Hi there!!!


I'M BRI, YOUR GO-TO PHOTOGRAPHER! I'M THRILLED TO SHARE A BIT ABOUT MY JOURNEY WITH YOU. BEFORE DIVING HEADFIRST INTO PHOTOGRAPHY, I HAD SOME PRETTY COOL GIGS – I TWIRLED AS A PROFESSIONAL BALLERINA, CHEERED ON THE TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS AS AN NFL CHEERLEADER, AND EVEN DANCED AND DID AERIALS FOR NORWEGIAN CRUISE LINES, EXPLORING THE WORLD FOR A SOLID 5 YEARS. TALK ABOUT A WHIRLWIND ADVENTURE, RIGHT?

LIFE TOOK AN AMAZING TURN WHEN I BECAME A MOM DURING THE COVID SHUTDOWN, AND THAT'S WHEN MY PASSION FOR PHOTOGRAPHY REALLY BLOSSOMED. GROWING UP IN A CREATIVE FAMILY SURROUNDED BY ART, MUSIC, AND DANCE, IT WAS ONLY NATURAL THAT I'D FIND MY WAY TO CAPTURING MOMENTS BEHIND THE LENS.

WITH MY EXTENSIVE PROFESSIONAL DANCE BACKGROUND, I'VE HONED A SKILL FOR DIRECTING YOU TO LOOK YOUR BEST WITHOUT IT FEELING FORCED. SO, NO NEED TO STRESS ABOUT POSES OR HOW YOU'RE LOOKING – I'VE GOT YOU COVERED!AND LET'S TALK ABOUT EDITING – I'M A PHOTOSHOP GURU AND ACTUALLY ENJOY THE PROCESS. THAT MEANS YOU'LL GET THE HIGHEST QUALITY IMAGES THAT REALLY CAPTURE THE MAGIC OF THE MOMENT. I LOVE COLLABORATING WITH MY CLIENTS TO ACHIEVE THEIR GOALS, BOTH DURING THE SESSION AND THROUGHOUT THE EDITING PROCESS.CAN'T WAIT TO CONNECT AND CREATE SOME AMAZING MEMORIES WITH YOU! SO, WHAT'S YOUR STORY?

Brianna is the absolute best!

I thanked my lucky stars that I was able to book Bri for our vow renewal in December 2019. She is a rockstar and a total professional. She captured our special event beautifully and was a total breeze and joy to work with. Out photos turned out beautifully and I am so thankful to Bri for all her amazing work and talent!

Never received photos

Never never never use Bri Watkins as your photographer!!! I was excited to book Bri in February 2025 for a pregnancy announcement shoot & video. Unfortunately, right after our scheduled shoot Bri was involved in a bad car accident. My husband and I were very understanding to the fact that she needed to take time heal and recover before returning to work. In May, Bri appeared to be back at work and posting on social media. Come September, I still had not heard from Bri about our shoot or received any photos except for the few sneak peeks she had sent right after our shoot. I waited an entire 6 months to reach out to Bri and inquire about my photos & video I paid her $400 for. I sent her a kind text acknowledging her accident and inquired about my photos. I did not hear anything back from Bri despite her posting on social media. I texted Bri again one week later requesting a refund since I hadn’t received my product or any communication from her. This time she did respond and let me know she’d check on my photos and get back to me. 10 days later with no more communication from Bri, I texted her again and asked for a refund. AGAIN, Bri did not respond. I waited another week and texted Bri yet again to vent my frustrations of her lack of communication, not providing the service I paid for, and explained I felt my only option was to file a claim with small claims court. Bri responded and was extremely rude telling me she would not be issuing a refund and that I shouldn’t be taking her to small claims over a mini session. Bri did end up refunding $75 as “lost damage” for not providing the video that she claims was a complimentary add on even though the session I booked was a mini session and video add on for $400 which is exactly how it’s advertised on her website. She also tried to say that the few sneak peaks she provided were all the photos despite the fact that she stated she would check on the rest of my photos. Moral of the story is Bri DOES NOT communicate. Bri DID NOT provide the product I paid her for. Please do not use Bri for your shoots. There are plenty of other talented photographers in the Tampa Bay Area.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
