Celebrate your life as it is now

Future you says thanks

Howdy there! I’m Briana Woods, the photographer.

I’m as passionate about designing edgy, dreamy, editorial photoshoots as I am about capturing raw, honest portraits. Also, I don’t usually say howdy.

It’s Your Love Story

And I want tell it with you. I’m not just talking romantic love, either. I’m taking familial love. I’m talking love of one’s art or avocation. I’m talking a love of celebrating what our lives are like in the here and now.

Do you want something a bit different? Me, too.

Your place to shine

Being photographed can be uncomfortable. (Where do your hands go, amiright?) I’m here to guide you to bring out your realest, bestest self…and to make fart jokes to break the tension.

Guilty of loving broody portraits 

It’s fine. I used to be 60% goth.

About Me

I’ve been a shutter bug all of my life and began learning photography in earnest in 2020. Guess I just wasn’t cut out to make sourdough bread, folks.

I live near downtown Raleigh with my husband. You can find me taking walks with my camera on foggy mornings or meeting my friends at my favorite Korean BBQ spot.

My favorite photoshoot is the one that challenges me. If you don’t see it in my portfolio, it just means I haven’t gotten to do it yet.

You ready?
