Family Photography

Family photos that look like the people in them

I'm Betsy Belote, the photographer behind Photos by B4, and I've been photographing families across Delaware, Ohio and Central Ohio for over a decade. As a mom of four, I know the difference between a family photo that's stiff and posed and one that actually captures how your kids are right now: the inside jokes, the piggyback rides, the quiet moment before everyone gets the giggles.

Every family session is on location and shot in natural light, whether that's an apple orchard in the fall, a downtown Delaware sidewalk, a favorite park, or your own backyard. You'll come away with a hand-edited digital gallery you can download, share, and print, and I'll help you pick the setting and timing that flatter your family best.

Why Photos by B4

Easy sessions, images you'll treasure

Natural, un-stiff direction

Gentle prompts instead of frozen poses, so even the wiggliest little ones look like themselves.

Local to Delaware & Central Ohio

I know the light and the best spots across the area, from orchards to downtown to your favorite park.

Hand-edited galleries

Every image is individually edited and delivered in an online gallery, usually within two to three weeks.

Investment

Simple pricing, no surprises

Bronze, Silver and Gold family sessions, each ending in a hand-edited digital gallery. Moving up a tier buys more time, more locations and more final images, which helps when little ones need a snack break halfway through.

Kind Words

Here's What Families Are Saying!

Real reviews from families across Delaware and Central Ohio.

  • ★★★★★
    Highly recommend!! There are not enough words to describe how wonderful these photo sessions were. Betsy was so easy to work with and helped create a custom package for senior pictures in the fall and cap & gown pictures in the spring. She also didnt mind traveling to 3 locations for each shoot so that we could take a few walks down memory lane. These are not just your typical senior portraits, these are custom memories capturing all that emcompasses your child's high school experience.

    She did my sons senior photos and was amazing! Her price was perfect for our budget, she had great ideas for locations to take photos at, and she was on time and professional. We absolutely love all the photos she took and could never narrow down to even just a few of our favorites because they were all that great. Highly recommend and would absolutely use her again and again.

    My son had a senior session with Betsy!! What a wonderful experience we had! We wanted some baseball pictures at the ball field and then some in a park setting. I asked for suggestions of a place to take pictures in woods. She suggested a beautiful location that was perfect and exactly what my son wanted! The pictures turned out amazing and the customer service getting them was outstanding!! I was looking for an affordable option and I found that but found so much more!! I highly recommend Betsy for your photographer needs!! You will not be disappointed!!
