I cannot say enough amazing things about Beth Joy Photography! First of all, they are the sweetest couple you have ever met. Secondly, they went above and beyond when Beth got pregnant and was due right around our wedding date by securing a backup photographer. She still edited our photos as well. They came out absolutely stunning and were everything I dreamed of! Highly highly recommend :D
We hired Bethany and John for our Welcome Party & Disney Wedding in December 2022. They were both incredible!! They made us feel very comfortable and they worked so well together as a team to capture the most amazing moments from our wedding. We are SO happy with our wedding photos and would absolutely recommend using Beth Joy Photography!

Bethany and John are the absolute best photographers. My wedding date was September 3rd, 2022 and I swear it was the hottest day of the year, but they were absolute troopers and shot through the heat and knew exactly what to do to capture the perfect shots. They communicated effectively and efficiently throughout the process. They make you feel comfortable especially when you are not used to being behind the camera. When I got any photo back from them I was an absolute awe on how could the photos look like they were right out of a magazine or a movie, just perfection. Their photos are light and airy and classic. You will not regret making them your photographers. I will cherish my photos forever !
Beth and John were the most amazing photographers you could ask for. They made everyone feel so comfortable and we are truly obsessed with our photos. I cannot believe how quick we got our photos back. I would recommend them to every single person I meet!!
When we began wedding planning, finding a great photography team was at the top of our to-do list. From the first conversation with them, we knew they were exactly the people we were looking for. Rather than feeling like an interview or sales pitch, we got to know one another to ensure we were a good match for them and them for us. This really made as feel as though we were not just another client on the list, but rather a couple whose love story Beth and John were enthusiastic about capturing.
We had the unique experience of having Beth and John capture our engagement shoot over 2,200 miles away in Arches National Park, Utah. Let us start by saying that Beth and John are absolute LEGENDS as they hiked in 30 degree weather through Arches National Park to shoot us at 6AM for the ultimate sunrise photos. They were even more ready to adventure than we were AND the photos came out * S T U N N I N G *. They directed us every step of the way and helped us feel comfortable in front of the camera, even despite the glares of some grumpy morning tourists.
Fast forward one year to our wedding, and Beth and John came through once again like no one else could--with of course, the beautiful photos, but also the preparedness and professionalism that is so necessary on your wedding day. From getting ready photos to family group photos to our golden hour photos, they captured every photo we could've asked for & more. They went above and beyond! For example, Beth and John scoured our hotel grounds to find the most cinematic angle of the Downtown St. Pete skyline for the backdrop of our first look. They have a great eye and are true artists. They jumped from towering natural landscapes to downtown cityscapes without missing a beat, capturing the beauty of the diverse settings we requested.
As our wedding day progressed, the timeline prepared by Beth and John was lifesaving. If we were ever off-schedule, we weren't made aware of it as Beth and John practiced such professionalism that prevented us from experiencing any stress on our big day. They made sure to capture all of our intimate moments without distracting from the emotion of the day.
Bottom line is Beth and John were such a critical part of our engagement and our wedding. When looking for a photographer, we wanted someone who made us feel comfortable (kissing in public can be strange), guided us for the best shots, and captured the raw emotion of our relationship. Beth and John have mastered these skills, and have all the best qualities that you hope to surround yourself with on your wedding day--patience, enthusiasm, and organization. We couldn't be more thankful for their kindness, professionalism, and artistry. We know we will be bragging about them for years to come and showing their pictures to our grandchildren someday.
I can’t even put into words how thankful I am for Bethany and John. They do such amazing work and captured our day perfectly. From the very first call we had with them I knew they were going to be great. They are so organized!!! They helped us figure out our engagement photos and even gave ideas on what to wear. They helped us with our wedding day timeline and made sure to fit in all of the photos (and more!) that we wanted. They made us feel so comfortable. Multiple guests reached out to us to tell us how great they thought our photographers were - even before we got any photos back! We absolutely LOVE everything about our experience with Bethany and John!
We could not be happier that we used Bethjoyphotography for our wedding and we ngagwment photos. We were so blown away by their talent and professionalism. Our pictures were absolutely STUNNING! Beth and Hohn captured our day so perfectly. Everyone we show our pictures to immediately comment on how impressed they are with their quality and lighting.
To say Beth and John were the best wedding and engagement photographers in the world would be the understatement on the century. I cannot express how much we loved working with them.
Beyond being incredibly talented and easy to work with, they are also some of the kindest people we have ever met. My husband and I wish they lived closer to us because we honestly would love to be best friends with them.
The photos speak for themselves- they are dreamy, romantic, and authentic. We loved every second of working with Beth Joy, and they were the easiest and most professional vendors of our entire wedding. Thank you so much to Beth and John for capturing our love and our wedding perfectly!
