This is the second time we have hired beetwosweet. When we set out to plan our belated wedding reception after a COVID wedding, Brittany immediately came to mind again. Every event Brittany has shot for us has been better for her presence even before we got to see the photos. From the outset, Brittany’s preparation process is so thorough that she was able to spot an opportunity to pivot locations on the fly to take advantage of good weather (or memorialize the commotion of fire trucks outside the venue). Furthermore, for family formals, Brittany is adept at wrangling large (and troublesome) groups into memorable photos. Most importantly, Brittany’s eye has resulted in pictures in which we look incredible, but which also captured our goofiness, our delight, and our love.
Brittany (of Bee Two Sweet) has been my dream wedding photographer for over ten years! Her work is extraordinary and I have always loved her eye and the way she sees the world!
Well, the day arrived when I had a wedding to plan. Brittany was the first person/vendor I reached out to to schedule. (We scheduled an engagement shoot as well as the wedding).
The engagement shoot was absolutely magical. Brittany helped us choose a gorgeous location and her communication skills are unmatched. The engagement shoot was so fun and really set the tone for the months leading up to the wedding!
Not only is her work extraordinary (and the other photographers at bee two sweet are as well. Jorge our second photographer on the day. He was wonderful!)- not only is her work extraordinary, but she is so helpful with weddings in general.
She has years of experience in the wedding industry and shares her wealth of knowledge and expertise generously.
My wedding was exactly what I wanted it to be- and that could not have happened without Brittany.
Highly highly recommend. ❤️
Brittany is an artist! She was recommended to us by another photographer who was already booked for our wedding date, and from our first call with her we could tell she would be easy to work with and could help us capture our special day. We opted to do an engagement shoot with her and we were blown away with the quality and creativity of her shooting style. She made us feel at ease throughout the process and ensured that we got the pictures we wanted and the ones we didn’t know we needed. Her whole team was a blast to work with and made our wedding day that much more special. They all felt like family by the end of the night and we wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again!
Brittany is an absolute star. We worked with her for both our engagement photoshoot and our wedding. Her entire team is a delight to work with. She hits the right balance of being efficient and focused while also being pleasant, friendly and fun. She has an artistic eye that is rare. If you want unique, powerful, colorful and romantic photos that stand out, we highly recommend Bee Two Sweet. Even though we have only received our sneak peak photos so far (we just got married less than three weeks ago), our wedding guests have already said that she is the best wedding photographer they have ever seen. We agree! We could not recommend her enough and it is no surprise that she has received numerous accolades. Thank you for everything Brittany!!
Hiring Brittany was truly one of the best decisions we made when wedding planning. She photographed two events for us: an intimate, outdoor micro wedding filled with teary moments and then an indoor, raucous wedding reception that delicately combined two cultures and languages a few months later. She captured the spirit of both days with truly gorgeous images and attention to the smallest details. I was even *less* stressed the second time around because I was so certain that Brittany's creativity, flexibility, organization, and optimism would mean that we could focus on enjoying the day and not trying to aim for certain shots. She is truly a gem and we are so grateful to have worked with her.
Brittany Dilberto is not your average Lands End catalogue wedding photographer (although, if that's your thing - she could totally do it!) When my husband and I first saw her photos, we thought - "Wow! All of these people actually look like real people." All we wanted for our wedding was all the magic realness of our friends, family, and us was captured. Brittany did that tenfold. She has a way of capturing candids that is so strikingly beautiful, you will be blown away to see you and your loved ones so well captured. If I could sum up Brittany's photography style in a sentence it would be - "I feel seen." Of course, she does an incredible job with all of the standard wedding portrait photos, but if you let her, she'll have some real fun with unique photo opportunities with you and whoever your partner is on the day.
Beyond her talent, she was extremely warm, fun, and organized. She provided so much guidance to us on timeline and structure. She rolls with an equally awesome team, and a whole lot of equipment that she seems to seamlessly employ in and around all of your wedding settings. She made my husband and I feel extremely comfortable and frankly, as someone who is not a big photos person, I surprised myself and wound having a really fun time working with her. We only wanted warm, good vibes on our wedding day and Brittany and her team were all of that and more.
So many of my married friends are extremely jealous at how amazing our wedding photos turned out. Do yourself a favor - be the envy of your friend group too and hire Bee Two Sweet.
We love Brittany! Finding a photographer we loved was one of the most important things for me for our wedding and I wanted someone whose photography could capture the candid moments of our special day and turn them into works of art. We loved working with Brittany from the very first Zoom call and through engagement photos and to our wedding day, she was above and beyond what we could have ever asked for!
Brittany and Johnny make an amazing team that have an eye for the beautiful unscripted natural moments of a wedding day. We are obsessed with all our wedding photos they now are hung all over our house and remind us of so many beautiful moments of such an incredible day! For two people who are not super comfortable being in the spotlight and in front of a camera, they made us feel at ease! We highly recommend Bee Two Sweet!
If you want unbelievable photographs that truly capture your entire wedding day, you must work with Bee Two Sweet. From the early planning stages to the last hour of your wedding g reception; from the first dance to taking your heels off at the end and dancing in your bare feet, they will be there and catch every single moment. Things you didn’t even know you needed to see: the way the crowd looked at my husband and I as we said our vows, the moment my dad saw me for the first time, the way my son laughed during the ceremony. Not only are the photos gorgeous and utterly UNREAL with how great they look, they are also so authentic and genuinely capture the emotions and feelings on your day. It’s a real gift!
Brittany is so easy to work with, super responsive, very very knowledgeable about the entire wedding space and can talk with your about anything! I will
Recommend these artists to absolutely anyone.
Brittany was incredible- she helped us plan our day and make us feel relaxed and excited about the schedule. She was also such a fun presence as we got ready and took incredible photos capturing friends and family as they got ready. She was super communicative and responsive to what we wanted to prioritize. She went above and beyond for everything we did!
Britt and Johnny are incredible. We come from two families of photographers, so we were really, really selective. The photos turned out better than we could have hoped–they're creative and intimate and capture the feel we were going for. Seriously, the photos are just flat out stunning.
