Shelley has been our wedding photographer for about a year and a half due to the pandemic and having to postpone our original wedding. She has shot 2 different engagement photo shoots for us along with FINALLY shooting our small, intimate wedding ceremony and reception a few weeks ago! It was a beautiful day and we love our sneak peak photo gallery we just received from her. Shelley is absolutely amazing!! She is so professional and is able to really capture some beautiful and magical moments! We have gotten to know her over the year and she is such a pleasure to work with! She will make sure you are having fun which helps things feel so natural! We 100% recommend Shelley as your wedding photographer!! You will not regret your decision!!

Beautiful Pictures and Wonderful Person
Shelley is an incredible artist and a joy to work with! I am typically very awkward in front of a camera and I was nervous that I would be constantly aware that I had a lens on me but Shelley made me feel so comfortable - it was even fun! She even brought a shower curtain to my bridal portraits to make sure the ground didn't stain my dress which is something I would have never thought about. She has a gift for capturing a moment without making you aware that you're being photographed.
She got along so well with everyone at the wedding and was amazing with the little kids. She was very respectful of our time with our guests while also finding the time to get some amazing shots of us when the lighting was exceptional. Her ability to capture candid moments is astounding. We were so excited to see the final shots she delivered because they brought our wedding day to life again and we know that they will continue to do so for years to come.
I cannot recommend Shelley enough! You will love working with her, just like I did!

I could not have asked for a better photographer!
I met with Shelley at a coffee shop a little over a year before our wedding. She was so sincere, kind, and knowledgeable that I knew I had to go with her. Her rates were on the high to middle end, but to me photographs are worth every penny. She was flexible with our engagement shoot dates, she gave lots of suggestions, and made both my fiance and I feel amazing during the whole shoot. She kept in contact up to the wedding confirming times, photos we would like to get, and she was flexible on our payment method! On the day of she had an assistant with her, that is the package we selected, but she does offer other packages at different rates. Her assistant was just as kind and amazing as she was. She was also in charge when trying to get all of the family photos in a timely manor, she may be petite but she can manage a crowd perfectly. I had full trust in her for our wedding day and could not have asked for a more sweet, thoughtful, or amazing photographer!
As a wedding planner, one of my recommendations for my brides is to choose your photographer based on their personality. If you are going to have someone following you around all day, you want to make sure you like them. Which is why I without a doubt have no trouble referring my brides to Shelley. I have had the pleasure to work with Shelley for a few weddings now and I think the most important quality to note about her is her personality when working with a couple. She is genuinely one of the sweetest photographers you will meet and that personality helps keep couples relaxed and having fun throughout their wedding day. She is not obtrusive as she goes around the room capturing details and special moments. From a professional standpoint, Shelley is a great communicator and runs her business in a professional way. Most importantly though, her photos are amazing! Her signature touch is to make use of the natural lighting to give you the most romantic shots! One visit with Shelley and your search for the perfect photographer for you will be over.
