meet your Photographer
capturing your genuine moments as they are
Howdy! I’m Bri — a digital and film photographer with over 5 years of experience and 200+ weddings shot. I’m a western spirit, having lived in five states in the West. I’m deeply inspired by the West, minimalism, and the stories that shape who we are.
I am by nature an observer, endlessly curious about the people and places around me. Through digital and analog mediums, I have fallen in love and perfected the craft of freezing moments in time. You can find me most anywhere in the West with a coffee and film camera in hand, not too far from a good book.

When you choose a photographer, you deserve more than just beautiful images. You deserve an experience that exceeds every expectation. That’s exactly what I create for you.
I pride myself on being an observer by nature, the kid that noticed everything. I found that by harnessing that power, something that’s always come really naturally to me, I am able to couple it with technical photography skills to create images that are more than nice pictures. They are moments that are truly meaningful.
I began my photography journey on the island of Maui when I was eighteen and working a full-time coffee job. I spent any free moment shooting anything and anyone. Covid hit, paused the world, and flew back to Arizona to be with family. Through a friend of a friend, I heard about a girl whose wedding photographer never showed up to their day. When I heard about it, I immediately reached out to her. I had her bouquet remade and met them in the desert for bridal portraits.
It was from that bridal session in the Arizona desert that I went on to book by first ten weddings in 2021 after swearing up and down that I would never become a wedding photographer.
In 2022, I booked another 25 weddings, and I haven’t looked back since. Shooting upwards of 50 weddings a year, this has become the way in which I primarily tell stories, connect with my clients, and preserve moments to last a lifetime. Weddings have taught me the importance of searching for meaningful moments. This skill has gone far past weddings and ventured into family sessions, senior portraits, brand and lifestyle, and especially into film portraiture.
Among the many updates into my own brand, world, and experience, adding in analog photography through 35mm photography has revolutionized how I approach photography in it’s entirety. Slowing down, anticipating the meaningful moments even more, and adding a deep sense of nostalgia and warmth to my galleries. It has not only brought me immense joy, but it has been incredibly rewarding to watch my clients fall in love with film photography as much as I have.
One of the most universal experiences in this life is connection. That is why I deeply pride myself not only on creating meaningful connections with my clients, but capturing real feelings in a tangible way that can be felt for generations to come.
Over the past six years and through the art of observation, dedication to my craft, and the trust of my clients, I’ve learned that its so much more than coordinated outfits, ornate floral arrangements, and the current Pinterest trends. It’s real life, it’s real love, and it’s all about you.
I can’t wait to get to know you.
