I've been a photographer for about 10 years now, starting my professional practice when I was 16. I was introduced to photography through my high school yearbook, photographing athletic games. After finding a nack for it, I started taking my friend's senior photos and traveling with my brother's baseball team as their photographer. By the time I left for college, I had photographed 2 weddings, countless portraits, and 6 different kinds of athletic programs.
While at university for my BA in Communications, my love of photography continued to grow to heights I could have only imagined. With the guidance of the Lord, I aim to share my gift in service to all I meet, showcasing the beauty of Creation through my camera.

She was reverent, tactful, professional, and dutifully complied with our several requests. Our photos turned out beautiful and very accessible. Both my wife and I can strongly recommend Shelby as a photographer."
