Shelley Anderson's Blog bio picture

Welcome to my Blog!

When I studied photojournalism in college, something about newspaper photography didn't quite click with me. I began to shoot weddings soon thereafter and discovered I had found the perfect fit for my passion for photography. After photographing almost 150 weddings--and attending my own--I still absolutely love the wedding day and everything that comes with it. I enjoy meeting couples during the planning process because there are so many fun things about to happen in their lives. The
wedding is one of the most significant of these occasions, and I am
honored when I am asked to photograph this special moment. I look forward to capturing the candid, emotional moments of each unique day that will help couples cherish their wedding photos forever.

The sunny weather kept everyone in good spirits and the infectious smile Bridget carried around with her all day kind of makes you want to get married all over again. I love that Bridget had dreams...
