Shy Heart Studios

planning it was very difficult to find vendors who work with alternative brides i.e. gothic brides. When discussing my concept I felt heard and seen!! Which is super important to me. They were happy and open to my ideas and paired me with Heather for my engagement photos and my wedding photos. Joe was our second shooter. Heather was so much fun to work with and it felt like taking pictures with your bestie. The fellas liked working with Joe and we got so many incredible photos back. Gothic brides don't sleep on this vendor!!! They are AMAZZZZZING!!!!!!!

photos!

nows how to make you relax so you don't feel weird when taking pictures. She always seems to capture the little moments. Matt goes above and beyond, even hiding in bushes to get the shot.

eel like I picked the right people for my wedding. She is so talented at making us feel comfortable in front of a camera when we have no experience. She made us feel so gorgeous and that came to life in her photos. We have not received wedding photos obviously but our engagement photos were a vision. Thank you so much for providing the best photographer we could have asked for. She was absolutely meant to photograph our wedding!! We are ecstatic with her talents and service.

and skill. On our wedding day, we wouldn't have wanted anyone else but Shy Heart Studios to capture our priceless memories. I don't think Alex or Carsten missed a moment!

y. Brianna made us feel at ease and like she’d been friends with us for years. I usually hate pictures of myself but I love all of these. Thank you for capturing the best day of our lives and helping make it so perfect!

y they moved but not too quickly they didn’t forgo any pictures! They both were very willing to take any and all requested shots. And even set up shots that we didn’t ask for, which was amazing and I really appreciated. I would not hesitate to hire Shy Heart again for any big event!

day perfectly. We have soooo many beautiful photos and memories to look back on. Couldn't ask for anything better!

cky. We both read all reviews, and looked through photos but we then made our final decisions based on my personal interaction with our vendors. I cannot say enough about Brianna and her beautiful photography skills, #1...but then her warm friendly and welcoming personality sealed the deal for us. When our daughter and soon to be son-in-law were here for the holidays, they met with Brianna for their engagement photo session and to get a feel for how they would work together. They came home giving rave reviews about their interaction, her personality and how they felt it was just the right fit for them as well. The engagement photos were amazing! (Mom relieved) As the time grew closer to the wedding, she took the time to answer all of our many questions making us feel as though we were the most important client, planned and discussed timelines, and took into account what was meaningful for us to have as keepsake memories with the photos. Wedding Day: On time, personality on high energy mode. She was in every place at every minute to capture every beautiful moment......Her creativity soared to find beautiful settings for a gorgeous outcome. Areas I had never seen photographed at the venue. Fast forward to receiving all of the photos. They are absolutely beautiful. Flawless. Amazing. The happiness that the bride and groom were feeling, the fun the wedding party was having, the joy the family was experiencing and the overall celebration by guests was captured by her lens and the passion she has for what she does. Thank you Brianna

ics for our very special day.

She was attentive and all around great to work with. Def recommend Elaine and Shy Heart Studios!

ures we received. We highly recommend ShyHeart Studios! The quality of photographs taken were great and they have excellent customer service!

ck call with our assigned photographer, Elaine, to get to know each other. I also didn’t know where would be a good place for photos. I told Elaine, I wanted to go somewhere beachy but also had nature scenery nearby so we could have a few different looks to choose from. Elaine suggested the perfect place for us! A small local beach that had a sand side, a rock side, a beautiful big cave/mountain background, and a nearby lush green field. And I was happy she listened to my initial request and made sure we made the most of our time and got shots in front of all the different scenic backgrounds. I also thought it was a really great way to meet, since she would also be photographing our wedding too. We’re not models, so posing for couple pictures didn’t come natural to us, but Elaine was really good about making us feel comfortable and positioning us and getting the most flattering angles. She’s a true professional! Prior to our wedding date, we had another call to go over the wedding day timeline and shots. I’m really happy we did this to make sure we were all aligned. On the wedding day, she was on time, professional, and spent nearly the whole day with us. She got all the shots I wanted and more! And their turnaround time is really quick! We got our final wedding photos in about a week! I’m so grateful to Shy Heart Studios for capturing all of the special moments from my wedding. Elaine is the absolute best!

d cater to my vision. Shy Heart studios are reasonably price and I got a lot in my package for the price I paid! I can not wait to get my photos back!!

as an eye for great pictures and finding just the right light. We have such amazing photographs. The Shy Heart Studio team is great at responding promptly and very professional. I HIGHLY recommend. I would suggest you take a look at their amazing work.

