Madeline Sent on 10/21/2025Best Photographer Ever
Brittany is AMAZING!! She did both our engagement photos and our wedding photos. It was clear from the moment we met her that she was the best fit for us as a couple. She captures all of the special moments, all the laughs, all the tears. Her photos are filled with so much emotion. Brittany gives just enough posing advice to make you feel at ease while also allowing you to just be yourself. She is the best hype person and will be the photographer we choose for everything going forward. -

I cannot more highly recommend Brittany and her team! I first worked with her when my friends and I hired her to for a surprise photo shoot for a friend's bachelorette. We had the best time walking around Three Oaks, MI, taking photos in front of cute buildings and murals, in a public community garden, on the steps of our rental house with a giant Batman balloon, and more. Brittany had tunes playing the whole time to keep an upbeat tone, and the photos were ones that captured the joy and meaning of lifelong friendships.
My experience with her was so positive that when it was then time to find a photographer for my own wedding, she was my top choice. I was delighted to find out that even though she's based in Western, MI, she also does weddings in Chicagoland. We shared with her that our top priorities were taking pictures with our families, taking pictures as a couple in a way where we could just kind of walk around and interact with the environment and see what inspires us, and capturing the ceremony and reception. Brittany and her second photographer Liv more than delivered on our requests.
Our photo shoot with our families was incredibly fun! We walked to a nearby park, got our pre-planned pictures, and then were able to get some really precious candid pictures of my nephew, brother, and his wife going down the playground slide. We also got some incredibly cute pictures of my baby niece, sister, and brother-in-law. I'm not including the family pics here since they're pics with kids, but just know that they are amazing! Brittany and Liv did such a good job making funny noises to get our niece and nephew to laugh, and as a result, put the rest of us at ease as well.
Taking pictures as a couple was also really fun! I am not someone who naturally feels comfortable getting my photo taken, but I just had the best time! They made it a laid-back, and creative experience, where we could all kind of have ideas and try them out. At one point I was like "I like this lamp post, can we get a picture with it?" and they were like "yes!" My husband was also having a lot of pre-wedding jitters, and Liv was somehow magically able to put him at ease. A thing I didn't really think about before the wedding is that taking couples pictures is some of the only "alone" time you get on your wedding day. Brittany and Liv made this time really special, bringing positive energy, affirmation, and creativity, while creating space for us to treasure our time together as a couple.
Finally, they did an incredible job capturing the ceremony and reception. I can't even really put into words what they managed to do. They captured the small details- the facial expressions, the moments where everyone's laughing because of an intentional joke or an unintentional but charming mess up. They captured us as a couple, but also the community we were lucky enough to gather around us. There's something intangible about the magic you create at a wedding, that they somehow bottled it up and got it into these photos, which we will treasure for the rest of our lives. -

Stephanie Sent on 08/16/2025Kind, compassionate, professional and SO TALENTED!
Brittany, the brains and talent behind Paint My Mind, is a phenomenal human being. I am an amateur photographer so I knew going into planning my wedding that I was going to be picky about my photographer. Not to mention the fact that I am gay, and needed my vendors to be queer affirming. Brittany showed up for us in SPADES. From the very first meeting we clicked, and she was flexible and understanding about my neurodivergence and need for breaks, as well as my vision and what I wanted out of my photographs. She had us laughing and giggling - and even got a smile out of my Teenage Sons! Which if you are a mom of teen boys - you know is nearly impossible for pictures.
Our wedding day was magical, due largely in part to Brittany and her second shooter. From the moment they showed up, they were present, but also never in the way (unless I needed her to be, which she showed when she offered to kick someone out for me lol)
When I look back at my pictures I cannot remember even SEEING her or her partner during the ceremony, and yet she got AMAZING shots.
When it came time for our exciting Sneak Peak, I was expecting a few photos, maybe 10-15 at most. She blew me out of the water and gave me SO MUCH MORE, and I have so many to show my family and friends while we wait for the full album. The quality is astounding, the shots that she got of us, our family and friends, and the venue itself just leave me speechless.
I cannot recommend Brittany more, and she is worth every single penny! -

Grateful Gals!
We have only received the sneak peek from our wedding and my WIFE and I are obsessed! Brittany was so friendly and easy to work with and definitely knew what to do to capture our vibe! She is absolutely amazing and I will be singing her praises for the rest of my life as I share the pictures of our wedding day (and engagement) countless times! Good energy, excellent pictures- worth every penny plus some!

