Hey there - I'm Shelby Cole, Wedding & Portrait Photographer.

 

Hello pretty face, I'm Shelby Cole, a Wedding & Portrait Photographer out of small town New Waverly, Texas. Taking moments and capturing them in still photographic memories has been a compelling passion of mine for the past seven years. Shortly after my daughter was born I realized how indispensable photographing every small detail held such value, to not be forgotten as life passes by quickly. Years later we find ourselves cherishing each photo more and more.


Documenting your story though emotive imagery, to unveil the unseen and most significant parts of your story.


This is what lights a fire deep in my core. Guided storytelling visuals to incapsulate you to the fullest. Capturing the prominence of details and moments that may go overlooked if they were not photographed. Remembering the evoking and passionate love you share as you walk down the aisle to your forever.  The abundance of joy you feel as you dance the night away with your most cherished people. The tears that gather in your eye as you gaze at your new addition to the family.


I dedicate myself to giving you your most fond moments in organic, natural, artist visuals tailored specifically to embody the memories of story - to look back on for years and generations to follow. Once a moment has past - all we are left with is memories and photographs.

More about myself..

I am a 24 year old mama to the most beautiful, strong willed, and spunky little girl - Blakely.


I dropped out of college my sophomore year to pursue a full time career in photography.

The Shelby Cole Experience


01.


Comfort


No one knows what to do in front of the camera, even me, but you'll never feel awkward or uncomfortable when we're together. Your comfort with me, is my number one priority. A safe place for you to be your true natural self.


02.


Authenticity


Your love. Your values. Your personality. I will never pressure you into doing something that does not feel true to who you are - wether that be posing, what you where, or how you portray your love for one another.


03.


Intentional Detail



You've spent so much time planning these perfect moments, and you've probably heard this so many times, but it goes by quick - so so quick. It's so important to me that you take the time to soak in every moment as it happens, and leave all the stress and worry to me to give you your memories in photos to hold to for years to come.
