we love because he first loved us
All the small, unplanned moments, the ones you didn’t schedule, but felt in your soul, are the ones that linger long after the day has passed. The laughter as your partner laces up your hiking boots for your trek up a mountainside. The tears as you fix your grandpa’s tie right before he walks down the aisle. The joy of sharing shelter under a jacket when it starts to rain. Because this is more than perfectly posed photos. More than carefully staged moments.
These are the moments that remind you that love is both ordinary and miraculous, and that being fully present in it is one of the greatest gifts of the human experience. This is about remembering the beauty of being alive together, exactly as you are, in a moment that only happens once.
As a destination wedding photographer my heart is to photograph your love as the living, breathing work of art that it is, with as much intention, authenticity, and joy as possible.
In 50 years, when you look back at these photos, you won’t see timelines or trends. You’ll see truth. You’ll feel love. You’ll remember how it felt to be fully present, connected in a way words can’t explain, and wildly grateful to have experienced it together.
This is what you'll remember on your wedding day...
So, where do you see yourself getting married? on a mountain top? In your childhood backyard? At a villa abroad?
Let me help you build and document your sacred day.
Need location scouting and permit assistance for your elopement? I got you.
Don’t know how to set up a wedding day timeline? Let me help!
Not sure where to even start? I do!
Don’t juggle the schedule, stress, and to-do list on your own. I’ll walk alongside you.
No matter the size, style, or location you choose for your wedding, I’m here to help you enjoy the process. You’ll spend your big day fully present in the joy of your love, the sacredness of your vows, and the company of those who matter most.
I’m honored you’re here! I’m a destination wedding photographer with a heart for documenting intentional and authentic stories. I’m currently based in Phoenix, Arizona. My work has taken me from an extravagant day in Lake Como, Italy, to a deeply intimate elopement in Rocky Mountain National Park.
My favorite part of the job is getting to know the stories of the people I work with. How you got to where you are. How you view the season you’re in. Getting to see the person you really are behind the camera.
What makes me, me?
-Spending time with Jesus
-Loving on my husband, dog, and two cats
-Playing board games or pickleball with friends
-Sipping coffee
-Planning DIY home projects that rarely come to fruition lol
-Capturing sacred stories
so nice to meet you! I'm Shea, Jesus Loving sunset chaser + visual storyteller.
hey I'm Shea!

"We are SO happy and blessed to have found Shea because we honestly couldn't imagine having anyone else take our photos for us! She was another one of our vendors who had such a calm and present energy and helped us ground ourselves a couple of times during the day. (Gathering family for family photos - man is that a trip. haha) She joined us for some exploring in the Redwoods as we read our personal vows privately and she made the process so fun and relaxing and made sure to capture our authentic selves since it was so easy to be ourselves around her!"
