My ethos as your wedding photographer is for you and your family to feel like I'm an old friend on the day of, because that is when I can capture the real connections and personalities. My wedding photography approach is simple, non-invasive, and fun. Knowing when to step in but most importantly when to step back

When a more composed portrait is required, couples are guided through natural, everyday actions like embracing, cuddling, walking, and kissing - rather than contrived poses. As a married woman myself, I deeply value marriage and the importance of having everyone you love in the same space as you. I want you to enjoy every minute of it, while also getting incredible photos to look back on.

I value the relationship between my couples and I so much. As your wedding photographer in Jacksonville, Florida and nationwide, I genuinely want to get to know you and make a connection instead of just being some random photographer that shows up to take photos. I’m not in this for the money, your story is the reason I am here. After it’s all said and done, I’m still so close with most of my clients and I absolutely love it.

This photo timeline will be made based on the scheduled hourly coverage and my recommended timing for events to ensure a seamless experience. I'm available to help with portrait location options and collaborating on the overall vision of your day if desired!

After the wedding, I will intentionally curate and refine each image; delivering a collection of high-resolution photographs elegantly showcased in an online gallery which will be easily accessible and downloadable for six months.

The Process

Film scans are sent within 4 weeks of the wedding date.

Digital images are sent within 8 weeks for the final gallery.

I will send out a preview gallery within the 4 days of the wedding with about 50+ images from the day as a special gift. Each photo is carefully selected and hand edited by me to ensure a cohesive gallery of images.

When do i receive my images?

Yes, I strive to always shoot film on wedding days!! However if the weather does not permit or the timeline runs behind, I will prioritize digital to help us stay on track.

Do you shoot on film?

Absolutely! I'm based out of Fernandina Beach, Florida and Jacksonville, Florida but travel often for weddings. As of right now, I’m only traveling within the United States. I have a package specifically for out of state weddings that include travel costs!

will you travel to shoot our wedding?

Yes I am, and a copy of my COI can be provided to your venue.

are you insured?

No, I do not offer videography services however I'm happy to send you some recommendations!

do you offer videography?

The camera that I use (along with my second photographer's) have dual card slots which means that your memories are being copied on to two cards at the same time. So from the moment I start shooting, your images are automatically in two locations! Immediately after I get home from your wedding, I directly export your images on to a solid state drive and both memory cards are stored safely until your wedding gallery is delivered.

How do you ensure all of our images are safe?

"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

"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

"Cannot recommend Shelby enough!! She did our engagement shoot and our wedding. Since our first conversation she knew exactly what we wanted and boy did she deliver! Her work exceeded beyond our expectations and is all over our home! Not only is her work amazing but so is she! She is such a sweetheart, so attentive to detail, caring, professional, kind, all around great to work with! She is so good at her job, we love her!!"
- Julia L. / East Coast Wedding

"I cannot say enough good things about Shelby. Our wedding was considered a destination wedding as we live in Arizona and our family and friends were coming mostly from Indiana. I had never met Shelby in person until after our ceremony was over and I got to say hi to her for the first time. 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."
- Nicky S. / Wedding on the East Coast