But maybe equal to the photos, how the two of them made us feel in the months and weeks...and hours before the ceremony was essential. On planning, Britt was essential to help us balance our time and get the look and feel of our ceremony right. On the day, all the moments that would otherwise have been incredibly stressful were light and fun because of Britt and Johnny's presence. We were also really thankful we decided to do an engagement shoot with her so we'd all feel comfy and creative working together.
Separate from that, the service is impeccable. We got our photos quickly and in a format that's easy to use and share. The highlight slideshow is an amazing touch and really brought us back to the day. The only hard part is figuring out which ones to get printed!
We cannot recommend Bee Two Sweet enough. Working with them was easily the best decision we made.
We hired Bee Two Sweet to take our wedding and engagement photos and it has honestly been one of our best decisions in planning our wedding so far! Brittany is incredibly easy to work with and had great ideas to help us get our engagement session planned. We got our engagement photos back super fast and they are legitimately incredible - so much more than we ever could have hoped for! We cannot wait for her to shoot our wedding and help us capture even more memories.
Book them! You will not regret it!
My wife and I got married in June 2022 inside Luray Caverns. We met Brittany and Johnny at a wedding expo and immediately clicked with them. Their portfolio captures so many fun and romantic moments from other couples, and we knew we wanted them to capture our special day. They took the time to get to know us and our story, and they learned what we were looking for in our wedding photos and had a vision before we went into the cave. They helped us create a draft schedule for our wedding day and walked us through what to expect. It was clear that they’re super knowledgeable about which moments will be remembered most (and they helped keep our family formal photo lineup streamlined). For such an unusual environment (photographing underground), they were versatile and creative. On our wedding day, they helped keep us at ease with their collaboration and energy, especially when we were camera shy or feeling jitters about the timing of everything. They captured so many incredible moments – the bigger ones, and the fun candid moments that made the day feel truly special. Bee Two Sweet did an amazing job, and we loved working with them!
here is no way to put into words how absolutely amazing of a job Brittany and Johnny did with our engagement and wedding photos and I write for a living! They are two of the kindest, most generous, most professional and passionate people ever and their love for what they do just radiates off of them.
They make everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera, they are collaborative, and they are so FUN! Their joy and humor allowed my husband and I to loosen up, feel beautiful, and take some of the most gorgeous photos I have ever seen.
I cannot say enough good about Bee Two Sweet, they are truly the best and if you don't hire them for your wedding, engagement, elopement, whatever, you are truly missing out BIG TIME!
Best decision ever! Brittany & Johnny are absolute geniuses. Their attention to detail and lighting created perfection. We have only seen a few of the hundreds (thousands?) of images they took on our wedding day, but they captured the excitement, beauty, and emotion of the day perfectly. Even our wedding guests commented on their attention to detail and professionalism. 1000% would recommend Bee Two Sweet for your wedding!
Bee Two Sweet was the best choice for our wedding photography! Brittany and Johnny are gems and incredibly talented. The photos turned out perfect and we had a difficult time choosing the ones we wanted for our album - there were many good options! Our wedding date got rescheduled due to the pandemic, and they were very kind and understanding about the change. We are not the most comfortable in front of the camera and they made us feel relaxed and calm the day-of. Brittany greatly helped us think through our ceremony logistics and had so many amazing ideas to make everything better. Both Brittany and Johnny are fun to be around and there were a lot of laughs! We recommend them to anyone getting married in the future.
Bee Two Sweet was a huge part of what made our wedding an absolutely incredible, meaningful, and memorable day! Brittany was amazing through the entire process of planning and executing our wedding day. From our initial interview with her, my husband and I knew immediately that we wanted to work with Brittany. Besides her gorgeous portfolio that tells stories through imagery in such stunning ways, we loved her warm energy, her easy laugh, and all the ideas she had for how to make our celebration run smoothly and represent "us"!
We loved meeting Brittany's husband Johnny (who also served as her 2nd photographer) on our wedding day, and getting a chance to work with them both all day. Our family and friends kept commenting about how amazing they both were - especially at wrangling our big families during the portrait hour. Brittany somehow managed to get through a family shot list including three photos with more than 25 family members in under 30 minutes! We can't wait to see the imagery that Bee Two Sweet captured for us and re-live the memories through the photos for years to come.
Brittany and her team were incredible to work with. She is available and excited to help from planning the timeline to discussing the shot list and determining how and where the best pictures can be taken. Her eye for detail and excitement to get the best shot were palpable in both planning and as soon as we met in person. Brittany, from the morning prep shots to the final sparkler send off was there to capture the day at it's most beautiful, and from the quality of the shots I've received I can't imagine having anyone else there to capture our wedding. Since receiving our previews- in world record time I might add, I've heared nothing but the highest praise for her incredible work. Her talent speaks for itself, but if helps you decide, I will too! I can't recommend her and her company enough!
Ok, so other than marrying my spouse, BeeTwoSweet was the best decision I've made (well we, technically!). The wedding world was so intimidating for me, but meeting Brittany and Johnny felt right, and I felt confident in their ability to capture our vision.
Holy cow though, I had no idea. Along with their assistant, Hannah, Brittany and Johnny hit it out of the world. My husband and I joke that we are not photogenic, especially when we're in the same photo, but I felt like an absolute movie star that day. Brittany chatted with me multiple times in the months prior to get the flow and construct my timeline. She also didn't ditch me when, a month before the ceremony, I told her we were going to squeeze a Korean Paebaek ceremony in during cocktail hour. Instead, she got to work on making the timeline flow and everything go without a hitch.
Never once did I feel artificially posed or a moment forced. They all flowed so naturally and the photos reflect that. It's hard to describe, but the end product was exactly how we felt that day: like this was one of the best days of our lives and excited for what comes next.
Thank you Brittany, Johnny, and Hannah from the bottom of our hearts for making us look so good on such a magical, epic day!