I’m so glad we chose Bethany and John to photograph our wedding! They are incredibly talented photographers and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. All of our photos are absolutely gorgeous and I wish we had more walls in our house to hang them all up! To top it all off, they are genuinely some of the nicest people you will meet. It was like having close friends photograph our wedding! I cannot recommend them enough!!
They took the most amazing and beautiful photos of our wedding! The photographer was so sweet and really listened to our ideas and was very eager to help us see our ideas to fruition. She went out of her way to bring along her own props to help make our photos look more magical like a pretty ring box and things like that for our detail photos. She was also very on top of things and made sure to get all of the photographs we wanted. I absolutely recommend them. If you want magical wedding photos, you should definitely book Beth Joy Photography!
PERFECTION. Not only do Bethany and John take the most beautiful photos, but they are also two of the most kind and likable people you will ever meet. I can’t put into words how thrilled I am with them and how thankful I am for the photos that they gave us (how many photos are too many to hang up in your house? I’m about to find out). Not to mention, they were also incredibly helpful and generous when we had to postpone our wedding due to covid. Book them ASAP- it’s the best decision you’ll make for your wedding!
This dynamic duo is what you NEED & WANT for your wedding day. Bethany and John captured every emotion we all felt on our wedding day. You can feel the disney magic within their photos. They make you feel like superstar celebrities and go over and beyond for you. We hold a very special place in our hearts for Bethany and John.
Beth is AMAZING!! We booked an engagement session with her while we were on vacation in Florida and she was great to communicate with, so fun to get to know, and made us feel so comfortable during our session. We got our pictures in just a week and were incredibly happy with them! Can't recommend her enough!
If you are looking for a wedding photographer, look no further! We were so impressed with Bethany, John, and the amazing work they do. From the start, they made the planning process so easy and answered any and all questions we had. Our engagement session was so much fun and the perfect prep for our big day. They truly make you feel so comfortable! We ended up having to change our wedding venue one month before our date due to covid restrictions and they made the transition so seamless (Bethany even helped me create a new wedding timeline last minute!) Our photos came back even better than we could have imagined. Highly recommend using Beth Joy Photography for your big day!
We genuinely enjoyed sharing our special day with Bethany and John! I have only great things to say about them. They are amazing photographers!!!!! They captured the wedding in the most beautiful way, and it was more than what we could have ever asked for. On top of this, they are the most pleasant guests, they go out of their way to help and when they're with you in the early parts of wedding prep, they feel like family who just mean to help out and share your goal of making the day your most special one yet. Thank you guys! We're grateful we gained two wonderful friends (who are pretty darn good at what they do) when we booked them as our wedding photographers.
Beth Joy Photography were AMAZING! Extremely professional but personable. They made the photo shoot a very fun experience! I would highly recommend them and plan on using them for any professional photos in the future
If you’re still searching for a photographer, you should stop now!! Beth & John are an absolute dream. Not only are they the sweetest people ever, they take the most beautiful photos and truly want everything to be perfect for you on your big day. We had our engagement shoot with them as well as our wedding photos in October 2020. We are more than thrilled with our photos. They don’t just take a picture- they really capture the moment and have the most beautiful way of doing it. They make you feel so comfortable, help you break though any awkwardness you may feel, and are totally open to taking any poses/doing any ideas you may have. They are also open to traveling which is amazing!! We truly love Beth & John and consider them friends now. You will not be disappointed with them!!
BOOK THEM! RIGHT NOW! We searched through so many photographers who were all talented but we wanted someone that could capture a moment - a memory - not just “a picture”. To where you can feel the photos and the love that is in them. As soon as i saw Beth Joy it was it for me. Not only are they THE most talented, their photos are absolutely stunning and speak for themself but they are such amazing people and made us feel SO comfortable which was huge for me, it genuinely feels like friends hanging out. Best decision we made by far for our big day!
We Absolutely love Beth and John!! Not only have they done our wedding, by my sisters, our friends, and my brother-in-laws sisters! We recommend them to everyone we know, there isn't a better team out there. Plus with Covid they were super accommodating! 100/10 would recommend.
Beth Joy Photography is absolutely amazing!!! Beth and John were so organized and enthusiastic leading up to our big day. They captured every single moment beautifully and we could not be more thrilled with the final product. They are a truly talented team and all our friends and family could not stop raving about our photos. 10/10 recommend!!!
We can't imagine our wedding without Beth and John! We ended up having to plan four weddings and with each new date, we first checked that our parents could make it, and then our next call was to Beth and John. With all the craziness of 2020, they were right by our side (even sending a gift basket when our original wedding was cancelled!). They helped us plan all the new dates, navigated a few venue changes, and ultimately helped us plan our dream wedding with 6 weeks notice. Not only do they show up for you on the day of the wedding, but they also put so much work in ahead of time to ensure the day runs smoothly.
