Hey There!

Welcome to my story!

Shelby is the name and I’m the face behind the camera. I’m a self-taught photographer, wife, and a fur-momma to two big majestic Bernese Mountain Dogs. I have been with my best friend/wife for 10 years.

I am an LGBTQ+ owner and believe equality and love is love!

The meaning of 505Photography…

When I turned 18, I sold everything I had bought a one way Greyhound bus ticket and went to Santa Fe, NM. I fell in love with the southwest, especially Santa Fe/Pojoaque, NM. There are some amazing views that you just can't get in the midwest. If you get a chance to northern New Mexico, I recommend: Puye Cliff Dwellings, Santuario de Chimayo, and The Cathedral Basilica of St. Francis of Assisi. I believe my soul belongs to the southwest. I just vibe differently there. 505 is the area code of my phone number when I lived out in Santa Fe. It holds a very special place in my heart and soul.

I’m IN LOVE with capturing people in love. I’m all about the candid moments and looking for the small connections that make each couple unique. My style is natural with lots of movement and warmth. Let’s work together!

Every life and love has a unique story. Every story deserves to be preserved truthfully, uniquely, and artistically. It should be preserved in a documentary fashion, candid style, and with beautiful portraits. I am LGBTQ+ friendly with an open mind. I strive to capture sweet, intimate, and candid moments. I'm so passionate about fostering and documenting real emotions. I'd love to tell your story.
