Offerings

I am a completely emotional artist.  I take such heart and soul into creating a desirable gallery.  I cry at every single wedding I shoot, yes it’s true! My emotions just take over and after being involved in months of your life, my connection and passion for your day is overwhelming.  I want you to feel the same strong connection.  I want you to be proud to say you are a “Shelly Ruth” Bride.  I want you to feel loved and secure with myself and my team.  I strive to create a story that lives to tell your day with such deep and loving emotion.  I want you to feel a sense of completeness and have such an emotional response when you see your wedding gallery.  I know I’ve done my absolute best if this happens.

My style flows into a warm, dreamy, airy look with beautiful pastels and detailed art form. Before I was a digital photographer, I fell in love with film photography. I had such a passion for the way film developed and the colors that were created. Now as a digital artist, I match my work to mimic that of the film I use to shoot in the past. I want you to be able to feel the romance in the images, to know the happiness that existed, to see the pure joy that radiates from each moment. I pour my emotion into my style and create a timeless gallery that will be marveled for years and years to come.  I am a lover of all things detail. I love the way each detail of your day creates that timeless, elegant, pure, memory. I feel a very strong connection in capturing the detailed moments during your wedding day.  These are pieces you have worked so hard on creating, I want you to remember and love these moments. I love finding creativity in your day, capturing the story as it unfolds and creating a custom gallery you will have and share forever.

To give each couple the very best service that they deserve, I accept only 12 weddings a year and a max of 2 destination weddings. To guarantee my availability as your photographer on your wedding day, please email as soon as possible as I am currently booking 12-18 months in advance.