Words cannot possibly describe how amazing Brittany and Johnny are. They made us feel comfortable being in front of the camera - which is not easy to do. We initially booked them before COVID hit and they actually reached out to us regarding postponing the wedding, which we really appreciated because we knew that they were taking everyone's safety seriously. When COVID shut everything down at the beginning, they also did a great COVID-friendly photo shoot in their backyard for couples who had to postpone, which was so thoughtful and creative. In addition to photographing our wedding, they also did a session with us out in Shenandoah National Park where we were supposed to get sunset photos and star photos. Well we happened to be out there when the smoke from the California wildfires completely clouded out the sky, so Brittany and Johnny came out to Shenandoah a second time to make up those sessions we missed. Brittany was great to work with for wedding planning - she sat down with us to iron out schedule for the day, and arranged multiple phone calls to discuss details. Johnny was great working with family for formal portraits at the wedding, and actually ended up keeping the DJ on schedule. They have incredible attention to detail, are patient and easy to work with, and make being photographed fun - and they're just generally wonderful people. We had a multitude of guests approach us after the wedding to complement our photographers and say they understood why we loved Brittany and Johnny so much. We would easily rate them 10/5 stars, they are worth every penny. You would be doing yourself a disservice by even looking at any other photographers. Brittany and Johnny, we cannot thank you enough for how much we have loved working with you.
From the moment Brittany and I spoke, I thought it had felt like we had know each other for years. She’s easy to talk to, professional and delivered the most outstanding photos ! Brittany had also helped me plan a timeline and assisted with wedding details for our big day. She was an expert with the local area. Her and Johnny delivered their expertise and made for a small diverse wedding day shoot! She’s an LGBTQ alliance photographer, professional, fun to work with. Brittany brought our vision of Adventure photos meets/ Adventure wedding to life. From gorgeous background of the National Park we had our wedding in,…To the small cabin and family time spent they spent every moment they had with us capturing the perfect and most intimate memories made our day so incredible. She gave her all from sun up to sundown with us! She captured memories, moments, we don’t have a single “photo” we have perfect memories, intimate moments and prefect moments that were caught in still frame. BeeToo Sweet was more than a photographer for us were a part of our family for a day. All of us actually didn’t bring a single phone to the wedding because, we had the best time and trusted in their expertise. I would absolutely recommend them for your wedding !
Brittany did an absolutely amazing job. Her photos are stunning and she captured our special day in such a unique yet timeless way. I am over the moon with the results! She was quick to respond to our inquiries, her prices are an excellent value for the quality of her work and she was so flexible with our timeline and the bumps we encountered throughout the evening. She is really easy to talk to and made us super comfortable while she photographed us (which was really important to me).
I really couldn't recommend her more and would definitely hire her again for future events.
Brittany was incredible to work with, from the planning stage all the way to execution and thereafter. I had a vague idea of how I wanted to propose, and with Brittany's knowledge of the area and expertise we created the perfect plan. When it came time, my now fiancé was none the wiser to Brittany there capturing the moment. We then had a group of friends waiting to surprise her, and Brittany was easily able to take control and capture some wonderful group pictures plus plenty of candids as well.
Later that day we received 20 or so "Sneak Peak" pictures, which was perfect for sharing online not too soon after. We got the rest later that week, and the quality was outstanding. They're conveniently shared through a webpage made personally for you, that only you and whoever you choose have access to. This was great to send to relatives so that they could view the images, and download/buy prints if they wanted.
And again, the quality of the pictures is worth every penny. All in all, we were so happy to work with Brittany and we would highly recommend her to anyone for a special occasion that they want documented!
I can't say enough how amazing Brittany and Johnny are! We were lucky to have them take both engagement photos as well as for our elopement (after COVID changed up our plans for a big wedding). While we picked a classic DC spot - the Lincoln Memorial - for our engagement photos, Brittany has the vision and creativity to create the photos that no one else has. It was totally worth the very early wakeup to catch the sunrise! And they captured the joy, and all of the other emotions of our wedding day just perfectly - along with some pretty amazing photos at the Franciscan Monastery Gardens. We couldn't be more thrilled with the photos, and how easy and fun Brittany and Johnny are to work with - and can't wait to have them photograph our larger celebration later this year!
My husband and I had a private courthouse ceremony during pandemic-times. Brittany was so great about helping us think through options for a socially distant ceremony and portrait session, setting up to grab candids coming out of the courthouse, and spending a couple hours with us playing in the park and creating beautiful photos to share with our family and friends who couldn't be with us. We had a blast just hanging out together in the park and enjoying the first two hours of our marriage, and came away with photos that we will treasure forever. Brittany is fun, supportive, and incredibly skilled. She made our day all the more special.
We worked with Brittany for our engagement photos and we had a great time. She was respectful, engaging, and really helped us feel comfortable and get some excellent shots. We loved working with her so much we are having Bee Two Sweet do our wedding photography also! Can't wait to work them again!
The stars truly aligned for us when we found out Johnny was free to shoot our fall wedding. He and Brittany were the photographers for my brothers wedding and truly blew it out of the park with their unreal shots. Their organized and honest communication from the very beginning was so appreciated and they helped us every step of the way. We are forever grateful for Johnny’s calm, artistic and fun vibe. He is a TRUE MASTER of the candid shot. He was so easy to work with and politely suggested specific shots while also going nearly unnoticed. My husband and I were in tears when we saw our wedding album. Our love and the magic of our wedding weekend radiates from the photos. I could not recommend the @beetwosweet team enough to shoot your special day. They truly are a genuine, kind, incredibly talented and dynamic couple. When your wedding is finished, it is such a precious gift to look back and re-live the beauty of it through the photos. We can’t begin to thank Johnny enough for allowing us to fully embrace the present moment of our wedding day while he worked diligently to create the digital memories for a lifetime.
A dream come true! We were so lucky to find Brittany. The photos she took of our elopement are breathtaking and have been instrumental as we share the news with loved ones! Everyone is in awe of the photos. But not only this, Brittany is joyful presence. She was the only person to witness our elopement and we worried it would feel awkward, and we were proven wrong! She helped make our day fun and all about us. We want to be friends with her IRL! Anyways, please hire Bee Two Sweet-- you will not regret it!
Brittany and Johnny are absolutely AMAZING! We cannot express how blown away we were by our wedding portraits!
First, I want to commend them on being so generous as to have a such an amazing and thoughtful "backup plan" after not being able to shoot our wedding. We were deeply touched that they still were able to give us some of the most amazing photos ever.
