Meet Your Photographer

Bio

Hello!

My name is Brandie McMinn.

I have been married for 27 1/2 years to my high school sweetheart. I am a mother to two grown children who are simply amazing! I also have four adorable grandbabies, they are the light of my life! I also have a fur baby puppy dog whom I adore.

I am very fun, adventurous, and very down-to-earth. I love walking in the rain, all things Disney and Princess., hiking, biking, horseback riding, paddle boarding, and I absolutely love everything about the beach.

I started photography because when I was looking back through my photo albums I saw that I do have a lot of photos but I am in only a handful of them and my husband is in even less than me. I really wish I had photos that documented how amazing our lives were when my kids were growing up. Sure, I have memories but as we all know as we get older our memories start to fade. I think it is extremely important to not only have amazing photos but everyone in your family needs to be in them as well. It's fun to walk down memory lane but if you’re missing family members in photos it can be devastating.

Our lives are a unique storybook just waiting to have the pages filled in. You are the author and the star of your own story. You can make it as adventurous, quirky, or intimate as you want. My goal is to capture your most valuable memories. Memories that will live on in your heart forever.

I enjoy making a connection with my clients. I work hard to make sure your photos are special. Therefore, I tailor each session specifically to each client. I work with you and your vision to ensure that you get exactly what you are wanting.

Even though I am based in Odenton Maryland My husband and I travel around for engagements and weddings. We go anywhere your heart desires.

I offer maternity, birth, fresh 48, newborns, cake smash, family, and pet photos. As well as, engagement and wedding photos. Sessions can be in my studio, in your home, or on location.

I absolutely love documenting the lives of others. I think it is extremely important to preserve your memories. Your one-of-a-kind photos will be an heirloom piece that will ultimately be passed down for generations to come.
