We were extremely lucky on weather as we had been rescheduling from a really cold and windy day. We were met with sunshine and 75 degrees. Its hard […]

What a wonderful spring night for a central Illinois family session. I am so thankful that I was able to work with the Houser family again.

As a kid, my family didn’t make a big deal out of Halloween in my house. Halloween is my dad’s birthday and we lived in the country from age 8 on, so trick or treating wasn’t something we really did. But, as a mom- I LIVE for this stuff. I am truly meant to be […]

HOW DID I NOT BLOG THIS SESSION FOUR MONTHS AGO?! This darling family of mine is a repeat client. “But Brenda, you don’t even live in Charleston anymore?” I KNOW- but I sure wish I did! Kara was a client of mine while we were stationed in Colorado. She was a referral from another family […]

One day Kevin came home from work and said “hey I have someone who may be reaching out to you for photos. His wife is pregnant.” “Okay….so am I doing maternity? Newborn, what?” “I don’t know babe, I just gave him your website and he said he would have his wife reach out.” Ah, men. […]

Meet Bethany & Joe! These two were referred to me from a previous client (who was recently featured on this blog)! Whenever a previous client refers someone to me, I do a happy dance! It means I have previously made a connection and gave a wonderful experience. I was informed that these two would be […]

You guys may remember my lifestyle session with the Rovner Family in May. This time, Sarah wanted a family session! My schedule was so busy, but of course I had to see this sweet family again. I absolutely adore this family. They are so funny and generous, and go with the flow. We met at […]

It is an illusion that photos are made with the camera...they are made with the eye, heart & head."
-Henri Cartier- Bresson
Hi! I am Brenda, the woman behind the camera. I will excitedly wave to you and shout "hey!" as soon as we meet, and I will act like we have been friends forever. I will talk and laugh with you through the duration. Your semi-reluctant photo companion will even tell you at the end of our session that is wasn't so bad after all! I started Brenda Price Photography in 2018 after my second daughter was born. Photography has been a lifelong love of mine, but it took until I saw firsthand how fleeting the moments were that I truly worked to learn what I loved. I always begged my parents for disposable cameras as a kid. I filled those camera rolls in about 5 minutes of all of my treasured things. I always took photos of my friends, pets, flowers, siblings- whoever would let me! Now as I have a family of my own, I take endless portraits of them.
I love to take portraits of the big moments and the small moments. I have a tendency of grabbing photos of moments you may not have noticed were happening. I love to tell a story in my portraits. A love story. YOUR love story. No matter who it is with, how many people are involved, it is all worth documenting. Time does go by so fast and it is worth an investment in quality portraits, because before long- photos are all that will remain of a chapter of your life. You will not be a jittery, emotional bride again. Pregnancy only lasts nine months, and a newborn changes in a blink of an eye. Your kids will loose teeth, skin knees and grow to your height in no time. Your parents will age and leave you. You will never regret having photos of your loved ones and beautiful memories captured.
