a note from shelby

The experience of my own aisle moment is the reason why I choose to document weddings:

I looked up from my mama’s embrace to see my future husband walking away from the altar...he was coming to meet us halfway down the aisle. This made journeying toward an act of faith something we did together, and I was grateful to have two sets of hands around mine for those final steps! Revisiting photographs by opening our own album brings back every racing heartbeat, well of happy tears, and warmth from experiencing all that is loved.

to create light-filled reminders of the greatest promise I've come to know.

xx,

founder + lead photographer

I work from a place of inspiration unlike any before, and it is why I only take 10 weddings per year - to give my very best in life and business. It's about pouring my heart into what fills it up again. Each time I pick up a camera I am reminded of all the good that surrounds us. I see the way they inspire the best version of you through their own acts of love and keep you believing. 

Sharing that feeling is
what I do, it's what I love.

In-between moments make up the fabric of a wedding day, and it’s our job to capture them authentically . Your families become woven as all you love gathers together. And we want you to treasure your day as if it’s tomorrow.  In-between moments make up the fabric of a wedding day, and it’s our job to capture them authentically .

that make big memories

this is the
heart behind it all

little moments

A first sip of coffee
Embraces by candlelight
Handwritten notes
Date nights spent in
Adventuring out
Building on tradition
Reminiscing for decades

We will help you hold on to times of togetherness so you can celebrate the legacy you’re building each time you pick up a photograph and pour over your album. Because of this, you’ll remember more from the wedding than ever thought possible.

"I knew we picked the right photographer when my wife told me: the wedding was perfect, and I think a lot of it was because they made it so easy and comfortable."
