Brigitte Renee Photography

or our photos. The moments where she went "off-script" ended up being our favorite photos! She captured exactly what we wanted - meaningful moments, laughter, love, and pure joy. We would 100% hire again!

nervous to do our engagement photos, never having done anything like this, but she made us feel at ease immediately, always being so encouraging. She got to our session early at the Jefferson Memorial, so she could make sure the lighting was what she wanted. She got back sneak peak photos so quickly so we could get our save the dates out (she must work all the time to get the most amazing pictures so quickly). She always kept in touch, seeing if we needed anything. Fast forward to our wedding, she was so incredible to work with, prepared for everything (including a rain plan!). She had the best second photographer as well who was so easy to work with. I wish I could give Brigitte 100 stars, because this is how much I love her. She is 1000000% worth every penny.

working with her is that if a pose or a certain type of photo doesn’t work, she will communicate that. Nowadays with millions of wedding photos on social media you may end up falling in love with all the poses and want them all, like I did. But I found Brigitte very knowledgeable about wedding photography and I fully trusted her and I’m so glad I did! Our photos turn out gorgeous and we couldn’t be any happier with them. Oh and by the way, she sent our sneak peak the day after our wedding!!! How awesome is that?!!

tions from the original agreement. Most importantly, she gave us our sneak peek wedding photos (100 of them btw) the day after! & she got our full album to us within 5 weeks of our wedding! She makes photography fun and posing for photos way less awkward than you think it will be. I would hire her again in a heart beat because she makes you feel like a friend, and not just a client. We cannot thank her enough for her guidance and work in helping us remember so many moments of our wedding day!

nning she made us feel at ease and understood exactly what we wanted and how we wanted our wedding day to be captured. During our engagement photo session (highly recommend!) she made us feel less awkward and made something that we were kind of dreading actually really fun. This also gave us an opportunity to meet with her and work with her before the wedding. Leading up to the wedding Brigitte asked thoughtful questions about what mattered to us. She visited the venue and met with our wedding planner and proved to be a great communicator to ensure a smooth operation on the day of the wedding. She helped keep things moving on the day of the wedding and we never worried if we got the right shot knowing Brigitte was in charge. As two people who don't always love how we photograph we are SO happy with the results. Not only did she make us feel comfortable and confident, she delivered beautiful photos. The way she was able to capture the intimate moments on our big day is truly incredible! We can't say enough positive things about Brigitte - she's the best!

ctures are so professional they look like they were taken for a magazine. She made us look like celebrities. We are extremely happy that we have found Brigitte, and appreciate her very much. We highly recommend her.

hots are all wonderful. I usually do not like pictures of myself but have loved every picture from Brigitte! Also she was so quick turning around our sneak peeks and man were they gorgeous! Everyone has commented that they look straight out of a magazine and I could not agree more. Plus she is so easy and lovely to talk to, which is important given how much time is spent with your photographer on the wedding day. Absolutely hire Brigitte - you will be so thrilled you did!

and artistic her photos are. Brigitte makes you feel beautiful and comfortable in front of the camera, the photo session really is just a blast! We couldn't recommend Brigitte enough, she is an absolute joy to work with and is so professional at what she does.

te for an engagement shoot and she immediately made us feel beautiful and comfortable, esp while doing poses we weren’t used to. THANK YOU BRIGITTE!!

ed all of the moments Ninja Style!! We barely knew she was there!! When it was over and we saw all the things she captured we were beyond pleased. She was by far our best investment for that day 💜

lexible enough to accommodate last minute needs and changes. And it paid off! Our photos are simply out of this world.

w husband feel so comfortable in front of the camera. Her work is absolutely beautiful both digital and film, both of which she offers to her couples. I would highly recommend exploring film for your wedding photos. It adds so much character to the photos which my husband and I love. She made the wedding photo process so enjoyable and added in personal touches and extras to both our engagement photo package and our full wedding gallery package, both which we will treasure for a lifetime. If you are looking for a photographer who not only captures beautiful photos but is also just so wonderful have as such an important vendor on your wedding day, Brigitte is your girl. She captured our wedding beautifully and I cannot thank her enough!

