  • "I mean WOW! I was completely empowered and made to feel comfortable every step of the way. We chit chatted while I did my makeup and I felt like I made a genuine connection. When it came time for photos, I had no nerves. I was in good hands. You won’t be sorry for booking!" - Sarah

  • “OMG! We love them so much! Thank you for the extras with all of us, they're adorable. Plus the bunny!! lol This whole process has been amazing. I know the location was a little meh but the photos turned out great. You really put Cy at ease and, because of that, you were able to capture who she truly is at heart. I'm so very grateful for that. I will definitely be recommending you to friends and family and maybe you'll hear from me again in two years when my other daughter graduates!” - Jenny (Cy’s mom)

  • “I have worked with Safe Space Photo multiple times since I moved to Sacramento. I wanted to work with someone who also identified as LGBTQ+ and who wouldn’t judge me due to my intersecting identities. Being a queer and transgender person, I sometimes run into the issue of folks being awkward, not knowing how to talk with me , or not wanting to work with me due to who I am. Britney made me feel comfortable for someone who doesn’t model and was really able to help me feel super comfortable to do photography.” - Skylar

  • "We had so much fun with this!! We love the pictures, thank you so much!" - Sam & Hailey

  • “I just got the photos and I can’t stop smiling! Thank you so much. You did a great job, I’m so happy. - Jewel

  • “Britney was superb to work with! In the first interaction, she was communicative, transparent, professional and easygoing! The shoot was such a fun experience and the photos came out great! It really made me step outside of my comfort zone but she was super accommodating and understanding. Also, big bonus that she is LGBTQ. Community is important. I would definitely recommend booking her for any occasion or even a solo photoshoot.” - Crystal

  • "I had so much fun being part of your Pride shoot. You both are so comfortable to be around. I look forward to more shoots." - Alvin

    "Brit is not only an incredibly talented photographer, but also knows how to work with her clients. I really appreciate how responsive they were through the entire process which was about 1 yr from initial to shoot day. I am grateful to found a queer photographer who understood why I wanted to take this pictures for myself." - Leo
