your photographer and creative partner-in-crime
Hi, I'm Brenna!
From the beginning, I’ve been surrounded by people who have captured life’s moments - my grandpa and my mom. They always had a camera in their hands, capturing our memories as my sister and I grew up. Their love for preserving memories passed down to me. I didn’t know much about photography at first, but it didn’t matter. I loved the feeling I got from snapping photos with my friends or family.
Years later, after some soul searching my first year of college and meeting my (now) husband, I picked up my camera again and it all clicked. I realized that photos are more than “just pictures” - they are memories, stories, and special moments that are now visually documented, and can last forever.
Now, I’m here to help you tell your own unique story. Whether you’re planning a quiet mountain side elopement, an intimate wedding with your favorite people, or wanting to capture the fleeting memories of your family - I want to make sure you have photos that capture the real moments. Moments you’ll look back on for years to come. With my love for the outdoors (and my “Minnesota-nice” roots) I’ll be there not just as your photographer, but as a friend and someone you can trust to guide you through and document your most meaningful memories.

my "why"
View my services
To capture the essence of life, and love. I’ve experienced first-hand how precious and fleeting these moments can be. As a nurse, I’ve seen how quickly life can change, and that’s why I take my role as a photographer so seriously. I’m not just there to take pictures - I’m there to help you create memories that last a lifetime.
As someone who has grown around nature (and found her peace in it), I know how important it is to feel at home. To breathe in the beauty around you. That’s why I treasure elopements and intimate weddings that are rooted in nature. If you are looking for someone who understands your need for a low-key, real, and incredible experience - I’m here to help bring your vision to life.
I believe in the power of photos to freeze a moment in time.

"We felt comfortable the whole time! Brenna is easy to talk to and knows how to make the awkward feeling of a photo session not be so uncomfortable!"
my values
It’s about capturing the essence of who you are as a couple. My passion lies in working with easy-going, adventurous souls who thrive in the beauty of the outdoors and value moments that feel real and unposed.
I believe in creating an experience where you can simply be yourselves - laughing, exploring, and soaking in the beauty of the moment. From the very first conversation, I want you to feel like we’ve been friends for years. Someone you can trust to understand your story and document it authentically.
For couples who find joy in the simplicity of nature – standing on cliffs overlooking the shores of Lake Superior, frolicking in the open fields below the Tetons, or saying “I do” surrounded by the tallest pines in the world, I’m here to make sure your love story is told in a way that feels as natural and meaningful as the connection you share.
Because at the end of the day, it’s not just about the photos; it’s about an experience that creates memories you’ll treasure forever, in places that make you feel alive.
It’s not just about the photos.
