About this vendor
I know how you're feeling, I was a bride last year too. It's hard makin' all these damn decisions am I right?
Let me keep it brief girlfriend, I know you got a lot to do! I'm going to give you non cheesy weddings photos in a prompted rather than posed way. We will laugh a lot, talk about your plans and get to know each other leading up to your wedding. You'll be feeling comfy with me and I'll know a lot about you too! Editing: my edits aren't too 'bright and airy' but also not too 'dark and moody'. Best of both worlds! I promise that if you're my client, I'm equally as excited about your wedding as you!

Cheers,

If I could give her 10 stars, I would! Brogen is hands down the most creative, passionate and fun photographer I have ever worked with! We don’t live in SD but my husband and I wer...
e planning a wedding there, and she did our engagement shoot when we flew down to do some planning, and it was the absolute funnest day. Brogen has a spunk and energy about her that makes you want to let lose and have fun, she produced my absolute favorite photos EVER of my husband and I. They just were so unique and captured us so well. The moment I connected with her on the phone I knew she was the real deal and I’m so glad our paths crossed. We unfortunately were unable to continue with our SD wedding plans last year due to COVID, but we plan to keep going down there once travel restrictions lift and I know Brogen will continue to capture our special life milestones and moments for many years to come. She is such a gem and I just cannot recommend her enough!!
Hiring Brogen Jessup as my wedding stylist and wedding photographer was THE BEST decision I made for my wedding (other than marrying my husband). From the start, she took the time...
to get to know me and what my vision was for my big day. She asked me to share my Pinterest boards so she could get a feel for me; she created boards that she shared with me and we would discuss what I was drawn to and what I wasn't. She spent the time with me to understand what I wanted for my big day. She was such a good listener that even if I said yes to things but she could sense even the slightest hesitation she would pause there and say “I don't think you're 100% and I want you to be 100%. We can go back to the drawing board.”
I told her I don't want a traditional, classic wedding. I want something different, edgy, boho. I warned her that if you left me to it, I might auto-pilot into basic or out of fear not take the road less traveled. She never lost sight of the goal. There were times when she would remind me of what I wanted and redirect my sails. I’m grateful she did.
When she was taking my picture she made me feel like THE TOP MODEL IN THE WORLD, her enthusiasm after every shot was contagious! And the pictures turned out wonderful, they will forever remind me of the magic of that day. She is a rare combination of inspired artist with her eye for beauty and efficiency expert with making sure everything got done and fit together. My destination Antigua Guatemala wedding was scheduled for the very middle of the COVID pandemic. Like many couples we had to reschedule, Brogen went above and beyond to help. Take the stress of organizing a wedding, add a pandemic, traveling to Latin America, rescheduling all of the vendors, and making the day itself happen, I can honestly say it wouldn’t not have happened with her help, advice, enthusiasm, and knowhow. I strongly recommend hiring her, she was wonderful.
one word..AMAZING!! Brogen did our engagement and wedding photography. She is a world class professional and I can't thank her enough for capturing our special memories. Everythi...

ination of professional and fun. She helped make us feel comfortable in front of the camera and has an eye for what will look good in photos. She is great at directing others, and stuck to a schedule so we didn’t have to worry. The photo edits turned out gorgeous and I still have friends asking who did our wedding photos. We cannot recommend Brogen enough!
Brogen is not only the sweetest soul, beyond fun, and one of the most stylish individuals, but she is the best wedding photographer you can hire! I literally searched through hundr...
eds of wedding photographer portfolios and always came back to Brogen's work. After a consultation call with her, we knew she was the perfect fit!
I rarely love photos of myself, but I am not exaggerating when I say that Brogen captured 100's of photos that I am obsessed with! She is beyond a professional in her field and truly knows how to capture your wedding day the way it was and then some. She perfectly balances posed and candid images and knows how to make you look and feel beautiful!
Your wedding day will fly by and photos are truly the best way to remember and appreciate all of the amazing memories with family and friends, and all of the details that you chose. Don't wait another second, book Brogen, you will not regret it!

