About this vendor
I believe as your wedding photographer that my job is to document the emotions of your day. My aim is to capture genuine emotion as it was felt on the day, in the moment- I feel the best way to do that is to avoid forcing too many traditional poses and allowing love to speak for itself. The most genuine and beautiful moments I’ve captured are never planned and isn’t that just how life is too. I’m about real moments, true love, genuine laughter and serious cuddles.
I’m also very passionate about adventure and traveling. There is something so beautiful to me about couples madly in love, lost in nature. Intimate and adventurous weddings and elopements are my passion. But at the end of the day what I’m most passionate about is capturing genuine love and authentic love stories.

We were super excited to hire Bethel, but wound up having to cancel our contract with her. She was extremely unresponsive to emails and unreliable to make plans with.
We spent months trying to nail down a date for our engagement shoot for September (she would go weeks without responding), only to have her reach out to cancel the day before due to Covid exposure, even though she had tested negative. This wouldn’t have been a deal breaker had she not been so unresponsive during the the months leading up to the shoot. It made us really uneasy about hiring her for our wedding day. She also wouldn’t return any of our deposit, even though we canceled the contract over a year in advance of the wedding and had done nothing but exchanged a handful of emails. It was a really disappointing experience, especially since she was the first vendor we had hired.
Bethel was the first vendor we hired. The moment I connected with her I knew she would be our photographer. Bethel has a wonderful personality and made me feel comfortable right away. It was important for us to hire a photographer who loves the outdoors just as much as we do and captures moments that evoke emotion. Her love for the outdoors and adventure, authenticity, and intimate moments are what makes her so incredible. She recommended a few vendors in the area that we loved working with as well. Bethel sent us sneak peeks immediately after the wedding. They are breathtaking! We will always look at our photos and be reminded of the love and joy we felt getting married, and the wonderful memories created with our families and friends.
We knew from her portfolio that her work was stunning, but we didn't know how wonderful she would be to work with! Bethel went above and beyond to make our photos special. She even let us know when she was in Colorado (she lives in PA) and drove 4 hours so we could have our engagement photos taken in the town we met.
For our wedding in PA she and her assistant were kind, fun, and kept things relaxed while also getting pictures of everything - even behind the scenes shots. They were super professional.
The photos are gorgeous. Bethel has a great eye for detail and light. They are above and beyond the quality that I have seen from other photographers.
100% would recommend to any couple looking for something unique, adventurous, fun, and professional.
Bethel was so easy to work with from day one. She responded promptly to all of our questions. She traveled from a few hours away to shoot both our engagement and wedding photos and was on time to everything. She really listened to our vision and put us at ease with her laid back yet in control personality on our wedding day. Our photos turned out so well! I would highly recommend her to others.
Bethel is amazing at what she does! She's very easy going and a great addition to your wedding day
We continue to love how beautifully Bethel captured all our wedding moments. Looking back on the pictures now I remember every single emotion she captured and that's exactly what we wanted. Bethel had never done an Indian wedding before ours and they can be completely overwhelming. On top of that we had 3 completely different events and venues, but she's so comfortable in the uncomfortable I wasn't worried at all. It's great in the chaos of the day to have a person who is completely calm standing nearby. On top of that her editing and making everything feel natural has given us a ton of pictures that we'll cherish for years to come. If you're planning something unique or different for your wedding day, or just want someone who is level headed to capture your wedding beautifully, I'd recommend Bethel a thousand times over.
Our original wedding photographer had to cancel on us but gave us a list of recommendations which included Bethel. The moment I looked at her portfolio online, I felt as though our other photographer having to cancel was fate. I am extraordinarily self-conscious and hate nearly every picture taken of me but Bethel made me feel so comfortable in front of a camera and both our engagement pictures and wedding pictures came out better than I could have ever dreamed.
We couldn’t have asked for a better engagement photographer. Bethel is talented and adventurous. We loved going on a little photo adventure for our engagement shoot. The photos are perfect for our woodland themed wedding.
Bethel is a joy to work with and captured our wedding so well! She makes you feel comfortable from the start and has a keen eye for capturing a couple's uniqueness and personality. I really can't say enough great things about her work and how her passion for capturing the real moments of love shines through her. If you're looking for a photographer who really gets you and your partner, Bethel is the one!
Bethel was all I could have asked for of a photographer both during my engagement pictures and on my wedding day. She put me at ease despite the fact that I don’t love to be in front of the camera and took photos that I couldn’t have dreamt of in my wildest dreams. As cliche as it might be, I will cherish my photos for a lifetime.
Bethel is absolutely amazing at what she does! She made us feel comfortable right away during our engagement photos by engaging and laughing with us. The pictures from my wedding are incredible, Bethel truly has a eye for capturing certain moments! She's very easy to work with and truly cares about what we wanted for our special day! I definitely recommend her to anyone!
