Betcher-Bottom Photography

Katy is amazing I had scheduled her a couple months out for a surprise proposal. We are from out of state and I needed so many ideas for Restaurants, Activities, etc. I was bouncing ideas off of her and she came up with pretty much the whole scene. she found me the perfect beach even made props that had my future fiancé’s name on it as well as candles and a blanket to enjoy the sunset! Definitely an awesome experience and the easiest person to work with. The Photos are BEAUTIFUL!!! If you need a photographer look no further. She is the perfect person to help you with ideas and settings for that special moment.

Thank you Katy for the amazing work you did for us! Who would have known that an ad online would deliver priceless pictures! You made it so easy & comfortable for my family & myself, not to mention you drove over 2 hours to take Nathan’s newborn pictures! Thank you again & can’t wait to work with you again, hopefully soon!

I found Betcher Bottom Photo and Katy by pure luck on Facebook and I’m so glad I did! She not only set up the venue, made the DIY aisle details and my bouquet, arranged the officiant, and photographed the entire event perfectly with the small amount of time and details that she had to work with. I am so pleased with the way everything turned out and I cannot stop looking at all the beautiful photos we got. I cannot wait to have her do our maternity and newborn sessions.
Thank you Katy!

I have worked with Katy for a couple of years now, from creative projects, to artistic collaborations, to even my recent engagement photos! She is awesome all the way through! Not only are her photos great quality, but she is an amazing person so it makes the experience even better. She truly cares about the people she works with and takes pictures of. It’s not about «having clients» to her, it’s about creating memorable moments that people will cherish forever. Katy is fantastic about being really involved with her photoshoots, she becomes the go-​to for advice on local scenery, prop usage, and even wardrobe feedback. For every time I’ve worked with her she always has great input on where we should shoot for a certain theme or look we’re going for, and always brings helpful props to enhance the photos even more. For our engagement photos she created an entire scene on the beach with vintage suitcases, candles, and even made a customized wooden slab with our wedding date! I thought was beyond thoughtful as well as artistic. As for pricing, honestly you can’t find a better deal on the peninsula. Katy is a professional, but does not have interest in sucking your wallet dry. She is truly a fabulous person and photographer, I highly recommend her!!!

I first met Katy when my father hired her to do family photos. The photos turned out fantastically! My boyfriend and I decided to get couples photos done and Katy was our first choice. She has great knowledge of the surrounding areas including Monterey, Carmel, Pacific Grove, and Seaside. We had great couples photos! The timing was perfect and we took our last pictures right as the sun was setting over the ocean. When I became pregnant later that year it only made sense to call Katy to do our maternity and newborn photos. Of course they all turned out amazing as well! The prices are reasonable and there are a variety of options avaliable. Katy is an amazingly talented photographer and is great at using and even creating props. She always has phenomenal lighting and she is always respectful of her clients personal tastes and style. I love that before every shoot she will tell me ideas and let me share mine. She is extremely flexible and even is willing to travel for a small fee. Overall I would recommend hiring Katy for any type of photography needs!

I am so grateful for the amazing photos Katy did for our wedding. So much of the wedding was DIY and I considered just relying on photos from family, but I truly feel like Katy’s photos were the best money spent in the whole wedding. She perfectly captured my theme and made the colors pop beautifully like I wanted. I can’t say enough great things about her work, I want to tell everyone I know to go to her for everything! I will absolutely adore these photos forever.
