Let’s talk engagement session tips! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 1. When inquiring with photographers, you can ask if any of their packages come with a complimentary engagement session. Ideally though, you will want to have your venue booked in order to secure your wedding date with your photographer. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 2. Outfit planning can cause a lot of stress, but it doesn’t have to! Wearing closed toed shoes are usually ideal, and then curating a casual and dressy outfit to go along with it is based on your silhouette and comfort. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 3. Skip the spray tan. The camera picks up the artificial color in an odd way. I tend to add some warmth to my images, so usually paleness isn’t an issue. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 4. If there is something you are especially nervous about, communicating it with your photographer in advance can help them to reassure you, advise you and pose you. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 5. Your photographer is on your side! Befriending them along the way will add to your comfort in front of the camera and will keep things fun! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I am still accepting a few dates in 2021 for my last minute planners out there. I can’t wait to meet you and create art that you will cherish for the rest of your life! 🥰

Bailey & Jason ♥️ Just Perfect. I’ve been going through older galleries to view our progress and to reminisce. Some of my shots that I knew were good, but not my favorite, feel extra special now. I love this image for its colors and intimacy. • • • • #weddingcouple#brideandgroom#sacramentoweddingphotographer#sonomacounty#vineyardwedding#elopementphotographer#brideandgroomportraits#furstole#uniqueweddingdress#blueandgold#champagnetoast

I have so many detail shots that I’ve been sitting on to save my grid from getting repetitive... but I just can’t help myself.

Intimacy in front of a camera takes many shapes, but the most beautiful moments of all are when my couples just take a moment to breath together. Sharing that air and easing into each others embrace.

Helloooooo! 👋
Brooke the Photographer here!...

Helloooooo! 👋 Brooke the Photographer here! Just wanted to pop on for a moment to show you my silly face and tell you a few facts about me! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 1. I have loved photography since I was a little girl as my grandfather had a dark room in his home for processing film. I have been in the professional wedding and portrait world for three years. 2. I am secretly a massive nerd/weeb. I love collecting random knowledge about other cultures and am excited to plan some trips once this pandemic is over to feed that side of myself. 3. I love Jesus AND I believe that love is love. People deserve the right to be who they are and love who they love. I can go more into this, but I’ll leave it there for now. 4. I have a husband whom I shoot every wedding with and occasionally some sessions with. I love working with him. 5. I have a kiddo. Her name is Foster Marie. Foster is my maiden name and Marie is a combination of our mother’s names. She is my soulmate. 6. I am an awkward jellybean and I took the time to get in front of the camera instead of behind to show you my brave face... If I can do it, so can you! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Phew. Thank you for reading this far! 😂 If you’ve been waiting to schedule your session because you’re afraid of how you may look, don’t fret! That is totally normal and I’ll be there with you every step of the way!

Sometimes my engagement sessions turn into mini dance lessons 😅 💃🏼 I can’t help it... Over ten years of 5,6,7,8 and 123, 123, 123 dancing bleeds into everything I do. It sure leads to some wonderful moments with my couples. Bunch of cuties! #northerncaliforniaphotographer #sacramentoweddingphotographer #engagementinspiration #engagementinspo #engagementdress #weddingvendor #sunsetengagement #engagementgown #californiaengagement #pointreyesnationalseashore #pointreyes
