Welcome to my Blogging World!

Need a little color in your life? Bienvenidos! I'm Beth, thanks so much for visiting my blog! I'm an Oklahoma
City based photographer and travel all over to shoot.  I'm also a mom of two crazy boys, love to travel, run, drink wine, get lost in music, dance, and talk to strangers!  I use only available light, shoot on-location,
and 90% of my work is with kids. My JOB is to make art and
meet amazingly unique people.   It's ridiculous how lucky I am!

My sole purpose is for my images to say, 'WOW'.  I want images that make you feel!  I love a life of color coupled with whimsical modernism and work hard to show that off in my photography.  Life will
be different tomorrow so make sure and remember today :) Best ~B

My favorite Paisley.. Oklahoma City Children’s Photographer

Wanted to share a few of this little gal… I shot her a few months back and she recently just turned ONE… time flies – she truly is such a photogenic little one. Funny though on our last shoot she wanted NOTHING to do with the camera, she was quite upset we were making her sit and smile, she’s discovered this cool thing called walking and she wanted to walk on out the building far far away from me :) that’s ok, I don’t take it too personally, not when I still got some adorable shots. I don’t normally proof pacifier shots, but this one…couldn’t resist! And the one of her showing her distaste for the photo shoot…kinda hilarious. I mean when i throw fits, people DEF call me out on it!


And a few months ago….

Lil’ Dude – Oklahoma City Newborn Photography

Another perfect little newborn. Haven’t had many boys lately… this guy made it easy on me! So easy when you have a house FULL of designer goodies. Divine Newborn Design ;) Eat your heart out David Chihuly.

Monday Photo of the Day..Oklahoma City Children’s photograher

Little Ms. Grace

Thursday Photo of the Day…

Love this little man, he is ONE :) I’ve been shooting little Sam since he was a few days old. I went to their home to do his one year shoot and he was a little champ, esp. considering it was nap time for him. Thought he made a much cuter centerpiece on their kitchen table than just artichokes in a bowl alone – much more edible this way ;)

Wed NB of the day…

This time of year, it seems I’m shooting nothing but newborns…so fun :) I have twins next week! A few from this little lady… She was one of my smiliest newborns to date!
