Welcome!
I’ve always expressed myself through visual art like drawing and painting but photography is where everything clicked into place. I began my career as a photojournalist, documenting real people and real moments for daily newspapers, and wedding photography became a natural extension of that work.
My approach is simple: I want to create images that feel true to you and make you feel seen. Images that reflect the love, connection, excitement, and emotion of your day—not stiff poses or reenactments. Every photograph should feel like a piece of your story, a one-of-a-kind heirloom that will be treasured for a lifetime.
When I’m not photographing weddings or teaching photography, you can find me spending time with my family, on my yoga mat, exploring the beautiful outdoors here in coastal New England, traveling somewhere new or dreaming up creative projects.
I can’t wait to meet you and hear about your wedding plans.
Xoxo,
Brenda

Your Engagement Session
ENGAGEMENT SESSIONS
Your engagement session is often your first professional photo experience together—it’s fun, relaxed, and a great way for us to get to know each other before the wedding.
Your session can take place somewhere meaningful, such as:
Where you met
The spot where you got engaged
Your favorite activity or place to spend time together
A restaurant or café that’s “your spot”
A beautiful beach at sunset
Engagement photos can be used for Save the Dates, displayed at your wedding, or shared with friends and family. Most of all, they capture your love in this unique moment of your story.
ENGAGEMENT SESSION
Included with all wedding collections:
Up to 1 hour of session time
Outfit change included
High-resolution digital images with personal use rights included
ENGAGEMENT SESSION TIPS
Bring a change of clothes for a variety of looks.
Choose colors that complement each other rather than match exactly.
Dress in clothing you feel confident, comfortable and YOU in.
Bring sentimental items or props if they feel meaningful.
Most importantly, be yourselves, relax, and enjoy the experience!
WHAT WE NEED TO KNOW TO PLAN YOUR COVERAGE
To help design the perfect photography plan for your wedding, I’ll ask about:
Your ceremony and reception locations
The size of your wedding party
Your timeline and important moments
Special family dynamics I should be aware of
Any must-have images
Getting to know you helps me tailor the photography style and coverage to fit your day perfectly.
“Brenda was incredible to work with!”
She photographed our engagement session and wedding day, and the images were absolutely stunning. Brenda captured our excitement, our love, and the magic of the day in a way that exceeded every expectation.
She made us feel relaxed, supported, and completely at ease. On the other side of our wedding, we now understand that choosing a skilled wedding photographer is truly one of the best investments you can make.
We are SO glad we booked Brenda!”

Every wedding is unique, but here’s a general outline of what the photography planning process looks like:

We’ll meet to talk about your day, review collections, and answer any questions. Once you’re ready, you’ll sign your contract and pay your retainer to officially reserve your date.
8–12 MONTHS BEFORE THE WEDDING
Schedule your engagement session. This helps you get comfortable in front of the camera and gives you beautiful images for Save the Dates.
1–2 MONTHS BEFORE THE WEDDING
We’ll create a detailed photography plan, including family groupings, special requests, and a timeline designed to keep your day running smoothly.
THE WEEK OF
I’ll check in to confirm details, timing, and anything else you need as we get close to the big day
