About

I am a wedding and portrait photographer located in St Augustine, Florida. I travel to areas surrounding St Augustine for weddings and portraits. Ponte Vedra, Orlando, and Jacksonville are some of my most frequent spots. I am available for travel world-wide!

I am a member of The V List, The Celebration Society, a photographer and contributor for St Augustine Social, and shoot the Family Feature for St Augustine Social Magazine. I am also a member of Professional Photographers of America.

My work has been featured on Bridal Guide, Every Last Detail, The Celebration Society, HowHeAsked.com, The Wedding Concierge, Pretty My Party, Love Came Down, A Golden Locket, Hot Pink Brides, and Trendy Brides.

I love weddings and I love being able to photograph such a special time. I do not take for granted that a wedding is a once in a life time event and it is very humbling to be welcomed into such a time in a couple’s life. From intimate weddings to elaborate, the emotions of the day are my favorite to capture. As the wedding day unfolds, you may be surprised by the emotions that come with it. But, those are my favorite to capture; the look on the groom’s face when he sees his bride for the first time, the way the mother of the bride looks at her husband as he walks their daughter down the aisle, the way the mother of the groom looks at her son and sees him, briefly, as a small boy, to the look of pure joy on the bride and groom’s faces as they turn to face their family and friends.

Every couple has a unique story! I hope to be able to tell a bit of yours.

There are not enough kind words to describe Bethany or her pictures. She is simply wonderful. She is talented, professional, sweet, and easy to be around. We chose Bethany for our wedding after a friend told us to check her out and reading through tons of reviews on this site. One conversation with her and I was sold. Our engagement shoot was at the lighthouse in St. Augustine and just our luck that day was absolutely freezing but looking at her pictures you would never know just how miserably cold we all were that day. The pictures were amazing and despite the cold we had a wonderful time getting to know her and planning for the BIG day. Our wedding day was our fairytale come true and Bethany was absolutely the perfect addition to that fairytale. When I started going through my pictures I was shocked to see all the pictures that I never even realized she had taken. She is a master at blending in and capturing special moments as they actually are happening. I could not be any happier with our decision to have her as part of our day. I would recommend Bethany to any couple.

They are the reason my wedding was such a happy day. When my original wedding venue closed down unexpectedly, Bethany was the first only person to call and inform me of everything! I owe her a lot and will always be grateful. Her and her assistant were very professional and went out of their way to get every memory captured. Mady Joe Photography does amazing detail pictures as well as people photos. Some of my favorite pictures are pictures of my rings, flowers, and other forgotten details.

We were able to view all of our wedding photos about two weeks afterwards. I was impressed with how quickly they were ready. Bethany Walter did a fantastic job capturing our special day. The album she designed was beautiful and very good quality. She worked well with all of my vendors and helped make the day go smoothly.

Bethany and her team were absolutely amazing to work with!! From our engagement session to our wedding day, the was so very polite and easy to work with. I knew from my first initial meeting with Bethany that we were going to work very well together, as I could see her organization and attention to detail, of which I myself need in order to function! :)

On the day of the wedding, Bethany and her team worked around a slight hiccup we had in our schedule because of a wardrobe malfunction with a few of the groomsmen, and I was never thee wiser that there was ever a problem (I didn't learn of the hiccup until after the wedding) because she was so calm in saying "why don't I get these shots now...and get the guys in a few minutes." I cannot thank her and her team enough for helping my mom and sister from keeping this little secret away from me, an already nervous and stressed bride! haha!

Bethany and her team's calmness, and flexibility is exactly what every bride needs on her wedding day, and I would HIGHLY recommend her to other brides looking for a photographer! She was an absolute joy to work with, and I think our family has gained a friend and photographer for life!

Bethany captured our day perfectly!

Looking back on the pictures from our wedding day, we are so so grateful that we chose Bethany to be our photographer. We could not have asked for better photos! She captured every moment perfectly that we discussed during our pre-wedding consultation. She is so easy to work with and made my usually camera shy husband feel comfortable in front of the lens! Her turn around was faster than promised and the quality of photos are perfection!

Bethany and her team have exceeded all my expectations. From the very beginning she worked with us on pricing, built a package to fit our needs and stayed within our budget. Our wedding day was perfectly captured behind the lens and every single picture she took is beautiful. She was quick and stayed on (ahead) of schedule, which was huge for me, still capturing all the family/friend shots we requested. Weeks after our wedding we were sent the gallery of photos and had a viewing party at our parents house. Everyone was moved to tears once again as we relived our dream come true wedding in her photos. As if we weren't already 200% satisfied with Bethany's photography service, last week we received a personal thank you card and a beautiful wooden box with a flash drive and several 4x6 photos printed for us as a gift. To say Bethany Walter is amazing at her "job" is an understatement. There is not one thing I would change or add about Bethany's photography. Thank you Bethany for capturing our wedding day better than we ever expected.

If you are looking for a photographer, do yourself a favor and end your search right here!

Bethany is so easy to work with. We never felt awkward and she did such an amazing job capturing the details and candid moments. She definitely seeks to please her clients and will go out of her way to do so. She's professional but still genuinely personable. And the pictures themselves are BEAUTIFUL! Wouldn't have changed a thing.
