Forever Young Portraiture

a great turn around time getting your photos back to you. If I had a million bucks I would have paid it.. And I would refer her to anyone. She also photographed my friends wedding and did a beautiful job! Thanks Brandi for capturing such a beautiful moment in my life! :) I re-live that day every time I see the pictures.

res at University of Redlands and they turned out amazing. We just got married less than a month ago but Brandi has already sent me a few pictures. They are simply breathtaking and edits them beautifully. She really captures great moments and is very modern with her technique (not outdated shots or poses). We were so comfortable around her. We got several compliments from guests on how professional she was the day of the wedding. I will definitely be using her for all future photo shoots!

pproachable, prompt, and sweet. I got married May 30, 2014 at the Santa Ana Courthouse. I had arrived a little later and I meant to, but Brandi had already started taking pictures of the venue. I had been a little anxious, but Brandi had worked with me and made me feel comfortable enough to break out of it and taken pictures. She had also went to the reception and taken pictures there as well. I don't think I could've chosen better. Brandi is prompt, sweet, caring, accomodating, and made me feel like it was my day. Thank you!

well as many other amazing pictures I didn't think about before hand. She really went above and beyond. She captured so many great moments on our special day, and thanks to her, we will forever be able to relive those moments. She also did an amazing job photographing the reception. She really captured the fun everyone was having and much much more. Her prices are extremely reasonable too! I highly recommend using Brandi for your wedding or any other event you may be having! :)

onderful to work with.

r work and attitude, we booked the same day. I emailed her throughout that year to set up our engagement photo shoot, and to just ask general questions, and she always responded quickly and answered any questions I had. Her prices are budget friendly as far as wedding photography goes, and I would gladly pay it again knowing the quality of the pictures I’ve received. On the day of our wedding Brandi was truly amazing – she captured our wedding so perfectly! The pictures are STUNNING and I can’t tell you how many compliments we've received on her work. She takes very natural and creative photos- nothing looked too staged or fake. I LOVED it! I feel so lucky knowing that the biggest day of our lives so far was captured so beautifully - I will be happily displaying these pictures forever! I would definitely work with Brandi again if I ever need more professional photos…maybe baby photos one day?! Haha you never know. To any future brides considering Brandi – go for it. you will not be disappointed!

at eye for artistic moments and is very patient. I have not seen all of my pictures yet...just the sneak peak thus far. But I love every shot! She made a unique package that was exactly what I wanted from my photographer, and really hard to find other places. She added parent albums to my package, along with pictures on a DVD set to music for myself and both sets of parents. The amount you get for your money with Brandi is fabulous! If there is something you want, she will do it for you. She offered her whole day to me even though she was not technically contracted to do so. I couldn't have been happier with my decision. Thank you, Brandi, for photographing our wedding! -Kathy & Matt

essional and very courteous with me and my husband back then fiancé . We talked that the wedding was going to be in San Bernardino California and the reception in Hesperia California . I have to say that my wedding couldn't have been what I had always dream if it hadn't been for brandy, not only did she arrive super early at my home and help me to relax and to get ready but she also took fabulous pictures of me getting ready and of my parents giving me their blessing which to me that will be a picture very close to my heart and to my parents also. Brandy was there at all times, from my home we went to the mass ceremony at the church, brandy got there before i did she had asked me previously for the church address so I know she went by to make sure she would get there right on time which she did. At the mass ceremony she took beautiful pictures from the time I arrived to the time me and my entire family left to the reception. Brandy took the pictures right how I wanted to remember every single special moment from the time I got there with my dad to the time me and my husband said "I do " after the mass ceremony we took many pictures in the church, outside the church and with my family and friends. After the mass ceremony we drove to Hesperia California , my reception was at my brothers house which has a acre of property that was all accommodated and arrange with lights and roses and so many other details that i am so lucky to have all the amazing pictures that brandy took because I open my photo album and appreciate all the beautiful moments I spend that day with my family and friends and specially with my husband . Brandy left later than the time we had scheduled just because she didn't wanted to miss anything special for me ... And she still kept the price we had discussed . I highly recommend forever young portraiture, brandy has the experience to show you how to pose from every angle to make you and your husband look absolutely awesome, she has the patience and attitude to make you feel completely happy the way every couple should feel on their wedding day . Thank you so much brandy for helping my day be absolutely beautiful ... Rosy and hector piza

