Brittany Barclay Photography
I’m Brittany and the owner of Brittany Barclay Photography. I have been photographing weddings for over 15 years and love every moment. I am highly organized, so I run my business like a well-oiled machine. My clients say I’m more than a photographer to them and that I will do anything to help make the wedding day perfect. I have a servant heart and I love serving clients that are down-to-earth, family oriented, and couples that want to have fun! A wedding day goes by so fast and all you have left are the memories captured by your photographer. I want my clients to look at their images and feel like they are reliving their day over again. I want to capture those family members that may not be around much longer or those special people in your life that you adore. I want your photos to tell a story but also show love. I will be an additional bridesmaid full of wedding knowledge to help in any way I can, or I can be in the background snapping moments. Either way, I will do it all to ensure your getting quality images to last a lifetime.
A little more about me: I’ve been married since 2006 and I have two boys. I’m very involved at their school.

I love having those moments of my family and getting to share that with couples on the best days of their lives is even more special. I’ve been a photographer for over 15 years and I never get tired of capturing weddings.

My photography style is bright, true-to-color, fun, organic, timeless. I want my clients to have images that aren’t heavily filtered or photoshopped. I want you to see your day through my eyes and it be natural.

l strive to make everyone feel comfortable. I make sessions fun and natural and keep conversation going to help relax everyone.

What is your favorite part of the wedding day and why?
My favorite part of the wedding day is when the groom sees his bride for the first time. I love watching and capturing the reaction. This moment is all the bride waits for. She wants to she him smile or tear up at how beautiful she looks. This is the best part of the wedding day.