I always knew they were the perfect choice, but on our wedding night it was confirmed when all of our friends kept coming up to us telling us how fun and perfect Beth and John are! I would definitely consider them friends instead of vendors; we will cherish their work for forever. It's true that on your wedding day you spend more time with your photographers than most of your guests and we are forever grateful that they helped make our day as perfect as it was!
Bethany & John are incredible photographers. After they shot our dream engagement session in Disney, I knew they would be part of our wedding day. They are so professional and talented, not to mention, the sweetest couple you'll ever meet! Their passion for their work truly shines. They perfectly captured the 2 most important events in our life thus far and we will treasure their work forever.
Beth and John are fantastic photographers and people. I found Beth Joy Photography through instagram, what really got me to contact Beth was their Walt Disney World photos. Once getting in contact it felt so natural talking to Beth and John and after this experience I definitely feel like my Husband and I created friends and not just wedding vendors in the end. We had our engagement photos with them at Disney and they eased our minds with the whole session. They knew both of us were so nervous and walked both my husband and I through the whole thing and the photos were amazing. Throughout the wedding process they made me feel at ease and I was able to ask them anything. I 100% so glad I found Beth and hired them for our wedding. I have not even seen all the photos and I am still amazed at their skills and what they captured for both our engagement and wedding photos. I cant stress enough how happy I am to have hired them.
Oh my gosh where do I even begin, Beth and John are truly amazing. My fiance and I wanted to do engagement photos in disney. I was able to go find them on Instagram and immediately fell in love with the work they do. I felt warmth coming from their first response right away. We scheduled a time to meet in disney and she was very prompt and sent me all the details immediately. Before our engagement shoot, I was pretty nervous, once we started I was immediately comfortable. They made us have fun and laugh. We as a couple felt that we could truly be ourselves and they were able to capture that in the photos. Not only were we in a place where we loved, with ones we loved but it was being photographed. We just received the photos back today and I honestly have no words, they are just perfect!!!!I couldn't recommend Beth and John more. If you want amazing photographers hire these precious peaches you will not regret it. Thank you again for making our engagement shoot full of magic.
Beth Joy Photography was by far the best decision we made when it came to wedding planning. I looked at a zillion different photographers, and couldn’t be happier that we booked with them! They made the entire planning process so much easier and were always available to answer my many questions. They were so warm & friendly, and were even more amazing to work with in person when we met them for our engagement session. When it came to the wedding day, they were on the ball and were literally everywhere to capture every single moment. I had so many of our guests tell me how great our photographers were, and our photos are just extra proof of that. Their work is gorgeous, and attention to detail is spot on! They were by far my favorite vendor we booked for our wedding, although it feels silly calling them vendors when they feel more like friends. We are so glad they were there to capture our special day, and we would book them again in a heartbeat!
Bethany & John were absolutely incredible! They are incredibly organized and will make sure that your day flows from top to bottom. I called them many times when it came to questions that I had and they always were there to help me make important decisions. They are sooo flexible and two of the sweetest people I have ever met. We loved working with them so much!! Some of my favorite memories of my wedding were ideas of Bethany & John - Let them be apart of your big day - you won't regret it!!
Bethany and John are absolutely amazing!!! I cried tears of joy when we got all of our pictures back. They are truly talented people who captured our big day perfectly. The attention to detail was outstanding. I loved how they were able to move the day along to make sure they were able to capture everything we wanted while still sticking to the schedule. They were fun and professional throughout the day. It is apparent that they are passionate and excited about their work. I would highly recommend them without any reservations!!!
We cannot speak more highly of Bethany and John! They are not only extremely talented, but so enjoyable to work with! They made us feel so comfortable from start to finish of the entire wedding planning and day of process. We loved hanging out with them at our engagement shoot and on our wedding day! They made us feel at ease and completely relaxed in front of the camera. We are absolutely in love with our photos and could not have imagined how stunning they turned out. Our families are also incredibly happy with how everything turned out! Bethany and John are such a genuine pair and we will forever recommend them =).
Beth Joy Photography was the best decision we made!! Beth and John are so enjoyable to work with. Not only do they make you feel comfortable, but they read the environment and adapt to what you need. I had some issues my coordinator at the wedding. They gave me time when I needed it and moved things along quickly when I felt pinched for time. They also took on some of the coordinator responsibilities that were dropped - literally doing everything to make sure the day went as smoothly as possible. And, of course, the photos are stunning - I’ve received so many compliments! I would recommend them over and over and over. Worth every single penny!!