Second, Brittany's level of organization and planning was absolutely on POINT! As a super type A person myself, I can honestly say that I know she would have had a level of structure and order that I would have been ecstatic to see play out.
Third, the level of creativity and thoughtfulness that went into every pose and angle was a sign of such dedication to us as well as their craft. We respect and appreciate that!
Fourth, the energy was off the chain. We vibed so well with them, that even when the sun was setting and it was getting so cold, we toughened it out because we knew that the photos would be worth it (and they absolutely were)!
Fifth, the level of attention to detail and direction was amazing. We were never confused or waiting idly for instructions or guidance. They came with a vision and had a plan and were able to direct us accordingly. If something looked awkward or bad, they would let us know and fix us, or tell us what to do.
Overall, I could literally go on and on about how great Brittany and Johnny are, but it wouldn't even do the justice. All this to say, we HIGHLY recommended BeeTwoSweet for some absolutely SWEET pics!
Choosing BeeTwoSweet was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the first phone conversation to the engagement session, Brittany put us at ease with her professionalism and attention to detail.
I have never liked having my picture taken and was nervous for our engagement session, but Brittany and Johnny made us feel like we were having a fun photoshoot with old friends. They allowed us to shine as a couple with minimal, but expert direction.
Their creativity knows no bounds as they can turn the most ordinary settings into something magical.
During the uncertainty of the Covid-19 Pandemic, Brittany continued to rise above and beyond to provide us with photos from our seven person ceremony. While we were unable to celebrate our wedding day in the way we had planned, BeeTwoSweet provided us with the incredible opportunity to share the joy and excitement of our wedding with family and friends far away.
We love them for the unexpected and candid moments they captured and look forward to working with them for our Marriage Blessing and reception in the Fall.
This was the best decision my husband and I made for our wedding day! Johnny and Brittany are dream photographers. They captured our love in its true authentic form. They were an absolute DREAM to work with. They most us feel comfortable infant of the camera. If you are looking for a wedding photographer I would choose Bee Two Sweet instantly!! We cannot imagine our special day without them.
Johnny and Brittany are such incredible photographers! I knew the moment I met them that it would be exactly what we wanted for our big day. Our engagement shoot was AMAZING and when they arrived on our wedding day to begin shooting I felt like I was reunited with close friends the moment I saw them. They have a unique talent that captures each moment in its truest and most beautiful form. I don’t even have words for how grateful we are that they were a part of our big day. If you are looking for a team that is seamless, professional, talented, down to earth, full of positivity, and ridiculously amazing at their craft you have to hire Bee Two Sweet. This was the best decision we made when choosing vendors for our wedding. All I can say is thank you!!!
I knew having a great photographer was going to be one of the top 3 important things for our wedding (along with food & DJ), so I was prepared to be discerning in our search.
Bottom line - We 100% made the right call hiring Bee Two Sweet and we loved them.
We met Brittany & Johnny at an expo and their booth was incredible compared to so many of the other photographers there. They displayed so many shots that were clearly candid yet managed to have amazing lighting, color, drama, energy... Tons of professionals can capture a great angle or beam of light, but these two obviously had a talent for understanding how to put the artistry in their photojournalism in a way that showed you the STORY of each couple or wedding, not just the way they looked. Learning that they both had backgrounds in technical theatre, this made complete sense. They understand how to tell a story in a visual medium.
Not only were they clearly talented, but both Brittany & Jonny are incredibly friendly! Quick to smile and make a joke, it felt like we were going to be working with old friends. We booked them immediately :-D
As I'd said, these guys were the best vendor we had for our wedding, really going above and beyond more than anyone else we had. Here are some specifics on why --
1) Advice & manner -- My DH hates being photographed. I got us the package with the engagement sessions, and Brittany explained that this was a valuable opportunity for him to get used to the camera, so he wouldn't be feeling uncomfortable on our wedding day. Excellent advice and Brittany was wonderful at talking to him during our shoot so that he got over some of that unease. Her ability to quickly create rapport really helped us have a great time downtown as we took our photos.
2) Communication & forethought -- We were able to text, FaceTime, and email with Brittany and Johnny, which made scheduling and planning a breeze. I was especially pleased that they were sure to create our spreadsheet of family shots well ahead of time, so that on the day, we wouldn't be scrambling to track down great-aunts or toddlers. These guys were always responsive to our questions and concerns, and they were one step ahead on advising us how we could make our lives easier.
3) Empathy & flexibility -- I had to have a medical treatment the month before our wedding and unexpectedly started to lose my hair 2 weeks before the big day. I was devastated and panicky. I told Brittany & Johnny what was happening, and they generously suggested we do a small shoot of me and my DH before the big day while I still had my hair. We went to one of my favorite parks on a Tuesday with Johnny and, dressed in our wedding best, we got some portraits of the two of us with me looking like myself. This was not something they were contractual obligated to do, but it spoke volumes about their kindness and their desire for us to have the best photos possible for this important event. How many other photographers would have done that for us without charging us extra? True heroes to me, in that moment.
Of course, on the day, they were stellar. Barely noticed that they were there at the ceremony, we did some gorgeous formals (they were very conscious of my energy limits, the dears), they suggested some shots that I now cherish, and the candids from the reception are outstanding!
Amazing quality photos from two thoroughly professional, empathetic, and fun souls. Completely worth their fee. I adore these two. Thank you, guys!!!
Working with Brittany and Johnny were absolutely the highlight of our wedding! We met them at a wedding expo and immediately fell in love with their colorful and candid style.
The engagement shoot in Old Town was so much fun and we are so in love with the photos from that day. We'd never had professional photos taken like this so we were a little nervous, but Brittany immediately put us at ease with her super friendly and welcoming personality. We were so happy that Johnny was able to join and help out as well! I'd definitely recommend doing the engagement shoot if you can -- it absolutely made taking photos much easier on the day of the wedding since we'd already developed a bit of a rapport.
The actual wedding was magical. Brittany and Johnny showed up early to scout out the venue and figure out the best shots, and were always on the lookout for that perfect picture -- even if it comes right before the toasts! We did a good bit of prep on the phone before the wedding arrived, so we knew exactly what to expect and where to be at all times --- which meant we spent as little time as possible on the posed family shots and more time enjoying our day! All of our guests commented on how much fun they had with Johnny and Brittany around.
