Meet me

I can still feel the kicks sometimes when I am lying still. Weird? I know. But, it wasn’t that long ago that I was pregnant with our last son. Then, I look at my oldest son, and wonder where did the time go?

I have been an Ohio photographer for over 10 years. I am a testament to the fact, time doesn’t stop. Whether you are wanting it to or not, it just keeps on going. I am also no stranger to how busy life gets and stressful it can be to round everyone up, let alone get yourself ready. Yes, YOU!

YOU need to be in your family images. YOU need to celebrate what you have been through to this point in life. I feel you…. I can feel you thinking it will be chaos. Amongst the chaos, I will capture things that you never knew you needed and will cherish forever.

Hi, I'm bethany

We reached out to Bethany after looking through several portfolios of recommended photographers in the area. We asked her to capture some family photos for our business at our Farm. She was super flexible to work with our harvest dates and was incredibly accommodating to my very busy and active young boys! Her talent to capture the perfect golden light is unmatched! Would highly recommend spending with her! I also appreciated her calm demeanor despite picture day being a bit unnerving for us as parents! Very thankful for her help!

Bethany was so incredible to work with and produced images better than I imagined. We drove from Dayton to work with her for my maternity and newborn photos and I would absolutely make that drive again for her.

Bethany has done my high school senior pictures, maternity photo shoot, and newborn/family photos. She is so talented, and has really mastered her craft at photography. Her eye for capturing the moment is what really makes her work stand out, and has kept me coming back for more. Bethany puts so much heart and passion into her work and I am always amazed by our end galleries. Ive had a great experience with all of our sessions, and we have had a lot of fun so far! My favorite has been our newborn family shoot. She photographed our son in the most beautiful ways and brought all of our ideas to life! Highly recommend and I will be coming back for more as my family continues to grow!!

Whispy Shades was an amazing experience for both maternity and newborn photos. Bethany was extremely kind and professional, allowing me and my wife to choose the direction for each of our photo shoots while offering great advice and guidance as my wife and I did not have any ideas at first. Bethany was timely, flexible, and extremely kind and easy to get along with. On top of the warm, welcoming vibes, the photos she took turned out phenomenal! I would highly recommend using Whispy Shades for maternity, newborn, family and any other professional pictures they offer.

My wife and I had both our maternity and newborn photo shoots with Bethany. She did a terrific job! She was able to direct us to get the best out of each photo. The touch ups and editing of the photos made them look magnificent. Bethany did a great job dealing with our fussy baby as well to get the best pictures out of a screaming wild baby. We’re so glad to have the albums and are proud to show them off. Thanks Bethany!

We love our photos and had a great experience! Bethany was easy to work with and so patient with all the emails and questions I sent to her. Turn around time for photo delivery was as expected. We gave photos as Christmas gifts this year, all of our family loved them!  Highly recommend if you’re looking for a great photographer!!

Bethany did a great job capturing our vision and was very accommodating, as we live a good distance away. She offers wardrobe alongside hair/makeup (extra charge). Her hair/makeup person uses Mary Kay. When working with our baby, she was able to not only keep him calm, but also have his personality shine through. She is a baby whisperer! Everyone absolutely loved the photos. They were certainly hard to narrow down because we loved so many.
