You went above and beyond with how you cared for us and our guests

We truly cannot thank you enough for yesterday. I specifically noticed the kindness and gentleness with which you treated all of our friends and family, and that truly meant the world to me. You made us feel so loved and celebrated!

- amanda & kenny

I'm blown away by Shanle's photos each time I open my wedding album.

She captured the excitement and sweetness of our day so perfectly! She was incredibly easy to work with, communicative, cheerful, energetic, organized, and very efficient. We're so grateful to have had such a talented photographer capture those cherished moments!

- Kara & Sam

We look so natural and comfortable... and we truly were the entire time,

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for capturing these moments for us. We and our families will absolutely treasure these for years to come!

- lisa coburn

We ended up having rain... and she calmly carried on as if it was a beautiful sunny day.

[Shanle's] calming influence eased the entire wedding party and she took all the photos we'd previously planned. When we received the photos I was blown away by the results, it was not even obvious it was raining.

- brittany & jake

I'm crying all over again. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

We couldn't have asked for a better photographer and a better day! We are so thankful. You were truly the best!

Everything in my approach to your photographs is centered around being as invested in your love story as you are.

When you take that first look in the mirror after your veil is placed, or the first time those doors open up to the faces of everyone you love, or the first “I can’t believe we’re actually married!” kiss — I know how much those moments mean to YOU.

Because honestly? I’m feeling all those things with you. 

I don't go to a wedding without waterproof mascara.