Brittany was beyond amazing on our wedding day. She is fun with lots of energy and she listened to everything that I wanted. My husband and I are terrible with being photographed and Brittany just accepted our awkward and ran with it.
Brittany's professionalism and attention to detail was inspiring and much appreciated. She kept me sane and on track the entire day and even advocated for me when I was too anxious to do so myself.
Our photos are stunning and far exceeded my expectations. The gallery is simple to access and share. I was happy to see that it is also organized by
the type of picture and time of day. It was also very easy to favorite and order any photos that I wanted.
Overall, the entire experience that we had with Paint My Mind Photography was absolutely outstanding and I am very excited to work with Brittany again. -

Book Brittany!
My (now husband!) and I are from Chicago and first met Brittany in 2021 at our best friend’s wedding in Michigan, and we loved her work so much, we knew right away we wanted to work with her whenever our big day happened! Fast forward two years, and Brittany + her assistant Alexa traveled to Chicago for us and captured every single special moment! She was so empathetic and knew when to give us moments in private, but also got creative and made us look stunning in not-so-glamourois Chicago alleyways. Thank you for giving us a lifetime of memories, Brittany! -

Ryan Sent on 08/22/2022Amazing. Just amazing.
Brittany is amazing and we couldn’t recommend her enough. For our engagement shoot she helped us select a beautiful location for outside shots, and then was super flexible about a second location (at our favorite brewery). When we had to postpone our wedding due to the pandemic, she was very responsive and understanding. When we finally got to celebrate our wedding, she brought such a fun energy to our day and our photos. Weather threw a lot of curveballs at our plans, and she helped us navigate them all in a way that brought some peace to the day. Her expertise in taking family portraits also came out when getting our young nephews to smile for the camera. The turnaround for our sneak peek was so quick, and the photos turned out absolutely stunning. We love her, and our only regret is that we’ve now moved out of state and won’t be able to have Brittany do all the photos for our life events. 100/10. -

If your trying to make a decision and “Paint my mind Photography” is in that list. Book it. Brittany is amazing not only at what she does but she’s one of the most understanding and sweetest people ever. She was such a joy to have at my wedding. -

Samantha Sent on 10/15/2020AMAZING to work with!
Working with Brittany was one of the highlights of our wedding experience! Her prices are incredibly competitive and the quality is very high. She made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and captured some pretty amazing shots.
We appreciated that the engagement shoot was included in our package as neither my husband or I had ever done any formal pictures before. Right away we knew we would like working with Brittany.
Like many 2020 couples, for safety reasons we made the difficult decision to cancel our large gathering in MI and move to a much smaller intimate gathering in WI. Given the location change, we expected to have to find a new photographer, but Brittany said no problem and came out with her (equally amazing) assistant Ashley.
Both photographers were awesome to work with, flexible, had so many ideas and were able to wrangle in our (rowdy) bridal party.
I couldn't recommend Brittany enough and look forward to working with her in the future for family shoots. -

Lindsay Sent on 01/20/2020The best there is
I will try to not make this a novel.
I am so incredibly BLESSED and FORTUNATE to have had Brittany as our wedding photographer. She capture my wife's and I's unique attributes and love PERFECTLY. The photos looked like US but... the best version possible.
She was there every step of the way. Helped me with our timing, helped with positioning, made everyone and family feel comfortable.
Her assistant Ashley was also phenomenal.
If you are in the selection process, this is WHO YOU NEED TO PICK.
They have my full confidence, support, and love.
THANK YOU BOTH SO MUCH

Out of this world
Brittany and Ashley photographed my wedding on 9.21.19 at Fredrik Meijer Gardens. Throughout my entire wedding journey, Brittany was responsive, professional, flexible, easy to work with, fun and just overall had great energy and passion for her work. She became more than just a vendor- I felt like we were friends by the end of our experience together. She offered me advice and help when portions of planning or the wedding itself were challenging. Everyone who attended my wedding noticed how awesome they were. QUALITY IS EXCEPTIONAL! -
