Shelley + Portugal 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $7,250
  • Serves Summer Shade, KY

We always joke that we feel like the black sheep of the wedding industry, and that isn't a bad thing at all. We've stepped away from trend-driven, performative wedding culture, and instead collaborate closely with our couples to create photographs that are personal, honest, and timeless. We achieve this by arriving to your wedding as friends, slipping seamlessly into the natural flow & dynamic of the day, and documenting it all from the inside out. No shot lists, no pressure to keep every hair in place... just real, perfectly imperfect moments unfolding right before our cameras.

Awarded Best of Zola
Shelley & Portugal captured our day perfectly. From our first meeting, they were such a joy to work with - professional, kind, organized, & so genuinely invested in making our day special. We are absolutely in love with our photos & they feel so completely “us.” We couldn’t have asked for better people to have captured our day! They are by far two of the most talented photographers I've ever seen & I highly recommend using them for your big day!

Debra Aslanidis Photography was an outstanding choice for our wedding photographer. From our initial contact, Debra and her team were prompt, quick, and efficient in their communication, providing detailed responses to all of our questions. On the day of the wedding, Debra and her fiancé Jeremy were professional, unobtrusive, and captured the most beautiful, detailed shots that we will treasure forever. Despite not seeing them constantly throughout the reception, they managed to get so many stunning photos that we didn't even know were being taken - we truly felt like we could just enjoy the moment without having to "perform" for the camera. The quality of their work is simply outstanding, and we couldn't be happier with the value they provided. Debra is the perfect wedding photographer - she takes her job seriously but has fun while doing it, and we highly recommend her services to any couple looking for beautiful, detailed photography that will beautifully document their special day. These are just a couple of the shots I felt really captured our day!!

Hi! My name is Mae, and I live in Brooklyn with my girlfriend, our two dogs Apollo and Bia, her cat Gigi and my lizard, Basil! I’ve always been passionate about capturing moments as authentically and magically as possible, and as i’ve settled more into this career path, I love that i’ve landed in a place where I have the privilege to capture and preserve people’s love stories. Weddings and elopements are so distinctly and uniquely human, and it’s truly the biggest honor to be trusted to document them.

Awarded Best of Zola
Mae was an absolute pleasure to work with. I knew I liked her from the very first call. She was thorough and asked good questions to make sure she could capture what we wanted. I love the vintage-inspired look of the photos and video. She communicated when she said she would and I always received a quick response to any questions or messages I had. On the wedding day, I couldn’t imagine anyone who would make it as special as Mae did. She was more than a photographer- she helped me put on myself shoes, hyped up all the little details I stressed months over, and was just such a joy. I cannot recommend Mae enough. I loved all the photos and the video made me cry. Mae is the type of person you want to be friends with after everything is done. Trust me, book Mae!!

Hi! My name is Steve. I do visual storytelling. I’m married with three kids and in my spare time I record music and build things. I've been filming and photographing weddings since 2009. I love travel and getting to know unique couples.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Steven and his team to do our wedding photos and videography. I really wanted a photographer that could capture the soul of the event, and Steven did exactly that. His photos are full of life, and I shared so many portraits with guests that actually got printed out or posted online. If you're looking for hundreds of photos of your wedding party that look exactly the same and for every planned second to be documented, Steven is not your person. If you're looking to hit the big moments but focus on capturing raw moments with timeless photos to get framed, I couldn't recommend them more. I never thought I would get a wedding video because it always seemed cheesy to me. But after watching examples of his work I fell absolutely in love with his videos. I've honestly had a hard time watching ours because it evokes so much emotion. Steven was collaborative and willing to go with the flow. We gave him the difficult task of being prepared for 3 different locations with totally differing lighting (indoor/outdoor plus shooting from high sun into the night). He puts an immense amount of care into his work and the photos are truly art that we will cherish forever. If there are specific things you want covered, be sure to share a list. When it comes to capturing the moments that can't be planned, he is on the case!

If adventure makes your heart beat fast, you don't mind straying from tradition, sarcasm and retro music are your love languages, and if you're down to frolic through an open field with me, we'll be best friends in no time. When you choose your wedding photographer, it's about more than hiring a professional to take photos — it's about connecting with someone who'll capture your day with intention. So be sure to ask all your questions, and make sure you *click* (pun intended) with the person behind the camera!

