About Briana Morrison Photography

Hi, I’m Briana—photographer, artist, animal lover, and devoted fan of a cozy afternoon. If you’re new here, welcome. I’m so glad you’re here.

I photograph weddings, families, and honest, artful moments of love. My work is rooted in storytelling, nostalgia, and the belief that your life is something to be treasured.

Outside of photography, you’ll usually find me with a book in one hand and a dog curled up at my feet. I’m deeply in love with my animals (yes, my cats are dramatic and my dogs are spoiled), and I spend most of my free time reading or making pottery.

My lifestyle is best described as casual but tasteful. I adore nice things—especially if they’re handmade, sustainably made, or secondhand. I’m a sucker for beautiful lighting, good design, and well-made clothes with a story behind them.

After the world slowed down in 2020, I discovered how much I craved a slower pace, and I’ve been living with intention ever since. I believe in savoring the little things, honoring the seasons, and creating a life that feels as beautiful as it looks.

If you’re someone who values meaning over trends and beauty in the everyday—I think we’ll get along just fine.

Joe had been planning this moment for months. Quietly encouraging Amanda to treat herself to manicures. Secretly hand-crafting a sign that read Mr. & Mrs. Hatzinikolis. Quietly orchestrating one of the most meaningful surprises of their lives.

Long Beach, Washington has always been a special place for them. A favorite coastal escape. So on a quiet day in the dunes, Amanda followed a familiar path—completely unaware of what was waiting for her.

Her parents had lovingly placed Joe’s handmade sign on the city’s post. Nearby, they left a bottle of champagne and a set of Amanda’s special wedding crystal—gifted to her years ago, waiting patiently for this very day.

That’s when Joe asked her to marry him.

I was there too, hiding in plain sight—just another beachgoer with a camera, quietly documenting the whole thing.

After the proposal, Joe surprised Amanda with dinner at The Pickled Fish and one more thoughtful twist: an extra day off work so they could soak it all in together before returning to real life.

It was such an honor to witness and preserve this milestone for them. These are the moments that become heirlooms—the kind you’ll look back on and feel all over again.

Let’s talk about value.

Wedding photography isn’t just a line item on your planning checklist—it’s an investment in how your story will live on.

The cake will be eaten. The dress carefully packed away. But your photographs are what remain—growing more meaningful over time as your memories deepen.

I don’t take that lightly. I believe in capturing your love with artful integrity, honoring your story in every frame, and turning those images into heirlooms.

If you’re planning a 2026 wedding and care deeply about the legacy you’re building, I’d love to talk about what I can create for you.

Let’s hold onto this season—just a little longer.

There’s something special about seeing your love story preserved in a tangible, lasting way. This black-and-white film photograph, taken on my vintage Rolleiflex, was captured with intention—one slow, meditative frame at a time. The way the light sparkles through the trees, the quiet intimacy of the moment—it all feels timeless.

Photographs aren’t just memories; they’re heirlooms. They deserve to live beyond a screen, to be seen and felt every day. A framed print transforms your space, grounding it in love and meaning.

If you’ve been waiting to print your images, consider this your sign. Let’s create something beautiful for your home.

Valentine’s Day is a beautiful reminder that love is everywhere—not just in the grand gestures, but in the quiet, everyday moments. The way your partner reaches for your hand. The laughter shared over morning coffee. The hugs that feel like home.

I feel so lucky to spend my days capturing love stories—on wedding days, in cozy homes, in golden fields, and in the little in-between moments that make life so special.

However you’re celebrating today—with a partner, with friends, or simply by loving yourself—I hope your heart feels full. 💛
