I photographed my first wedding in 2011 and instantly knew I’d found something meaningful. Over the years, this passion has grown into something deeper—an understanding of just how powerful photographs can be.
I’m not simply documenting a wedding day; I’m preserving the laughter, the quiet glances, the fleeting in-between moments that will matter even more with time.
With over a decade of experience and a genuine love for people, I approach each celebration with care, creativity, and deep gratitude for the trust my couples place in me.
East Coast wedding photographer
meet Briana
Take it from someone who’s been on the other side of the lens—I didn’t hire a professional photographer for my own wedding. My husband and I made plenty of planning mistakes, but not having beautiful, meaningful photos to look back on? That’s the one regret that truly stayed with us.
That experience shapes everything I do now. I understand firsthand just how important this decision is—and I don’t take the responsibility lightly. Your wedding day is more than a timeline or a checklist; it’s the beginning of your forever, and it deserves to be remembered with care, clarity, and heart.
When you work with me, you’ll receive every image that tells your story beautifully. No holding back. No missed moments. Just the kind of photos you’ll still love decades from now.

She is so easy to work with and makes you feel incredibly comfortable and confident. She has taken my engagement photos, bridal portraits, and my wedding photos. I couldn’t love them more and recommend her to any and everyone!!

All I can say is BRIANA. FREAKIN. RITTENHOUSE. Briana is the kindest, funniest, most talented, all around wonderful photographer you could ask for. She worked her magic and I could not be happier with every single picture she got. Every single picture captures lifetime moments I’ll treasure forever. She goes above and beyond and kills it every time - I promise you won’t regret it! I will forever be grateful to Briana!

10/10 HIGHLY RECOMMEND BRIANA! She did both our engagement shoot and our wedding and was hands down the best option for the job. My husband and I are both awkward when it comes to photos and hate them, but she made us both feel so comfortable and told us exactly what to do. I could not have imagined our photos being so great when we got them back but she went above and beyond!
"We will 100% be using her for photos again!"
