About

My name is Jaclyn, and I am the founder, owner and principle photographer of Jaclyn Shaw Photography. My home and my heart are nestled in Northeast Indiana, but I am always up for an adventure. I have wanderlust in my heart, so just tell me where I need to be! Not getting married in Indiana, or have a family that live in Fort Wayne? Not a problem - let's start talking and let me hear about what you have in mind. Between my 10+ years of experience, and your desire to tie the knot, I know we can come up with something amazing and uniquely "you." I'm here to make this not only about getting your photos taken, but about you and your fiance getting in your car when we're done with that engagement session, and having you say, "I can't believe how fun and incredibly easy that was." I have spent a lot of time working on perfecting my craft in order for you to be as comfortable, relaxed and authentic in front of my camera as you would be just sitting and chatting with me over a cup of coffee. Nowadays, weddings are more than a date - they are an event. They are flowers and place-cards. They are about gorgeously coordinated colors. They are about an entire day, where every detail is thought out. That's where I come in. When you're celebrating all of those anniversies in the years to come, I want you to be able to go back to your wedding photos, and remember not only your time & hard work to make it an amazing day, but to remember the way your dad looked at you for the first time in your wedding gown. How grandma was able to make it there for you, and was so in awe of you as she sits in the front row, witnessing your vows. And most importantly, how your spouse looks at you throughout the night. I'll be there for the details. The portraits. And every single moment in between.

Services Offered
I am available for weddings, elopements, and family photography throughout Northeast Indiana and worldwide. I enjoy meeting couples prior to their big day so every detail and special moment is vividly captured as you envision it. I offer several packages that may be altered to accommodate your needs, and additional options, such as multiple locations and a second photographer may be arranged. Other wedding services that I provide include the following:

  • Willingness to travel
  • Additional hours
  • Boudoir shoot
  • Engagement shoot
  • High-resolution images
  • Trash-the-dress
  • Wedding portraits
  • Woman-owned

Amazing Photos and an Amazing Photographer

We worked with Jaclyn and she was absolutley amazing in every way. She worked with us on pricing based on our needs. She was very responsive and met with us a few times to get to know us and to make sure we were all on the same page. The day of she was great, she accommodated all our requests. We honestly gave her total creative freedom to do what she thought was best and we couldn't be happier. We got the photos back timely even though it is the busy time of year for weddings. WE LOVE OUR PHOTOS.

Amazing, Incredible, and the BEST!

Jaclyn recently captured perfectly my husband and I’s wedding ceremony and reception! She was absolutely wonderful to work with. We weren’t able to meet with her much prior to the wedding, but she communicated so well and the day of went very smoothly thanks to her! Jaclyn is a very caring individual and truly has her client’s best interest! So many of our family and friends complimented how well she did the day of the wedding and all of them absolutely loved her photos she captured! She is very talented and you can tell she loves what she does. Her second shooter, Margot, was great as well! The two of them were a great team and truly made the day so so special! We will have those photos forever and thanks to Jaclyn they are perfect. One more thing— she always does sunset photos and let me tell you, they are SO beautiful!! Truly special that she can take anywhere and make it look breathtakingly great!

The best day of our lives, with the best photographer!

There aren't enough words to describe how Jaclyn made our wedding day so special. She was there from the beginning of us girls getting ready, making sure she got the perfect shot to encapsulate the process. She made sure to take detail photos of my veil, flowers, shoes, etc. Whatever things I forgot on my list of what I wanted photos of, she remembered. After we received the ceremony photos & reception photos, it's like we traveled back into time and we were right back at the wedding. Every emotion, detail, and dance were documented and we go back and look at our pictures constantly because of how beautiful they are. If you're looking for a photographer for your wedding, stop looking. Jaclyn is who you want.

More Than We Could Ever Have Asked For!

Jaclyn was absolutely spectacular! She made the whole process easy and comfortable! She worked with us to line up what we wanted and executed to perfection. She was flexible and had a great secondary photographer Margo (shout out to Margo). So fun so easy to work with and provided results better than we could have asked for!

Very impressed! Thanks Again!

Best experience ever!

Jaclyn is the absolute best! My plans changed for a couple different venues but Jaclyn was happy to travel wherever with us! She, without a doubt, agreed to travel to Tennessee with my husband and our family to capture our special day! She made our day go smoothly and captured the best moments! I cannot say enough great things about her!

Our Story told by Jaclyn

Getting married is full of lots of choices but one we were sure of was hiring Jaclyn. We wanted someone to tell our story through the pictures they took and she did not disappoint. One of the most important things to my wife was our wedding pictures, and they are stunning. You can see and feel the love between us and the love of family in each and everyone. We would highly recommend (and have) Jaclyn. We ended up with the perfect mix of pictures from the atmosphere, guests, and our family. As we look back (daily) at our pictures we are reminded of the beauty and love that was so prevalent on our most special of days.

The. Best. Photographer.

Jaclyn is truly a gem. Not only is she the most incredible photographer, but also the best human. She’s professional, yet personal and captured our story perfectly.

Great photographer highly recommend

I decided to get ready at home last minute and she was so accommodating to that without me even asking. My wedding photos turned awesome 🤩 I got so busy and distracted through the ceremony and reception that I forgot to take pictures with some of close friends , but later when I looked at my pictures found out that she had me all covered on taking pictures with my close friends when I was not looking 💓 very reasonable price, very professional and just love staring at the results and now forever memories ❤️

Truly Magical!

Jaclyn and Margo did a wonderful job! They helped make my day extra special and worked around the weather and what I wanted to get done. Jaclyn truly is special and all her work she has done for has never disappoints! I can't wait to see what our pictures look like because I know they are magical and will have captured all our special moments!

Completely comfortable

There is so much we could say about Jaclyn but there isn’t enough space. She immediately felt like a close friend from the first hand shake. My wife and I had to change our wedding date by an entire year and Jaclyn was willing to work with us on the dates for engagement pictures and the wedding. She understood and made it happen. I am not a picture person but she kept everything calm and natural which is exactly what I needed. We can’t wait for our next opportunity to work with her again.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
