Hey there, I'm Shelby - a wedding photographer who loves capturing real, unscripted moments with a warm, earthy, and candid touch. 

I first picked up a camera in high school during an elective photography class, and I was hooked almost instantly.  While everyone else photographed still life or landscapes, I couldn't stop photographing people. I loved emotion, connection, and the way a single frame could tell a whole story. 

When I continued photography in college, I experimented with everything, portraits, architecture, landscape photography, you name it. But no matter the assignment, I always found myself coming back to couples. The laughter between them, the quiet in-between moments; that's what drew me in every time. 

That passion grew into something bigger than I ever expected. I realized I didn't just want to take pretty pictures, I wanted to tell stories of real connection. Fast forward to today, and I get to do exactly that - capturing love stories that feel genuine, joyful, and true to the people in them.

When I'm not photographing love stories, you'll probably find me chasing my toddler, working on a new pottery piece, or planning another moms night out event. My everyday life fuels my creativity. It's messy, joyful and full of love, just like the stories I capture.
