Shay here, owner and photographer at Shay Photography. Thanks for considering me to capture your memories. When I am not working you can find me spending time with my farmer hubby and two beautiful daughters (I'm their permanent paparazzi).

Things I love: donuts & coffee, exploring the great outdoors on the hunt for the perfect photoshoot locations, buying stuff off Amazon Prime, jamming out to 80's rock music (any Queen lovers out there?), volleyball, the satisfaction of finishing a good book, and watching Netflix (I watch Parks & Recreation on repeat).What feeds my photography soul?
Services
Congratulations, you're engaged! Thanks for considering me to photograph one of the biggest days of your life. I take that role very serious! I arrive to each wedding day with a huge smile on my face, excitement in my heart, eager to capture your love and all the details you worked so hard to plan!
Family photos can be stressful! Maybe thats why you haven't updated them in years? I am here to help and make family photo day fun and easy! From location options to outfit selection I am here to make your family session a breeze! No family too big or small, I have photographed small families of 3 and my biggest yet, an extended family session with over 50 adults and children.
Scroll down to pick your package then contact Shay to book your session and work with her to find the perfect locations for your session. Attend your senior session. During your session Shay will get to know you, your hobbies, your dreams and create images that are a direct reflection of your unique self!
Coordinate a time 1-2 days prior to your wedding to pick up the key to the suite, and return it the day after your wedding. You can access the space to drop off dresses, makeup, snacks, add decorations to your liking etc., and clean up after you've got a good night's sleep. This makes all day-of festivities fun and easy for you!

Couldn’t have been more lucky with having Shay as our wedding photographer, she was flexible with us to changes due to Covid, super fun to work with, and the pictures turned out amazing!

When we were looking for a wedding photographer that was affordable and provided they style we were looking for, it was an easy decision to choose Shay. We love our photos from our engagement session, I highly recommend her, we were comfortable and our personalities really shine through from our session. Thank you, Shay!

We used Shay for our Minneapolis wedding ( & engagement shots) and could not have been more pleased with our photographs!!! She is a phenomenal photographer. On top of producing top notch photos, the experience of working with her was amazing. She was efficient, organized, stress-free, and very fun! She went above and beyond to make our experience unforgettable. 10/10 recommend Shay Photography

We absolutely loved having Shay as our wedding photographer. She is incredibly talented and so fun to work with. My husband hates taking pictures but thoroughly enjoyed the experience with Shay, she made everyone in our wedding party feel so comfortable. She exceeded our expectations in capturing our wedding day and we are in love with all of our photos, our biggest dilemma was picking which photos to frame in our home because they were all so good! We are forever grateful for all of her hard work and for her sharing her talent with us!
