    Book her…NOW!

    Shelby was timely, organized, personable, but most important genuine. She really shows how much she cares and takes pride in her passion. I can tell you if you book Shelby she will be 100% committed. I am so glad I found her for my wedding.

    A true artist and a wonderful person!

    We can't say enough good things about Shelby - she was the first vendor we hired and was the best decision we made for our wedding. She was so easy to work with for both our engagement and wedding photos and keeps you relaxed and laughing. None of her photos feel posed - it really is a genuine expression of love. We especially loved the warm and cozy feel that her photos have, especially with the trend of overexposed-looking photos that are popular right now for weddings, it was important to have someone who has her own style. If you hire Shelby, you will not be disappointed!

    Shelby Chari Photography's reply:

    Meaghan + Paul,

    You two are the absolute SWEETEST. I was so honored to be your first vendor booked and so SO happy to hear that I lived up to the title! ;) Literally cannot WAIT to show you the rest of your photos.

    XOXO

    The best!!!

    Honestly I don't even need to write a review for Shelby's work...the photos speak for themselves. However, it was the absolutely BEST working with her. Trust me, I did my research. She was the 50th, yes 50th, wedding photographer I reached out to and I think that speaks enough about her!

    Not only did we hit it off right away, but I feel like I have found a forever friend in her. The pictures, the experience, the extras she gave us after the wedding? It was all perfect. Even today, more than 6 months after the wedding, I need her help with touching up a photo or editing a little something here or there, she is 100% willing to help.

    If you have the chance to work with her, I HIGHLY suggest it. You will be very happy with the end results!

    Looking at Shelby’s work alone grants her more than 5 stars. She is incredibly professional and a master of her art. For our wedding she was very easy to get ahold of whenever needed, she showed up to the venue the night before during rehearsal to scope it out and make a game plan for the following day, and the entire bridal party had so much fun with her! Only 3 days after the wedding, we had an album full of teaser photos from her! I can’t speak highly enough of her. Thank you so much Shelby!

    Shelby Chari Photography's reply:

    Danielle,
    Thank you so much!! I had so much fun getting to know you and Jason throughout the planning process and through the big day. You two were so much fun and so were your family and friends! I don't think I have laughed that hard at a wedding in awhile, thanks for making my job a dream!

    Shelby was amazing to work with. She met with me before the wedding and got us all organized and came with ideas for unique photo's I hadn't even considered taking. Everyone who has seen our pictures has been blown away by how awesome they turned out!

    Shelby Chari Photography's reply:

    Thank you so much Sam!! I am so honored you and Alex trusted me to capture your big day and glad to hear that everyone else is loving the photos too!!
    Wishing you guys all the best!

    Shelby was wonderful to work with! She was dependable throughout the entire process from engagement photos all the way to delivery of our final product. She was extremely patient with our slightly awkward/uncomfortable moments being in front of the camera :) ...especially considering our 70lb boxer was included in both engagement and wedding day events. Shelby and her second shooter managed to capture our day beautifully!

    Shelby was amazing to work with and the quality of her work is INCREDIBLE!! We absolutely love looking at our wedding pictures everyday. Shelby spent as much time as was needed to get the perfect shot and even came to our rehearsal to make sure everything was set up for well for pictures :) Plus, all of your pictures come in a very cute packaging! I highly recommend Shelby Chari Photography for your wedding. You will not be disappointed!

    There are not enough words to describe how wonderful Shelby Chari Photography LLC is! My husband and I decided to go with Shelby for our engagement and wedding pictures and could not be more pleased with our decision. Shelby is charming, professional, creative, and extremely talented. She makes taking pictures fun and comfortable. Plus she produces such beautiful work. For anyone looking for a photographer, I highly recommend Shelby. She is AWESOME. I cannot wait to use her again for future needs. ♥

    Shelby was the best! From beginning to end she was there to help me with all things photography! At the time I lived in Chicago and was getting married in South Bend Indiana. She even drove up to Chicago and took our engagement photos for us! We ended the night with tacos! I felt like I had known her forever and she always made me feel so comfortable.

    Shelby Chari Photography's reply:

    Dani!!
    Thank you so so much! Any couple I get to share tacos with are automatically friends for life. Your wedding day was SO much fun! You and Dexter are so dreamy and fun to photograph and I am forever thankful you trusted me with your engagement session and wedding! I still get teary eyed looking at your first look pics and your first dance is one of my forever favorites!
    Thank you again!

