WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER SERVING SOUTHWEST ONTARIO, INCLUDING NORFOLK COUNTY, HAMILTON, CAMBRIDGE, GUELPH, TORONTO AND BEYOND

Hiya - I’m Shelley!

I’m a wedding photographer based in Norfolk County, Ontario. I’m calm, rarely stressed with a dash of sarcasm. I give certain poses ridiculous names and occasionally assign nicknames to unruly groomsmen. (“Okay beardy - get it together.”)

If you want a very posed wedding photos, I am probably not your gal. I shoot what’s real with an itty bit of guidance. Most of the time, I’m quietly in the background while you’re busy getting married.

“Everyone that sees my wedding photos is absolutely blown away! They are pure magic and better than we could have even imagined.

Shelley captured the beauty of the venue, scenery, all the special moments and more. She is easy and fun to work with and provided great direction. Shelley is a true talent!”

Weddings Anywhere

Getting married somewhere far from home?

I travel for love. And good light. From tropical beaches to old stone castles in Ireland (I hope one day), I photograph destination weddings with full-day coverage and optional bonus shoots. That could mean a pool party with your friends, a moment in the ocean, or whatever version of fun you’re planning the day before or after.

These weddings are more than just one day. They’re made up of small, unforgettable moments stretched across a few beautiful days.

If you’re planning a wedding and want photos that reflect how it actually felt, then we should meet!
You don’t need to be “good at photos.” You just need a wedding day that feels like yours. I photograph weddings across Southwest Ontario (and the occasional destination one) with a focus on real moments, not stiff posing or forced t
When you love him so much that you just want to squeeze him!

The kind of golden hour that makes you want to shoot forever. And I almost did but I had to let the couple get back to their party. Even in black and white you feel that warm glow.

You get married. I’ll get the moments!