Bethany and John were truly a the dream photog team for our big day! Not only are they both some of the warmest people you will ever meet, but they also really know what they are doing. We are so in love with all of our photos and the feelings are mutual for all of our friends and family. We honestly get so many compliments and questions about who captured all of our photos. I've already referred numerous people :). We enjoyed having them with us capturing all of our memories as we celebrated our wedding!
Beth and John were the most fantastic wedding photographers! From troubleshooting my bouquet to just being so comfortable and calming to be around, we could not have chosen better photographers!! Of course, their pictures are gorgeous, amazing quality, but they just go above and beyond to make your day extra special. :) 💕💕
John and Bethany are the perfect husband and wife photography duo for your special day! I couldn't have asked for a better couple to capture my husband and I's most memorable day. I knew I wanted this couple to shoot my pictures even before I was engaged. Their images capture your eyes and also your heart. From the beautiful engagement photo shoot, to our dream wedding pictures! I honestly do not have enough room in my house to put up all the photos!!! (Currently telling my husband we need a bigger house to display all the beautiful pictures) They are so easy going, down to earth, and make you feel so comfortable! As a type A bride, I had no problem giving them total control and letting them have the reigns! They are two of the most beautiful, artistic, loving people! They genuinely care about you and your partner and will guarantee they get the best photos! 10/10 Well done!!! Love you guys!!! <3
Beth and John are amazing! I was trying to find a last minute photographer even though I had small intimate wedding we wanted pictures. Beth and John booked me 2 weeks before and worked with my budget! They were even able to give location suggestions for the Linda of shots I wanted. They were so sweet and nice! And PUNCTUAL which is a huge win from me! My photos turned out phenomenal and were done in 2 weeks (we didn’t get married during the busy wedding season). There was a wide selection of photos, some edited with the originals still available as well! Obtaining the pics was easy as well! If we ever plan our big wedding like we want I will definitely REBOOK!
Bethany and John were absolutely amazing! I can’t tell you enough how much I recommend Beth Joy Photography!! On top of being the sweetest couples ever, their talent is out of this world! They both helped me out with my timeline for the day, which took a lot of stress off of me and made things run sooo smoothly! They’re both supportive and never made me feel rushed, and I loved that John took care of photographing the boys getting ready (and even drove my husband to the venue after pictures! So sweet!! ) and Bethany took care of the ladies. Throughout the evening, I didn’t even know they were there as I went through the motions of the night, yet they managed to capture the most special moments that I wouldn’t have known about...right down to the detail. Love these two, and I love the beautiful memories that they captured for my husband and I to cherish for the rest of our lives ❤️
Beth Joy Photography was my favorite vendor to work with! They made the entire wedding planning process so much easier and less stressful (not to mention they are the nicest people ever!). They did both our engagement and wedding photos. For the engagement shoot, they let us get create and take them on our boat to get photos somewhere that was special to us. All of our photos were edited so beautifully and came out exactly as we had hoped. If you're going to invest in anything for your wedding, your photos should be it! Thank you SO much Beth and John for capturing our wedding and giving us such a beautiful way to remember our day.
Absolutely love them! My husband, Jeff and I are so happy that we chose Beth Joy Photography to capture our wedding! From the moment we met Beth & John, we knew we wanted them not only as our photographers, but also as friends! They are such genuine, sweet, joyful people who are extremely passionate about their work. They captured every detail and emotion of our wedding day so elegantly, photos that we will cherish forever. The best photographers, you will not regret choosing them for your special day!
Beth and her husband, John, were incredible to work with. They made our wedding day truly special. Feeling like we had friends photographing our wedding made everything comfortable. The quality of their work is impeccable, they surprised us with early sneak peeks, and were punctual in delivering the photos on time. I cannot say enough good things about working with this adorable couple! They book up fast, so definitely reach out sooner rather than later. We booked our wedding date around their schedule: that's how worth it they are!!
We cannot say enough about how thrilled we are to have found Beth Joy Photography. Bethany and John are such genuinely wonderful people and they were so knowledgeable and thoughtful through every step of the wedding planning process and the wedding day itself. The pictures are more beautiful than I could have ever dreamed. They captured the day perfectly. Highly recommend!
Choosing a wedding photographer can be a daunting task. However, look no further, because Bethany and John are simply the BEST! Wedding planning is stressful. It's full of tiny details as well as big decisions that can make your head spin. Having someone in your corner, working to make your day the best it can be is absolutely priceless and that's exactly what these two do. My husband and I can't say enough how great Beth and John were at making our day relaxed, fun, and oh-so special!
From our first correspondence we knew we were working with the right people. Bethany is so organized, she really knew how to keep us on task leading up to and including the wedding day. We are truly pleased with all of our photos. From start to finish, Beth and John were consummate professionals. They were able to capture memories and we will always be grateful for those pictures.
