Hey there! I’m Brigette

I am a wedding +elopement photographer based in the Chicago land area! I am an avid traveler, foodie, & music fanatic! When I am not out photographing the beauty in our world, I am often planning my next international adventure or photographing live music. I love mountains, oceans, forests, the color purple, hats of all kinds, & just having a grand ole time through the ventures of life! My approach to photography is candid, fun, & laid back. I do not pose my couples stiffly & awkwardly but rather give a series of skits & small tasks to do & act out to bring out those natural, genuine reactions! I love the couples I get to work with & helping plan every detail of your day! I truly feel like the luckiest person in the world to work my dream job every day!

I can not wait to hear from you guys!!!

WHAT DOES YOUR MONEY GO TOWARDS?

I know all the costs associated with dreaming up a wedding can be overwhelming. I want to explain the value & additional costs that go into photography that clients may not be aware of. From beginning to end I spend a minimum of about 30 hours on each session from the time of initial booking to delivery. My prices reflect the whole entire process and not simply the hours you book me for. Your money is going to SO much more than simply documenting the 1-2 hours you hire me for and I like for you to have a basic understanding so you feel confident about what your money pays for!

*The whole planning process of location planning, obtaining permits, clothing help, timeline planning, & email exchanges

*10-20 hours of editing//post processing work after your shoot

*Time exporting/Importing/ Backing up/ optimizing/uploading to your gallery & the costs associated with hosting it online.

*Wear & tear of professional's high-end equipment, expertise, & unlimited help with timeline planning!

*All travel time and fees associated with Ubers, L Trains, & parking fees.

FAQs

How customizable is each package?

After years of doing this, I have come to find most people need an 8, 9, or 10-hour package. When smaller, I recommend a minimum of 2-4 hours. However, if you have a different number of hours in mind or want to add anything additional to a package, just let me know and I can build you a custom package with a custom quote!

Do I offer Prints & Albums?

Yes! Your gallery link will have a PRINT SHOP tab integrated with it so that you can easily drop and drag any photos to a shopping cart. There is a wide assortment of different products at all price points you can purchase from one of the top print labs in the country. I do not require printing through me, but highly recommend it to ensure the best quality, papers, & inks!

How many images do we get, how do we get them, and when will we get them?

On average, I will deliver around 50-70 final high resolution, professionally edited images! Turn around time for photos is within 4 weeks of your session date. I always send a sneak peek of 10 images within 1 WEEK of your session! You will receive your gallery of final photos in a shareable link that can easily be viewed & saved on your phone or desktop.

Do you offer help in planning the day?

100% YES!!! I love helping plan your day to help it run as swiftly as possible for you both! Need help figuring out the most epic location spots for stunning photos? The best time of day to get those incredible couple portraits? I got you covered 100% and am available for you to contact or meet to discuss options!

Do I use photoshop?

I do go through individually on photos and retouch them and do some light skin smoothing. All of your photos will be edited in a certain style to create a cohesive story of your wedding day. I can remove blemishes, scratches, & bruises, if needed. However, I do not like to create any fake effects or alter your appearance in any way, you are perfect the way you are, & I am here to make you feel naturally beautiful in your photos!

Why would I want a second photographer?

I am fully capable of photographing your day solo. However, there are some major benefits to having a second photographer for your day. A second photographer means more perspectives, angles, and expertise for your photos. They often can capture more details throughout your day, than my time allows. They especially come in handy during your ceremony time, allowing many perspectives of this special moment to be captured. Having a second photographer generally helps the day run faster, smoother, and more efficiently as they serve as a second pair of eyes and hands for anything needed! I highly recommend them if your wedding will be over 75 people. Second photographers can be booked at a minimum of 4 hours and cost $65 an hour to add to any of your packages!
