Featured Business: Betsy’s Photography

It’s always nice to be able to refer you to businesses and vendors that we enjoy working with. Betsy’s Photography, located in Dexter, Michigan, is one such business. While owner Betsy Finn spends most of her time photographing weddings and portraits, we were fortunately able to commission her to create a portrait of our group, Westside Trio. She did a great job and created an image unique to our group!

When photographing weddings (one of the main types of events we play at), Betsy Finn is very professional and unobtrusive. Her shooting style is natural and does not distract from the main focus of the wedding ceremony or reception — the bride and groom.

If you’re looking for a photographer to photograph your wedding, we definitely recommend learning more about Betsy’s Photography!

About Betsy’s Photography:
