Hi there, I'm Shelbi.

Horses have always been my first love - a devotion only the truly horse-crazy can understand. Growing up eventing and restarting off-the-track Thoroughbreds, I spent every spare moment at the barn, and that passion naturally evolved into storytelling through photography. Since going into business, I’ve traveled across the United States capturing prestigious horse shows, creating signature portraits for equestrians and pet owners, and crafting fine art pieces that celebrate the bonds we share with our animals.

I believe the most meaningful portraits come from genuine connection, not just technique. Every session begins with getting to know your story - your vision, your animals, and your bond - so together we can create imagery that feels effortless, authentic, and deeply personal. My goal is simple: to provide a joyful experience and timeless portraits that honor the relationships and moments you cherish most.

When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll find me exploring the outdoors - hiking, skiing, kayaking, or discovering new places (coffee in hand, of course). Based in North Idaho, I serve clients across Washington, Oregon, Montana, and beyond, and I’m always happy to travel wherever your story takes me.
