Bethany ‘Punkster’
Bethany 'Punkster' started her photography business in 2013 while she was still a high school sophomore. Bethany went on to attend Emerson College (CO 19'), making history by becoming their first ever student to graduate with a Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) degree in Photography. Specializing in both on-location and studio sessions, she offers clients an innovative approach that balances classic portraiture with a fresh, artistic twist. Her love for shooting on film, whether it be 35mm, or Polaroid 600, infuses her work with rich textures and timeless elegance. During her career, Bethany has had the honor of photographing people from all walks of life in various locations. Everyone from her childhood babysitter photographed at a neighborhood park to Grammy award winning musicians during her time in the photographers pit at Boston Calling. She has had the joy of running personal exhibitions as well as having her work featured by organizations such as Zumix and Lesley College. She frequently creates artistic collaborations with other artists and models, and finds the most pleasure when set building is involved! Her favorite personal passion under the photography umbrella is shooting on film (35mm and Polaroid 600). She loves the tangibility of it, and as a result film is the only medium she photographs on in much of her personal time and travels. Bethany had the nickname “Punky” when she was a singer/drummer in a band many moons ago. The name later evolved to “Punkster”, the name she now uses. Bethany 'Punkster' is a huge animal lover and a proud cat mom. The journey of my life has been extremely fulfilling to say the least for her. Bethany looks forward to freezing more memories in time, and capturing the edge in every moment!
