Married Dec 2024 in San Francisco – So my secret weapon was my photographer. I’d had the pleasure of working with Brandi during covid when my only child graduated from high school.... I wanted a real photographer capturing a real “senior year” pic - not just the average ones from the high school. His pictures were stunning. I already knew Brandi had a knack for capturing those beautifully memorable but spontaneously unplanned moments and I knew she would do that with my wedding. I’m also not new to working with photographers. I have been in advertising and marketing as my career for over 30 years. I can’t count the photoshoots I’ve been on or the number of good and bad photographers I’ve worked with, so suffice it to say that I know a great photographer when I see one and I know working with them is just as important as what they produce. So as a second time 60-year-old bride, I can say I was not shy about being picky about who my photographer was going to be. I also knew from my first wedding (even though it was 30 years ago) that your photos are truly the only thing you really look at repeatedly AFTER the wedding. They are the single most important thing, which is capturing memories. And I knew I wanted Brandi’s version of capturing our wedding. She is not only amazingly talented, but she’s also thoughtful, considerate, professional, and funny. Her sense of humor makes all our photos where we’re laughing 100% genuine and not faked at all. I think it’s her laugh - hands down it is contagious. But at the end of the day, it’s all about the photos and hers speak for themselves. She is uniquely talented and creative. She has an eye for a specific moment. I truly can’t put my finger on it – even with my own professional background on the subject. It can only be described as transcending. And I’ve even worked with some world-famous photographers in my career. When they have it, they have it. You want her to capture your memories.
