About this vendor
I’m Brittany, a laid-back, candid and colorful photographer in Kalamazoo, Michigan. I love working with ALL couples, but especially have a soft spot for non-traditional weddings. My gays, weirdos, ADHDers, D&D players- I'm your girl. Let's connect over our shared passions or fandoms- I'm a lover of all things spooky, Halloween, books, cats, oat milk lattes, Star Wars, and continuing education courses.
Coming from a unique background, I’m here to help you with whatever wedding issues arise. Not having a father-daughter dance because your dad is a jack-hole? HEARD THAT. Having some issues with family and need a liaison, or a body guard? Good thing I lift heavy weights ;) Someone who respects and appreciates your pronouns, relationship, love story, dynamic? ABSOLUTELY! You deserve that respect. I’m constantly working on myself and my craft so that I can provide the best experience to all of my couples. My goal is for clients to think of me as their friend by the time the wedding day is done.

We loved working with Brittany! She took beautiful photos for our engagement and wedding. During planning we had a couple communication snafus, but she was genuinely apologetic and offered additional services that more than made up for it. On the day of she was absolutely lovely and even though she was working with 2 camera shy people she and her second photographer managed to get some absolutely gorgeous shots. She also took beautiful detail photos and lots of wobderful candids of our guests. She really was able to capture the joy on people's faces! I love her editing style - it worked really beautifully with the older venue and vintage vibe of our wedding. I'll treasure our wedding photos forever - thank you Brittany!
Loved working with them! Such a great team, so accommodating and thoughtful. Translated into such meaningful photos. I would absolutely work with them again!
Brittany was beyond amazing on our wedding day. She is fun with lots of energy and she listened to everything that I wanted. My husband and I are terrible with being photographed and Brittany just accepted our awkward and ran with it.
Brittany's professionalism and attention to detail was inspiring and much appreciated. She kept me sane and on track the entire day and even advocated for me when I was too anxious to do so myself.
Our photos are stunning and far exceeded my expectations. The gallery is simple to access and share. I was happy to see that it is also organized by
the type of picture and time of day. It was also very easy to favorite and order any photos that I wanted.
Overall, the entire experience that we had with Paint My Mind Photography was absolutely outstanding and I am very excited to work with Brittany again.
Brittany is absolutely incredible and I could not be happier with my photographer for my wedding!! I had to push my wedding back a couple time due to illness and brain surgery and she stuck by us the whole journey. She went out of her way to even buy little things for our wedding photos. I also was having some family issues while I was getting ready and dressed for my wedding. She came right in and handled it. It’s like she speaks a brides launguage and just instintly knows what to do and how to handle things on your big day. Not to mention she is an amazing photographer. Very creative and we could not be happier with her!!
My (now husband!) and I are from Chicago and first met Brittany in 2021 at our best friend’s wedding in Michigan, and we loved her work so much, we knew right away we wanted to work with her whenever our big day happened! Fast forward two years, and Brittany + her assistant Alexa traveled to Chicago for us and captured every single special moment! She was so empathetic and knew when to give us moments in private, but also got creative and made us look stunning in not-so-glamourois Chicago alleyways. Thank you for giving us a lifetime of memories, Brittany!
Brittany was amazing! So helpful leading up to and on the day of the wedding! Highly recommend.
Brittany is amazing and we couldn’t recommend her enough. For our engagement shoot she helped us select a beautiful location for outside shots, and then was super flexible about a second location (at our favorite brewery). When we had to postpone our wedding due to the pandemic, she was very responsive and understanding. When we finally got to celebrate our wedding, she brought such a fun energy to our day and our photos. Weather threw a lot of curveballs at our plans, and she helped us navigate them all in a way that brought some peace to the day. Her expertise in taking family portraits also came out when getting our young nephews to smile for the camera. The turnaround for our sneak peek was so quick, and the photos turned out absolutely stunning. We love her, and our only regret is that we’ve now moved out of state and won’t be able to have Brittany do all the photos for our life events. 100/10.
Our experience with Paint My Mind Photography was amazing. We found Brittany through Instagram, and we were worried that her being on the other side of the state would be a struggle or an issue, but it wasn’t any sort of issue at all. We had Brittany for our Engagement Photos and she traveled all the way to Detroit so we could have a cool unique location for our pictures. She made us feel so comfortable right away. She was super friendly and welcoming. After our photos, we all sat down and had a drink together to get to know each other a little better! No other vendor would do that.
Leading up to our wedding, Brittany kept in touch with us. We consulted with her regarding our wedding day timeline to see what she thought would work best for day-of timing. We truly put all of our trust in her opinion for some details, and there were no issues! We’re glad we did.
The day of the wedding, she was amazing. She captured every important moment that we had. She arrived on time and started immediately. Some of the photos she captured we thought to ourselves, “we didn’t even know she was in the room taking these pictures!” The second photographer she brought with her (Alexa) was great also. They really made us feel so comfortable and tag-teamed the pictures.
When it came to family photos, we got everything done in a timely manner. She was quick with getting photos done with family and making sure we got every family combination we needed. She rode with us on our party bus and got awesome pictures of us on that. We honestly loved the entire experience from start to finish with Brittany. The experience was great, the photos were absolutely amazing, and the process working with her was so smooth. We will be recommending Brittany to everyone we know, and going back to her to capture any other important life experiences we have!
This beauty is so great to work with! She is kind, professional and makes you feel very comfortable to be on the other side of the lens. And her work is stunning!
Brittany and her assistant were amazing. From the engagement photos to the actual wedding, she always made us feel comfortable (and we are extremely awkward people who have never done professional photos before). She always checked in with what we wanted, our vision, and went along with our theme (Halloween/spooky photos). The photos were so beautiful! All of our friends commented on them constantly to the point where my friend also booked Brittany for her wedding! Brittany is super nice, respectful, and down to earth. If you’re on the fence, absolutely book her. She is worth way more than what she charges. Totally worth it!!
Working with Brittany was one of the highlights of our wedding experience! Her prices are incredibly competitive and the quality is very high. She made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and captured some pretty amazing shots.
We appreciated that the engagement shoot was included in our package as neither my husband or I had ever done any formal pictures before. Right away we knew we would like working with Brittany.
Like many 2020 couples, for safety reasons we made the difficult decision to cancel our large gathering in MI and move to a much smaller intimate gathering in WI. Given the location change, we expected to have to find a new photographer, but Brittany said no problem and came out with her (equally amazing) assistant Ashley.
Both photographers were awesome to work with, flexible, had so many ideas and were able to wrangle in our (rowdy) bridal party.
I couldn't recommend Brittany enough and look forward to working with her in the future for family shoots.
Brittany was great! We are so glad that she was our engagement and wedding photographer. My husband and I are very camera shy, but Brittany made us feel relaxed and comfortable! Brittany used our engagement shoot to get to know us and help us feel comfortable in front of the camera. On the wedding day, she was like a ninja. Except for our posed photos, I rarely noticed her and the second shooter; she promised us a non-intrusive, documentary-style approach to shooting the wedding and that is exactly what we got! We've gotten our preview gallery for our wedding, and we were thrilled. We cannot wait to get our full wedding gallery.
I highly recommend. She was very easy going, friendly, organized and sweet. Not only that she does amazing work. Captured our special non traditional day perfectly. I am so insecure and thought I'd hate every picture I was in but she managed to capture so many beautiful pictures of my family and I. She has so much talent and I'd work with her a million more times!
Brittany is absolutely amazing, I am so impressed with our engagement and wedding photos. She is very helpful and is right on top of any questions you may have. I highly recommend to everyone.