ed(professional) demeanor put me at ease. She was so relatable and eagerly listened to what we had envisioned for our big day. She is such a delight to work with throughout the entire process. Brigitte and her team were able to manage and motivate a 22 person bridal party to get through photos in a timely manner. The moments she captured of our day are memories we will cherish for a lifetime.

with her style of photography which always has the subjects framed in a fun and natural way. When we met up for the engagement shoot, we found that Brigitte was the friendliest photographer that we have worked with so far. It was literally freezing that day, but she still was genuinely excited to take pictures. She guided us to stand and pose naturally and was extremely encouraging and supportive to help with any shyness or awkwardness with modeling while taking pictures. Following the engagement shoot, Brigitte was involved in helping us create a timeline in our wedding as well. She was extraordinarily organized and flexible with us. She sent us a general timeline that we used to help guide us through our 5 hours at our venue for the best lighting possible. Brigitte was patient with us through all of our requests and changes even up until weeks and days before the wedding. The day of the wedding, Brigitte captured little moments between Tim and I as well as interactions throughout the day with our guests, and tiny details that would have gone unnoticed. Even before receiving the pictures, we were confident in Brigitte’s abilities and did not worry one bit about how the wedding photos would turn out. Throughout the process, we were always put at ease with Brigitte’s prompt responses and her wealth of knowledge and experience. She is extremely professional and even delivered the wedding pictures ahead of schedule. Without a doubt, we would recommend Brigitte as a photographer and would definitely love to do more photo sessions with her in the future.

r pictures are because you have already seen these beautiful pieces of art. So here are all the other reasons why you should hire this amazing photographer... Brigitte was absolutely amazing in every step of our wedding planning journey to the day of our wedding and even beyond. Yes, we have come back to her for more pictures because she is THAT good. We were so lucky to have her for engagement photos, the whole wedding day and she even did our maternity photos! Brigitte wowed me from our first meeting. She is always prepared and so knowledgeable about what a bride wants and needs (not only just the pictures). She was so helpful in every way, and answered ALL of my questions (photo and non photo related). Brigitte is so much fun! My husband HATES pictures, I mean *hates* them. He truly enjoyed our time with Brigitte, from our engagement pictures, to all of the wedding day pictures (you know that's a lot!) and even after when she did our maternity pictures. She knows what she's doing when she's posing you and directing a big group. She'll make you feel like you are a professional model.... no joke. Brigitte gets your pictures back SO QUICK! I mean I know many hours and so much work is put into after the photos are taken but she works her butt off to get them back to you as soon as possible. (I.E. we had our sneak peaks of our photos the next day and the whole album soon after!). Brigitte is a sweet friend. We didn't just hire a photographer, we gained a friend. We were so excited to share with her all of our life news as we went on our honey moon, and when we got pregnant. What more could you ask for in a photographer?

easure for the rest of our lives. Her phototography is artistic, elegant and candid, all at the same time. Brigitte made an effort to truly understand the creative vision I had, so she could capture it accordingly. She was one of the first vendors I booked, and kept her updated with the planning process throughout the year. She always made me feel like I was communicating with an old friend, and that no request was ever a nuisance. She was attentive to every detail, and most importantly treated every (seemingly insignificant) note of mine with the utmost importance. Having someone like Brigitte with us on our wedding day made the experience even that much more fun. She kept us calm, even in the most hectic moments. My husband and I enjoyed her creativity, enthusiasm, and her ability to make us feel comfortable in front of the camera. I truly could not recommend Brigitte and her team enough!! Brigitte, from the bottom of my heart THANK YOU!!

wedding. She fielded dozens of our questions, and was by far the most detailed and organized vendor we worked with. She accommodated our requests for specific types of photos, table photos with our guests, and created an incredibly detailed timeline that made it possible to get all the photos we wanted. She also provided an entire booklet and general advice for the day of the wedding to keep things on track. Abby and her second photographer were true professionals on the day of the wedding. There was a light rain throughout the day, so it required a ton of flexibility in picking locations for the best photos, shuffling the timeline slightly, and through it all Abby hustled and took the most amazing photos that we will cherish forever. She captured so many candid moments and emotions of the day that it really feels like you are reliving it as you look through the photos. I'm not sure what else to say aside from you should definitely hire Brigitte and Abby for your wedding!

