My name is Shelby
let's get to know each other
I currently live in Paducah, Kentucky. I have loved photography my entire life. I started in High School where I was the school photographer and website designer. My path led me to pursue an Art Degree at Austin Peay State University, where I mastered my craft and developed a unique perspective on storytelling through imagery. Now, I'm happily married and a proud parent to Grayson, my source of endless inspiration. I'm thrilled to connect with you and bring your special moments to life.
Autism Awareness
My son, Grayson, was diagnosed with Autism at the age of 3. Being the mother of an autistic child is indeed a journey filled with both challenges and extraordinary moments. It's a unique path that often requires patience, understanding, and unwavering love.
Parenting an autistic child requires immense patience, which translates into my work as a photographer. I'm willing to wait for the perfect lighting, expression, or composition to create exceptional images.
In essence, being his mother enriches my photographic journey by infusing it with empathy, patience, creativity, and a unique perspective on life. It allows me to approach photography with a deeper understanding of the human experience, resulting in more meaningful and impactful images.
