Hi, I'm Shelly!
Your wedding, event, or milestone moment deserves to be captured with authenticity, emotion, and a timeless, vibrant style. At Shelly Swanger Photography, I specialize in Weddings, Music, Events, Head Shots, Seniors, and Fine Art, creating images that tell your story in a natural, beautiful way.
With over 20 years of experience, I’ve had the privilege of photographing couples, families, and artists across the country, from stunning coastal weddings along the Emerald Coast to elegant events in Nashville and beyond. My goal is to create a seamless, enjoyable photography experience—whether it's an intimate elopement, a grand wedding, a lively corporate event, a concert tour, or a milestone celebration. Every detail, every emotion, and every fleeting moment is captured with care, so you can relive it for years to come.
My work has been featured in USA Today, The New York Times, Rolling Stone, Southern Living, Garden & Gun, VIE, Fretboard Journal, Bluegrass Unlimited, Emerald Coast Magazine, and American Songwriter. Years spent photographing weddings, live music, and editorial stories have shaped my approach—I aim to put viewers right in the moment, giving my clients imagery that is both artistic and deeply personal.
Your story deserves to be told with honest emotion and stunning imagery. Whether you're celebrating a wedding, an engagement, a special event, or a professional milestone, I’d love to work with you to create unforgettable photos that reflect who you are.
