About Bethany & Wellspring Photography

I’m excited about how Wellspring Photography is growing and through that I am able to learn more as well as venture into new areas of photography. We now offer packages for any events in life, from as big as weddings and births to as small as your child’s first time making chocolate chip cookies. We are now even doing school photographs from preschool through high school, as well as family, pregnancy, and baby sessions. Any photography need you have, we would be honored and excited to fulfill it.

Here at Wellspring Photography we love photography and love capturing the important moments in life. Any moment worth remembering is worth photographing.

Justin and Stephanie ~ engaged

Sunday, October 25th, 2009

 

These two are getting married at Nazareth on January 1st! These guys are one of the couples we booked at the Pinnacle "Wedding Dreams" bridal show! They will be kicking off our 2010 wedding season here at WP. I am loving these fall engagement sessions, so much color and textures! Stephanie and Justin were up for anything I suggested, we did a bit of walking but it was so worth it! It took me a couple extra days choosing my favorites because I had too many. First and foremost here is one for Steph’s mom. I know she wanted this pic so I’m posting it first!

Stephanie and Justin, I hope the rest of your planning goes well and I’ll see you guys in January! Lots more blogging to do this week, keep checkin in! Even though it will be November soon, my schedule isn’t slowing down! All of October I had almost a shoot everyday, some days multiples and so far November promises to be similar!

These two are adorable together! I had so much fun getting to know them, and of course enjoying the beautiful fall colors and weather! This was a fun session because the area they chose had the beach and also had a lot of beautiful grass and all types of trees! I took tons of shots and had a hard time choosing some for the blog but I finally decided on my favorites!

Andy and Andi!

These two are great together! They never stop laughing and it makes my job so awesome! We divided their engagement session into two parts so there are two totally different feels to their images! The first part we did downtown and the second part we did at Andi’s aunt’s house, she has a beautiful property. Warning, this post is huge, these two are easy to photograph and I couldn’t stop shooting! Here they are:

Melissa’s Bridal Shower!

Saturday, August 1st, 2009

 

This is Melissa from the engagement session form July 6! I got to photograph her bridal shower and it was tastefully done! It was such a lovely setting and I think everyone had a good time (myself included!) It was also fun to see the yayas! You might remember them from the September 18 post. The yayas have been friends since middle school and Melissa is yaya Lisa’s daughter! I love photographing clients as their lives move along, it’s so great :) Here are my favorites!

I finally met my September bride and groom! I was really excited! They picked a great location~ Melissa’s grandmother’s! Her grandmother has this great property with a lot of room and a lot of cool stuff! Melissa and Ross were fun to photograph too! They are laid back and were up for anything, and they brought a special member of their family for me to photograph as well! Here are my favorites:
