    Above and Beyond

    Beth went above and beyond to make our day absolutely perfect. She is so talented and our wedding pictures will help us perfectly remember this most beautiful day of our lives. We started with an engagement shoot with Beth and she helped us quickly feel at ease when we clearly felt awkward and unsure of what to do. Leading up to the wedding she was very organized and made sure to go over all of the details with me. On the day of our wedding she efficiently captured all of the formal pictures that we requested and helped everyone to pose in ways that were flattering for everyone. During the ceremony and reception she went largely unnoticed, capturing images in a natural way as moments unfolded. Beth even helped me fix my hair, veil, and shoes throughout the night as little issues arose... going far beyond her job description. We will cherish all of the images she created for us for the rest of our lives. I highly recommend Beth to anyone looking for a wedding photographer!

    Beth is AMAZING! My favorite thing about her is that she knows how to get the best shots, and she'll go above and beyond to do so. She is direct, which was really great for my husband and I, because she told us what to do and where to go (with our input, of course) and because of her knowledge of lighting, body movements and shapes, etc, we ended up with amazing shots that are so incredibly beautiful. Even if you are a little shy, like I am, she makes you feel very comfortable and makes the experience of having your photos taken so much fun. She genuinely enjoys seeing the love you and your partner have, and wants to capture it as beautifully as she can. She is extremely helpful throughout the entire day and evening. I recommend doing an engagement shoot with her as well, so she can get to know you and your partner and how you interact in front of the camera. We loved our experience with Beth, and couldn't be happier.

    Beth was an amazing photographer and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience with her. We had a bad situation with a previous photographer who decided to move last minute, and Beth swooped in to save the day. She was quick to respond, took her time even with the engagement shoot, and made effort to get to know us as a couple. At the wedding she was ON IT, directing people, gathering them at he right time, being assertive without being scary. After formal shots were done, she blended right in and wasn’t invasive—you barely knew she was there. Oh, and the pictures came out AWESOME. We will cherish them for the rest of our lives. She caught the love, laughter, and fun, and most importantly, the spirit of our wedding. I highly recommend her!

    From the moment Beth and her team arrived at the hotel to the very last photo, they were unbelievable. Beth took control but did it in such a professional and compassionate way that was simply amazing. At one point in midst of family photo complexity, we overheard Beth and her team talking about making sure my parents didn't stay out in the cold given their age. We also walked out of the bridal room right before the guests were arriving and saw Beth talking to our 14 year old son about his camera. At that critical moment in time when the wedding was beginning, Beth took time to help him. We are so grateful that she did that for him ... really remarkable. Beth and her team also blended in seamlessly with the guests and always seemed to be on the spot for photo opportunities. As if this isn't enough reason to love her, the photos were outstanding, really outstanding, capturing moments for us that we will always treasure.

    That was amazing from beginning to end. She was responsive to all my nervous bride concerns in a timely manner. We loved working with her she even took the time to meet with us and do a photo shoot so she got to know us better. On our wedding day she was there for all the important photographs but was amazing at all the candid shots. Thank you Beth for making our day even more Special!

    Beth was AMAZING before, during and after our wedding. She took the time with us before our wedding to get us comfortable in front of a camera, as neither of us like our photos taken. Beth was extremely responsive to emails and all of our requests. During the wedding she was wonderful to work with. She took breath taking photos of the whole event from beginning to end, capturing the feelings of the day perfectly! We are sooooo pleased with the photos we received (which there were a TON) and glad that we chose her to capture our day.
    We chose to have a Beth bring a second shooter to our wedding. I will never regret the decision to spend the extra money to have her. She was wonderful as well and captured candid behind the scene photos we may never have gotten with only one photographer.

    Beth was amazing! She is a true visionary and amazing to work with. The final product is astounding. She finds beauty in the moments no one else sees and always goes the extra mile for the perfect shot. Her excitement and passion are infectious and as a result she captures the most honest and heartfelt moments. I am so very happy we found Beth, and recommend her to any and all seeking photos they will cherish forever.

    We are exceptionally pleased with Candidly Beth Photography! The entire experience from first consultation to follow up after our wedding has been both personal and professional. Beth held an engagement photo shoot with us which was brilliant. We gained familiarity with her her and with being photographed at that time. This made our wedding day natural and effortless. Our wedding collection is outstanding! It is the perfect match of formal pictures and candid. She seemingly effortlessly captured the essence of our whimsical and elegant day! Beth and her assistant, Laura, worked together brilliantly. The photos we requested were taken and their artistry was beyond imaginable. Beth has an innate knack of reaching all people in a wedding including young, special needs, elderly, to achieve remarkable results. She sees the opportunity for the perfect snap and achieves it. We are delighted and recommend Candidly Beth for your special event.