Bethany & John captured our special day just the way I hoped they would. Our pictures are absolutely stunning and I get butterflies every time I look through them again! Bethany and John exceeded every expectation my husband and I had! I cannot thank them enough for capturing our day perfectly! Book with Beth Joy Photography, I promise you will be blown away!
Beth and John are amazing to work with. My wife requested me to meet with all of our of vendors throughout the planning process. We did not schedule any other meetings after getting to know these two. They were on time with getting our photos back to us and they were great to work with on our wedding day. We even met up with them again after our wedding to get our album and sat and talked for over an hour. They are the definition of good people! I would recommend everyone to these two - you won't regret it.
Simply the best!!! Bethany and John go above and beyond to make sure they get the best shots! They are two of the nicest, most genuine people you could ever meet. I was referred to them from friends and I didn't need to meet with anyone else after meeting these two for coffee. Our engagement photos were great and our wedding photos were even better! They had so much patience, especially with special requests. I know I will cherish these pictures forever!
Beth and John did an absolutely amazing job capturing our wedding day. From the very first time we met with them, we knew they were perfect. They offered advice on how to handle tricky day-of timeline problems, gave honest opinions on vendors, and just generally were there to help with anything we needed! I was so happy and emotional when we got our photos back. They captured every little detail and every moment so perfectly. I can't wait to look back on the day with the photos for years to come. If you hire Beth and John, you will not regret it!!
Beth and John made our wedding experience one we will never forget! They weren't just photographers, but friends who truly cared about our day and made sure that our day was captured in a beautiful and memorable way. They truly take their time to make sure they catch each and every detail and will put all the love into making sure your final photos are everything you dream of! I recommend them to anyone when it comes to capturing the romantic elegance of your day!
AMAZING! Bethany and John made the day so easy...they gave us a timeline and were able to guide us through the day without making it stressful. They made taking all the pictures fun and seem like just a few minutes instead of the hour-hour and a half it was! The preview of the pictures we got were amazing and I can't wait to see the rest!!! Timely with her responses to emails & texts, both Bethany and John are SUPER friendly with great attention to detail. Love them both!!!
Bethany and John were so wonderful to work with. From the first conversation, throughout the planning process and on the day of our wedding they were always so incredibly helpful, kind, supportive and knowledgeable. And it wasn't just for photography - she was also kind enough to help me find other vendors, provide feedback on planning, timeline and more. On our wedding day they made us feel so comfortable and at the same time it felt like we barely saw them - they were so good at being in the background while still getting amazing shots. We love how our pictures turned out - my parents can't stop raving about them. We would recommend Bethany and John without hesitation - they are an absolute joy and incredible team!
Bethany and John could not have possibly done a better job than they did. I spent endless hours searching on Instagram for the perfect wedding photographers for our NYE wedding. Bethany and John caught my eye right away! Bethany was quick to respond and we met up at a coffee shop so they could share their story and some more images with us. We fell in love with them and with their work. They truly are people who listen, which is important for the line of work they are in. These two are kind, sincere, and extremely hard-working. We set up a fall engagement session with them and were overjoyed when we got our pictures back! Our wedding images are breathtaking! They made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. They don't stage many photos, instead just capture the moments that are taking place. They stayed through our entire wedding reception and went above and beyond in every aspect. I would 100% recommend them to anyone who is thinking about these two capturing their special day.
Beth and John are SO amazing to work with!! We had quite the rowdy wedding party AND huge families to do formals with, plus rain/wind/not ideal wedding weather, and Beth and John executed the day with enthusiasm and kindness! Our pictures turned out so amazing. Beth and John are wonderful human beings and so great at their job!
Bethany & John are really the dream team... From early wedding planning creeping on Instagram, I just knew I wanted them to photograph Mason & I's special day. They have great energy, patience, and direction on a day when everything seems fast paced and insane. The Tibbles' were professional yet comfortable & friendly from day one. I truly recommend them to anyone looking to capture the love, smiles, and genuine happiness that comes with wedding day. I can't thank you both enough for giving us and our families photos to fawn over forever! xoxo
BETH JOY PHOTOGRAPHY IS ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING!!! I am so grateful that we were able to find Beth Joy Photography. We were lucky enough to have them take both our engagement and wedding pictures! We took our engagement photos last November and we got married this past September. Bethany and John are two incredibly kind people that make the wedding planning process WAY easier plus their work is stunning! Your wedding photographer is someone that will be with you the entire day and so it is important that you are comfortable around your photographer. I guarantee you will be comfortable if you work with Bethany and John. They are kind, caring, and supportive. On top of that they do a great job of keeping everyone on schedule and softly guiding you to where you need to be next. As you plan for your big day, Bethany will help you answer questions that you didn't even know you should ask. It was like having a wedding guardian angel :) Our engagement and wedding pictures turned out beautiful and I know we'll be looking back on them for years. Beth Joy's work is timeless and we couldn't ask for more. THANK YOU BETHANY & JOHN!!! If you're reading this review and still looking for a photographer, stop your search now and send an email to Beth Joy Photography!!
