Our style is rooted in creative wedding photojournalism, influenced by art and lighting design to tell compelling stories through imagery. We are committed to keeping it real because we want to document each wedding celebration as it really unfolded and to visually show how it felt to be there. We don’t stage moments or alter our surroundings, everything is real and shot with a keen eye for composition that reveals the essence of the atmosphere or portrays a mood, whether romantic, fun, quirky, or emotional.
Our couples-first approach is integral to our style and overall brand. The strong bond of trust we establish with each of our couples from the start allows them to “Bee Two Sweet”: to be completely authentic in expressing their love and connection. We know we bear an awesome responsibility to thoughtfully and meaningfully represent each couple, as we create what will become a legacy or family heirloom of special memories that are unique to them personally.
We work to establish a comfort level that will allow our couples to share their personalities and quirks, so their images show the full range of their distinctive and extraordinary connection. We are also sensitive to poses that will best complement or enhance the physical attributes of our couples. We are always searching for those moments between moments, and different angles to help us create an artistic and unexpected perspective.
Weddings are celebrations that encompass love in all its forms, including the joining of new families and friends. This is why we also work with our couples to make sure we capture special contemporary portraits, large and small.

Best day ever
Choosing BeeTwoSweet was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the first phone conversation to the engagement session, Brittany put us at ease with her professionalism and attention to detail.
I have never liked having my picture taken and was nervous for our engagement session, but Brittany and Johnny made us feel like we were having a fun photoshoot with old friends. They allowed us to shine as a couple with minimal, but expert direction.
Their creativity knows no bounds as they can turn the most ordinary settings into something magical.
During the uncertainty of the Covid-19 Pandemic, Brittany continued to rise above and beyond to provide us with photos from our seven person ceremony. While we were unable to celebrate our wedding day in the way we had planned, BeeTwoSweet provided us with the incredible opportunity to share the joy and excitement of our wedding with family and friends far away.
We love them for the unexpected and candid moments they captured and look forward to working with them for our Marriage Blessing and reception in the Fall.

Brittany was so easy to work with and helped me surprise my now fiance at the Kennedy Center. She even was able to move another shoot to accommodate my specific date. Her energy and enthusiasm is very genuine. Her photos are amazing and we were blessed to have her there to capture the moments before and after the proposal. Her tips were perfect, but she also just let us be ourselves. For example I remember her telling me to stand up more straight for one shot and that photo is one of my favorites. We can't wait to hopefully work with her again!