I can honestly say that we don't think we would have the same amazing day without Brittany and Johnny there to capture it all. We loved all of our vendors, but hands down BeeTwoSweet was the best! We feel so lucky that we were able to work with them and would recommend them to anyone and everyone!
Brittany & Johnny are the best!
Brad & I met them at a Wedding Expo in Baltimore & we were blown away by their portfolios. Brittany has a way with lighting that will make you look like a damn movie star!
During the wedding & reception, they touched base with us to be sure that we got the shots that we wanted; other than that, they were everywhere & nowhere. Looking at the pictures after the wedding and I'm like "They got that shot? I don't even remember them being in the room" :)
Brad & I are already talking about anniversary photo shoots & renewing our vows (many years down the line) & we already know the photographers we want to use.
If you use any other photographers for your big event, you will be disappointed.
It's hard to say anything about Brittany and Johnny that their pictures don't already say for them. I met them at a wedding expo I went to on a whim very early in planning and fell in love with them. Their easy going personality and absolutely GORGEOUS photos were an immediate sell for me. It was really important for me to have a photographer I got along with since I'd be spending so much of the day with them and it was very obvious Brittany was that person. Johnny did an amazing job with the boys and working the crowd, I kept hearing "I went to take a selfie and he just popped up and took it for us and snapped one as well". The man is everywhere all at once. On a very stressful day Bee Two Sweet photography was one thing I knew I didn't have to worry about.
It was love at first sight when we met Brittany and Johnny at a wedding expo last year. Their portfolio was literally breathtaking, but their personalities were really what drew us in. The pricing and packages are simple and straightforward, really a bargain for the VALUE and QUALITY. Our consultation was very organized and professional. We could tell we were working with seasoned veterans. During the wedding Brittany and Johnny were like magicians, seemingly invisible but right always there capturing the moment! They went to great lengths to gain the perfect angle for every shot. Our guests were even impressed by their agility and flexibility. We couldn't be more happy with the service we received. Brittany and Johnny showed so much care in making sure our wedding day was special. They even stayed much longer than they had to because they were so committed to capturing every special moment. We had an amazing experience with Brittany and Johnny and cannot thank them enough. They are a MUST HIRE for your special event!
Bee Two Sweet was the perfect compliment to our wedding. Our venue and plan was a bit non-traditional, and having now looked at the photos, I can appreciate the tools they used and thought they put in to capture amazing photos without asking us to compromise on our dream day in any way. In fact, they showed endless excitement towards our ideas and elevated them into the photos we dreamed they could be. They were organized, brilliantly kind, and generous with their time. We are walking away with a very personal capture of one of the happiest days in our lives, as well as a joyous set of engagement photos. I look at these photos every day with a smile on my face.
Bee Two Sweet was the perfect team of photographers for our wedding. We met with a lot of photographers and they all seemed pretty much the same until we met Britney and Johnny at Bee Two Sweet. They take a much more artistic approach to their photos and they all turn out amazing. They make sure every detail of every photo is perfect. You get so much more than just traditional wedding portraits. You get beautiful pieces of artwork in every photo. Unique angles, lighting, and composition. We could not have asked for more from a photographer and will cherish these photos for the rest of our lives.
Brittany and Johnny were the absolute best vendors that we worked with during our wedding process...and our pictures are INCREDIBLE! They are genuinely lovely people and were super flexible in making sure to get to know us prior to our wedding since we did not do engagement pictures. Day of, Brittany and Johnny were the ultimate professionals and happily stepped in to help out whenever needed. I keep hearing from our guests how lovely they were. We got our pictures way ahead of schedule and couldn't be happier with them.
Working with Johnny and Brittany was amazing! Brittany helped me so much planning my wedding timeline and making sure us having fun and enjoying our wedding came first, without losing the chance for beautiful photos to remember the day. Day of, Johnny took incredible photos and was fabulous to work with. He and his second shooter (thanks Pete!) were all over the place taking shots from all angles, and risking life and limb! Would HIGHLY recommend to anyone looking for photographers!
I don't even know where to begin. From the start of our wedding process, Brittany has been non-stop fabulous. Her creativity and energy are infectious. She is fearless and always ready to do what needs to be done to get the perfect shot. She is also incredibly dedicated. It was such a fun surprise when I woke up the morning after our wedding to find she had already sent me a fantastic shot from the day before! I highly recommend hiring Brittany, she is easy going enough to be flexible with your wedding day, but also commanding enough to get your family to focus and get through the portraits before heading into the fun shoots!
Brittany and Johnny did such an amazing job with our engagement and wedding photography! They are both so easy to work with, and are so personable! I received so many compliments from my wedding guests on how great my photographers were, and so many compliments on the beautiful pictures that they were able to capture. If I could give them more than a five star review, I definitely would!
I cannot rave enough about Brittany and Johnny. They were AMAZING! I was really nervous that some people (specifically my husband) would look awkward in their photos from posing. However, Brittany and Johnny really knew how to make things work so that the awkwardness went away and everyone felt comfortable! They really know how to bring out genuine emotions during a nerve wrecking time! I also love how artistic they are with their work. They look out for cool photo opportunities and will go above and beyond to get the perfect shot. We just got our sneak peaks and they are AMAZING! I can't wait to see our full album!! Thank you so much Brittany and Johnny!
All of the stars, and more!! Brittany & Johnny are truly within the top percentage of photographers in their industry. We first met them at a local wedding expo, connecting with them quickly during a 20-30 minute chat, and thought, "They're awesome. But wait, we can't hire the first photographers we meet... can we?" So we put our instincts to the test. We heavily researched photographers and viewed A LOT of wedding photo galleries to get a sense of each photographer's style and skill. We narrowed our long list down to a short list, and we interviewed those on the short list (phone, Skype, facetime, and in person). After some initial emails with Brittany, our infamous 2-hour FaceTime call happened, and we knew our decision. We even had a little fun with the way we told them our choice (check out the Bee Two Sweet blog if you're curious). Fast forward to the small handful of months we had left leading up to our wedding, the day itself, and now. Brittany and Johnny easily helped us feel prepared for the big day (yes - do an engagement photo shoot) and answered all of our detailed questions without hesitancy. They made us feel comfortable and carefree. It really felt like they knew us, we knew them, and that they weren't just people with cameras and lights. They even handled a few family hiccups with calmness and poise. Following our wedding, we were ecstatic to get a sneak peek highlight gallery of our photos and then the full gallery of our images. We loved getting to relive all parts of the wedding day, and we have also received countless compliments about the quality of our images (even from guests who could not attend and non-guests). Our next step will be working on a photo album with Brittany, and in the future, we hope to use Bee Two Sweet again for other special events in our lives.
