About Brooke Alaina Photography

Brooke Alaina Photography

I've been photographing weddings now for over a decade, and if I'm being totally honest with you, I had expected to burn out on this gig years ago. Instead, here I am still falling more deeply in love with it -- with those hugs and big laughs and tears and nervous jitters, and all the big and little moments that make up your days. Every second of it feels so special to me, and the fact that I get to capture that will never cease to blow my mind and fill me with gratitude.

I am a documentary wedding photographer, which simply means that I aim/hope to photograph your day as it truly happens. We'll make sure the classic portraits happen too, but for the most part, the goal is for you to simply enjoy your day together while I'm there capturing it.

    Thoughtful, Creative, Remarkable Photographer!

    Brooke was not only lovely, the photos we have received as a sneak peek are enough to say that she's incredibly talented at documenting weddings! She gave us a thorough questionnaire so she could tailor our day to what we were looking for in photos. Personally, I asked for basic coverage for posed shots, a slight preference on candid shots, and that she use her own judgement on what would make the best pictures documenting the night (and I requested she have fun with it, as much as possible!) She absolutely delivered and made us feel comfortable the whole time. She was a pleasure to have around and a fantastic photographer--we highly recommend!

    Highly Recommend for both candid and portrait!

    I highly recommend Brooke! She photographed our wedding in May of this year and did an outstanding job. I was looking for someone who could do both portraits and capture candid moments, and Brooke definitely delivered. She was thorough and thoughtful from our initial conversations and made us feel at ease on the day of. During our initial phone calls and emails, she provided us with a detailed guide of what to expect and if we had any preferences in the type of photographs we were looking for. We asked a lot of her given the large number of family photos, but she was able to do it all with ease. She has a great eye for capturing candid shots and also able to give directions to us to capture the perfect image. If you are looking for a photographer that will capture the joyful emotions on your day, you should hire Brooke! Our families are ecstatic with the photos and cannot stop talking about them.

    We Brooke

    We absolutely loved Brooke!! She was able to efficiently get people where they needed to be on the day of. Her documentary style makes you feel at ease and you’ll still get those perfectly posed moments too. She was so helpful placing accessories and flowers for the perfect shot. As the bride, i felt less stressed when Brooke took ahold of the day. We can’t thank her enough!!