e! Thank you again for capturing the best day!

e was amazing; always quick to respond to my emails! She even helped me finalize my wedding day timeline. The day of the wedding could not have gone smoother. They made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and gave us great direction. They were truly a joy to work with and We LOVE our photos!! I would highly recommend!!

rianna and her amazing team. Before we had even booked our wedding venue, Brianna was wonderful and flexible in meeting with us to answer all of our questions, and help us make several decisions that we hadn't even considered. As someone who went to school for photography, I had a lot of questions, and Brianna's friendly professionalism put any worries I had to rest. My husband and I both felt very well informed when we left, and we booked our wedding venue, and Shy Heart Studios shortly after that meeting. When Brianna took our engagement photos, my normally very introverted husband was very talkative and comfortable, so we got some amazing and genuine moments from our session. I have four stunning canvases from that shoot in our living room now. Going from our engagement photo session, I knew we would be in good hands on our wedding day. Brianna and Melissa were our wedding day photographers, and were absolutely wonderful. It felt like having two extra friends there who were sharing our special day with the same happiness as our friends and family. I truly appreciated the advice throughout the day to help me calm my nerves and anxiety over the timeline. It was an absolutely perfect day, and I am so thankful we chose Brianna and Shy Heart Studios to capture our wedding and engagement photos, and would [and have already!] recommend her and her team to anyone looking for a photographer for their wedding.

d not be happier with our decision to have booked Brianna and her team! Not only are our engagement and wedding photos gorgeous and something we will love and cherish forever, but Brianna made the whole process so fun and easy! The day-of she was so professional and kept us on track, and at the same time she managed to bring more love and joy to our wedding day than we could have ever imagined. And one of the best parts was that she sent us a sneak peek just a few days later! We LOVE our photos and adore this oh-so-talented girl! We cannot wait to book her for more of life's precious moments once we start a family :)

t photos to our wedding day. she is professional yet so much fun and really knows how to make you feel comfortable We also had Sarah as our second shooter and she did amazing as well. thank you shy heart for perfectly capturing our most important day!

ding. We were matched up with Brianna, and to say that she is amazing is an understatement. She went above and beyond our wildest expectations! We first met her when we did our engagement photos and we hit it off the minute we met her. On the day of our wedding we had Brianna and Melissa as our photographers, and they did an AMAZING job. They always say that you don’t really remember your wedding because of how fast it went, but with the pictures that Brianna and Melissa captured we are able to relive our wedding whenever we look at them. They went above and beyond my expectations and made sure that we got the pictures we wanted!

st to work with. Cara was our lead photographer for our engagement photos and wedding photos and she did not disappoint! As a bride who was planning her own wedding, there are a million things to do and vendors to book and appointments to make, and Shy Hearts made the process so much easier for me. They were very responsive with emails and calls (this was VERY important to me because I had vendors who wouldn’t respond back to me for 2 weeks) and once I had booked with Shy Hearts, Cara reached out to me right away to introduce herself to me! Not only that, I was a bit nervous before our engagement photo session, but Cara guided us the whole entire way from which way we should pose to where we should go next to take pictures with amazing scenery. On our wedding day, Cara came early with her assistant photographer and was constantly keeping track of where we should take photos and who we should take it with. She helped make the day a little less hectic and knew exactly what she was doing which I’m grateful for. Cara was very professional, punctual, and an amazing photographer to work with. Her work is awesome and all in all, I was VERY happy with booking with Shy Hearts! Thank you Cara and Shy Hearts for capturing all the amazing moments during our engagement/wedding day!

venue really well and where to take the best pictures. We will be forever grateful to Lauren for capturing our special day!

get a feel for our wedding day photography. After seeing some of the pictures at Vellano, we called up ShyHeart and my worries were put to rest by the reassuring team. Our executive photographer, Alex, had a bubbly personality and communicated by phone or email as per my request when needed. On the day of the wedding, Alex and associate photographer, Sarah coordinated with my groomsmen to get some getting ready shots as my normally OCD brain decided to take an unwarranted LOA. Despite some mix up with our wedding officiant and uncooperative family members who just HAD to get their own shots which could have resulted in some disastrous photos, our awesome photographers still caught wonderful images of our ceremony and even talked some sense into our family members to get out of the way without being rude. As more disaster would strike, our giant bus full of guests including the my husband and I were stuck in traffic on the way to the reception which caused a huge delay in the timeline we had set up. However, sweet Alex and Sarah reassured us and guaranteed that they would capture our long-awaited bridge shot, which was one of our reasons for choosing the venue! The ladies ensured that we were able to catch the sunset in the rotunda - my husband’s one request - even re-arranging the reception timeline with the DJ so that we didn’t miss our opportunity. They caught amazing candid shots of my family and friends throughout the reception which bring me back to that wonderful day every time I look back on those photos. My husband and I were very lucky that we did not have to go through an endless list of photographers to find the best one for us. We are thankful that we made the perfect choice for our wedding photography and we have hundreds of amazing pictures to help us relive that special day. We want to thank Alex, Sarah and ShyHeart for their great work in making sure that our wedding day is commemorated forever.