s poised, professional, and prompt. She opted to meet whenever was convenient for me, in fact we met before she had a wedding that day (she always arrives early to scope out the scene and meet with potential future brides). She was professional and brought her work in albums and explained everything to both my partner and I. My partner and I walked away feeling confident in her work and her abilities to photograph our wedding. Without hesitate we booked her for our wedding and it was the best choice we made! Brandi is budget friendly and worked with us when we sort of "created our own package"--she had everything set out if we wanted it, but we chose another route, which she gladly worked with us on. She showed up to our wedding early and was ready to start taking photos the minute she got there. We told her it was important at all cost to get the shot--even if she was in someones way, well she did it, but she was quiet and everyone hardly noticed her! She not only got to take photos, but she got to know us and our personalities. When I say she got right to work--I was still messing around and she already had my Dress on a hanger and taking photos of our dresses and rings. She was just waiting for my que to say let's start with our bridal party! The family and friends of the wedding loved her and she was so prompt on getting us our "sneak peek" on Facebook and to us and she emails back almost immediately! She had our disc to us in a matter of two weeks in a beautiful case and she offered her services if we ever need touch ups on the photos. Brandi is the absolute best choice you can go with--I will continue to recommend her to everyone I know. I've been in your shoes Brides...she's budget-friendly and way worth the call!!

our posing and was really open to any ideas that I had. It was awesome to see my ideas captured exactly the way I envisioned them. Her pricing is very competitive and the quality is amazing. I loved everything about it.

was very flexible and gave us the freedom to be creative if we wanted. Brandi was punctual and stayed throughout the entire wedding even though it was beyond the package allotted time. Brandi has also offered to create special effects for any pictures we want, any time. Overall, we like our photos, but could have had more guidance when it came to posing and picking the locations for our photos- we're not exactly the creative type. She was such a pleasure to work with and I'd recommend her to any bride/groom that is trying to not go into debt over their wedding. Definitely good bang-for-the-buck and not an amateur.

ur wedding. She is very kind and didn't push us like the other 4 photographers we met up with. She almost felt like a friend. She stayed at our wedding longer then the contract said and she didn't charge us extra and we appreciated that so much. Her and her husband made the picture process with just me and my husband fun and creative. My family and friends had a great time as well and loved the photos. When I have children she will be the photographer to take my little ones pictures. She will be in our lives for a very long time.

nd relaxed when it came to picture time. She was amazingly affordable and my husband and I can't get over how fabulous our pictures look, I would strongly recommend her to anyone!!

raditional wedding. She went above and beyond what both of us expected and spent more time than was necessary making sure she got the best shots. She was personal with our pictures, but very professional and down to business. Our pictures turned out amazing and I couldn't be happier with the shots, the package, and the professionalism that Brandy displayed! Thanks Brandy for helping us out on these days! You really helped capture our family and our day(s)!

h friends etc, but I either didn't care for the photo samples I saw or didn't like the demeanor and/or price quote of photographers I spoke with. Then I had my niece's friend tell me to go on "the knot" and I found Brandi from Forever Young Portraiture. When I called, Brandi was a total sweet heart...easy to talk with and was open to all the picture ideas I had, and her price was in our budget! Our wedding was a vintage style country backyard wedding with approximately 100 guests on June 8th, 2013. Brandi showed up exactly when I needed her to and got right to work! She blended into our home atmosphere, quietly taking pictures, capturing our day perfectly. It was nice that she was so easy to talk to and have take our photo's, I think that it made our pictures come out wonderful, because we were both relaxed. Overall, my husband and I both agree, that Brandi was totally professional, our portraits were amazing, her price was awesome and we would use her again in a heart beat! We will certainly recommend her to anyone who needs a great photographer! Jill & Chris

or. We chose to go with Brandi because we were impressed by her pictures, she was very reasonably priced, was confident in her abilities, and seemed to be easy to work with. On the day of our wedding she was prompt and quickly took charge while I was still getting ready. She was very friendly with my family, friends and other vendors. She confidently directed my family and wedding party in all types of poses, in a very nice manner. The wedding party, my husband, and I have some very creative and fun shots, all that she directed. Later she got great candid shots at the reception. She was attentive the entire night of the wedding schedule, and was there to get all the shots. After the wedding, my husband and I had some very specific photoshop requests, and she was happy to accommodate us. We received our photos right away which we are extremely happy about. We were able to see a bunch of photos within a week. The rest of the photos were completed shortly after in the next few weeks. One last thing is that Brandi is always a fast and professional communicator, responding to calls or emails very quickly. Overall we are VERY happy we chose Brandi to be our photographer and would recommend her to anyone getting married!

otographer.

