An East Bay photographer capturing authentic wedding, elopement, and family moments across California.


Hi, I’m Brenna!

Based in the East Bay Area of California, I am a photographer with a firm belief that the most meaningful moments are the ones shared between people.


My journey with photography began in the midst of my old church back in Rancho Santa Fe, where I spent much time capturing worship, community, and the spirit of togetherness.

That early spark led me into the world of concert photography, and from there, I explored graduation ceremonies, product shoots for clothing brands, and more.


Each experience shaped me—but something deeper kept calling.


Over time, I realized what I loved most wasn’t just the image itself—it was the connection behind it.

The look between two people who know each other’s hearts, the laughter shared when no one’s watching... That’s when I knew I wanted to build something of my own—a photography experience rooted in presence, emotion, and the beauty of simply being human together.

Thus, Brenna O Photo was created!


When I’m not behind the lens, I’m soaking in every moment with my incredible husband, RJ, and our two sweet children, Koa Ezekiel and Simi Belle. They’re my greatest joy and the heart behind everything I do.


Capturing your story, your people, your love—it’s more than a job to me. It’s a gift.

I feel so lucky every time someone invites me into their world, even for a moment.

Getting to know you, what moves you, what matters most—that’s where the magic lies.


I can't wait to meet you and to be able make something beautiful together.


With love,

B