If you are searching for beautiful, real photos that capture every moment of your big day, you will not be disappointed with Beth Joy Photography!
I do not even know where to begin with Beth and John - we had such an amazing experience with them!! I love pictures and this was one of the most important aspects of our wedding to me. My husband and I got married in April of 2017 in Northern Michigan. I had high hopes for pictures and even then I was blown away!
Beth and John are very knowledgeable and highly skilled. They gave us great advice for pictures, put in the extra effort to make sure they captured the scenery of our destination venue (the first time they had been to Castle Farms), were so accommodating and receptive to our input, and took gorgeous photos. From just a few conversations I felt like they knew us so well and what was important to us in our pictures. We are a three person family and Beth Joy made sure to help us capture both pictures of us as a couple and family ones as well. We even had our puppy join the family for engagement pictures! Photographing a child and puppy is not the easiest of tasks but Beth and John pulled it off beautifully. The whole family had fun taking pictures with Beth Joy - both at our engagement shoot and on the big day!
We did engagement and wedding photos with Beth Joy Photography and on both occasions we received beautiful pictures very quickly. We even had sneak peaks before the pictures were all ready! Our engagement pictures were taken in December too so we were shocked to have our pictures back so fast during that busy month with the holidays. For both our engagement and wedding photos, we were amazed at how many pictures Beth and John captured for us. They truly went above and beyond and made sure to get each moment. I enjoy looking through our engagement and wedding albums not only because I love the pictures, but because they help me remember the magic of that day. One of the reasons we chose Beth Joy was because we wanted to have real photos that represented who we are and were not overdone. Our photos are the PERFECT mix of beauty and glamour shots, with pictures that look like us and let our expressions and inner-selves shine through. All of the other photos we have seen by Beth Joy have that same high quality and authentic balance to them.
On top of all of their stellar service and amazing photographic/editing abilities, Beth and John are the sweetest people and we count them among our friends. They were fast favorites and I could turn to them for counsel on pictures as well as wedding planning in general - Beth always responded quickly and gave great advice. Beth Joy Photography has made an effort to keep up with us after the wedding as well which I love! You will feel very valued working with Beth and John!
In addition, the printing service they have for pictures is great - very fairly priced and fantastic quality. They even helped my parents select sizes and pictures when they made a purchase.
Everything about our experience with Beth Joy Photography has been nothing short of incredible. Their superior quality, skills, attentiveness, effort to get to know their subjects, and wonderful personalities all contributed to our excellent experience with Beth Joy Photography.
We are definitely hoping we can take more family pictures with Beth Joy Photography sometime very soon!!!
Bethany and John were seriously a godsend. As soon as I had my first conversation with Bethany, I knew we were in good hands. My husband and I clicked instantly with Bethany and John during our engagement shoot. They made us feel so comfortable. Throughout the wedding planning process, I would text Bethany for advice and she was always more than happy to help. Fast forward to our wedding day... they were amazing. They were the perfect balance of being present but invisible. In the moments we needed them, they acted as extended bridal party offering a helping hand. In other moments, they captured the perfect candid shot without us even realizing they were there! Who better to capture your day becoming husband and wife than a husband and wife team? They work in perfect harmony. We were so lucky to have them!
Bethany and John were such a dream to work with! They are such a fun couple and make your special day easy and effortless. We are so happy with our decision to have BethJoy photograph our wedding day and our engagement pictures. They are so organized and their attention to detail shows in all of our photos. They definitely go above and beyond for their couples. Our photos are beautiful and we would recommend them to anyone!
Bethany and John and THE BEST!! We just got married this past weekend and are so grateful that we had Bethany and John there to capture the day!! First of all, they are so friendly and fun! We met with them a few weeks before the wedding and it felt like meeting two old friends! Throughout the wedding planning process, Bethany was always available to answer any questions I had about our photo plan or just about wedding planning in general! On our actual wedding day it rained and rained and rained. They didn't blink an eye and quickly helped come up with a back-up plan for photos! I swear I didn't see them sit down for 12 hours straight, I don't think they missed a single moment at our wedding! Whether it was Bethany standing in the rain or John taking large family portraits of 30+ people while standing on a chair at the venue, they always went ABOVE AND BEYOND! All of the unedited photos they showed us throughout the night were amazing! They truly captured those small moments throughout the day that make the night so magical! Thank you again Bethany and John!!
