Arrie Bates Photography LLC

I am a 25 years old based out of Dayton, Ohio. A wife to the best guy in the world and now a first time mama to a beautiful girl! First time I picked up a camera was almost 8 years ago for fun in a yearbook class. I knew this was something I really enjoyed but didn't see myself doing anything with it outside of high school. I put the camera down for awhile but now that I have picked things back up, I can't get enough! It truly fills my cup and brings so much joy to my life!

The thing that has kept me hooked on this passion is the fact that there is always room for growth and to be better. There are so many different avenues to explore. Allowing others to see themselves through a different lens has been one of my greatest joys in this business. When someone gasps at their photo or a family is full of giggles because they are so happy with what they see my heart is overjoyed. I want this to be more about just photos. I want to give you memories that you look back on and cherish forever! Here is to making that happen! Can't wait to see you soon!
