What it felt like, not just what it looked like.
Anyone can snap pretty photos. I capture the soul of your day — the shaky hands, the stupid-sweet glances, the cousin who went too hard at the open bar. Real moments, frozen in time. No stiff poses. No rinse-and-repeat filters.

Hi — I’m bre jaz
I shoot like your birth story is unforgettable.
I’m not here to just tick off a shot list. My job? To tell the unfiltered story of your day with edge, intention, and zero cheese. The kind of photos you’ll feel in your chest a decade from now.
If you're into moody edits, anti-cringe vibes, and photographers who actually make you feel seen — we might be a good match so please hit me up!
PS - I love love.
THE EXPERIENCE
What it’s like to work together
( 01 )
Before the day
We’ll chat, get aligned on vibes, and I’ll help you plan shots that feel like you, not a wedding magazine.
( 02 )
The day itself
I’m everywhere and nowhere — catching everything without being in your face.
( 03 )
After the confetti
You’ll get sneak peeks fast, and your full gallery ready to relive before the honeymoon high fades.
The proof is in the praise
"Looking through these photos was like experiencing our wedding all over again—including the parts we were too buzzed to remember. Worth every penny and the mild embarrassment."
— ANASTASIA + DMITRI
"We hired Stella because we wanted someone who wouldn't make us do the usual poses. We got a visual story so authentic our divorced parents are BOTH displaying the albums."
— EL + CASEY
"We ended up with more middle fingers, impromptu skinny dipping, and tearful drunk confessions than we expected. Basically, they captured our friend group perfectly."
— NIA + LUCA
Let’s make some magic
I only take on a limited number of births each year to make sure each one gets my full creative energy.
If you’re after honest, artistic, edge-of-your-seat photography — let’s talk.
