What People
are saying
“ I am SO THANKFUL that I found Shelby. Beyond being a gifted photographer, she's a wonderful person to work with. The first time I contracted with her to take marketing photos she set me at ease from the moment she arrived. She's an expert at gently guiding her subjects to capture the best light or angle. I find that feeling confident and having fun with a photo shoot makes for a much better finished product and Shelby creates that positive space. Since our first shoot, Shelby has photographed several other lifestyle shoots, my engagement photos and she even traveled to shoot my wedding. I think that speaks volumes right there. It goes without saying that I recommend her services to anyone. Professional, warm and caring, she is a gem.”

Shelby was our photographer for both our engagement photos and wedding photos. In short, Shelby is professional, talented, easy to work with, reliable, and makes you feel at ease in front of the camera- therefore capturing your best and true self.
We first hired Shelby for our engagement photos as a trial run to see if we liked her as a photographer and if we would want to continue to work with her for our wedding photographer. After the photoshoot, before we even got our final, edited products, we were quite positive we would hire her for our wedding.
Aside from her attention to detail, lighting, and capturing moments of pure happiness and love, my husband and I particularly enjoyed how Shelby took some time to get to know us before our photo shoot. Having Shelby know who we were, having easy conversation with us, made for a better photo shoot. We were more relaxed and this translates in the pictures. Shelby is also up for anything! We trotted her around town for our engagement photo shoot, a park, a beach, and even our home. We really wanted some pictures with our pet and where we live and SHELBY MADE THIS WORK! In addition to working with our ideas, Shelby came armed with ideas and props of her own to add on to our own and innovate the photoshoot into a fun and creative process.
For our wedding, Shelby took a whole day to be with us. She captured all the moments we wanted to remember and more. She took the time and effort to make it so when we look through our wedding photos, we can recall each moment vividly. Our wedding was outside, in the evening into the night, and the photos still look wonderful (I was originally concerned about lighting). During our group photoshoots, Shelby was on top of her game, organized, and kept things moving at a nice pace so we didn’t have to be outside in the sun too much, and could relax before the ceremony. Aside from being a fantastic photographer on our wedding day, Shelby was also a great support. She was armed with bobby pins, tape, safety pins, and other ‘emergency kit’ type items. She was not only capturing our day, she was there for us. This meant so much to my husband and I. It also decreased our stress levels a ton! Believe it or not, I came away from my wedding, not stressed and having a blast! This was in part due to Shelby.
For time table post photoshoot, Shelby was quite fast with our turn around, and kept us in the loop about where she was in the process (for both our wedding and engagement photos). The final products we received from Shelby were outstanding. The amount of genuine compliments we received from family, friends, and even strangers were unreal. We were even told our photos should be sent to a magazine. To me that signifies the quality of photos we got from Shelby. Not only are they beautiful, they are high quality and print beautifully as well.
In sum, we will be hiring Shelby again for another photoshoot (when we need one). In fact, we might just make up a reason to have pictures taken just to work with her again. If you are debating hiring her, just do it. You will not regret your experience working with her or the product of the photos.