with so many things. Brigitte captured our engagement photos and wedding photos and both times we received our photos way earlier than expected. We even woke up the morning of our wedding with many sneak peeks already! Not only is Brigitte an amazing photographer, but she was so much more than that on our wedding day - she kept everyone organized, made everyone feel so comfortable in front of the camera, and was such a joyful and positive presence to have around especially during any day-of stress! Even family members and wedding party members made comments about how great she was during the day! I cannot recommend her enough and am truly blown away with how perfect the photos turned out!

d meticulous. Each time that we worked with her it was as if we were hanging out with an old friend. She made us feel so comfortable and provided so much direction to make our photos look so natural. Brigitte made sure that our wedding day was captured perfectly and was able to include all of the details that we may have missed during the craziness that a wedding day may bring. We couldn’t be more pleased with Brigitte’s work and only wish that we could do it all over again! We speak very highly of Brigitte, but even our wedding party, family, and friends mentioned how amazing she was. We woke up the day after our wedding and already had our sneak peek! This just speaks volumes to how much passion Brigitte puts into her work.

itte got to know my fiancé and I, which I loved. She was warm, kind, engaging, and interested in our story as a couple She is professional, talented, and made the entire process go smoothly - with helpful tips, tricks, and information. Even despite some unexpected rain (and hot humidity) that happened during out engagement photo shoot, she captured the BEST shots. They were amazing. The photos of our wedding day were also beyond incredible. Brigitte has a creative eye and special and romantic touch to all details. Her vision came to life that day! She was able to capture our day so beautifully. From the details of my grandmothers' gloves that I wore, to special portraits with just my mother and sister, to intimate portraits of my husband and I in our historic venue, I could not have asked for a better photographer. One of my favorite parts of the night was when Brigitte asked my husband and I if we wanted to go outside and take some quick pictures in front of the home. We went outside and took some amazing photos with the venue lit up in the background holding our signature cocktails :) some of my favorite photos! Thank you SO much for everything, Brigitte. I can't wait to look at these photos for the rest of my life! We're so lucky to have worked with you.

with her fun personality. She made us feel incredibly comfortable in front of the camera and her creative eye is so special. She’s one of a kind photographer that supported us all throughout the process beginning with a virtual meeting, engagement photo shoot, having a blast at our wedding, and finally through delivering the most gorgeous photographs (and WAY earlier than we ever thought - miracle worker!). Brigitte’s photography style, professionalism, and love she gives her clients makes her the perfect wedding photographer that we highly recommend!!!

t the best of you. She was definitely our cheerleader throughout the whole day, and even had my husband laughing and enjoying the pictures. ( and he hates taking pictures!) To top it off, she had our sneak peaks ready the next day and our whole gallery ready WAY before they were supposed to be. Book her now before someone else does!

ubbly, friendly and a very talented photographer. Brigitte was able to capture our wedding day, even with the weather was overcast and raining at times. Brigitte incorporated important aspects of our wedding in a very creative and beautiful way. Brigitte is professional and will walking you through the whole process. My husband and I are not people that enjoy being in front of the camera but Brigitte made us feel natural and comfortable while being photographed. If you’re looking for a wedding photographer, Brigitte is outstanding! We couldn’t be happier.

y and bright personality made us feel so comfortable and so excited to work with her. What caught our attention at first was her gorgeous photos. They felt so light and airy and that is exactly what I was looking for in a photographer. Our engagement session was such a great time! She was 100% okay with my outfit changes and location changes, and made us feel like models in front of the camera. My husband had never had photos taken and said he was worried about looking dumb, but Brigitte knows the perfect poses and directs you so well so you look effortless. She told us a timeframe in which to expect our pictures, and she completely exceeded those expectations! We had our gorgeous pictures back literally within a week. I was BLOWN AWAY by how incredible they are! Brigitte kept up with us between our engagement session and our wedding day. She promptly returned emails and always made sure every question I had was answered. Our wedding day was the most amazing day ever, and I attribute a lot of it to Brigitte and West. She made sure I felt beautiful and captured the most stunning photos of our day. Again, she directed us (and our bridal party) so well! We also hired a videographer, and they worked super good together. Brigitte has such a kind heart and her love for photography really shines through her personality as well as her photos. I look forward to her photographing all of our milestones through our new life together.

