Hi!! I'm Brit. I am a New Jersey wedding and portrait photographer. Photography is by far my first love. We have a relationship that is constantly growing, learning, and becoming stronger. I love learning about others, creating images to last a lifetime, and capturing moments between you and your partner! Also, you can inquire on my website for more information such as pricing and galleries!

Britt was the most AMAZING photographer & person to work with for our wedding. Not only was she extremely organized & communicative but also helped immensely on the day of the wedding. She went above & beyond making sure my husband & I felt comfortable the entire time. It was 95 degrees & sunny on my wedding but Britt & Timmy managed to capture pictures throughout the entire day that look like a fairytale (even though we felt like we were melting).

Inspire Me Imagery 

5.0

Ocean, NJ
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,399

I started in photography much as everyone else did. What was once a hobby in 2002 quickly became a passion. I started out with a 35mm film set up and would hang out in the city capturing candid moments of people going about their day to day lives. For me, it was like stepping outside the world around me and documenting it like looking through a window into a world I was no longer part of. In 2008, when I myself got married, I realized that a wedding day is one of the most emotional moments for a couple. Not only for them but for the families involved as well! It was Oct. 31st, 2008 when I shot my first wedding. I haven't looked back since.

Inspire Me was great- they were super easy to work with. We wanted a photographer who was going to be flexible and not so stringent with timelines, and we still got every picture and moment captured that we wanted! They made us feel really comfortable and we absolutely couldn't have asked for anything better.

The reception felt intimate and joyful at the same time, with everyone celebrating the couple’s love. I smiled, cried, laughed, and felt my heart expand with happiness. It was impossible not to feel connected to their joy. Their first dance was ethereal, and the entire night seemed to shimmer with love.

Blossom and Bee were one of the approved vendors on our venue's list. It was an easy process working with Penny and her team. I was able to pin inspo pictures on a Pinterest board as well as share pictures of my dress, my husband's tux, and our wedding invitation suite. As a bride of Indian origin, I wanted bright spring florals that also complimented the industrial/French look of our venue. I was overwhelmed by the number of color combinations I was interested in and the team helped me narrow down to the best color scheme. Something to note is that you will need to provide bud vases and rent floral stands from B&B if that is something you want in your decor. Luckily my venue provided a moon gate that could be used for the ceremony, and the venue staff repurposed the florals from the ceremony to the sweetheart table.

In my spare time I love swimming, hiking, skiing, traveling with my family, writing and learning all kinds of stuff. I’m very curious about the world!

Awarded Best of Zola
Fen was wonderful to work with for out wedding on October 8th, 2023! From the very first virtual meeting all the way through the big day itself, she was so friendly and professional! On the day of our wedding she coordinated with our photographer to get video capturing the entire day from start to finish, sometimes from the same angles as our photographer and at other times different angles or multiple angles all at once! We opted to receive both the full-length format video as well as the short highlight summary, and they are both fantastic! From the drone shots of the venue in the introduction, to the wonderful B-roll video clips in the transitions, and overlaid music at times where it made sense, the videos we received are just so wonderfully put together and capture the events of the day perfectly! The highlight video struck a great balance of events throughout the day and was great to be able to post to our socials. We asked for a small change to the highlight video, and Fen was more than accommodating and had an updated version sent back out to us very quickly. And when we received and watched the full 3 hour edit, we felt transported right back to that day and like were able to completely re-live it. We are so happy with our choice to work with Fen, and overjoyed to have this special record of our big day for the rest of our lives. Overall we cannot say enough good things about Fen and her work, and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a videographer!

My fiancé and I took our engagement photos at Resorts Casino and we had the best experience! We chose Resorts specifically for the nostalgic charm that the casino and grounds offer. Nancy, the events manager, kindly tended to all of our questions and needs before and during the shoot. She made sure we were escorted by security as she guided us to all the best spots around the casino and the rest of the building to take photos. She walked us through a beautiful ballroom to get to the balcony with an amazing view of the boardwalk and the famous Resorts sign to get incredible pictures. Lastly we were able to shoot in the lovely classic theater that we didn't even know existed and was perfect for the theme of our photos. There are a variety of options to choose from whether you're planing a wedding, engagement party, bridal shower, bachelorette party (which we saw while stayed there) or just taking photos like us.

