Above and beyond

Brooke went above and beyond. Helped bustle my dress, fixed my eyelashes, rallied family, and followed our party bus around town for hours. She was so professional and not afraid to get involved. Plus the photos and free flash drive came all nice and branded with a hand written note. I send all my friends her way

Knowledgeable, worth every penny, memorable photos

How do I even begin? Brooke, someone I met at SVSU and through work, gave me and my family and friends the photos we will always cherish. I met with Brooke with my now husband, Seth, and knew we wanted her to be our wedding photographer. She was very professional, did her research, and was able to accommodate and capture the moments we wanted! Brooke communicated well with us since day one through text, email, and Zoom calls. For the wedding day, she knew just what to do and I felt as ease (because of all the hard work she did beforehand)! She dressed professionally and fit for the occasion. Also, kudos to her helping me get dressed, haha! That was a free bonus, I suppose! I am happy to support someone I once worked with and get to see grow more each year in her photography career. Thank you, again, Brooke for all you did for us!

All our love and gratitude,
Seth & Audrey Bearden

Smooth and Beautiful

My son hired Brooke to photograph our courthouse wedding. Even with a venue that wasn't perfect, she made the photos look stunning. We suggested a nearby park and within 15 minutes we had gotten all the family and couple photos we dreamed of. Recommend Be Photographed to friends, family, and strangers.

Hello, I am Brooke! I am the proud owner of Be Photographed. Working hard behind the camera to make your day perfect is my specialty. Besides photography I love collecting Christmas decorations, learning gluten-free baking, and spoiling my fur child. I am excited to meet and learn more about you!

Hi, I am Morgan and I help assist Brooke here at Be Photographed. I met Brooke when we both worked for the same newspaper company. It's crazy to see the growth between the two of us and how we enjoy wedding photography now. You can catch me with a cool, new makeup look everyday, or cuddling at home with my cat.
