B4M, based in Redding, CA, is a wedding photography and media brand built around honest emotion, intentional storytelling, and imagery that feels cinematic, romantic, and true to life. Led by Dennis Mitchel, B4MONDAY captures weddings with a warm, editorial eye while keeping the experience relaxed, personal, and deeply meaningful.
From quiet getting-ready moments to emotional vows, golden-hour portraits, family connections, reception energy, and the small in-between details that often mean the most, every wedding is approached with care and intention. Our style blends natural documentary coverage with beautifully guided portraits, creating galleries that feel both authentic and elevated.
We serve couples who want more than just pretty photos. We focus on preserving the feeling of the day: the nerves, the laughter, the tears, the movement, the people, and the love that makes your story yours. Whether you are planning an intimate elopement, a courthouse wedding, a backyard celebration, or a full wedding day, B4MONDAY brings a calm presence, creative direction, and a thoughtful eye to every part of the experience.
Based in Northern California and available for travel, B4MONDAY offers wedding photography, engagement sessions, elopement coverage, and visual storytelling for couples who want timeless images with warmth, depth, and soul. Our goal is simple: to create photographs that feel like memories, not just poses.

- Jess CorralCo-Owner/ CEOJess brings a calm, heartfelt, and deeply intentional presence to every wedding day. As Dennis’s partner and part of the B4MONDAY team, she helps create an experience that feels grounded, supportive, and personal from start to finish. With a natural gift for holding space, noticing emotion, and helping people feel comfortable, Jess is often the quiet steady presence behind the scenes. She understands that weddings are not just about timelines and portraits. They are about connection, family, nerves, laughter, tenderness, and the sacred feeling of two people stepping into a new chapter together. Jess has a background rooted in love, mindfulness, and meaningful human connection, which makes her especially valuable on wedding days. Whether she is helping with details, supporting the couple, assisting with creative direction, or simply making sure the day flows with care, she brings warmth, patience, and heart to the experience. Together, Dennis and Jess approach weddings as more than a service. They see each celebration as a story worth honoring with presence, respect, and artistry.
- Dennis MCo-OwnerI’m Dennis Mitchel, the photographer behind B4MONDAY, a wedding photography and visual storytelling brand built around honest emotion, cinematic light, and the kind of images that still feel alive years later. My approach is a blend of guided editorial posing and real documentary storytelling. I believe wedding photography should feel elevated without feeling stiff, polished without feeling fake, and deeply personal without becoming overly posed. I’m always looking for the in-between moments: What I’m known for is creating images that feel warm, romantic, intentional, and true to life. I love soft natural light, dramatic architecture, golden-hour portraits, emotional candids, elegant detail styling, and cinematic reception coverage. My goal is not just to photograph what your wedding looked like, but to preserve what it felt like. Every couple is different, so I don’t treat weddings like a copy-and-paste timeline. I take time to understand what matters most to you: the people, the traditions, the details, the family dynamics, the energy, and the moments you never want to forget. Whether your day is intimate and simple or full of movement and celebration, I bring calm direction, clear communication, and a steady presence so you can stay present while I document everything with care. I’m also deeply committed to inclusivity. Love is love, and every couple deserves to feel safe, respected, celebrated, and beautifully represented. My work is rooted in connection, intention, and the belief that your story deserves to be documented with both artistry and honesty. When you work with me, you’re not just getting someone who shows up with a camera. You’re getting someone who cares about the full experience, from helping with timeline flow to finding the best light, calming nerves, directing portraits naturally, and preserving the moments you didn’t even realize were happening. At the end of the day, my job is simple: to create photographs that you will love for a lifetime.
