and he got us some sneak peaks super fast. Overall, we had such a great experience with Nick and plan to use him for all other big life events that require photography! (He also did our engagement - those photos were amazing too! He worked with my husband to pop out of the trees and capture the actual proposal.)

Hello there! I’m Amy. My roots are here in the PNW, (Edmonds, Washington to be exact) but I spent most of my life in Texas waiting for the day when I could move my family home to the northwest. I have 5 sons (yep, 5!) and have to pinch myself when I think about my amazing family and this career that has taken my husband and I all over the world. I value experience and relationships over material things, and work mostly with couples who are planning smaller weddings or elopements. After 12 years and 300+ weddings, I’ve learned that connection and authenticity are essential to who I am, and the way that I work.

There's a feeling you get when someone you love smiles, when they laugh, when they take your hand in theirs. Those feelings are what I seek to capture. I combine the physical beauty of a moment with candid emotions to create heart-warming images that bring you back into the moment all over again.

Audrey was a dream photographer to have at our wedding! In addition to being so personable and having such a wonderful personality, she's an extremely talented artist!! Her photos are absolutely stunning and she really captures the moment. Looking through my photos I feel the excitement of that day! She is so sweet and made everyone feel so comfortable taking photos that the time flew by. I also felt like she was everywhere capturing all our moments -- I don't know how she did it all! We also received a lot of compliments about Audrey and how wonderful she is. Would definitely love getting to work with Audrey again.

It was a small outdoor wedding. She captured some amazing photos and always did so with a smile. She has so many great ideas and made it so easy to pose. She was great to work with and would recommend her to anyone in search of a photographer from family photos, senior photos to weddings. Nevaeh is your photographer!

We loved working with Ruth - super easy, relaxed style which was perfect for us. We wanted to be comfortable and not notice a photographer since it can be awkward. Her journalistic approach was perfect for us and captured so much more then we could have imagined. I had a very hard time picking photos for my wedding album and prints that I basically printed every single photo. The lighting and angles were natural and she truly captured every moment. I felt like all the photos we received told the complete story of the day.

I’m Sabrina, an Austrian-South African photographer living in New York City. I shoot weddings, elopements and engagements — and as an avid traveler, I absolutely love shooting destinations. Raised between South Africa, Austria and Luxembourg, I spent long periods of my youth traveling the world with my mother. I grew up surrounded by the arts and chose photography as my primary creative outlet. I practice photography professionally , as well as continue to document the many people and places from my travels. I love to capture moments and tell stories in a captivating , creative and organic way.

We hired Sabrina to capture our wedding day, and I couldn't be happier with the results! From start to finish, Sabrina was professional, friendly, and attentive to every detail. She worked closely with us to understand our vision and preferences, and went above and beyond to make sure that we were happy with the final photos. On the day of the wedding, Sabrina arrived early and captured every moment, from my bridesmaids and I getting ready, to the ceremony & party, & everything in between. The candid photos are some of my absolute favorites! She has a keen eye for framing and lighting, and her photos truly captured the joy and romance of the day. Most importantly - she made us (especially my camera shy husband) feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera, and the final photos were absolutely beautiful. Overall, I would highly recommend Sabrina to anyone looking for a talented and dedicated wedding photographer. Her passion for her work shines through in every photo she takes. Thank you, Sabrina, for capturing our memories so beautifully!

Hi I'm Patty, your wedding photographer. I am based in West Michigan and spend over 50% of my season servicing Detroit & Chicago couples. Along with servicing the Michigan and Chicago market, I have slowly begun to expand my territory to include destination work with places like Texas, Virginia, Florida and Spain. I serve couples who understand that this season is one worth being celebrated and remembered. The couples who embrace their family and their people however that looks. Most importantly I serve those who see these photographs as an investment into their legacy.

Choosing Patty to be our photographer was the greatest decision we’ve ever made! From the moment we met her to receiving our wedding photos, Patty was INCREDIBLE. She made a wonderful effort to get to know us before our engagement shoot. Not only is Patty a phenomenal photographer, but she has also become such a sweet friend - going as far to lend me her Hulu password so we could be caught up on How I Met Your Father together. I felt like she understood our style and matched our energy wonderfully. During our engagement shoot in Saugatuck, Michigan, I was insistent we went to the beach to take some photos. Little did we know it would be a nearly mile hike in the heat of summer to get there. Despite sweating our butts off, Patty had a smile on her face the entire time and was incredibly professional. The photos were breathtaking and exceeded our expectations. During our wedding day Patty was there for every special moment, big and small. We didn’t worry once about the photos because we knew we were in wonderful hands. We had about 225 guests and both have big families, Patty was able to manage all of us during our family portraits! Patty is such a genuine person with a remarkable eye and talent. We can’t recommend Patty enough to be your wedding photographer!

