Shelby is a fantastic photographer

Shelby is a fantastic photographer: The pictures are beautiful, the pricing is good and she's friendly, bubbly & very helpful.

Shelby did a few meetings over the phone and in person with my wife & I to get to know us and understand our relationship. She was really good at helping us figure out what kind of photos we wanted, as well as how the wedding would play out in general. She even offered to do an engagement photoshoot for us at no extra cost. She is very professional overall.

At the wedding Shelby went above and beyond. She saw that we were flustered and so helped direct all the attendees to their seats for the ceremony, and then got amazing pictures throughout without distracting anyone. Once the reception started she happily gathered everybody we wanted to get pictures with and had us pose quick & easy for lots of different good shots together. Afterwards she took my wife and I through the park to take couple pictures of us, and let me tell you Shelby had a great eye for forest shoots: She posed us throughout the woods getting dozens of gorgeous photos and didn't take too long doing it so we wouldn't miss much of the reception. Then when we got back to the reception she took general pictures of the party, decorations and cake cutting. To top it off she got along really well with our officiant and it was nice seeing them work together.

Altogether we got way more than our money's worth from Shelby's work. Our wedding pictures are beautiful, it was fun to work with her and she's very professional.

Shelby is amazing!

Shelby is amazing! She photographed our micro-wedding this summer and the pictures turned out so beautiful! Shelby was incredibly friendly and kind, and she made us feel really comfortable. She was also very professional in handling our fluctuating wedding plans and changing safety precautions with Covid. We highly recommend working with Shelby!

She surpassed my expectations and did exactly what I asked of for my photos

Shelby being family was INITIALLY the reason I had sought her out years ago, HOWEVER even though she was somewhat new to wedding photography at the time... She has such a huge heart and because of that, she treats your special moments as if they were her own, and it shows in her photos. It has been a privilege to say she photographed my wedding and to share her content with those I know.

Shelby is so much fun and is extremely easy to be comfortable around

She has an amazing eye for the perfect shots. She’s photographed huge milestone in my life! My husband and I decided to just elope last minute and she was the first person I thought of and she called off all her other plans to come and capture that special day for us and oh my gosh! I am absolutely in love with all the shots she got and I still obsess over them, we also get so many compliments on them! I highly recommend her for any event you need or just for fun photos! She is extremely talented and a blast to be around which I find to be so important!

Hire her! You won’t regret it!!!

Shelby did my wedding photos almost 2 years ago, and she was amazing! The photos were incredible, we have several hanging on our walls. She showed up early, was respectful, nice, funny, and made the usually awkward posing experience, comfortable. I recommend her to anyone who wants one less thing to worry about on their wedding day. We got the pictures back super fast, and she always responded to me quickly. Hire her! I promise you won’t regret it.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