    I cannot say enough amazing things about Beth, Evan and their team. They helped capture memories my husband and I will cherish forever. They never stopped being professional, but also stay "out of the way" so that you can enjoy your day with natural and candid photos. Beth put time and thought into picking out locations for our stages photos that were absolutely stunning. Even when emergency responders had to be called on our wedding day not once, but twice, they handled each situation with such care and understanding. They were able to stay calm, keep us calm, and finally get back to work when the situations passed. I will cherish every memory they helped us make, and highly recommend them for your special day.

    My fiance and I did our engagement shoot with Beth and it was a wonderful experience. Beth was very opened and friendly and made the process easy and fun. I can't wait to see our photos and more importantly our wedding day photos. I know Beth will capture all of our special moments!

    Beth is a true professional! I talked with a lot of different photographers trying to find the perfect one. I was drawn to Beth by her calm personality, magnitude of experience, and very reasonable pricing. She was absolutely amazing to work with on my wedding day. She was there early to get special shots of dress and accessories, and picked the perfect spot for our first look. We got all the mandatory pictures done very quickly and kept on schedule the entire day. She was unobtrusive during the ceremony and reception, and still managed to get amazing shots. She got all the pictures that I asked of her and more. I received all of my images (close to 1000!) two weeks later, and they are absolutely amazing! I couldn't have asked for a better photographer.

    We chose Beth and Evan to be our photographers after seeing some of the work last summer. They have a beautiful style that truly captures the emotion of the event, and the photos have a truly timeless feel to them. It was exactly what we were looking for.
    Beth was just amazing on our wedding day. Evan got very sick last minute (it was the first wedding he had to miss in over 90 weddings), but Beth had her son fill in and everything went seamlessly. We never had to worry about the situation or about how the photos would turn out. When Beth arrived at my house in the morning I had just gotten upset about something silly, and Beth was the one who brought me back down to earth and got everything rolling. The whole day she was professional and easy to work with. My mom and mother in law had requested a lot of different group shots and Beth made it very easy and relaxed, and during the ceremony and reception, you barely even knew she was there. All of our pictures (both posed and candid) are absolutely beautiful.
    Overall, we had a wonderful experience. We’re now picking out photos for our album and it’s been difficult to narrow down our favorites because there are so many! In addition to the Pinterest-worthy beautiful shots, Beth captured our emotions and those of our families and friends, memories which will become more and more important years down the road. Thank you so much for capturing our day so beautifully Beth!

    Beth and her team photographed my wedding on 4/25/15. All I can say is wow! The photos that she captureed of our day are beyond anything that I've expected. I've already gotten comments from friends, family, and acquaintances that the photos are stunning and I couldn't agree more.
    Beth really knows how to use light and the environment to get the best possible shots and this is evidenced by her beautiful work.
    One of the selling points for us was the beautiful customized wedding albums that Beth offers to her couples. If you meet with her at her studio you will see what I mean. She has great ideas to put together a lasting collection of your favorite photos.
    I didn't really know what to expect, but Beth met with my husband and I prior to the event to discuss our expectations and this really helped to calm my nerves. The day of the event she was able to keep us on schedule and we were able to finish all of our portraits and family pictures prior to the ceremony. She was able to direct my wedding party but still kept the atmosphere fun and laid back (which is hard with 15 people!). One of the groomsmen even commented that it was the most fun he ever had taking pictures!
    Beth and her husband captured the emotions of our ceremony and the absolute joy of our reception which included a large group of friends from Skidmore. She gave us the great idea of getting a Skidmore banner to take a picture with all the Skidmore grads and our reception and I love the result!
    I am very happy with our choice to use Candidly Beth for our wedding photography and I would definitely recommend this business to other couples for their big day!

    Beth and Evan did an incredible job photographing our wedding. The results were amazing and they captured the overall emotions and feelings of the entire event. Their cost was very reasonable and they were true professionals through the whole process. We felt we were back at the wedding and reception when we looked at the pictures. They truly tell the story of the whole day. I highly recommend Candidly Beth for your wedding.

    Beth and Evan are amazing! I cannot recommend them highly enough. We weren't planning to do engagement photos, but Beth pointed out to us that she really likes to get to know her couples before their wedding -- so that the wedding day is not the first day everyone is getting to know one another. I had never thought of it that way, and we were so happy to have found someone who showed a true philosophy behind what they do. Beth and Evan made us feel so comfortable, so at ease...and they're just so pro. On the day of the wedding, they check in with you, they speak with you when absolutely necessary, but they know when to duck to the side and let you do...whatever it is you need to do! They are kind and patient, yet firm and efficient, making the most out of your time together. I absolutely love their approach to candid shots. They're a dynamic duo...highly recommend!!

    We simply cannot say enough about Beth and Evan. They really helped make our day work. I was very nervous about spending so much on photography for just one day but I will be the first to say that Beth and Evan were worth every penny!

