Marianne Brown Photography

Welcome to my blog page where I post new pics of amazing peeps, special life changing moments, and awesome places from my extravagant life adventure;) A little about myself: My identity - I am originally from SOUTH Georgia, I grew up on a small farm that is still home to me;) I love animals and open spaces, family and friends, art, travel, interesting people, coffee in the mornings, a good glass wine (or two;), flowers, bikes, mountains, a good thunderstorm, long walks on the beach- of course, and let's not forget … I am, in a minor way, obsessed with taking pictures;) I graduated from the University of Georgia with a degree in Photography. After college, I followed my feelings towards the romantic American west, where I am currently still exploring and soaking up amazing sights, people, and experiences in colorful Colorado! I feel grateful to have photography as a way to share all the beautiful places and people that I encounter on a daily basis. So please enjoy, and if you would like to contact me, do so from the info below. I would love to photograph your wedding, child, pet, or lonely beta fish, and p.s. wherever you are, my passport is always up to date;) ~Marianne p| 229.457.0975 e| mariannebrownphotography@gmail.com

Saint Simons Island ☀ Colorado ❘ Georgia ❘ Travel Photographer

After a week of springtime weather in Steamboat, I was just starting to get used to the idea of winter being over and enjoying warm weather and blue skies. But today it started snowing again-leaving me to daydream about a warm, lazy afternoon on the beach! These photographs were taken in fall on St. Simons Is., GA. The unusual tide and late afternoon glow is beautiful that time of year. This is one of my favorite places in to be!

Valerie & Bruce ☀ Colorado ❘ Georgia ❘ Portrait Photographer

This afternoon I got to combine work with play! I photographed Valerie Stafford and Bruce Caplowe, the designer and owner of Zing and Rumor Design in downtown Steamboat. Not only are they a very talented design team, but these two were also a blast to photograph! Here are a couple of my favs of the day!