Beth and John were absolutely amazing! They tailored a package to fit my needs and budget. Once they showed up, I didn't even have to do anything. They took care of it all. They're very flexible, too. We had a timeline for how the family portraits/bridal party/bride and groom photos would go, but nobody ended up being in the spot they were supposed to when they were supposed to. Bethany and John totally rolled with it, and we just worked with whoever was available. They were direct, professional, and didn't waste any time. My ultimate goal was to be able to make happy hour (we took our photos after the ceremony but before reception), and in that tight hour-and-a-half, we managed to get all the photos we wanted and then some! Best part was we were able to even make cocktail hour. I just received my photos a few weeks ago and just can't stop looking through them. They're gorgeous! I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a wedding photographer. If you want your photos to look better than all your friend's wedding photos (wink wink), Beth Joy Photography is the way to go :)
Beth and John are a DREAM TEAM!!!!!! Several months before the wedding they send a wedding questionnaire asking about all of the details of your wedding, making sure that they capture every detail, including the details you especially want to be captured! They are so much fun to work with, super nice, extremely organized, flexible, and extremely talented!!! They capture every precious detail, looking at our photos makes me feel like we're getting married all over again!!! I can't say enough great things about them! LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!!!!
Beth and John were fantastic! They were incredibly organized, thoughtful and thorough. They photographed our Ann Arbor wedding and I would highly recommend them for your big day!
I stumbled upon Beth Joy Photography on Instagram and am so happy I did! Beth and John are so sweet and easy to work with. They were incredibly flexible and we really enjoyed all of our photos. I haven't even received my final wedding photos yet and am already giving them a 5-star review because I am that confident that I will love them. I would definitely recommend them!
Bethany and John are incredible! They are so down-to-earth, professional, efficient, kind, and talented. They are incredibly organized and flexible as well. We were all at ease with them and confident that they were doing a wonderful job capturing our wedding day. Many people in our wedding party told us that day and after, just how fun, nice, and funny both Bethany and John are. We received our photos several weeks before we anticipated and we are in love with our photos! They are incredibly artistic and truly captured the feel, the details, and every moment of our wedding day. Thank you Bethany and John!
After weeks of searching, emailing, and bookings falling through, my husband came across Beth Joy Photography on Instagram. She was "new-ish" to the scene, within our price range, and her photos were lovely! We reached out and from then on it was a DREAM. Bethany and her husband John are SO talented and friendly. Working with them was literally the easiest part of my wedding planning. They were so flexible when we met for our engagement photos; my husband is *not a fan* of being in front of a camera, and this often comes across as him looking uncomfortable and unhappy in a photo. Bethany and John made us laugh and feel pretty and comfortable, and our photos turned out natural and perfect! I cannot express what a miracle that is. When it came time for the wedding, Bethany and John came to our city early and shot our rehearsal so they could get a feel for the church and ceremony. This was really helpful because they could touch base with the planner and make sure to be in the right spots, as our church was particular about where the photographers could be. It was so awesome of them to come early so we could all be ready for the big day! FINALLY, on our wedding day, these two were amazing. They got all the details, photos of both my husband and myself getting ready, and everything we wanted before the ceremony, even though the time crunch seemed crazy. The photos they took of our ceremony and the bridal party sessions are nothing short of breathtaking. The couple knows how to manage a crowd of excited people, take funny and cute group photos, and glamorous, loving couple portraits. They also captured our reception and guests so wonderfully, and even the late-night dancing photos look lovely! This couple is such a wonderful team; they communicate with each other so well and the outcome is just perfect. They are sweet, friendly, dedicated, flexible, responsive, easy to work with (and once you link them with your other vendors you don't have to worry about coordinating anything!) which is PRICELESS when you are planning a wedding. Then of course you get amazing photos within the promised time frame. We still can't decide which to print because there are SO MANY that we love. Also, Bethany has the couple prepare an outline with details that help her and John (what combination of family photos you want, what special items you'll have, what time to arrive at different locations, etc), but ultimately helps YOU with planning. I used her outline as a basis for my master timeline, and it helped me be sure I wasn't forgetting anything. It's so helpful. I cannot say enough good things about this team, and would recommend them to ANYONE and EVERYONE!
They say a picture is worth a thousand words but my wedding photos have left me completely speechless. Thank you so much for our photos - beautiful doesn't even begin to describe them! Rudy and I will cherish them for so many years to come!
There are truly no words to describe what a blessing Bethany and her husband, John, are, not only to us but our family and children to come. They took the most important day of our lives and captured it so beautifully. David and I cannot wait to share them with our family and friends for the rest of our lives. We were so blessed to find them, it was a joy to get to know them and a pleasure to have both, Bethany and John, as a part of our big day! I've already been asked who photographed our wedding and I am so happy to say it was them!