raphy. However, as manny brides-to-be know, "splurging" on a photographer is by no means cheap. At first, I thought it was perhaps because it was one photographer, then I questioned whether or not the photographer would be willing to drive out to Lake Elsinore. Well, I met Brandi (all e-mails/phone calls were professional, prompt, and super friendly) and knew she was it. Brandi is not only a people person, but she brought out photo albums with a variety of styles to better understand what I wanted as a bride. She takes the time to know you, on a personal level, so that on your wedding day, you not only have a photographer, but a friend. The day of our wedding, she helped me get ready (let me tell you it helped calm my nerves), asked if I needed help with anything, and took tons of pictures that we will forever cherish. Because we were married in a church (rules!) she was respectful and still took many beautiful pictures. Afterwards, we rushed over to the lake (by the way we had to change locations at the last minute) and Brandi ensured our wedding party looked amazing despite the heat. After our wedding, Brandi e-mailed me to keep me posted on editing/etc and I was thrilled when our package came in. Before it did though, you get the thrill of seeing them on your online album :-) Don't be fooled by the bargain or the fact that Brandi is one photographer. Come on ladies, you know we can do it all! Boy, did she do it all and more! In the end, your wedding day will fly by (taste your cake!), but your memories are forever, so go with Forever Young Portraiture! Thank you so much Brandi!

as the best find of our wedding! Brandi was great! She worked within our budget, made us feel very comfortable, was very friendly, talked to us about anything we needed (not just about the photos), and from the engagement session to the actual wedding was there for us the entire way. I have recommended her to about 3 other couples that are getting married and 2 of them ended up using her. I will keep recommending her if i get the chance. Brandi you rock!!!

es we were even more impressed with the price considering the quality and skill level of the photos. The photography was one of the most important things to us for our wedding, as we really wanted some great pictures to always remember the day. We definately made the right choice with Brandi. She arrived right on time, was very good at directing us for the pictures and was fully open to anything we wanted to do. She took a lot of creative pictures, things we wouldn't normal have thought of, to really help capture the day. After our ceremony ran late, Brandi was even kind enough to stay longer than scheduled and get some great pictures of the reception. Anyone searching for a photographer, call Brandi and don't think twice! Thanks again Brandi! Daniel & Fallon

n more impressed with the quality and professionalism that she gave all the time. She was there to answer every question whether it be through email or phone call. She made taking pictures fun by suggesting cute poses. She was very affordable and made payment arrangements very easy. Brandi stayed and captured every moment of our wedding til the last person left, which I loved! Thank you Brandi for providing me with memories I can share for a lifetime! We can't wait to use you for our baby pictures one day!! I am a very happy bride!

and her husband were a wonderful photography team and able to catch a lot of memorable moments. Absolutely gorgeous! She was easy to get ahold of and responded to my emails and texts faster than I responded to her lol! She listened to my ideas and also provided me with great ideas. I texted her and emailed her pictures I liked and guess what she did every pose I sent her. She is a very talented photographer and I would highly recommend her to anyone. Thanks Brandi!

ll vendors REALLY care. They only look forward to the business and getting paid and sometimes it shows. Brandi on the other hand becomes a part of your life even after the wedding. She really wants to make her clients happy and will go above and beyond for any requests being made. Aside from all of this, her work is AMAZING! I was really blown away with the quality of her photos. Everybody including wedding party and guests had a wonderful time with her and enjoyed getting to know her. I still get compliments about my photographer...Mrs. Brandi. She is just a delight to work with. There were times when I forgot she was my photographer and just treated her like a guest because she is just that awesome! My wedding was on a yacht in Newport Beach on June 9, 2012. I was a bit concerned where wedding photos would take place. Brandi really worked with me and constantly followed up with me to be sure this would all be taken care of. The photos turned out better than I imagined. She really truly does go above and beyond to make everybody happy. She is prompt, professional and she provides artistic variations in her work. You will definitely get the best value for your money....LITERALLY. I was blown away by her wonderful packages because she is so very fair and reasonable and believe me I shopped around for a very long time for the perfect photographer. All moments were captured properly. My husband and I ordered the large package to include the engagement session and that was also just PERFECT! We were both really satisfied and happy with our decision to hire Brandi for our very special day. Thank you so much Brandi for assisting in making our wedding a true fairy tale! There is no doubt in my mind that your business will continue to grow. You deserve it!

the day of our wedding. Our wedding took place in 3 different locations and Brandi was the first at each location in order to catch as many pictures as she could!! The results were fantastic, our pictures look amazing! Brandi's prices are affordable and she will work with you on customizing a package that works for you! If you are looking for someone to capture your special day, I definitely recommend Brandi! Thank you again Brandi!! Kayla and Brandon