Awarded Best of Zola
Faith is one of the most intentional people I’ve met — she was there every step of the way during wedding planning to support us and provided so much comfort and overall good vibes on the day of! I felt so at ease the entire wedding day, and I credit that to our incredible vendor team, Faith and her team included. I received so many sneak peek pics just under a week after my wedding (a few I got almost immediately!!), and it was amazing to be able to relive those moments already and share them with friends and family. Seeing how she captured these moments, big and small, makes me SO excited to see the final gallery!!! Her editing style is simply gorgeous — it was the main reason I reached out to her initially — but she’s also just a wonderful friend and human. When you already feel like you know someone, it makes it so much easier to be your authentic selves in front of the camera, and for that to shine through in photos. We both have so much love for Faith and are forever grateful she was there to document the beginning of the newest chapter of our love story

We can’t say enough good things about them! From the start, they felt like part of the crew, super chill, easy to work with, and just fun to be around. On the big day, they somehow managed to be everywhere without ever feeling like they were in the way. They caught all the laughs, happy tears, and little moments we didn’t even realize were happening. And when we saw the photos/video? Absolutely blown away. It’s like they bottled up the whole feeling of the day, and now we get to relive it forever.

I’m thrilled to meet you and start creating a connection! I began photographing weddings four years ago and quickly realized the most meaningful moments are unscripted—raw, emotional, and unforgettable. Capturing these authentic experiences is my passion. With a background as an outdoor educator and a wilderness therapist, I bring a unique perspective and skill set to wedding photography. Whether guiding backpacking trips or earning a Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, each chapter of my life has shaped my ability to support couples with humor, care, and creativity. Let’s capture your day exactly as it unfolds!

Haley was such a pleasure to work with. We were unsure of where to have our elopement pictures taken. She gave us so many great recommendations. She was so helpful along the way, leading up to our big day! She helped take the stress out of worrying about the details of the day. She even had an assistant to help with our fur babies on the day off. She is so sweet and thoughtful. The polaroids were definitely one of our favorite parts of our wedding pictures. I would recommend Haley to anyone wanting to have their elopement/wedding brought to life by photography.

I am the owner and head photographer of Lu's Lens Photography. I do 95% of the work with the exception of the occasional 2nd photographer or editor. And hey, I know how to run a business, too! I graduated from Northwood University with a Bachelors in Business, but there's no teaching an eye for photography - I see the moment before it even happens. I build out all the wedding timelines with my couples, so I'm on top of your details just as much as you. I travel everywhere but mainly in Michigan and Tennessee.

I don't even know where to begin, Hannah is a ray of sunshine in human form. Not only, does she make being in front of the camera comfortable and easy, but she does so with humor and professionalism that cannot be taught. My husband usually turns into a cardboard statue in front of the camera, and within minutes he was comfortable, laughing and having a great time. This is all on top of the fact that her artistic, photographic style is unmatched. Her ability to take a sweet moment and turn it into art is a gift that lasts a lifetime. I have been fortunate enough to work with Hannah on all of our major life events and I will continue to do so until she fires me as a client. I love her and I promise you will too!

I am a licensed and insured photographer and graphic designer based in Cookeville, Tennessee. I have been published in magazines and I take so much pride in my work and what I do for people every day. I enjoy meeting new people, exploring creativity, and bringing visions to life. I strive to press the pause button on your life and document the beauty of the present with you and your loved ones. My photography style is authentic and vibrant, focusing on true-to-life colors.

Ashlee Michelle Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, she was knowledgeable, experienced, and always there to answer our questions and provide guidance. On the day of our wedding, Ashlee's expertise truly shone through - she had a detailed timeline, kept everyone organized and where they needed to be, and made the entire process run so smoothly. The quality of their work is simply stunning - my photos came back more beautiful than I could have ever imagined, and I truly could not have asked for a better person to be there to capture all the special moments of our big day. Ashlee and her team were professional, personable, and went above and beyond to make sure our wedding day was perfect. I would recommend Ashlee Michelle Photography to any couple in a heartbeat.
