about

Aloha, I’m Shelly, a photographer, artist and storyteller based on Hawai‘i Island who cares deeply about connection & community.
I’m also a mother, animal rescuer and lover of art & travel. I’ve always been drawn to the little things: the way someone reaches for a hand, the expression that disappears a second later and the people who make a place feel like home.
Shelly Lynn is a photography and videography team rooted in connection, community and care. We photograph weddings, elopements, couples and families throughout the Big Island and beyond, offering gentle direction while leaving plenty of room for real life to unfold.
More than anything, I want you to feel comfortable, seen and completely yourself. Because the photographs that matter most are not simply beautiful. They bring you back to how it all felt.

"You could not find a more passionate, creative, caring, and INCREDIBLE photographer on the island. Shelly ended up capturing our proposal and before we even left we told her she was hired for our wedding no matter where it was going to be! She made us feel so comfortable throughout our session and we couldn't imagined such a special moment captured by anyone else"

xo,

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! Everything about Shelly was above and beyond. The photos were breathtaking. They were both so skilled and helpful with poses and definitely made our awkward group photos turn out stunning and so fun! Shelly listened to exactly what we wanted, and somehow did even better than our expectations!
