more about me

I am a Westerville family & newborn photographer passionate about preserving the honest, everyday moments that tell the story of your family. I’m drawn to the light that fills the places where life happens—the afternoon sun stretching across the floor where your little one plays, the glow catching those tiny fingerprints on the windows, and the soft morning light that arrives after another night of rocking and feeding your baby.

My sessions are centered around the comfort and familiarity of your home, where there’s no pressure to perform or make everything perfect. Inspired by motherhood, connection, and the beauty found in ordinary days, I create photographs that preserve more than what this season looked like. I want you to remember exactly how it felt.

The day is finally here! I run my sessions in a way where I let moments unfold while also guiding when necessary.  My sessions are very relaxed, and we aren't on a time crunch! The time flows from moment to moment, and I stay until I feel like I have created what I was envisioning for your session.

Once you are officially booked, we will walk through every aspect of your session during a session planning call. We will discuss outfits, what activities we might do during the photos, and the lighting in your home. 

One week (YES you read that right) after your session, you will receive your final gallery! From there, you will be able to download and print to your heart's content!  Then it is time to enjoy the photographs for decades to come.

-Beth

"In an industry where it can be hard to learn from others, I was equally touched by her willingness to share her tools, knowledge, and experience with others. She gives so freely of herself, never making you feel like she is holding anything back."

-Angela

"If there's one thing I've learned over the years, it's that creative work can have all the technical knowledge in the world behind it, but it also has to have heart. Faith has both as a photographer and educator, and that's what makes her stand apart in a world full of photography education."

Most days, my kids are glued to my side. I know the days of them being this way are numbered, and that has made me appreciate all of the little moments more. 

So when it comes to photographing your family, I know just what to look for, because I have been in the season you are in. I want you to see your family through my eyes, so that you can not only see, but feel just how beautiful this chapter is.
