Choosing a photographer for our wedding was not an easy task. I had a huge list of photographers I wanted to contact based on quality of photos, pricing, experience, and knowledge of my venue (Marblegate Farm). I wanted to find that classic “bright and airy” look that would show off the beautiful, natural greenery/floral of my venue. Finally after hours of searching, I found Shane and Beth with Shane Hawkins Photography! What a relief because they were wonderful and so easy going from the very beginning. They even traveled all the way to Max Patch (on the top of the mountains) in very cold weather for my engagement session! They were so down to earth and made the entire session a breeze. Once I received my engagement photos I instantly knew I made the best decision for my wedding photographers. THEY WERE PERFECT! Fast forward to my wedding day and this is where Shane and Beth absolutely shine! They are the perfect team and put everyone at ease on what can be a very hectic day. Shane will perfect each shot and Beth ensures the brides (hair, makeup, dress/veil, and bouquet) are perfectly in place. They went as far as ensuring I had a water at one point when I started feeling very light headed due to the heat in June! They are just so sweet and you will not be disappointed by choosing them for your photographers for your wedding! This is a huge decision and you will take comfort knowing they are the best choice! Your photos will be stunning!!

Shane Hawkins photography was probably one of the best things about our wedding! I cannot get over how GORGEOUS all of our photos turned out. They captured every moment I asked for and then some! Looking at the photos makes me feel like I’m reliving every aspect of my favorite day! Shane and Beth were so incredible to work with and so professional. Beth assisted me and my mom secure me in my dress, they repined my bustle after it broke, & they even went and got our first cocktail for us as the new Mr. & Mrs… I mean what other photographer would go that extra mile?! Needless to say they are the best of the best and I would recommend them over and over again!

Shane and Beth are the best! They made our destination wedding so simple! Working with them from states away was so much easier than we could’ve ever asked for! They eased every nerve up until the day of, then the day of our wedding exceeded every expectation by miles!

We could not have asked for anyone better to capture our most perfect day. Shane and Beth are always so kind and so fun to be around! Every photo that was captured was absolutely beautiful and perfect. We can’t wait to use them for the future!

Shane Hawkins came as a recommendation from our planner. They were so professional and easy to work with through the entire day. They had great communication with each other and us before, during, and after the wedding. I love the aesthetic of their photos and am so happy with how my wedding photos turned out!

I cannot say enough great things about Shane and Beth! Shane took our engagement pictures and they both worked together on our wedding day. When looking for a photographer to do either of these pictures, I wanted someone who did not do so much editing on the photos that it looked unnatural; the brightness and natural look of the photographs taken make them beautiful in my opinion. Shane and Beth are so kind and truly take their time getting to know you while they're working. They also were willing to assist in any other way they could (like bustling my dress after the ceremony). Not only do they do great work, but they are great people and I highly recommend them!

Shane and Beth were amazing to work with! They were very detail oriented on our wedding day and captured the love and excitement better than I thought possible. Their pictures were beautiful and we are so glad we got to have them be our photographers for the day. Highly recommend!!

Posing for pictures often feels very awkward and leads to unpleasant smiles, but Shane and Beth made us feel very comfortable and relaxed so that our engagement and wedding photo shoots felt natural, and even fun! From the sweet moments like the first dance and toasts, to the fun moments like dancing and the friend who ripped his pants, we are impressed and touched by how many wonderful memories they captured at our wedding.

Shane & Beth are a power duo! After seeing them beautiful capture a friend’s wedding, I couldn’t imagine anyone else shooting my wedding and they hit it out of the park! When Covid changed our plans big time, Shane and Beth were quick to pivot from our 150 person wedding to 25 person wedding and captured it absolutely beautifully. They give great posing direction and make you feel super comfortable! Would definitely recommend them to anyone!

I searched long and hard for a photographer whose photos were “light and bright” but not washed out, had experience at my wedding venue (Marblegate Farm), and were reasonably priced for the industry. I am so thankful I chose Shane & Beth. They are well-loved and respected by both my wedding planner and the venue coordinator and it is no surprise as to why. Not only are the photos absolutely gorgeous and masterfully edited, they are one of the sweetest couples to work with. I love Shane’s attention to detail from a photography standpoint while Beth ensures that your hair/dress/veil/flowers are perfectly situated (very important to me as these things make or break a photo!) They are also such a calming presence on your wedding day and make sure to capture plenty of photos without making you feel stressed or rushed. For photos you will cherish for the rest of your life, you absolutely want to choose the right photographer. I highly recommend Shane Hawkins!