It was truly an amazing experience to have Brittany and Johnny photograph our wedding! I was very impressed with how organized and responsive they both were during the planning process and how they listened to my ideas and needs. While I was getting ready for my wedding, Brittany captured moments that I didn't know would be so meaningful and powerful until I saw the pictures. You could definitely tell that she is a seasoned wedding photographer because she sensed my anxieties about my DIY wedding and gave me welcomed guidance and help outside of photography. During the ceremony, I didn't even notice her around... but when I received my pictures, it was very apparent that she covered every special moment. During the family pictures, I requested that we keep the pace going since some family members like to trail off, and she did it flawlessly. During our couple pictures, Brittany and Johnny bounced ideas around for poses to try that would fit the type of couple that we are. I am very thankful that people like Brittany and Johnny exist. Without their expertise, knowledge, guidance, creativity, patience, and ability to think on their feet, we wouldn't have epic pictures that truly captured our unique personalities. And an added bonus-- Brittany and Johnny are truly amazing human beings and brought nothing but positive vibes and tranquility to our wedding!
Hiring Bee Two Sweet was hands down the best and easiest decision we made while planning our wedding. When we met them at a wedding expo, we immediately knew they were the ones! We were not only impressed with their work, but we felt an immediate connection with them. They knew exactly what we wanted and they delivered. Working with them was effortless and extremely fun! Our engagement session with Brittany at the zoo was so much fun! She thinks outside the box and came up with some lighting effects that took our picutes over the top. She patiently waited with us until she had the perfect shot we wanted with the seals (even as we were almost being kicked out of the zoo).
On our wedding day, Brittany and Johnny arrived an hour earlier than their contract time and immediately got to work taking beautiful pictures while getting ready, and even working with our dog to snap a couple of pictures of her. They were super creative and worked to highlight the architectural features of our hotel for some gorgeous pictures. After the family pictures at the hotel, Johnny went over to the venue while Brittany stayed behind with the brides for more pictures. She even served as our bodyguard to keep other guests from seeing us as we left for the venue. At the ceremony and reception, they interacted with the guests and captured every moment seamlessly. We enjoyed their company so much we even forgot they were there to work. Our families and guests absolutely loved them! In less than two weeks after the wedding they already had already created an album of the highlights that we could look at while they processed the rest of thousands of pictures. We cannot recommend them enough. They are quality photographers and an absolute delight to work with. We can’t wait to work with them again!
Brittany and Angie were fantastic! We couldn't ask for such fun and professional photographers, and we as a couple had an absolute blast because of them. Do not waste your time looking for other alternatives!!!
Brittany was so easy to work with and helped me surprise my now fiance at the Kennedy Center. Her energy and enthusiasm is very genuine. Her photos are amazing and we were blessed to have her there to capture the moments before and after the proposal. Her tips were perfect, but she also just let us be ourselves. For example I remember her telling me to stand up more straight for one shot and that photo is one of my favorites. We can't wait to hopefully work with her again!
We first encountered Bee Two Sweet Photography at a friends wedding where we watched them engage the crowd in a way that made taking pictures fun. We were blown away by how fun, professional and engaging they were at ours. We still have guests commenting about it. Best, and most important of all, is the pictures are wonderful and captured the magic of our special day.
I cannot say enough good things about Bee Two Sweet Photography. We haven't even seen all of our photos yet but I already know they will be amazing. Brittany got our highlight reel to us in under a week after our wedding, while juggling other events in the same weekend! We received SO MANY compliments on our photographers during and after the wedding because they are literally everywhere and can make photos happen, even if you're camera shy and have weird quirks like me! Brittany can wrangle a big crowd with ease, so if you have a big family and a strict timeline, Brittany is your girl. I could brag all day about how great they are to work with, but their PHOTOS really do speak for themselves. If you've ever looked at their work, you will see so much creativity behind every photo. They dare to be different, they take shots others shy away from, and they capture moments. We wanted candid photos and we definitely got them. I probably looked through their portfolio hundreds of times even after hiring them, because they are amazing and beyond every other portfolio I looked at. Brittany gives direction well, so after a few photos, you start to know what to expect. Brittany also adjusted on the fly when our reception timeline didn't go as planned. They are the best people to work with and we can't wait to see the rest of the photos. You will NOT be disappointed. If photography is your number one priority, like it was for me, go with Bee Two Sweet. You will be so happy you did.
Dear Brittany & Johnny,
Thank you very much for capturing every moment of Rachel & Luke's wedding. Your presence never felt intrusive and you were always there precisely when it was necessary. Blending in is such a crucial trait in a great photographer as well as helping people to feel comfortable in front of the camera. Your skills in these areas appear to be spot on. I am looking forward to seeing your photos more than I can say because I just loved every moment of the wedding. I am still on Cloud Nine!!
A former English teacher of mine said you should never thank a person twice in the same note, but I am breaking her rule. Thank you again, from the bottom of my heart, for shooting all the highlights of the first of what I hope will be many fantastic celebrations in our family's life.
May you continue to have great success.
Yours truly,
Myra Handfinger
Bee Two Sweet photography was the best choice we’ve made out of our entire wedding vendor selection. Johnny wasn’t available for our date, but Brittany made sure to find a worthy 2nd photographer and these two made an amazing team! I’ve had multiple people at the wedding commenting on how diligent and involved they were throughout the wedding. No important moment was missed, no creative angle unexplored - the whole wedding day photo shoot felt smooth and professionally tailored.
