Weddings are so much more than two people saying “I do.” They’re about the blending of families, generations coming together, and creating an environment where everyone — from grandma to the flower girl — feels included, comfortable, and cared for.
In this heartfelt and insightful episode, I sit down with Brittany Janice Renault, a talented Big Island–based photographer known for her warm energy, natural connection with clients, and ability to capture intimate, joy-filled moments. Brittany shares her expert tips on how couples (and photographers!) can make the entire family feel relaxed and at ease on the wedding day — because when the family feels good, the photos feel magical.
Brittany is a Hawaii-based photographer who specializes in capturing the heart and soul of families, couples, and weddings. Known for her vibrant personality and exceptional eye for storytelling, Brittany doesn’t just take photos — she creates experiences that clients rave about.
⭐️ “Brittany is a phenomenal, exceptional, spectacular photographer. Most importantly, she has great energy! … We LOVED EVERY SINGLE IMAGE! I can’t wait to visit the Big Island again just to work with Brittany!” — Beryl, 2021Her thoughtful approach to every session — from planning to delivery — ensures each client feels seen, celebrated, and deeply connected to their images.
