A few things about me

I Love my couples!

Hello bride to be!  I couldn't be more EXCITED for you! I'd LOVE to chat about all the details and what’s to come. More importantly, I love to encourage you in your soon to be MARRIAGE, because that’s the best part of it all!  I absolutely love my couples and do my best to go above and beyond for them!

I Love Every second of what I do!

The more weddings I shoot, the more that I fall in love with this job! The joy the excitement, the whimsical detail, the hugs and tears...I love every second of it! I have one of the most important jobs in the photography industry I'm so honored to be apart of so many couples wedding days!

 Over The Past 8 Years, I’ve Come To Find That My Absolute Favorite Weddings To Date – From The Joyful Images To The Hilarious And Fun Memories Made With My Brides And Grooms – Have Been Ones Where...
I’ve Walked Away With Genuine Friendships That I’ve Developed With My Couples Through Being Their Wedding Photographer.

Ask about pricing and information can't wait to hear about your wedding!

Lets Chat

Things you will never have to worry about when you have me as your photographer..

 Feeling awkward or wondering what to do with your hands! So often I have couples tell us that they are so awkward in front of the camera, but by the end of their engagement session they are AMAZED by how natural they look! I know how to make anyone feel comfortable in front of our camera!

Not being able to enjoy your day because the photos are taking forever. I constantly receive compliments on how quickly I am able to get portraits done when I have full participation. Plenty of time left to party!

Waiting several months to see your photos. I always have sneak peeks ready for you within 24 hours, and the full gallery is ready no more than 6 weeks after the wedding day, but we strive to have them done sooner!

When my bride needs to get ahold of me she can text or email me anytime and I will respond right away.

Let’s Figure Out That Timeline! A Well-Thought-Out Timeline Is So Crucial To A Stress-Free Wedding Day! I Have Been To A Few Weddings In My Day, And While Each One Is Uniquely Different, There Are So Many Ways They Are The Same When It Comes To The Timeline. I Would Love To Help Ease Some Stress On You By Crafting A Timeline That Will Allow Plenty Of Margin For Unexpected Moments And Ample Time For Pictures! 

Wedding Day! It’s Here! We Can Hear The Bells Now! When I Arrive I Get Right To Work. I Love Telling The Whole Story Of Your Wedding Day, So I Start With The Pretty Details. You Don’t Have To Worry About A Thing! I Cover Everything! After Your Wedding, Keep A Watch Out For Your Beautiful Blog Feature. Then You Can Relive The Happiest Day Of Your Life Again On Your Honeymoon! 

Three To Six Weeks After Your Wedding Day, You Will Receive A Beautifully Crafted Online Gallery Filled To The Brim With The Story Of Your Big Day. And You Don’t Have To Keep It To Yourself! I Want You To Share It With Your Parents, Your Friends, Your Grandmas ! ;) Let Them Relive What A Beautiful Bride You Were, The Touching Father-Daughter Dance,  And Most Of All The Infinite Love The Two Of You Share. Then If You Have Opted For An Album (Which You Totally Should!) I Start That Process Too. 

I Hope That This Is Just The Beginning Of A Lifelong Friendship! I Love To Stay Connected With My Couples And Rejoice With Them As They Enter Into New Seasons Of Their Lives Together. For Me, It Goes So Much Further Than The Wedding Day. Of Course I Want Your Wedding To Be Lovely, But What I Really Desire Is For You To Have A Beautiful, Long-Lasting Marriage.

Brianna was AMAZING! Not only was she extremely professional, she also became a great friend. It was so fun and easy to work with her, she really just goes with whatever you want to do, and gives amazing advice. I 💯 WILL be using her for any family photos and holiday photos my husband and I have over the years! Thank you Brianna for the incredible photos!

Love notes from past couples

Brianna took photos for my wedding, and I couldn't be happier with her work. She captured everything beautifully. Additionally, she was wonderful to work with. She not only traveled over 700 miles to my wedding, but she also took my requests and had great ideas of her own. And I love how easy she makes sharing my photos with others. My friends and family have enjoyed them as much as I have.

 I highly recommend Brianna! She is a wonderful photographer! I was in contact with her for over a year prior to my wedding! She not only did our wedding photos, but she also did our engagement photos! She went out of her way to find locations for us to shoot at along with customizing a package to better suit our needs/wants. I 10/10 recommend her for your photography needs!