    The engagement session they do let's you get to know them and their style before the big day when your brain is overwhelmed. They provided my then fiance and I with a bunch of tips to ensure that we would get the best possible pictures. We were able to relax and have fun with the whole process. And Beth and Evan were able to capture that joy in our pictures.

    Fast forward to the big day and that prep session made everything so much easier. We knew we could trust Beth and Evan to take care of matters - we could just focus on us and what we wanted to experience. Beth and Evan captured it all. And what I loved was how well they blended into the background - when my husband and I were reviewing our pictures I was surprised at how many special moments Beth and Evan managed to photograph and I didn't even know they were there.

    Bottomline - these are the professionals to which you want to entrust this day. They make you the priority and they take care of you. Their quality is top notch. And they tell your wedding story with their pictures - my family still remarks at how much joy and fun and love shines from our pictures. Exactly what we wanted.

    I'll start by saying that having great wedding photos was the thing I cared most about for our wedding. Beth and Evan exceeded my every expectation.
    It was a pleasure getting to know Beth and Evan better during the engagement pictures. What I liked most about them is how laid back and easy to work with they are.
    On our wedding day, we did ''First Look''. They captured that special moment between the two of us, seeing each other for the first time. We had a traditional Greek Church ceremony with reception that followed. They caught every special moment and we couldn't be happier with the results.
    The most common compliment we hear about our photos are that they are "magical." I think Beth and Evan really know how to work with the lighting, and that gave our photos the whimsical look we love. They also captured a lot of sweet, natural moments of our day. I can't wait to pick my favorites for the album!
    I would definitely recommend them to friends, and still smile like a huge goofball every time I look through our photos.

    Beth was absolutely wonderful to work with. The thing that really appealed to us about her portfolio were the gorgeous candid shots. The pictures that my husband and I really wanted to keep and cherish were the ones of our friends and family partying and having a great time, and she delivered big time. She also did a wonderful job on the formal shots, of course!

    I think her portfolio speaks for itself, but more than the pictures, Beth is one of the best photographers I've ever worked with. Neither my husband or myself feel extremely comfortable getting our picture taken, but she knew exactly what she was doing and how to direct us to get the best shots possible. She has a very calm and encouraging presence, which is exactly what you need on your wedding day. She is very professional and has this down to both a science and an art -- I highly recommend her.

    Word can’t even begin to describe how happy we were with Beth and Evan. Throughout the planning process I knew that we made the right decision because Beth was so knowledgeable and patient. After all, I had no idea how much planning went into a wedding and Beth was incredibly helpful. Having Beth and Evan at the wedding was wonderful. They are both so experienced. Sometimes you forget they are there. They do a great job at letting you go about your day while still capturing the moment. My friends and family really enjoyed them and Beth was so patient with my family (who can be a bit crazy at times). The other great thing about Candidly Beth is because of their experience they have worked with a lot of other vendors before. They save you a ton of time in connecting all of your vendors because they already have great relationships with them. Above all….the pictures! The pictures came out beautifully! We continue to get so many compliments on how amazing they are. The funny part is that after the wedding was over I was bummed that I was no longer working with Beth and Evan! I will have to find an excuse to have another event that needs to be photographed! Thank you so much for capturing our day in such an amazing way!

    Working with Beth and Evan and their team was a highlight of our wedding. From when I first met Beth, I knew she would be a calming presence at the wedding and was exactly right. Our engagement session beforehand really gave us a chance to get a feel for working with Beth and Evan. Then the day of, they arrived early, had scoped out the venue for an hour before even I arrived, and had planned the best places for our formal photos despite the rain. They were organized, efficient, and such a pleasure to work with - throughout the wedding, Beth was my source of "what to do next" and "where to be." The photos were beautiful, natural, and by far my favorite expenditure when it came to our big day. Would work with Candidly Beth again in a heartbeat.

    The photography for our wedding was very very important to me. I knew i wanted someone very talented to manage that day. Beth's passion for her art really caught my attention when i first sat down with her for a meeting. She is truly a professional. Beth and her husband Evan, made us feel very comfortable. Our engagement shoot went wonderful and we loved the photos. The wedding photos are AMAZING! there are too many for me to choose a few (which honestly is all you really need at the end of the day) they all just came out so well! We couldnt be happier. Beth got so many great candids, she managed the day so well making sure we got everything we discussed and she made everyone feel comfortable. I went to a wedding a few weeks later and the photographer kept asking the bride, 'ok what do you want next? ok whats next?" and i just thought that was so unprofessional and way too overwhelming for the bride. The photographer has done this SO many times. Discuss everything you want before the wedding day. you dont want to be thinking about it or making decisions day of, you're too likely to forget something. Overall a really great experience working with Beth and Evan. They are very reasonable in costs and well worth it! Not like the other jokers out there charging 10K+ for your wedding day photos. use that money for the honeymoon :) Thanks Beth - you truly are one of a kind and we will be using you for other special occassions to come!