We were really happy to work with Norbert, he was always responsive, flexible and very attentive to our questions. He was very professional and friendly to us at all times. Plus, he gave us some great recommendations around the area that we hadn't even heard of! We have never really had pictures taken of us before in a romantic setting by a professional before, that alone was pretty intimidating for us. Norbert made the entire photo experience a lot less intimidating for us to go through, the pictures came out perfect in the end! Overall, we had a great experience and will definitely recommend him to anyone marrying in the future in need of a photographer.

I love exploring the world! THAT is why I love capturing love stories from all parts of the earth. I was living in New Zealand for a few years when I met my husband, Tyler. He shares the same love of wild adventure as I do. Together we have taken roadies through NZ, Australia, Indonesia, West Papua, Thailand, and Papua New Guinea. We have been married for almost three years now and live in Denver together in a little apartment. You can find us flipping vans into campers, bargain hunting at the local thrift store, or literally anywhere in the mountains on the weekend.

Working with Lauren has been one of my favorite parts of the wedding industry. We have probably worked over 30 weddings together and I am continually impressed by her dependability, excellence of work, and constant level of joy and enthusiasm through each wedding day. I have seen her interact with a diverse array of couples and she treats each of them uniquely and with the utmost care. I can see that she genuinely loves each couple that she works with and this sets her apart. If you are looking for a teammate, friend and overall great personality to work with, stop looking elsewhere. Lauren is your girl!

I love telling wedding stories, first and foremost, through capturing moments. Your wedding is a one of a kind event from the location to your style and personalities, but it also includes a unique group of people that have come together to celebrate your union. On your wedding day I focus on capturing the love and laughter, the tears and joy, but also the energy of the party! When it's over I give you a gallery of images that will bring all those emotions back every time you pull them up on your computer, share them online, crack open your album, or walk past them on your wall.

When I think of Matt and MSW Photos, WOW comes to mind. They are incredibly creative and think outside of the norm. They take the time to get to know you and focus on delivering amazing photos you'll be thankful you have for years to come.

My earliest memories of photography are from when I attended weddings at 5 or 6 years old. I would photograph everyone at these weddings with a small, plastic, film camera and loved every moment. That joy of photography and capturing beauty and love has stayed with me ever since. I have a better camera now, but I still can't wait to capture your love.

Tom did a fantastic job with our engagement shoot. We couldn’t have asked for better. He made us feel super comfortable and was able to capture amazing shots without interrupting our special moment. He gave us so many gorgeous images that we were able to use for our announcements, save-the-dates, and wedding website. He truly went above and beyond.

Howdy! I'm Gwen. I am believer in love at first sight and that travel is the best teacher (experiencing new places makes my soul sing). I have been photographing weddings for over 13 years. From Iceland to Antarctica, Hawaii to Alaska, Shanghai to Scotland and frequently in Colorado my home-state, I've captured photos of incredible humans full of love. I quickly found my passion is documenting intimate weddings and elopements; those full of intention and a little untraditional. I support ALL clients and their right to marry who and how they choose.

Gwen is absolutely incredible. As our wedding photographer, she made us feel completely comfortable. This was incredibly important to me (the bride) because I always feel awkward getting my picture taken. She put me at ease and made me feel confident in front of the camera-something I have never experienced before. She was able to capture beautiful moments without us feeling posed. She flew to Colorado and drove for hours to get to our elopement site. She was punctual, and showed up with so much enthusiasm and excitement for our big day. She is a dream to be around-exactly the type of person you want around on your wedding day. It's not every day you find professionals with true heart and talent behind every inch of their work. Gwen was amazing to work with-she captured every beautiful moment of our day and turned our photos into masterpieces that we will cherish forever. Thank you Gwen!!!

Hi, I'm Amanda Proudfit. I love the outdoors in all seasons, my dog, filling up disposable film cameras, and a good doughnut every now and then. I am a Colorado & California based wedding photographer available to shoot throughout the US and worldwide. I am so honored when couples choose to have me document their wedding day. I enjoy every aspect of it- all the love, family & friends coming together, traditions, food, and endless good times. Creating timeless memories of these moments is so fulfilling to me and I'd love to help you tell your story.

