Dream Photographer Team!!

Mel and Kevin from Shifted Focus Photography were absolutely OUTSTANDING in every possible way. From the moment we had the initial call before booking, to the morning they arrived the day of the wedding, it was clear we were working with true professionals. They are a master class in capturing spectacular photos—both breathtaking portraits and the most natural, joy-filled candids. Their direction throughout the day was incredible. They guided us, our families, and our wedding party with prompts that felt fun, easy, and never forced, resulting in photos that look effortless and authentically “us.” We were blown away by their talent, their energy, and how seamlessly they fit into our day. If it were possible to give them 10 stars, we would. Work with them if you have the chance—you’ll be forever grateful you did!

The go-to choice for your wedding photography!!!!

Of all the wedding decisions we made, choosing to work with Mel was one of the easiest!!! Mel made our engagement photo session so comfortable, natural, and fun - setting us up to truly look forward to wedding day with her.
Leading up to the big day, she kept the photography portion of planning stress-free, quickly responding to any questions and providing the most helpful timeline guidance. She captured AMAZING pictures of us, our family, and our guests. We, and everyone in the wedding party, loved working with her; she spreads joy and true laughter, which really shows in photos, and she's a sneaky ninja at getting great candids and ceremony pictures! She has a true talent. She encourages and showcases you and your partner's personality and emotion in her beautiful photography - and kept our photos rich and natural in style, just as we were looking for! The variety, quantity, and quality of pictures from our wedding day was incredible. Every family member we have spoken to cannot stop raving about our wedding day photos. We are so fortunate we were able to meet and work with Mel. 1000/10 recommend working with her for any photography needs!

Mel is an angel sent to earth

Mel made the whole experience the most calm, memorable, easy and unforgettable part of my wedding. She makes you feel so comfortable and takes all nervousness away. She has a special way of connecting you to your partner and creating chemistry with her too. She takes the time to get to know you personally and what matters to you, and somehow through magic, captures the moments in film. I can't thank her enough, I will only ever be using Mel for any other photography job.

Mel is the best!

Mel is amazing, she covered every step of our wedding and has been incredibly easy to work with. Even did some custom b&w/color filtering of one of our favorite pictures! She will make your wedding day a breeze and capture every moment.

The best decision you can make for your wedding!

We spoke to many different photographers, trying to find one that would make us feel at home on our day. We knew as soon as we spoke to Mel that she would add something so special to our wedding. She will make you feel like family and she will feel like family to you by the end of your experience working with her. She went out of her way for us, traveling two hours to take our engagement photos. She is also so incredibly good at her job...she will capture all of the moments you want to relive forever and with the creativity of someone who is simply made for this work. Shifted Focus is the best decision you'll make for your day!

AMAZING Wedding Photographer

I highly recommend Shifted Focus Photography as a wedding photographer! Mel made the process so effortless - from her prompt email responses to her insight on wedding timelines, everything was just so easy. Mel made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera, which is not always an easy feat. Our photographs are absolutely stunning as Mel captured the happiness and love of the day. We have received so many compliments on our pictures, and I cannot stop looking at them. We cannot thank Mel enough!

Best wedding photographer ever

I’ll start off by saying our wedding photos turned out to be EXACTLY what we had hoped for. Mel’s skill for photography is unmatched. The details, the natural editing & entire delivery/presentation. She runs the show all while behind the camera. Overall, we couldn’t be any happier with the outcome. Every detail I could think of was captured. We can relive the day every time we look through our wedding gallery… & that was the goal! From the engagement session all the way to the wedding a year later, the entire experience was stress free, professional & fun!! Shifted Focus was our favorite vendor to work with throughout the entire planning process and even the day of the wedding! Look no further and you will not regret!! If we had to do it all over again, we know who to call. Thank you so much SFP!!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