    Shelby is AMAZING! She made my husband and I feel so comfortable and look natural in our pictures from our wedding day. She is so fun and easy to work with! I actually met with her before I set my wedding date because I wanted to be sure she could be my photographer...all of her pictures are always so beautiful!!

    Shelby Chari Photography's reply:

    Allie!!
    Thank you thank you thank you! I am so completely honored that you came to me and worked your date to make sure I could be there to capture it all. You and Adam and all of your amazing wedding and family were so incredible to work with- start to finish!! Cheers to a lifetime of happiness!

    Shelby was a DREAM to work with and I’m so happy we chose her to be our wedding photographer! She was always quick to respond and very personable throughout the whole wedding planning process. Not only did she act as our photographer, but as a coordinator and a friend. Being newbies in front of a camera, my husband and I felt a little awkward posing for photos, but Shelby knew how to engage with us and make it feel easy! Her photos are amazing and professional-truly works of art. The canvas and album we received with our package were extremely high quality and had very quick turnaround time. We have since booked Shelby for an anniversary shoot and will book plenty more in the future!

    Shelby Chari Photography's reply:

    Michelle!

    Thank you SO much, YOU two were a dream to work with! You are naturals in front of the camera and made my job easy. So thankful to be able to create art for you. Heres to many more to come!

    I’m the sixth one in my family to get married and I’ve been in many friends’ weddings so I have worked with many photographers. When my turn came around, I searched for weeks for the perfect photographer. I was extremely picky as I wanted my photos to be incredible and unforgettable. I found Shelby’s website and immediately fell in love with her elegant and flawless work! She did our engagement pictures and our wedding pictures – we are blown away with our photos! We had a wedding party of 20 and every one of them said that they have never worked with a better photographer. Shelby did more than just provide us with great pictures; she went above and beyond! She was able to schedule our engagement session last minute, she provided the best location and allowed us to take the shots that we wanted, and she traveled four hours, one way, to take our wedding pictures. On our wedding day, a scheduling conflict put us in a rush to take all the pictures, but that didn’t stop Shelby. She kept us all calm and laughing and we got all the pictures regardless of the conflict. Even with all the craziness, she made it possible for my husband and I to have all the special moments that you’d hope to have on the happiest day of your life. She literally lights up the room with her spunky personality and great sense of humor. She’s fun, exciting, creative, and efficient! I promise, she’ll be more than just a photographer – she’ll be your entertainer, friend, and the person that will give you some incredibly special memories. She was one of the best decisions we made through the entire wedding process, and she’ll be our main photographer for all family photos in the future. You will NOT be disappointed with Shelby – whatever you may need her for: family pictures, engagement pictures, wedding pictures, etc. She is worth every single penny – I now have the most unique, gorgeous, and unforgettable engagement and wedding pictures that I have ever laid eyes on and all for an incredible price!

    Shelby Chari Photography's reply:

    Oh my goodness Anna, Where to even begin!?
    Thank you SO much for this detailed and thoughtful review. It was an absolute honor to capture your big day. Knowing ahead of time how many weddings your family has had over the years and that I was being put to the test, I am so please to hear that I passed! ;) You and Seth were such a dream to work with and to capture. Your love for one another made all of the days events a breeze.
    So thankful, Wishing you both so much married bliss!

    Shelby is absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond my expectations and I already new that she would be great! All you have to do is take a look at her work and know that her personality is just as beautiful. Shelby will definitely be seeing more of me :)

    Shelby is the best!

    I have had a few sessions with Shelby and when it came time to book a wedding photographer I knew I had to have Shelby. She was easy to work with, she made sure all terms were clear and what made the most sense for our day.

    Our pictures turned out great and the turn-around rate was amazing. My husband and I love to look at photos time and time again. Shelby did a great job capturing everything from the first kiss to my husband playing with his wedding band. She is also very creative and makes the day about you. The book that came with our package turned out beautiful, and although it was so difficult to select just a few photos we are so happy with everything.

    Shelby Chari Photography's reply:

    Stephanie,
    It was such an honor to photograph so many important moments in your life. Thankful for your trust and so happy to hear how pleased you are with the images!

    Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness!

    Shelby was so great to work with! She was very perfession and responded so quickly to all of my many questions. Shelby even knew exactly how my night would play out and was right where I wanted her to capture all the perfect moments! I have been married over a year now and wanted to have Shelby print more pictures off of Shelbys website and I was still able to! Her website is so nice!

    Shelby Chari Photography's reply:

    Amy!

    Thank you so much for your kind review. I am so happy to hear that your wedding coverage turned out perfectly.
    Wishing you both the very best!
