Heyyy I'm Shaylee

(Shay)


Hi there, my name is Shaylee but you can call me Shay! :) I'm a Lifestyle & Wedding Photographer. I'm 28 years old from a small town in Central Illinois. I'm based in Charleston Illinois but frequently in Champaign and Sullivan IL. (travel fees may apply if your 50+ miles from Charleston) I'm engaged to my lovely fiancé Dj and we have two amazing kids together, Sylas and Ellie.


Our favorite thing to do together as a family is travel and basically anything that involves being outside. We LOVE Spring and Summer time.


I specialize in candid storytelling-style photography, I always include the basic stand/smile at the camera for mom, grandpa & grandma BUT those are always my least favorites! Let's capture that emotion, the in between moments when everybody isn't looking right at the camera or when you're soothing your sweet baby/toddler to warm them up. My goal is for you to look back of your photos and feel something. ♡.
