A familiar presence on your wedding day. Documenting calmly, intuitively, and with the heart of someone who's known you for years. Modestly capturing your moments without overshadowing them.

I'm a big believer that your experience is just as important as the photographs themselves. I work by paying attention rather than constantly directing. Letting things unfold naturally while shaping them with a thoughtful, refined eye. The result is imagery that feels honest, lived-in, and artful without trying too hard. I focus on the connection and interactions so your images will be honest and meaningful to you.

From the first hello to the final moments together, rest assured you will enjoy a personalized experience with honest guidance and a calming presence. Turning your real moments into something elevated and deeply personal while you get to be fully immersed in this once in a lifetime celebration.

relaxed, heartfelt, and personal imagery.

inspired by

East Coast wedding photographer based in Amelia Island, Florida and working all around the country.

I’m intentional about getting to know the couples I work with and creating an experience that feels simple, thoughtful, and genuinely supportive from start to finish. I care deeply about your connection and the people who matter most to you, and I photograph your day in a way that lets you stay present with one another. My goal is for you to remember how it all felt. The emotion, the energy, the in-between moments. Not how long you were pulled away from your people or asked to perform for the camera.

Meet your East Coast photographer

"Shelby was an absolute gem to work with from the very start of booking her till the very end of our time together. The photos she delivered us of our elopement were more than we could have ever anticipated them being, we are in awe with her work. But more than that Shelby made the time to constantly check in leading up to our elopement, always asking if we needed help, providing a guidance on the best ways to make the day flow, and made the entire process so much better with her help. We adore her and her work and will absolutely be working with her in the future."

- Devon C. / East Coast Wedding

KIND WORDS

"Shelby was absolutely amazing from start to finish. She was helpful, thorough, and extremely detailed. Her finished work floored us and we couldn’t be happier with our choice to use her as our photographer for our special day. It was easy, seamless, and she was prompt in getting our photos back to us! I don’t typically write reviews, but it’s also not typical to have someone go above and beyond these days. You should not have a shred of doubt when choosing her. She will WOW you like she WOW’D us!”

- Heather C. / Wedding in the East Coast

KIND WORDS

"Shelby was amazing. She has such a calm, positive energy and made the whole day feel so easy. She captured everything so beautifully without ever making anything feel forced. Our families kept saying how great she was and how comfortable she made everyone feel. We’re so grateful for her and can’t recommend her enough."

- Grace J. / East Coast Wedding

KIND WORDS

"I cannot say enough good things about Shelby. I could tell from her social media and our few interactions that she was going to be so sweet and kind and she was exactly that. She made my husband and I feel so comfortable in front of the camera and had so many suggestions for poses and different shots she wanted to capture. She captured our day exactly the way that I had envisioned it and we're so lucky that we get to have these photos for a lifetime! If you're looking for someone in or around Florida to capture your wedding I highly recommend you book with Shelby."
