Natalie Shelby

Post-production & Design

Natalie brings her creative eye to the preparation and finishing of your photographs. She helps coordinate clothing and styles before a session, then handles post-production afterwards.

She also helps select the photographic products we offer and designs albums and other finished pieces, working with you to choose options that suit your photographs and how you want to display them.

Jacob Shelby

Photographer

Jacob is usually the first person you’ll speak with. He’ll discuss what you need, work through your ideas, and plan the session with you. He’s also the person behind the camera, guiding you through the shoot so you don’t have to arrive knowing what to do.

Our Story

The Shelby Studio began with a conversation after the birth of our first son. We loved our maternity photographs, but Natalie felt they hadn’t quite captured what she’d hoped for. We started talking about what we would have wanted from the experience and the kind of photography service we could build together.

Family is central to our lives, and photographs are part of how we remember, connect, and share our history. We also understand the role they play in business: introducing people, communicating the care behind their work, and helping them present themselves with confidence.

That’s where we start with our clients: understanding what the photographs mean to you and what you need them to do.
