About


I'm a wedding photographer based out of Austin, Texas who believes that marriage & relationships are worth celebrating with vibrant, emotional photography. After starting Shelley Elena Photography in 2011, I've photographed over 150 weddings, but still get excited every weekend to capture the unique ways that couples love each other.

beautiful photos and wonderful to work with

I am so happy we worked with Shelley for our wedding! I knew I wanted candid, true to life photos and she went above & beyond. Our (huge) sneak peek gallery is stunning and I can't wait to see the rest. She's also just such a kind person, who put everyone at ease the whole day. Can't recommend her enough!

Incredible human, incredible photographer

You won't find a better photographer or human than Shelley. From our engagement photo session to our wedding day, Shelley was absolutely incredible to work with. She is truly a master of her craft. While we love the family portraits from our wedding day, the true magic is in the candid photos Shelley captured. When we look through our images, we can feel the emotions and experiences of our guests ooze through the screen. She caught the laughter, the tears, the dancing, and all the little moments in between that my husband and I missed throughout the day. We cannot recommend Shelley and her skills enough!

Shelley Elena Photography is beautiful

Shelley Elena Photography was my selection for photography on my wedding day. Full disclosure, I have known Shelley since our childhood. That being said my decision to use her as my photographer was based off her talent. She has a unique ability to capture moments in time that reflect the most genuine moments of any event. The story of my husband and I joining our lives is so perfectly told by the images she selected to capture. Shelley doesn't gravitate towards the big obvious moments of the day but rather the small, emotional, intimate moments that are shared amongst people when you think no one is looking. She is able to capture these unique moments because as a human she is LEGIT. One of the most humble and down to Earth people I know. If you select Shelley you will not regret it!

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.