Love notes from past couples

Brianna and her husband were an absolute blast to work with! They are so kind and friendly. They went above and beyond to make sure every special moment was captured! We received our “sneak peeks” less than 24 hours after our wedding and our full video and edited pictures in just 3 weeks - which was way faster than we were expecting! Everything turned out so beautifully - I cannot recommend Brianna Helms Photography enough!

Love notes from past couples

Brianna Helms is by far the best wedding photographer you could get. She was so helpful, communicative, and understanding especially under the stressful circumstances of covid. We also got a beautiful wedding video from her which has been wonderful to show others who were not abel to make it to the wedding. Overall she was just perfect.

The Process

Step 1

Let's meet


Let’s meet! Whether via Skype or in person, I love connecting face to face and getting to know both of you! I especially love hearing all the romantic details of how you met, the proposal and how wedding plans are going! I also love to share about what your wedding could look like with me there documenting every moment.

The Process

Step 2

save your date


My prime dates book far in advance. I wish i could shoot two weddings at once, but i can’t! i really dislike having to turn away the perfect Bride and groom because I am booked. i always suggest booking your photographer simultaneously with your venue. Shoot a couple date options to me so i can best accommodate you. i just need a signed contract and a retainer fee and then i am locked in!

The Process

The Engagement Session


This is one of the best steps in the process! The engagement session provides such a fun, stress-free setting for us to have the best time and get to know one another. It’s like practice for the wedding day! We get to know each other both personally and photographically. Then we all feel like friends by the time the wedding rolls around.

step 3

The Process

Step 4 

The timeline


Let’s figure out that timeline! A well-thought-out timeline is so crucial to a stress-free wedding day! I have been to a few weddings in my day, and while each one is uniquely different, there are so many ways they are the same when it comes to the timeline. I would love to help ease some stress on you by crafting a timeline that will allow plenty of margin for unexpected moments and ample time for pictures!

The Process

Step 5 

The wedding


Wedding day! It’s here! We can hear the bells now! When I arrive I get right to work. I love telling the whole story of your wedding day, so I start with the pretty details. You don’t have to worry about a thing! I cover everything! After your wedding, keep a watch out for your beautiful blog feature. Then you can relive the happiest day of your life again on your honeymoon! 

The Process

Step 6 

Your Beautiful Gallery


three to Six weeks after your wedding day, you will receive a beautifully crafted online gallery filled to the brim with the story of your big day. And you don’t have to keep it to yourself! I want you to share it with your parents, your friends, your grandmas and your dog! ;) Let them relive what a beautiful bride you were, the touching father-daughter dance, when your uncle broke out some never-before-seen dance moves, and most of all the infinite love the two of you share. Then if you have opted for an album (which you totally should!) I start that process too. 

The Process

Step 7

let's stay friends


I hope that this is just the beginning of a lifelong friendship! I love to stay connected with my Couples and rejoice with them as they enter into new seasons of their lives together. For me, it goes so much further than the wedding day. Of course I want your wedding to be lovely, but what i really desire is for you to have a beautiful, long-lasting marriage. It’s easy to lose sight of this in the stressfulness of wedding planning. But investing in each other and your marriage is never a waste of time! So let’s stay connected and encourage one another on this sometimes hard, most of the time beautiful thing called marriage.

Now that you have your wedding venue and me as your photographer! Let me help you build the rest of your dream team! From your makeup artist, floral design to your music and even your cake, I have you covered!

Frequently asked quetions

Do we get all the pictures?

Absolutely! The only photos I do not deliver is mid-blinking, blurry or unflattering photos that I know you won’t have any desire to have.  My average delivery is 400-600 photos depending on how many hours are covered. But I do not put a cap on how many! I do not send you any RAW (un-edited) photos – you are hiring me for my specific editing style, so trust that they will be as beautiful as the ones you see on my website.

What is the delivery time?

I deliver engagement photos to you within 1 week so you can use them for your save the dates. I deliver wedding photos within 4 weeks so you can relive your day over and over again. I am pretty proud of this turn around, because who likes waiting?! Not me!

Do we get printing rights?

Yes! Of course! I offer an online gallery with full High-Resolution photos. No watermarks or logos will be on the photos. I give you a download code so you have full access to your pictures and you can share/print away.

I saw these cute pictures on pinterest, can we do those?

Of course we can! I love hearing about your ideas, and I try to fulfill all your photography dreams. Can I replica the lighting and background in those pictures..probably not. But the pose and angle I'll do my best to give you that same look and feeling.