a breeze! What I appreciated most about Brigitte is that she listened to my suggestions and would be open with me about her thought process (which really helped me relax and trust her). I love how positive and fun she was during our shoots (the perfect hype woman); she made me feel like a true model! Her quality of work is excellent for an affordable price, so I think she was the perfect choice for us! Her 2nd shooter, Neysha was also fabulous and sweet. Overall, a wonderful experience!

nd after we hung up my husband and I took all of five minutes to decide we for sure wanted to hire her to be a part of our event. She has been nothing but warm, helpful, down to earth, and professional the entire time. She is very responsive and makes you feel prepared and comfortable for your shoot. The day of, Brigitte and Andrea (of Andrea Cable Photography, our second shooter) created an environment that made us feel like we had known them forever and our comfort level with the process came across in all of our photos. In addition, her attention to detail and the way she scouted the location, allowed for a smooth and productive photo session that day. The next morning, we even woke up to a sneak peek of our pictures, which I thought was a very sweet touch. The entirety of our wedding gallery Brigitte compiled is GORGEOUS, and I cannot recommend anyone more highly. We had the best experience!

er than expected! She was very prompt to the appointment and up front about costs and what to expect. 12/10 I would use her services again and would strongly recommend her services for your upcoming wedding or event.

s worried that we would be absent too long with photos and miss the fun, but she is like a miracle worker, and she has a fun, sweet way of knowing just how to get you to pose that simply makes the experience enjoyable and produces amazing photos (where even my non-photogenic husband looks fantastic). I don’t know how she did it, but she captured not just our wedding, but our personalities, our love and our joy. She is super personable, punctual, efficient, talented, professional and fun to work with. She has a special gift and we recommend her without any reservation.

of keeping me on track. A few weeks before our wedding, I wanted to take some family photos of us and our pup, who was recently diagnosed with cancer. Even though I gave Brigette no notice, she managed to work us in one evening. We only had 15 minutes before sunset so we had to work fast. I was hopeful we got a few good shots…Brigitte followed up the next day and I could not believe how many amazing portraits she got. We pretty much loved all of them. After that, I knew we made the right decision to work with her. On the wedding day, she was very helpful and was able to roll with the punches despite all the wedding craziness. She did a great job directing us and making sure we got the shots we wanted. She was also fantastic in moving the family portraits along. Our wedding photos are beautiful and we are so appreciative of Brigitte’s hard work. I have no doubt that I will use her again in the future – Brigitte is a wonderful person and I would strongly recommend her to anyone in need of a wedding photographer!

here and there, but as soon as I came across Brig I knew instantly that I didn't want anyone else to photograph our wedding. She is genuine, kind, silly, calm, compassionate, communicative, down-to-earth, patient, reassuring... do I need to say more? Her attention to detail is stunning, and her timing was always a thousand steps ahead. And the photos... I'm in awe every time I look at them. We were truly blessed to find her, and I wish I had a thousand events just so I can work with her again. If you are reading this, book her right now!

ithin our budget. Luckily for us, her previous plans fell through, and let me know she was available to capture our special day! From the moment we "met" Brigitte (through zoom) we knew we picked the perfect photographer. Brigitte is such a kind-hearted, outgoing, enthusiastic, and flexible person. She truly takes the time to get to know you as an individual and makes the process so fun and memorable. Planning a wedding in a pandemic caused us to change our original plans and she was willing to roll with it to help serve us and our wants/needs. (Not to mention you get your photos back extremely quick!!) If you are looking for an amazing photographer to help capture every part of your day and all the details I highly recommend Brigitte, you will not be disappointed!

ut her.

tos were stunningly beautiful and we felt so at ease with Brigitte. My entire family loved her and she was so easy to love. Her professionalism was amazing her eye is even better and I cannot recommend her enough. Our photos came so quickly and they were even better than I could've ever imagined. I cannot recommend Brgitte enough!!

ipe for the best photographer. She is talented, down-to-earth, and full of so many amazing ideas and qualities that you NEED in your photographer. If you hire her, you will definitely not be disappointed.

landscape! We are so grateful we have these beautiful pictures to look back on forever.

ood direction and tips, and made us feel like movie stars. I was so happy with how the photos turned out, its hard to choose my favorites! Brigitte not only gave me beautiful photos that we will cherish for years to come, she also made it fun, and created a happy memory for my fiancé and me. We had a blast from start to finish.
