chasing perfection?

not gonna find that here.

What a way to open, right? But it's the truth. I don't believe in creating an image or story that doesn't exist in the real world. What I do believe in is authenticity, vulnerability, and emotion. I believe in upfront pricing, quick turnaround and a unique experience catered to you. If that sounds like your kind of person and if you are looking for a photographer near Alexandria, MN, I'm your girl!

what i

believe in.

Wondering what it is that sets Spirit & Soul apart? Here's a glimpse.

01.

upfront pricing

All my sessions include the specified number of edited digital images with all rights - no hidden costs or upsells unless you choose to upgrade your gallery! I believe in transparency from the get-go.

02.

client choice

I always edit more than the allotted amount of images so that you, the client, can choose the images that speak to you most. More photos per session are always available with a package upgrade. 

03.

quick turnaround

Your time matters to me, so I prioritize quality editing and timely delivery. I don't believe in making a client wait for weeks on end for their images. Full galleries are *typically* delivered in 1-2 weeks.

why trust me

with your story?

I won't lie, you have your choice of many talented photographers in this area. In some cases, I may refer you to them if I feel they could serve you better! My goal is to provide a photo experience where you feel heard and seen. I am not a stand-still-smile-and-say-cheese type of photographer. I want to capture the real-life moments for you:

Families

It's never a bad time for family photos. Don't worry too much about that uncooperative toddler, as those may just make the best memories sometimes.

Couples

Capturing your relationship is important, whether it's because of an engagement or just for the heck of it. I love working with couples and capturing each one's unique vibe.

Maternity

Whether your first or your fifth, pregnancy is a big deal and is worth remembering. Book photos for yourself, or snuggle up with your significant other.

some

kind words.

"Beth took my vision and totally surpassed my hopes and dreams! I am seriously in love with every single photo she took."

Whitney G.

“Beth captured the very essence of our wedding and our love for each other and our family. I can feel it in the photos. It is clear to me that Beth has a gift. She is truly an artist."

Melissa B.

“Beth was so easy to work with, even with a larger group (including keeping the attention of a two year old). She truly is passionate about what she does and it shows through her photos!"

you want to make some magic.

but something is stopping you.

I've asked around, and most often, one of three things are stopping someone from having photos taken: 1) Worry surrounding physical appearance and weight 2) Anxiety around the behavior of children 3) The financial investment.

These are real, valid concerns. And while I can't promise an instant fix, I CAN promise you I have been there myself. I'm human. I will do my best to meet you where you are at, to give you suggestions on wardrobe, to chase your kiddos around for smiles, and to create a payment plan that works. These obstacles shouldn't keep you from commemorating this season of life.