Brittany makes sure to ask the right questions before the big day. She knew all close family members’ names and which group pictures we were looking for. Without her clear directions and detailed agenda, we would never be able to capture all the friends and family during this crazy-amazing day. She knows how to follow the timeline seamlessly and organize the unruly crowd of we-all-wanna-hug-you-right-thus-second relatives.
At the same time, Brittany knows exactly when to let go and let her creative mind take over. We’ve always felt very natural and at ease during the portrait session, which at times could feel a bit robotic with other photographers. They found multiple cute spots in the venue vicinity for us to make unforgettable pictures.
All in all, the whole experience working with Brittany was beyond perfect. Don’t even hesitate to hire her.
If i can give Bee Two Sweet all the stars - I would!
First, Brittany and Johnny did an outstanding and amazing job for our engagement photos and our wedding day. My husband and I had a very fun and enjoyable engagement photo session with Brittany and Johnny. They MOST definitely brought their A game. Gave us really good directions on what to do and how to pose. Add some very much needed humor from the Brittany and Johnny, and they definitely loosened up two very camera shy people (that would be my husband and I).
Our engagement photos turned out amazing, despite the gloomy weather and humidity. Bee Two Sweet had it down! Our photos were delivered within a week's time.
Second, Fast forward to our wedding - Brittany and Johnny tag teamed our wedding day! Johnny took some "getting ready" photos of the groom and groomsmen then headed over to my room to get pictures of my mom and my bridal party. After the ceremony - Brittany stuck to our proposed wedding shot list, and got everyone moving right along. She allotted some much needed time for my husband and I to take our own couple photos after the ceremony. She had it down and did not miss a beat! While Johnny is back at the venue taking pictures of our wedding details for the reception.
They were moving along with us during the reception photos, snapping photos of my husband and I, our friends and families in action on the dance floor.
Lastly, EVERYONE...i mean EVERYONE at our wedding enjoyed Brittany and Johnny. They were enthusiastic, fun, and were very willing to take picture requests from our guests!
Thank you Bee Two Sweet Photography! You were truly such a pleasure to work with - NO DOUBT!
Long Story short - HIRE them, you will not regret it.
Bee Two Sweet Photography is truly a level above any photographer out there. Owners Brittany and Johnny were an absolute dream to work with. We discovered them purely by chance when we heard a radio ad for a wedding expo that was happening in our area the very next day. My husband and I thought, "what the heck, it could be fun." We saw a few photographers that day and looked through their portfolios, but when we walked by the Bee Two Sweet booth two things stuck with us -- their photos were on another level, and we felt an immediate connection with Johnny (Brittany was speaking with other people that day). We later met with both of them later in the week and decided that there was no other choice. During the planning phases, Brittany and Johnny both made great suggestions to enhance our ideas. They also helped us organize our "family portraits" to make sure no one was missed. On our wedding day, Brittany and Johhny not only helped us ease our anxiety, they made us feel completely comfortable and were cracking jokes during our portraits. During the ceremony and reception, they were virtually invisible and completely unobtrusive, so we really didn't notice them, but they captured all of the best moments. Our photos are so beautiful. The colors and detail are exquisite. I would proudly, 100 percent absolutely recommend Bee Two Sweet to any couple looking for a photographer. Brittany and Johnny are the absolute best choice, hands down.
We put a bug in Bee Two Sweet’s ear about shooting our wedding right after we got engaged; this is how badly we knew we wanted Brittany Diliberto to shoot our wedding. And boy oh boy is it one of the best decisions we have ever made. With their creativity, talent, and “go team!” attitudes, Bee Two Sweet (the phenomenal wife and husband team of Brittany Diliberto and Johnny Shryock) has captured our wedding in ways we couldn’t have imagined. Bee Two Sweet conceived of and orchestrated so many gorgeous shots - and silly ones, too - that truly document not just any pretty wedding, but *our* sentimental, playful, and uniquely individual New Year’s Eve wedding. For example, my wife and I originally were not going to do a first look but when Britt said “Ok. That’s great. But can I float an idea by you? ... CONFETTI CANNONS!”, we got really excited and switched up our plan. And the experience of it was a blast - it wasn’t all about getting the shot, but about having a wonderful, playful time and then capturing the amazing time we were having on film. Our guests also had fun with the midnight countdown confetti - another idea of Brittany’s. Many a boomerang was shared on Insta of friends and family playing in confetti at our wedding. And the photos that came out of that midnight countdown: EPIC. It should also be noted that Brittany and Johnny work seamlessly as a team and are super generous and kind with everyone - they made a huge impression on our family and friends. And on us. You end up spending a fair amount of time with your photographers on your wedding day and we had so much fun hanging with Brittany and Johnny. They are individually amazing humans with tremendous talent, and together they are an unstoppable force and #relationshipgoals. We are beyond thrilled to have worked with Bee Two Sweet for our wedding and so grateful for their flawless documentation of our once-in-a-lifetime celebration. I cannot urge you strongly enough to book them for your special day.
We met Brittany and Johnny at a bridal show and hired them on the spot! Their photos were different than every other photographer and we knew immediately they were the perfect fit for us! In every photo we saw, they captured amazing moments filled with real emotion. When we saw their perfect reviews online, we knew we had made the right decision. Brittany shot our engagement photos and both of them shot our wedding. Brittany's artistry is so impressive!! Nothing felt staged and everything felt natural and comfortable. Johnny's personality and charm is such a nice complement to her creativity and vision. Needless to say, we could not be happier with our choice of photographers. Bee Two Sweet far exceeded our expectations!
We met Brittany and Johnny at a wedding expo and I could go on and on about how amazing they were! They shot both our engagement & wedding photos. They are extremely kind, professional, and of course... FUN! we had several timeline and transportation changes and they rolled with the flow and managed to capture some very special moments. Don't hesitate, BOOK THEM ASAP!!
Brittany did an amazing job on both our engagement photos and wedding photos this summer! We spoke with many photographers, but Brittany was so talented and personable that we knew right away we wanted to work with her. Neither my husband nor I particularly like to have our picture taken, but Brittany managed to make us both feel really comfortable, and we had a lot of fun working with her. When our photos came back, people could not stop talking about how amazing they were! We highly recommend Bee Two Sweet!
