About
Meet Brittany bays - Fine Art Wedding Photographer
Hi, I’m Brittany
I believe photography is so much more than images—it’s storytelling. As a wedding photographer, I am honored to capture not just the moments you see but the emotions you feel. My goal is to create timeless, compelling imagery that reflects the unique connection you share with your partner, preserving memories that will only grow more meaningful with time.
At the heart of my work is a deep appreciation for connection and belonging. I believe every couple deserves to see themselves reflected in their wedding photos in a way that feels true to who they are. Photography is my way of celebrating those connections—capturing not only the beauty of your day but also the authenticity of your story. Every love story is unique, and it’s my mission to honor that with photos that are as heartfelt and meaningful as the moments they represent.
My approach to photography blends the elegance of art-directed portraits with the raw, unscripted moments that make your wedding day uniquely yours. This balance allows me to celebrate beauty and artistry while also capturing the real, sometimes imperfect moments that make your story deeply human. Together, these elements create a collection of images that feels both timeless and authentic—pretty but also real.
With over 15 years of experience in the wedding industry, I’ve been privileged to witness over 250 love stories unfold. Whether I’m capturing an intimate backyard ceremony or a grand destination celebration, I strive to make you feel at ease so you can be fully present while I take care of the details.
I call downtown Cincinnati home, where I live with my sweet dog, Louie. There’s something about the energy of the city—the historic architecture, the tucked-away cafés, the rhythm of everyday life—that inspires me creatively and personally.
When I’m not photographing weddings, you’ll often find me at the gym, sharing a glass of wine with friends, or drawing in my sketchbook. That quiet time with pencil and paper helps me slow down and reconnect with the artistry that first drew me to photography.
I hold a bachelor’s degree in Visual Communication with a focus in Fine Art from Northern Kentucky University, and I’ve spent the last decade refining my approach to storytelling, light, and composition. My background in visual art plays a foundational role in the work I create—images that are not only beautiful but deeply felt.
I know how much heart goes into planning your wedding, which is why I offer more than just photography. From timeline guidance to being a calm and grounding presence on the day itself, I’m here to help everything unfold seamlessly. Your wedding day is more than an event—it’s a reflection of your story and the beginning of something new. It deserves to be captured with care, intention, and artistry.
If my work resonates with you, I’d love to hear your vision and dream up something meaningful together.
