As both a person and a photographer, Bri McDaniel is unbelievable.
"Bri is down-to-earth, a ton of fun and considers really getting to *know* her clients a major priority. We've met up several times, which has allowed our relationship to transition from client/vendor to actual friends. Bri captures the essence of her subjects and the mood of the moment in a way that is truly rare. She just sent us a sneak peek of our engagement session, and I have chills.
Bri didn't ask for a testimonial; I just truly believe that her work pushes the envelope and is so, so REAL. Book her. You will not be disappointed."

The quality of her work is second to none!
"Bri is so so so talented! She was one of the best choices we made planning our wedding. She is so professional yet very fun and makes anyone comfortable about taking pictures. She really takes her craft seriously and it shows in her work. We loved our engagement photos and wedding photos. She captures every moment! Two of our friends books her for their wedding photographer after seeing our photos"

Asking her to shoot our big day was one of the best decisions we ever made!
"I don't even know where to begin describing how amazing Bri is. I initially reached out to her to shoot our wedding and she did an amazing job. She seriously has a way of becoming a friend in the months leading up to your big day that when it actually comes she just feels like she was always supposed to be there. She is one of the most professional and talented people I know. Since our wedding, she has captured our maternity and new born images."

She really has an eye for the special moments ...
"I first saw Bri at work when she was a photography student at SCAD, and I knew when I got married I would like to get back in touch with her. Bri has always been talented behind the camera. She really has an eye for the special moments - not just the posed smiles, but the real moments of connection between you and your loved ones. She captures the details, those little sparks that you just can’t recapture in any pose! It is very evident that Bri loves love. And she loves the love that she captures in each couple! It’s a true gift! She has an editorial style - her frames look more like pages to a story book. The way she processes your photos look natural and seamless. If you want to look back and celebrate the biggest day of your life, let Bri be there with you!

We were completely awestruck by Bri's work - our search stopped there!
"Before my husband Jeremy and I got married, we decided that photography was just about the most important aspect of our wedding. Since everyone had told us that the day flies by, we knew we would cherish the memories in photos for years to come. Her vision and style is amazing, as is her demeanor and ability to get the perfect shot in a laid back, natural way. She's completely unobtrusive, letting moments unfold as they should and knows just how to capture the most beautiful photographs. We recommend, without a doubt, the magnificent Bri! "

She's truly a gem and we couldn't have been happier with her.
"Bri is amazing!! She's not only professional, she's also personable and really does get to know the couple prior to the wedding. She's flexible with your schedule, patient, and really does take the time to make sure every detail is perfect! She went over and beyond on the day of and she also helped set a calm atmosphere among the craziness that went on! She was so great at directing and capturing the perfect moments during the whole day.
The finished product was EVERYTHING WE IMAGINED AND MORE!!!! Every single picture was flawless and perfect. Bri is truly an artist and her talent shines through in the most unique and astonishing way

My style focuses on real storytelling. In fact, I like to think of myself as a romantic portrait storyteller. I will document your day as it naturally unfolds with as little interference as possible, capturing every little moment and fully telling your story. However, when the time comes for “formals”, I love to set up a situation and let my couple simply “be” with one another. Looks of adoration, delicate kisses, sweet whispers. It’s during these quiet moments that some of the most radiant and real photographs occur.

I’m based in Seattle, WA . I LOVE to travel. One of my favorite parts of my job is that I get to travel so often, so I will go pretty much anywhere. I only ask for you to pay a flat fee of $1000 if you’d like me to go on your adventure with you.
Professional digital cameras, lenses, and lighting by Canon, with backups.
Yes and yes! Please ask if your vendor requires proof of insurance.
When I’m photographing a wedding I get really excited, and end up taking 1000+ images. Some images are rejected due to bad expressions, repetition, or technical reasons. I’ll sort through the collection, and deliver every beautiful, emotion filled images needed in color and black and white to fully tell your story. Most wedding collections include between 250-800 images.
The first step is to contact me. From there we’ll chat about your wedding, availability, and how we can create amazing images together. To officially reserve your date, I require the signing of my contract and a 50% retainer.
Yup! Email me if you'd like more information.

I’m a huge fan of the digital era, but I also believe that its important to have a tangible product. And I just love the quality and emotion of a good print product. I feel that the best way to view your wedding day images is by sitting down with your new spouse and holding the images, reliving those moments one image at a time.
