hold on to all of your favorite feels, forever
congrats you’re engaged!
Okay, don’t panic. I promise that planning your wedding or elopement isn’t always stressful. If breezing through planning sounds too good to be true, I’ve got news for you. The experience will be what you make it. And I’ve got a feeling you’re down-to-earth and focused on creating a day that you (and your fiancé) enjoy - not a day that you’re expected to have.
Not only have I been in your wedding-planning shoes, but I also have a knack for noticing priceless moments as they’re unfolding. That’s my cue to pick up my camera and get to work. Because real memories aren't only found in the big things, but the little, unplanned moments as well. You deserve an incredible experience throughout the entire process, and I want to give that to you!
Let’s be real - it’s important to vibe with your photographer, so I make absolutely sure to provide the best service possible with the MOST fun and giggles. I’ll hold your hand through it all, help you scout locations, bounce ideas back and forth, jam out on the dance floor, and turn your memories into works of art.
Now what?
elopements
An elopement is perfect if you’re looking to step outside the "norm"
This can be everything from a grand adventure day to a short and sweet ceremony and picnic! While we certainly can, don't feel like you have to climb to the top of a mountain in order to have an elopement. You can even have an elopement ceremony at a 5-star resort!
From brainstorming the best spots, detailed location lists, and help with permit research, I will hold your hand every step of the way.
To me, photographs aren’t just about the perfect pose, lighting, and composition. Rather, they’re about capturing true human connection and the love you and your partner feel for each other. They’re all about holding onto that feeling from your wedding day for ever and ever.
elopement coverage includes:
All the usual photo shiz (online high res gallery, download rights, etc.)
80+ page Elopement Planning Guide to get the ball rolling
All photographer travel expenses to and from location(s).
Unlimited planning and consultations designed to create your perfect day
Custom brainstorming and location guides, permit help, logistics.

YOU'RE KEEPING IT TRADITIONAL OR JUST COULDN'T NARROW THAT LIST DOWN
We love that for you! I tried to transition strictly to elopements and intimate weddings and you know what....
I MISSED FULL SIZE WEDDINGS!
There are pluses to every single type of celebration and I want to make sure yours is treated as it deserves to be. I have 7 years of experience capturing traditional weddings under my belt and while there are traditional elements to most, they're all still so special and unique.

"Don't keep looking, just book Brogan"
"She is a literal photography master and is just an overall wonderful ally to have as a vendor on your wedding day. She doesn't just snap photos and call it done - she is there every step of the way before, during, and after. Never once does it feel awkward posing for so many hours because she makes it fun and easy and effortless. I clearly have picked Brogan multiple times, and I would continue to pick her 100x over. Don't think, don't keep looking, just book Brogan.”
Marissa M.
We were able to be ourselves and not have a worry in the world!
You exceeded our expectations! We couldn't have picked a more perfect fit for someone to capture the day. We appreciated all of your flexibility, efforts in finding our beautiful location spots, answering all our questions and your humble and kind nature. We were able to enjoy the day, be ourselves and not have a worry in the world. You are so talented and truly blew us away!
Lacey & Max
"The best decision we made for our wedding"
"Working with Brogan was the best decision we could have ever made for our wedding. The whole day was absolute MAGIC. And let me tell you, the photos she took captured it all. Each photo was better than the last. She captured every emotion, every laugh, and every seemingly little moment. Our final gallery included so many photos from every angle and distance - it’s amazing to realize they were all taken by one person! The quality of her work is impeccable."
Sage R.
"She made us feel at ease"
"From the get-go, she was prompt, organized, detailed, and just all around lovely. She made us feel at ease during our engagement shoot and she was an actual angel on our wedding day. She offered locations for both shoots. This woman is amazing! If you want a photographer who does way more than her fair share of coordinating while making you feel like you’ve made a friend, she’s your gal. The pictures were stunning, but that was only a part of the whole experience.
Alyssa W.
Brogan was an amazing photographer!
She did such a great job leading up to the wedding and at the wedding itself. She was available for any question we had and was organized and ready the day of. She took amazing photos and made my husband and I feel so comfortable in front of the camera. I cannot say enough good things about my amazing experience with Brogan!
Sharlene M.
Brogan was fantastic for both our engagement session and our actual wedding day.
She has such a calm, chill attitude which helps so much with the stress of a wedding. At the same time she is an efficient machine with all of her photos; I never once had to worry that a moment wasn't being captured or photos were taking too long. Brogan was one of the best decisions I made for my wedding and I am so happy and lucky she was able to be a part of my special day!!

The first step is as easy as reaching out! You don’t have to have it all together or know what you’re doing. That’s where I come in! Give me as much info about the two of you and your vision as you please and we get the conversation going from there. I’m only a quick and easy consult call away from lending a helping hand.

$1000 down to secure your date then the remaining balance is split into a custom payment plan. Most default to a monthly payment to help budget, but I set it up however works best for your situation. Remaining balance is due in full 30 days prior to the event. All payable electronically with any debit or credit card.

I'd basically have to be hospitalized for that to happen. But in a worst case scenario, I reach out to the hefty network of photographers I'm friends with and trust whole-heartedly and find the perfect stand in. I then edit the photos in my signature style and handle the rest from there.

If 2020 has taught us anything, it is that some things are out of our control. For the most part as long as we find a date that works mutually, I'm flexible with reschedules but a small fee may apply in certain situations (this will be outlined in detail in the contract. If you cancel completely or we can't find a reschedule date that works mutually, you forfeit your retainer.

Am I going to beautifully edit your images? Yes. Am I going to alter your appearance? Nope, I love you just the way you are. I'll fix a blemish here or a stray hair there, but I'm not going to change body shapes or lipstick colors or anything like that. You're going to look like you.

Then we dance in the rain! Living in the PNW, it is never a bad idea to have a backup plan. But also don't let it stress you out or start obsessing over the weather forecast a month out. We will make it work with what we're given and it will be beautiful. I promise some of your favorite galleries and images you have seen on my page were taken on rainy days and you can't even tell. Other sessions we reschedule as needed.

If there are travel fees associated with any project, they will already be included in the proposal and coverage options I send you. Easy peasy.

I spend more time with that than I do actually pushing camera buttons! From the second you reach out until after your day, I AM HERE TO HELP. Timelines, location scouting, permit questions, family list guidance, family rants, I got you boo.

I will capture families on rare occasions, typically for past couples and clients I've already worked with. I do not photograph seniors or do videography as they are a whole different art and there are so many people who excel at it!

I'll be sad if you don't! Even if they're only in a few photos or you bring a friend to wrangle them so y'all don't stress, I'm 1000% Team Doggo. I have three myself so I know all of the tricks to win them over.
