Meet Shelby
Dog mom, wife, national park enthusiast, traveler & nature lover
My name is Shelby and I'm so happy you're here! I’ve spent the last 13 years photographing love stories all over New England. Photography has been my passion since high school when I first started taking photos of families and couples. After photographing my first wedding in 2016, I never looked back! I find beauty in the smallest of moments and so much importance in the memories they hold.
I’m a 31 year old dog mom to 3 huskies, Hunter, Oakley & Bandit. When I’m not taking photos or editing, you can find me out adventuring with them & my hubby, fishing, camping or hiking! I also love planning trips, kayaking, being in the mountains and just cozying up by my woodstove with a good book and coffee!

just a few things I love...
LONG ROAD TRIPS | harry potter + lotr | halloween and fall | camping | PANCAKES (real maple syrup is a must) | KAYAKING | moose | COZY LOG CABINS | grizzly bears | COFFEE | mountains + hiking | MUSIC (some of my favs here!) | A GOOD BOOK | dogs!!!
I work with a quiet presence, knowing when to gently guide and when to step back and observe. I let most moments happen naturally, but offer direction during portraits and family formals.
My presence is calm, intentional and observant. Rather than being the "loud, hype-girl photographer", I create a relaxed space where you can feel comfortable, be yourselves and fully enjoy your day.
If you're envisioning perfectly posed, magazine-style photos from start to finish, my approach might not be the best fit. I'm more drawn to the in-between moments, natural connection and the beauty of things as they happen.
the way i show up...
My goal: that you can be fully present in your day, knowing I'm there to thoughtfully capture the moments you'll cherish long after it's over.
I've been drawn to photography for as long as I can remember. What started as a childhood hobby soon became something I knew I wanted to turn into a career. I took the leap and went full-time in 2018. Since then, I've had the privilege of documenting hundreds of couples and their stories throughout New England.
Along the way, photography became about so much more than taking a beautiful photo. It's about the emotion, the connection and the little moments that might otherwise go unnoticed, the ones that become even more meaningful with time.
Getting to know the couples and families I work with, hearing their stories, and being invited into such personal seasons of life is something I never take for granted. It's hard to believe that something that started with a camera in middle school has grown into the business and life I get to have today. And after more than a decade, I still feel incredibly lucky to do this!
