Getting portraits on your wedding day is a given and it’s something that ALL wedding photographers offer

BUT what if you could also got these fleeting unique moments that were totally real, and unplanned

→ What if you had a photographer that made it a mission to truly document all the meaning behind this important day.‍ ‍I’ve been know to sit in a spot and hold my camera still -  waiting the moment to happen, because I see something others don’t  - I am patiently anticipating for that scene to unfold.

I am giving you these moments other photographers overlook. And I am funny too, so that helps.

“Shelley was our amazing photographer who shot our wedding! She made everything so easy and fun

She has a wonderful sense of humour and made us feel super comfortable. She also got our full gallery completed within 3 weeks! We couldn't be happier with the final product. I would recommend her! Thanks Shelley!”

Hi! I’m Shelley. Happy you are here!

A woman with long dark hair, smiling, wearing a black sleeveless top, gold jewelry, and a smartwatch, sitting indoors near a window with glass blocks.

I’m a candid and documentary wedding photographer based in Norfolk County, photographing weddings across Southern Ontario including Hamilton, London, Toronto, Guelph, and Cambridge.

The couples I work with are not looking to pose all day during their wedding, They are drawn to candid photos that reflect the funny moments, the emotional ones and portraits that are thoughtfully composed but still feel like them!

I’ll deliver photos that bring back all the feels - the moments you saw and the ones you didn’t. If you're looking for a candid wedding photographer in Ontario who captures the day as it actually felt, you're in the right place.

I photograph all couples - LGBTQ+ weddings are always welcome here.