Amanda is such an amazing photographer. Our wedding photos are beautiful, bright, and filled with so much happiness. She was very easy to work with, from the beginning (booking our date) to the end (delivering our photos, with an easy download link), not to mention her website is beautiful! Amanda took both our engagement photos and our wedding photos. She made taking all of our (thousands of) photos feel so easy. While taking our engagements she would ask my husband and I cute questions, or say quirky things that would just bring out our smiles, and I never felt more comfortable getting my picture taken. She has an eye for beautiful shots. We got married at a gorgeous lake, with a mountain backdrop, and I figured we wouldn't be able to capture the beauty of all of it. She proved me wrong and did it over and over again! Amanda is an amazing person, artist, and professional! WE COULDN'T BE HAPPIER WITH OUR PHOTOS!!

Hi I'm Christian! I am a wife, and mother of four who loves any adventure with a passport involved. I am a huge travel junky who loves exploring new places, food, and culture. I fell in love with photography while traveling the world as a child. Years later, I tell the unqiue love stories of stylish, wanderlust couples, who are madly in love. I absolutely love photographing weddings and the relationships I build with the couples I serve. On wedding days you can catch me with two cameras on each hip making sure that every detail is captured.

I had the wonderful opportunity of working with Christian Nwuso Photography as her makeup artist for a client project. As a photographer, Christian proved her ability to be an asset to any client or project that she has worked on. Christian is diligent and extremely committed to her work. Her professionalism and organizational skills became apparent when we worked together due to an extremely tight schedule for the day. I witnessed how she was able to smooth out the “kinks” when scheduling delays occurred which allowed the day to run in a more efficient manner. Christian delivered proactive solutions in a highly stressful situation, which resulted in a positive response and work environment. Christian has demonstrated reliability, trustworthiness and has an excellent work ethic and passion for photography. I am constantly impressed with her dedication to her craft as well as her clients. I have witnessed her go above and beyond for them. In addition to these great qualities, Christian has displayed great enthusiasm and initiative; she has excellent people’s skills and has a very friendly and outgoing personality. I am sure that she will be a highly talented asset to any prospective client. Christian has an abundance of positive qualities and I respect her greatly. I felt honored to be asked to provide this recommendation and hope that the information that I provided helps to understand what an outstanding professional Christian Nwuso really is.

I’m Erin Wiese, a Southern California/Texas based photographer who’s obsessed with storytelling for the wildly in love and the adventurous at heart. Photography has been my means of expression since the age of sixteen when I received my first camera. Most days you can find me taking pictures of humans in love, going on walks during golden hour, exploring new places, listening to true crime podcasts, and petting alllllll the dogs. I'm here to make you feel loved, seen, laugh + have a good freaking time. I can’t wait to meet you and hear your story!

We absolutely loved working with Erin! We was responsive and on top of things from the beginning. She had such a great attitude and energy, which really eased a lot of our uncomfortable-ness of being in front of a camera. For our engagement photos, she spent a lot of time scouting out the best locations at our venue to ensure we got some really beautiful photos. Which of course we did! For the wedding, she made sure to get every single specific photo I told her was important to me. Even ones I had forgotten about in the moment. I was truly grateful for how patient she was the day of and how organized she was. We’ve only gotten our sneak peek photos but so far but they are incredible! She is so talented and has such a beautiful eye for photography! Book Erin!

Since 2008, I’ve found myself as a professional photographer who strives to capture life, in all of its twists + turns, candidly. In addition to taking pictures, I am: the owner of The Made Fest, a handmade + vintage festival; in love with my husband; a co-founder of Smile Politely, a Champaign-Urbana local culture magazine and The Pygmalion Festival; a master gardener; an epicurean; and a mother. I am a feminist and a LGBTIAQ ally.

Awarded Best of Zola
TLDR: Justine is the best and her photos not only turned out as beautiful pieces of art, but also perfectly captured our personalities and the love and spirit of the day. Full version: Your wedding day really does fly by in a flash, but if you're lucky you have a photographer like Justine to help you remember it. Justine is a supremely talented photographer with an artist's eye and an appreciation for candid moments. Throughout the process, she showed a genuine desire to know who we were as people, and what we wanted from our photos. She is kind and reliable, puts everyone she meets at ease, and is a joy to work with. Our photos turned out ridiculously beautiful, and we'll look back happily at them for years.
