    Wedding Photographer

    We are so happy we booked Rachel for our wedding day! Rachel was an amazing photographer and we loved having her capture our special day!! She was so easy to communicate with and was always super speedy with her responses. She made our whole day run so smoothly and kept everyone on track. She took a lot of stress off of my shoulders for the wedding day! She made our whole group feel so comfortable in front of the camera. Our pictures turned out so amazing and she captured every second of our big day so we can relive it!!

    Best decision!

    Booking Rachel was the best decision for us! I love her style of timeless and classic photography. She is quick to respond and is flexible! At the beginning she sent us a list of vendors which was a huge help and made our planning a breeze, something I appreciated and shows how Rachel truly cares about her clients and goes above and beyond for them. Booking with her was super easy!

    Great wedding photographer with memorable photos

    Rachel captured our wedding day perfectly. The photos were bright and captured the happiness we felt on our special day. She is very kind, organized, willing to answer any question, and manages an assistant photographer well. Having an engagement session where we learned about photography posing made photos day of less stressful. Rachel's wedding planning guide included every detail and was the basis of our wedding planning/organization. We appreciated how Rachel coordinated with our other vendors and venue to help the day run smoothly. Our friends and family also loved the photos. We were able to access and share our photos very easily.

    Rachel is a rockstar!

    Rachel is the absolute best! If we could do our wedding over again, we would pick Rachel every time. She was so helpful through out the entire planning process, helping with our timeline and giving us recommendations. On the day of, she was a rockstar! She kept us right on track while also making the most of every moment and capturing every detail. Our pictures turned out amazing and I am completely obsessed with them. Thank you so much Rachel for all of your hard work, I really don’t know what we would have done without you❤️

    Worth every penny!

    Shelby Street was a recommendation from a friend who told me the price was worth every penny, and she was so right! Rachel & team captured so many precious moments of our day and I’m truly thankful we chose them. Professional lighting, professional photography, professional photos. They knew exactly what to do.

    Rachel is amazing!

    Rachel is the most amazing photographer I have worked with. She is sweet, attentive, and her pictures are amazing. She listened to exactly what we wanted but also had great suggestions. We used her for our engagement and wedding photos. We will be booking her for future photography needs.

    Shelby Street is amazing!

    Rachel made us feel so comfortable during our engagement shoot and we were so pleased with how the pictures turned out! Something we are SO thankful for: the wedding timeline that she had created for us! Based on the specific pictures that we wanted, she created a timeline around our day. I’d recommend Shelby Street time and time again!

    Highly Recommended!

    Shelby Street Studios did an amazing job with both our engagement and wedding photos! Rachel is so friendly and professional and we loved her from our first zoom meeting. She has an energy that makes taking pictures easy, even for people like us who usually feel awkward in front of a camera! She offers great planning tips leading up to the wedding and kept everything on schedule that day so we made it to our cocktail hour on time. We couldn't be happier with how our pictures turned out!

    Such a fun, easy going and talented photographer

    Rachel was the most amazing photographer! She was very approachable and always responded to any and all questions! She was so creative and flexible when we had to change all of our plans not only for our engagement photos but also for our wedding photos due to torrential down pours that came out of nowhere. Some of my favorite photos from our wedding day were the result of a last minute “rain plan” under an overpass she found that worked beautifully. She was relaxed and easy going and kept the day light and fun. I felt so comfortable with her ! All my family members and members of the bridal party commented on how sweet she was and how great she was to work with ! She got sneak peaks back to us right away and all photos were back to us way sooner than I would have thought! She was excellent at communicating with us. We have not ordered our album yet but I am looking forward to having a hard copy of our gorgeous photos! If you’re looking for an easy going, down to earth, fun, creative, relatable and overall generous and kind person to photograph your wedding day, don’t hesitate!

    You won't regret choosing shelby street studios

    Shelby Street Studios came highly recommended to us by a few friends. When we reached out for an initial consultation, I knew immediately I wanted to work with them. While Rachel wasn't initially our contact, once she took over she stepped into the role without skipping a beat. She did her background research and already knew all the details of our day. During our planning calls she helped guide us through all the decisions for types of pictures and when to take them. She offered suggestions and guidance making our decision making process a breeze. AND THE MOST IMPORTANT PART: She guided us through all the poses needed for wedding day so we didn't have to think about a thing. She made taking pictures fun and not a burden or chore which I've heard a lot from many friends. The pictures turned out incredible (especially the sunset photos) and I am so happy we chose Rachel. I would recommend Rachel and the Shelby Street Team to anyone getting married or planning an event.

    Shelby Street is THE BEST!!

    Wow, we have absolutely LOVED working with Rachel! We read other reviews and looked at her beautiful pictures so we felt confident in booking with her and I am SO glad we did! The pandemic through us for a loop yet she was so easy to work with and incredibly kind when we needed to change our wedding date! When getting our engagement pictures done, she was so so sweet and such a professional! Myself, my fiancé, and my mom, who came with us to hold our dog in between shots, all left feeling incredibly confident that our pictures would turn out amazing from our confidence in her during the shoot. She made us feel so comfortable, as we both aren’t huge picture takers, and she was able to find the perfect moments and areas to take pictures at a very busy park! She also got our pictures back to us so quickly so we were able to send save the dates much sooner than we thought! And might I mention, the pictures came back quickly but were incredible!!! I would recommend Shelby street to anyone who wants professional photos that also look very natural! The skill set they have is unmatched! We cannot wait until our wedding to spend the day with them and to see the pictures that we already know will be fantastic!

    Amazing experience!!!!

    I value reviews so much and read them almost always before purchasing products and/or services even though I typically do not take the time to write them unless it is to warn someone of a bad experience.  This review is not the case.  I was extremely impressed with Shelby Street Studios!  My regret is that I did not know about this company for my oldest 2 daughters when they were getting married.  They each had a different photographer so I have 2 others to use as comparisons. I think I can speak for our entire family about the difference in our experience with Shelby Street compared to the other photographers, it's like comparing apples to oranges!  

    Our experience was wonderful!  From the moment I met Rachel and her crew I had a good feeling.  Rachel was so relaxed and made you feel like you knew her your entire life.  She knew exactly what to do and kept the day running smoothly.  I was so impressed with her creativity with all the different poses and shots not to mention she captured every moment!  The photos came back quickly and every time I view them, or the video, I relive my baby's wedding day over and over!  They are amazing! Trust me when I say I could not have been more pleased and will recommend Shelby Street to everyone I know!

    Photos We Will Cherish

    After multiple recommendations from coworkers, I hired Shelby Street to photograph our special day. We were blown away by our engagement photos. The team at Shelby Street gave us recommendations on photo locations and made us feel so comfortable behind the camera. We used them for our small wedding ceremony in December and we will be using them in July for our big celebration. We can not say enough wonderful things about Shelby Street and would recommend them to all our family and friends!