Want to look like the best version of yourself on your wedding day? Do you want people to look in awe at your wedding/engagement photos and say “You look like models!” Stop looking...
, you have found your wedding photographer!
My husband and I were lucky enough to snag Brogen as our wedding photographer when planning in 2019 for our August 2020 date. Brogen flew up from San Diego to Sonoma County to photograph a full day engagement session in Bodega Bay. My husband and I hadn’t ever taken photos outside of “okay, smile!” *queue standard couples’ pose*
Brogen made us feel and look like the most photogenic people on the planet. She spent the while day with us, grabbing lunch, spontaneously stopping at picturesque spots off the side of the road and ending with a walk on the (freezing cold) beach at sunset, all while keeping things light and fun. She even captured stunning photos of our pup who joined us for the session.
Planning a 2020 wedding was tough and Brogen worked with us the whole way through. Of all of our vendors, she was to most communicative and responsive. When we had to change venues from Santa Cruz to more than 2hrs north in Petaluma, she was flexible and assured us that everything would work out. As a planner myself, I was relieved to work with someone who was so on top of her own schedule and making sure that our day of itinerary would run smoothly with her photography needs.
On the wedding day, Brogen and her second shooter showed up with exactly the energy we needed and kept everyone on track. She connected with my bridesmaids, my husband’s groomsmen AND our parents in a way that allowed her to capture the memories of that day in a candid yet entirely styled way.
The day was HOT. 103 degrees to be exact. I don’t know what magic this girl did, but you would think that day was a perfect 75 degrees. She somehow made us all look effortlessly stunning in every photo.
This girl has an eye for light, let me tell you! When she says “let’s go, we have to catch the sunset,” you GO! Our sunset photos were stunning and such a surreal experience to have a small amount of alone time amid all the hustle a bustle of the day.
TLDR; Brogen Jessup is a dream photographer and vendor. She will go above and beyond to be sure your day is captured perfectly and provide you with the stability you didn’t know you needed on your big day!
Brogen was incredible- we are so happy with the photos that she took to capture the best day of our lives. I’m so happy that we found her. If I had it all to do over again, I’d o...
nly book her sooner!
She was on point with our schedule, kept the day rolling, and took photos that we will cherish forever. It’s incredible how many details you might not think about on your day that Brogen was really on top of (she made sure we had water bottles off of the tables, and she kept my lipstick handy- dream!).
I completely recommend Brogen. We are thrilled with her work and so happy with our wedding photos.
You have to book Brogen! She's the raddest person we hired for our wedding and you will not be disappointed! Few insights into her approach- she sets up a phone call to get to kn...
ow you and your future hubs, answers all questions, helps set up engagement pics and then is perfectly punctual for your big day! Check out her website and insta for the breadth of her talent- we were more than ecstatic to have her eye on us on our big day. Some other great things- is she so good at styling, trust her and although you may want a few specific shots, just let her do her thing because she comes up with pure magic. Day of- I even rode with her to my wedding because we needed just a few more shots - so believe me she's there for YOU on your big day. Her second shooter was awesome as well - my hubs and his groomsmen were totally not thrilled for pics but they felt super comfortable in the end and the shots were fire. After the wedding, Brogen had our sneak peek shots out to us THAT night! Then she had our other pics to us within 4 months - there was sooo many which is nice because you can pic the ones you think your arm hair looks good if you get picky lol. Also you can download from a website- talk about genius! Then after that we've even worked with her to build our custom album which - wow it is the best keepsake ever. I can't say enough and I know I'm rambling but please hire Brogen you can't go wrong. If you want super basic photos, maybe don't go with her, but if you want the photos that everyone will talk about and you will adore and you want a team player and friend throughout the process- Brogen is your photographer!
BOOK HER IMMEDIATELY!!
Brogen was AMAZING! I am usually awkward or uncomfortable in front of a camera and Brogen was able to just put me at ease and find beautiful angles and captu...
re our relationship. She went above and beyond. She just has such a clear vision and artistic eye - we just whole heartedly trusted her and went with her direction, and our engagement and wedding shots turned out amazing. THANK YOU Brogen! My wedding wouldn’t be what is was without her wonderful photography. Truly truly an artist.
