More about Shell E....

What do you love about your job?

Nothing is more rewarding than seeing how happy clients are when they receive their images. Shell also loves to travel, and photography has been a career that has allowed her to explore new places while continuing to grow and evolve as a photographer.

What types of shoots have you done and how did you make them special?

I began as a newborn photographer, and with many clients returning over the years, my work naturally expanded to include young children and families. I’ve also photographed high school senior sessions, milestones, weddings, events like Santa sessions, headshots, and more. Each session is unique and special in its own way. Additionally, I’ve had the privilege of working with families who have experienced loss, incorporating meaningful touches to honor and remember their loved ones.

Awards, honors, and recognitions received

Other than the glowing reviews my clients leave me, I have nothing to say here! Ill let them speak on my behalf:
Very professional and pictures turned out great! Thank you! - Matt

"Shell took pictures of newborn son, Noah. To say that I was impressed by her work is an understatement. Her photos of him are incredible!! They are so much more than I expected. Not only do they capture our sweet boy in such a beautiful light but she made everything so comfortable and easy! She welcomed us into her home/studio and made us all feel at ease immediately. She was great with Noah as well, my husband and I just sat back and watched her work her magic. There was zero stress involved. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to get any pictures taken and plan to use her again in the very near future for family photos!" - Sarah

"Just had my newborn pictures taken today with Shell! And she did amazing! I was alittle worried because my baby is 6 weeks old due to being in the NICU for 3 1/2 weeks for coming early, I wasn’t sure how well he would cooperate. But Shell was so patient and kind! I can’t wait to see our pictures and to book more with her in the future!!!" - Mariah

Really great experience. Shell did amazing work. Very happy with how the photos turned out! She was great with the kids and easy to work with.- Rachel

We couldn't be happier with our photos! We fully expected to only purchase a couple, but they were all so great we had to buy the whole album! Shell was great to work with and made us feel very comfortable.

Shell worked great with my children - despite the rain and grumpy attitudes. Thank you! :)

Really great experience. Shell did amazing work. Very happy with how the photos turned out! She was great with the kids and easy to work with.