er that it was easy for us to relax and have fun while she took our pictures. Our family really enjoyed Lauren and had lots of fun with her. Lauren took so many amazing photos it’s so hard for us to narrow down the ones we want to hang around our house. I definitely recommend going with Shy Heart Studios for any of your photo needs. They are well organized and I love how they try and match your personality with their photographers. They hit the nail on the head when they assigned Lauren to us. Thank you Shy Heart Studios!!! Special thank you to Lauren!!!

. Engagement pictures were beautiful and wedding pictures were even better. My family loved her! Good communication which made the experience seamless. Highly suggest booking shy heart studios

n top of all the details and pictures that needed to be done. Pre-Wedding work was smooth and detailed. This company was so great to have on such a special day! Their professionalism oozed and made the best day be the funnest day! I am so appreciative of this company! I will definitely use again and forever!

tured us as a couple-not staged-very creative and natural. We would recommend Shy Heart to everyone-you won't be disappointed!! Thanks Brianna!!!

led our contract. However, Brianna stepped right in and gave us hope that we would still be able to get beautiful shots of our day to come! She shot our engagement session and our wedding and exceeded our expectations!! Both her and Elaine played so well off one another and got such amazing and creative shots!! We planned our wedding from an entirely different country and throughout the entire process, Brianna amazing and always readily available to answer any questions and ease this process for us (communication is KEY). We have made a life-long friendship with Brianna and cannot wait to have her shoot our next big moment in our lives-our BABY that comes in March of 2017!! We would recommend her and her awesome crew to everyone and anyone!! We love you!

when it comes to details, responds quickly to all questions/ concerns, and genuine (trust me, we interviewed a ton of photographers and we were blown away by how professional she is and how much she cares about her clients). When we met with her we fell in love with her style. She has knack for making you feel completely comfortable in front of the camera and we head such a good time on top of it all. We're not that couple who loves to be photographed and Brianna made us feel like models since pretty much every photo was Pinterest-worthy. We had the best mix of artistic and candid shots! Additionally, not only is Brianna super talented but she's extremely kind, patient, and an all-around joy to be around--a breath of fresh air in the crazy, stressful world of wedding-planning. Thank you, Brianna and Shy Heart Studios for beautifully capturing one of the most important events in our lives. Can't wait to capture more memories!

EALLY challenging for me. I looked for a few months before narrowing it down to about 25 possible photographer companies. It just so happened that my fiance and I went to a wedding for a close friend where Cara and Bianca were the photographers and we both were so impressed with their style and energy. During dinner we approached them and asked for a card and to my surprise Shy Heart Studios was already on my list. So that night I emailed them and set up an interview, as soon as we finished the interview I knew Cara was a perfect fit for us, so we booked her and Bianca for our wedding. Soon after we did our Engagement shoot and we had a blast, Cara made us feel comfortable and worked with our goofy-ness. We got the pictures way faster than we expected and loved every single one! In the time before the wedding the office and scheduling staff (I mostly spoke with Ann who was wonderful) helped me through all the steps in making a schedule for the wedding that would get everything we needed photographed in a reasonable time frame. The morning of the wedding Cara was there early and was able to scout out the best places for our first look pictures and then they very efficiently started taking pictures of us getting ready, and were troupers through all the stuff that always happens at weddings. (make-up problems, running late ect.) they stayed on top of things and kept us on schedule while keeping amazing attitudes! We loved having them there with us and cant wait for the pictures!

ly could have imagined. I especially liked Brianna's skill at conveying our personalities through her images. She made the whole process comfortable - making sure we got the shots she knew we wanted while allowing us to be ourselves and experiment. We did not have to worry about anything - all of the details were taken care of. I could not have asked for better images to remember our special day.

time scouting the day before the event. She has her idea and then quickly executes it so we were never standing around waiting for the next shot. Our photos came out beautiful, our "sneak peek" was over 100 images and both my husband and I can't stop looking at them.
