“No posing, just interacting, and enjoying life,
just as you are.”

Sidney has an incredible sense of knowing just the right time to take the picture. We could not have asked for more; she captured some fantastic moments between the two of us!

“My biggest concerns had been getting a great photographer. After all, you only get one chance to get the photos you want."

I could not have been happier with our decision to use Bethany Michaela Studio. The team was wonderful from the beginning to the end of the process. Not only did they work to make sure everyone was comfortable (and my husband hates getting his picture taken!) but we ended up with some beautiful photos despite the fact that it rained the entire day.

Meet your wedding coordinator

I'm Bethany


Over the past 15 years, I've built more than just a team - I've created a family of photographers who pour their hearts into every wedding they capture. Each associate has been handpicked because I saw something special in them - that spark of passion for storytelling and genuine care for their couples can't be taught.

What makes me proud isn't just their amazing technical skills (though trust me, they're incredible), it's watching them connect with couples and bring their own unique magic to each wedding day. While everyone on the team has trained in my approach, I encourage them to let their creativity shine.

We're more than just photographers who work together - we inspire each other, support each other, and truly celebrate each couple we serve.

Meet the Team

“Our photographer took us on a tour through the city and showed us beautiful places that are now some of our favorite memories of that day. Bethany asked us beforehand, about our interests and found great spots, that matched our personalities. It was more than photos, it was an experience.”

“Our photographer was so encouraging and helped us with posing when we felt awkward and weren't sure what to do. We felt so lucky to have Bethany and her team as guides for our wedding day! ”
