brielle mcclain bio picture

welcome.

When I was ten years old, I liked to run around my Los Angeles neighborhood with a disposable camera on a wildlife photography expedition (i.e. taking pictures of cats). While I've strayed away from cat photography and disposable cameras, that adventure and excitement has never left. I'm ecstatic to say that my camera and I still go on expeditions of our own -- sometimes in my own backyard and sometimes far away.


Born and raised primarily in Los Angeles with a wonderful stint in the Willamette Valley of Oregon. I am currently pursuing a BFA in photography at Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, CA. Available for work in Southern California, Oregon and abroad. 

{corvallis family photography} – the Smith kids

This post has been needing to happen for a while.

These fabulous kids belong to the fabulous Ali of Thistledown Photography. Ali is responsible for all of my wonderful bio pictures and in return I had a session with her kids. We got lost, we went to a Christmas tree farm (that’s how old this is!!!) and we laughed a lot…or rather, they laughed at me a lot. I’m sure they’ll confirm that I’m kind of a huge dork.
