Rochester NY Photographer & nature lover

Hey, I'm Britten!

Photography is my way of serving the world by preserving legacies in a beautiful & meaningful way. 

I like to work with people who know it's not about content for social media, even though you may want the world to see! Who know it's not just about getting pampered and dolled up for a day, even though that's fun too! 

It's about documenting life because it's precious and fleeting. It's about knowing that future generations will look at these photos one day when all they really need is to remember you exactly the way you were.






Photography is a bridge to your past, your present, and to the future.

I first picked up a camera to share Mother Nature's beauty from my eyes. My absolute favorite way to spend a day is being fully present in a beautiful place in nature.

My background is in environmental science & policy and I spent more than a decade working on campaigns across the U.S. to fight environmental injustice. I believe deeply in grassroots power love to geek out on social movement theory and politics. 

These days, life is much slower. When I don't have a camera in my hand, you'll find me happily at home with my partner Chris and our crazy little cat Ollie. We just bought our dream home with 2 acres near Rochester, New York. We're in the process of turning this little slice-of-heaven into organic gardening paradise and pollinator habitat. We'll be growing vegetables, medicinal herbs, native and cut flowers and eventually raising chickens. This is what protecting the planet looks like for me in this season of life and it feels very tangible.

If you care to follow along on Instagram (@brittennicole) you'll see a LOT of pictures of flowers (and deer and cats). 

truths I consider universal:

black lives matter.
no human is illegal.
healthcare is a human right.
love is love.
mother nature is sacred.

"Britten is a natural talent with an artist's eye. She can see more in a single frame than seems evident and use the camera as a painter uses a brush to show the world the wonder that is apparent to her. Enjoy this visual journey with her and experience beauty in what you mistakenly thought was mundane...take a second look at the world through Britten's eyes! I promise, you will not be disappointed."

The modern word "Nature" is derived from the Latin word Natura. In ancient times, Natura literally meant "Birth" 

happening or developing naturally over time, not forced or planned by anyone; constituting an integral part of a whole; fundamental; simple