When i say you NEED Keyta I mean it!!! She went above and beyond to make my wedding day smooth and beautiful. When i was worried my sister (who’s pregnant) wouldn’t be able to bend down to fix my long train and cathedral length veil, Keyta offered to come to one of my dress fitting appts to look at my dress and veil so she’d be prepared to step in if she needed to. She stayed in constant contact with my vendors and ensured we were all on the same page in order to have a smooth successful day. As the day got closer i started to become overwhelmed. she immediately took on anything i needed help with (looked up clerks office and provided address and phone number for our marriage license, last minute recommendations like clear umbrellas, isle runners, extra tents, ect in case it rained). Her bride and groom checklist helped keep us on track and ensured we got everything done that we needed to. On the day of, she let me use her mirror that she used on her wedding day for my flat lay detail pictures. She came prepared with a curling iron for touch ups!! I expressed my vision of having a flower wall that I didn’t have time to coordinate and Keyta made it happen! Having her by my side made me feel so at ease and i couldn’t imagine my day without her!! I’m forever grateful for Keyta.

If you’re looking for videographer for your special day /event your search stops here! KB video is hands down the best. The owners are down to earth & super accommodating for all your special requests. KB re-edited our wedding video from 2021. Unfortunately , the video/ edit my husband and I received from the original company that we hired was unsatisfactory. I’ve had the raw-footage for years hoping to find a company I can trust in! KB video was willing to work with us knowing the unfortunate circumstances of our previous videos, and just wanted us happy! KB video took their time and were patient with us, for all our requests down to every detail! I will be using the company now moving forward in my future . They did an outstanding job & brought tears to our eyes! They made the perfect highlight of our big day , capturing beautiful memories we will forever have to look back on.

I'm Kaitlin Noel—a wife to Michael, mother to Nicholas and Ryan, and dog mom to our French Bulldog, Ellie. I’m a passionate photographer, traveler, and incurable romantic. When I’m not shooting weddings around the globe, you’ll find me in Cape May, shopping at my favorite local spots with a coffee in hand or walking on the beach. Family is everything to me and my clients are an extension of that. I could eat tacos daily, adore martinis, and decorate my home with a coastal chic inspiration. As an international photographer, I have the pleasure of traveling and experiencing new coastal towns and culters which brings me so much joy!

We had such an amazing experience working with our photography team! Kaitlin was our main point of contact throughout the entire planning process, and she was an absolute dream to work with. She was always so easy to communicate with, incredibly responsive, and consistently brought the energy and excitement that made us even more thrilled for our big day. The thoughtful gifts she sent us during the holidays leading up to the wedding were such a sweet and personal touch—we truly felt cared for every step of the way. On the day of the wedding at Icona Diamond Beach, we worked with two of Kaitlin’s associates, Brooke and Taylor, and they exceeded every expectation. They were efficient, fun, and made the entire photography process feel effortless. Not only did they keep us ahead of schedule all day, but they also captured every moment so beautifully—we’re obsessed with our photos! They gave us memories we’ll treasure for a lifetime. We can't recommend Kaitlin and her team enough. Whether you're looking for talent, professionalism, or just genuinely great people to have by your side, they deliver it all. An absolute highlight of our wedding!

Working with Mandy was an absolute dream! For my makeup trial, I gave her a reference photo and she copied it exactly. She took my very minimal comments from the trial and implemented them perfectly for the big day—I’ve never felt so beautiful! I love Mandy’s style because I’m not someone who wears makeup regularly, and she made sure I still felt like myself. She enhanced all my features in such a natural, effortless way. My makeup put stayed all night and looked fantastic in photos. Mandy was also incredibly professional and organized. She provided a detailed timeline for myself, my bridal party, mom and (now) mother-in-law for the wedding day, which was so helpful for coordinating with my hair artist and keeping everything running smoothly. She was always prompt and responsive via email. I can’t recommend Mandy enough!