We worked with Brittany and Johnny for our wedding in April 2017 and engagement shoot beforehand. We could not have dreamed of a more professional, fun, and talented pair to capture our wedding. Our pictures are all wonderful, and Brittany and Johnny both added so much joy and ease to our wedding day. They are more than just photographers, they are magic-makers! You will love having them as a part of your wedding.
Guys, we cannot begin to explain how much we enjoyed having Bee Two Sweet with us on our wedding day. BTS took our engagement photos, wedding day photos, and my maternity photos. Brittany has an incredible eye and is completely open to strange requests. My husband and I were looking for photos that were a little cooler than the traditional set-up shots. We got more than we expected! The biggest thing I can say - I completely trusted Brittany on our wedding day. I was nervous about wedding photography but after our engagement session with her, I knew she would capture everything during our wedding and do it beautifully. It was honestly the one thing I didn't stress about on the day of. If you're having a wedding in the DMV, you really need to go with Brittany and Johnny.
Brittany and Johnny were a godsend for our engagement and wedding photos. Brittany does an amazing job of keeping the photoshoot organized, and staying so chill. She even took photos on my Grandma's camera during the wedding, which was beyond sweet. On top of the two of them being a dream team for your wedding, the photos are stunning. No two photos are the same. Brittany is a lighting designer, and you can see her eye for light in every photo. It's jaw dropping.
My husband and I had Brittany shoot our engagement and wedding, and she was the BEST. I still get compliments on my photos. So helpful in planning out the entire day, Brittany advised me on how long photos take, what the options are for family photos, first looks, bridal party photos... all the things you forget to plan for. On the day, she got incredible shots that I didn't even ask for. She has an intuitive sense for where the action is. She's imaginative and ingenious about getting amazing photos and capturing the spirit of the day. I highly recommend!
Do not hesitate for a second. Book Bee Two Sweet as soon as you can. You will not be disappointed, I promise. Brittany was a dream to work with through every aspect of this process from planning, to the day of our wedding to coordinating the final picture selection. Her keen eye, patience and humor brought out the best in every picture she shot. We've had countless comments on how amazing our pictures are, and we'll cherish these moments she captured for the rest of our lives.
Brittany and Johnny were amazing to work with. Great ideas for engagement pictures, unobtrusive at the ceremony and reception, yet captured every moment. The finished book is incredibly beautiful. You will not be disappointed with any aspect of their operation!
Brittany and Johnny are great friends of my husband and I. They performed at our wedding only 6 short days after their own wedding. Mike and I were blown away by how professional and creative they were with every shot they took. Brittany took time out of her busy wedding planning to help me develop a timeline for the photography on our wedding day and she and Johnny were able to execute every group of photos efficiently. My husband and I are so pleased with the photos that Brittany and Johnny are able to share with us. Every photo brings us back to how we felt that day which is such a wonderful thing. My husband and I will treasure these photos and the time we spent with our great friends for the rest of our lives.
Johnny and Brittany are absolutely incredible. They shot our engagement photos and recent wedding. They are so much fun to work with and make you feel comfortable. They are so creative with their photos and are totally willing play around with different ideas during a photo shoot to see what works. I was a little worried about the photos being very staged or stiff but they are anything but. I am so incredibly in love with our photos, they brought our personality out in them. I cannot say enough amazing things about them. I have received so many compliments on the photos as well as them when they were taking them. They really make everyone feel special and beautiful. They put so much love and passion into their photography and it shows. I absolutely recommend them, you will not be disappointed ❤
Johnny and Brittany did our engagement photo shoot and will be shooting our wedding in May 2018. First off, let me say I actually sobbed when I got our engagement photos they were so amazing. I am pretty self conscious about my photos and I felt that we looked great in ALL of them. They perfectly captured our personalities and the photos were beautiful (they also took place in a sunflower field in full bloom, a location which was THEIR idea- genius). Secondly, the actual shoot was awesome. They were fun and funny and made us feel totally comfortable. They really had fun with the shoot which made for some really unique shots. We can’t WAIT to see the photos from our wedding when the time comes, but I can honestly say it’s one aspect of our wedding day I am 100% confident in.
OMG! Brittany and Johnny are the absolute best! We had a conversation prior to the shoot to discuss what I was looking for. I have to say I was very particular about that I wanted (artistic shots that played with lights, colors, angles, etc.) and what I didn't want (side profile, standard kissing photos, looking fat). Brittany asked for some samples of what I liked and we made a plan to do the engagement shots from 7:30 - 9:30 PM so we could get some daytime, sunset, and night photos. We did shots on the backside of the Lincoln Memorial, on the lawn to the side of the Lincoln Memorial, on Pennsylvania Ave. in front of the Capital, and in one other location that I cannot remember the name of currently.
The photos were turned around pretty quickly and I LOVE them!!! We got some great typical engagement shots in addition to some really cool artistic ones with long exposure and blurred lights, our reflections in a pool of water. The session went longer than intended because we were having so much fun and Brittany and Johnny got to experiment with shots. It was the absolute best experience and I would highly recommend them to anyone!!!
I used Johnny and Brittany for our engagement photos and wedding photos in April of 2017. They were mind-blowing and so fantastic to work with. So much that we have used their services for my company too and I recommend them to couples looking for outstanding wedding photography that is affordable. I highly recommend them. I very much appreciated their positive vibes and the enthusiasm they brought to the day. You felt like you were having a close friend photograph you and follow you around all day so it made for a very comfortable 10+ hours together. And my husband who HATES to take photos actually enjoyed himself and endured all the snaps because they really put him at ease.
I still look at our wedding photos throughout our home each week and I am so thankful for the images they captured from that day. These are lifelong memories that we will never ever forget and to have them photographed in such a meaningful and lovely way was truly priceless.
I hate being in pictures, but Brittany actually made the whole process fun. She got my quirky sense of humor and made it work. Our wedding was out of town and she was very supportive of the travel required. She got great pictures of all of the events that night and her engagement photos were spectacular. She really knows how to capture the perfect essence of nature and people. All of our guests loved her. Many state she was the best photographer they worked with (and they have had a lot of weddings over the past five years). She is very dedicated. We took a bus home, even after she was off the clock for well over an hour, she took pictures of us departing the bus. Way above and beyond. I would recommend her to anyone.
