More About This Website

Welcome to our blog! Here you can learn a little more about ShelleyAndKeith Photography-- who we are, what we do, and how we do it-- with plenty of images from our photographic adventures. You can see more wedding imagery on our PORTFOLIO SITE, www.shelleyandkeith.com

We photograph weddings in New Jersey, New York City, Connecticut, and Philadelphia, always working together as a team. For the start of the day, we can be in two locations to capture the preparation of bride and groom simultaneously. The rest of the day involves our practiced teamwork. After hundreds of weddings, we know how to capture moments from multiple angles simultaneously, which expands the storytelling power of our coverage. We have each won awards from the Wedding PhotoJournalist Association (WPJA), and also have an award from the Artistic Guild of the Wedding Photojournalist Association (AGWPJA). Our work has been published in Brides Magazine. We are a 2010 pick for The Knot's Best of Weddings.

We look forward to capturing the unique and subtle qualities of our couples, letting their relationship lead the way, with a minimum of posing. After all, the whole idea is to communicate the singular love story that is at the heart of a beautiful wedding day.

    Fun with Jen & Matt at Wilson Hall

    Jennifer and Matthew, AKA Jen & Matt, covered three locations on their wedding day, starting with their ceremony in Brick, then onto Wilson Hall at Monmouth University, and finally arriving at the PNC Arts Center for the reception. Sometimes all these locations can make for complicated logistics, but all in all it went pretty smoothly, and everybody had a lot of fun. Even with all the different locations, the best thing about this wedding was: Jen and Matt! Their positivity and sense of joy really set the tone for the bridal party, friends and family. The fun starts at the top, and these guys were taking care of biz... 

    So let's begin with a beautiful portrait of Jen, just ready to leave her house for the church (I guess that actually makes 4 locations altogether):

    Somebody's happy! Now, the ceremony was beautiful and meaningful, with some serious moments of commitment and connection. We took advantage of our photographic teamwork to capture these synchronized views of Jen processing (check out the gorgeous gown) while Matt watches:

    A lighter moment during the ceremony:

    And a nice exit shot as our newly married couple recess:

    Black and white works great for classic images like these, it's timeless.

    Now the scene changes to Wilson Hall, where we had a blast making creative shots with the bridal party. Here's one we loved, each person bringing something unique, and yet it all works together:

    Big fun! And while we were there, we spent a few minutes creating some portraits with Jen & Matt, lots of nice opportunities at this beautiful location:

    We could have used some more time at Wilson Hall, but soon enough it was onto the PNC Arts Center, which most of us think of for big summertime open air concerts-- but they also have a nice reception hall there too. Definitely worth a look, and it's right off the GSP, super convenient... The party was rocking, and we got some cool dancing evidence:

    It was a great day, and we appreciate all the planning, presence and joy that Jen and Matt brought to it! We close this one with a shot of their cup-cake cake, along with, you know, that kissing thing...
