timeless. real. authentic

Hello!

I’m Bethany, the photographer behind Southern Shots. I specialize in maternity, senior, lifestyle newborn, and family photography with a heartfelt approach centered on real connection and genuine emotion.

I believe the most meaningful images are often found in the in-between moments — the laughter, the tenderness, the movement, and the love that can’t be staged. My goal is to create a space where you can simply be together while I document your story in a way that feels natural, timeless, and true to you.

Every session is unique- just like you!


You have a vision for your session, but you’re not quite sure how to bring it all together — and that’s where I come in. From brainstorming ideas to creating a mood board and planning all the little details, I’m here to help turn your vision into something beautiful and true to you.

these are the days worth remembering

Why hire a family photographer?

Photographs are more than images — they are a way of preserving the people, emotions, and seasons of life that pass far too quickly. Long after a moment is gone, a beautiful photograph allows you to return to it: the way your child looked at you, the laughter you didn’t realize you’d miss, the quiet details that made this chapter yours. Hiring a professional photographer means choosing to have those memories captured with care, intention, and artistry, so they can be held onto for years to come.
