Hello!

I’m Brandon, a photographer based in Athens, Georgia.

My approach is simple — I focus on real moments as they naturally unfold. The in-between, the energy, he people, the feeling of being there.

From backyard weddings in upstate New York to courthouse ceremonies in Florida, I’ve been trusted to document some of the most meaningful days in people’s lives — and that’s something I don’t take lightly.

Testimonials

    Brandon exceeded every expectation we had for our wedding. We did an engagement shoot with him first, which turned out to be one of the best decisions we made. It gave us a chance to get to know him before the big day, and from the start he was incredibly communicative and quick to respond, which made the whole experience feel so easy and stress-free.

    By our wedding day, he already felt like someone we trusted completely. That trust meant everything, because my husband is not someone who loves being in front of a camera. Brandon has this quiet, reassuring way about him. He’d offer a gentle direction here and there, but mostly it just felt like having a kind friend nearby, not a photographer working a job.

    The work itself is breathtaking. He shot our day on film, digital, and Super 8 video, and every format captured the beauty of every detail that day. And beyond that was how how beautifully he captured the candid moments, the hugs, the laughs, the in-between seconds we would have completely forgotten. Every picture has a warmth and texture that feels timeless and beautiful, like true art.

    If you’re looking for a wedding photographer in Athens who will make you feel completely cared for and deliver work that genuinely takes your breath away, Brandon is your person. We are so grateful we found him.

    Having Brandon as our wedding photographer was the first thing we secured when planning our special day. We’ve now worked with him for seven different occasions, and we knew we were in the best hands when it came to something so invaluable to us.

    Brandon answered every small and big question throughout our entire planning and preparation process. From the beginning, we knew our photography experience would be personalized specifically for us. He met with us several times before our wedding day to fully understand our vision, and then went above and beyond our expectations.

    Like all weddings, there are always surprises. Brandon did an exceptional job communicating with me in the days leading up to the wedding and on the day itself, especially when rain appeared in the forecast for our outdoor elopement. We were able to make quick decisions the night before — gathering umbrellas and updating the entire itinerary. Thanks to Brandon, our day still flowed smoothly and beautifully… with barely any rain, too!

    One of my favorite parts of working with Brandon was how he interacted with our guests. He is an excellent communicator — professional, welcoming, and personable. He made sure my husband’s and my needs were always the priority.

    We even had to rearrange the schedule for our ceremony, and Brandon made sure we still had our moment together as bride and groom during our first look and vows.

    Lastly, Brandon truly takes the time to get to know his clients, and his photography and videography work reflects that.

    Working with Brandon for graduation pictures was perfect! It’s hard to find a film photographer and that’s frankly all I cared about. He did an amazing job at making me feel comfortable and translating my vision. I’ve kept up with his work ever since a friend recommended him to me!