All I can do it continually thank them for making the most wonderful day even better!
Bethany and John took our wedding pictures. They are an amazing husband wife duo and I couldn't be more happy with how our pictures turned out! Bethany was amazing during the wedding planning process and was very prompt on answering questions. I always felt very comfortable and couldn't have asked for anything better! We love our wedding pictures!
Honestly, Bethany was one of the BEST decisions we made for our wedding. Bethany is truly an above and beyond photographer. Her and her husband John are totally a dream team and on the day of the wedding, they helped us stay on timeline and gave great direction (something a lot of photographers forget to do! This is so important for brides who aren't used to modeling like me and my fiance were!), and were just in general total sweethearts. They helped to make you feel so comfortable and their style is so soft and romantic! They filled in the gaps as needed and trust me when I tell you that I gave them quite a doozy of a timeline, but they still managed to capture all of the important details! We had so many traditions from merging two different cultures (Austrian and Taiwanese) so it was so much fun for them to capture all of our little details for us! They truly did a wonderful job and I can't stop recommending them to everyone! They are very reasonably priced and they certainly do travel to different locations! Check their website to see which locations they will give you a good deal for, and they are such sweet people, you can ask them anything! They were so easy to talk to and so easy to work with. They perfectly captured the rustic farm wedding that we were striving for! Protip, ask her for florist recommendations! She also knows some great florists!
Bethany and John were truly incredible to work with for our engagement and wedding photography. They make you feel super comfortable, especially if you haven't been professionally photographed before. We both felt at ease and like we were just hanging out with a couple friends during the photo shoots. Our photos are absolutely gorgeous - they perfectly tell our story in a natural and elegant way. Beth was super organized during the planning process which is a huge help when you're juggling all the tasks of planning a wedding. We received multiple positive comments from our wedding party and guests about how great the photographers were. Highly recommend!!
Bethany and John did me and my fiancé's engagement pictures and they were amazing! Not only did the pictures turn out incredible, we had a great time working with her and John. They both have such great eyes for the best shot and you can tell they truly strive for perfection! I would recommend them they are great and fun to work with.
We were SO impressed by Bethany and John throughout the entire wedding planning process, and especially when we got our stunning pictures back. They worked so hard all day during our wedding to capture every last little detail and the pictures are amazing! You can tell that Bethany and John absolutely love what they do, they were such a joy to work with. They went above and beyond what we expected from our wedding photographer - I cannot recommend them enough!
My husband and I are so incredibly grateful that we had Beth and John as our photographers to capture every moment on our special day. We were running late to the church and they were already there taking pictures of the church, our dresses, and little details I would have never even thought about capturing but I am so grateful they did!
These two professionals help make your day go off without a hitch....they make you feel very comfortable!
Our pictures turned out absolutely stunning and I cannot wait to share them with our family and friends!
I would highly recommend Beth Joy photography to anyone who is looking for wonderful and talented photographers to capture their special day!
Beth and her husband John were amazing throughout the whole process! Beth was quick to reply to e-mails/texts and was really organized in making sure that we got the pictures that we wanted! The day of, Beth and John were there the whole day capturing all of the little, special moments of the day. Their pictures are exquisite and you can see their love and passion for photography through their work! She did well in making sure the rowdy groomsmen were in check :) I would highly recommend Beth Joy Photography!
Wow! My husband, Jared, and I are so happy that we chose Beth Joy Photography to capture our wedding . Beth and her husband, John, were so great to work with! You can tell they are extraordinarily passionate about their work. Their photos are filled with beautiful detail and special touches. They were able to capture the elegance, emotion and fun of our wedding day. We posting the pictures a little over a month ago and keep getting compliments!!
On top of the great work they do, they are really wonderful and kind people, and we loved having them with us. Beth and John are genuine, joyful and caring people who went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of and that we were enjoying our day.
They're also super thoughtful. One big example: we asked our Aunt to videotape our ceremony for us. Right as the ceremony was starting, she realized that her camcorder wasn't working. So John pulled out his phone and taped the whole thing, which was such a blessing!
I highly recommend meeting and working with them, and believe wholeheartedly that you will be happy you did!!
We could not have been happier with Beth Joy Photography! This husband and wife duo was so much fun to work with. They were professional and personal, capturing every detail of the day that we wanted. We LOVE our pictures. Bethany and John captured so many priceless moments for us and we are so grateful. We give our highest recommendation to Beth Joy Photography, not just for the quality of the pictures, but for their organization and the personal touches they add in to make you know that you are their top priority. I knew I could trust them completely to take care of every detail.
