YOUR LOVE IS UNLIKE ANY OTHER

I don’t just show up and shoot and hand over a gallery a few weeks later. To me, capturing your love story deserves more than that. My process is built around connection. I create best when I feel my couples can be open and vulnerable with me- which means I love building a friendship with my clients. When you're comfortable with me, it helps me understand your story best, thus giving you the most authentic moments possible.

I can’t wait to document every moment

Family + lifestyle

I believe family photos should be more than just perfectly posed smiling at the camera, even though I’ll make sure to throw a few of those in there! I believe it should be unposed, spending quality time together and me there documenting it all. Go to your favorite place together, hike up Bell Rock, or run along the beach and build sand castles, whatever it is I’ll be there to capture those special memories.

Sydney is the best of the best.

Sydney isn’t like your regular photographer.. she’s a COOL photographer. In all seriousness, though - Sydney is the best of the best. She photographed a couple’s session of myself and my partner, and shortly thereafter ended up photographing my fiancé’s surprise proposal! And I wouldn’t have wanted anyone else to be part of that special moment.
Sydney has such a way of making you feel comfortable in front of the camera (which was exactly what I needed as I’m not very experienced being photographed!) She becomes so much more than just your photographer when you work with her - she becomes a familiar friend, the best hype-woman, and a person you’re positive you can rely on to capture moments you’re going to cherish forever.

I can’t wait for Sydney to shoot my wedding next Spring. You’re the best and Dane and I love you, girl!"

I 100000% recommend Sydney

My husband and I decided to have a backyard wedding at a family member’s home who lived a state away about 6 weeks before the date. We weren’t expecting to find many vendors on such short notice, so our priority was a good photographer. Sydney miraculously had the weekend available and was within our budget. I am so incredibly thankful for her kindness, flexibility, creativity, and undeniable talent in capturing our wedding. She took the time to document not only the big things but the little details that made our evening so special. She shot in bright sunlight, shade, sunset, and dusk, and they all turned out beautifully. My husband and I both lost our grandmothers within a few weeks of our wedding, so the beautiful photos she captured of our last major memory with each of them are such treasures. My husband and I, along with our families, are so incredibly thankful for our wedding album. I 100000% recommend Sydney Shaye Photography.

Sydney is incredibly talented, organized, & professional.

Sydney is incredibly talented, organized, and professional. Her laid back style when shooting made us feel comfortable. That’s saying a lot because I am usually really uncomfortable in front of the camera. Her skills are one of a kind and working with her is a no brainer!!!

SYDNEY IS EASILY THE BEST PHOTOGRAPHER 

Sydney is easily the best photographer I know! We hired her for our wedding in September 2022, and she went above and beyond! Sydney is very responsive and invested in her clients; as soon as she responded to my inquiry, she answered all the questions I had. Her flexibility is unmatched too! Our venue was only available the day before the one I quoted her, and she responded in minutes about changing the date for us. Sydney also set up a coffee meeting, so we could talk about all the pictures we were looking for and a timeline. She made me feel so comfortable that I was going to get the pictures I wanted, and she even lent me advice on planning which was so helpful. The day of, she was AMAZING!! She was so kind, professional, and helpful. My husband and I are not inherently photogenic, and she made sure we felt comfortable while directing our poses that felt really natural. I loved how Sydney is both a helpful friend and a photographer on wedding day! She even had a little crochet tool to help my bridesmaids button up my dress. And our pictures are stunning!! The next day she was able to send us some sneak peeks, and I’m already having trouble picking just a few to frame—they’re all too good!! If you’re looking for a photographer for your wedding, you have to pick Sydney! She is thoughtful, professional, talented, and kind!

We LOVED having photos done with Sydney!

We LOVED having photos done with Sydney! She is super personable, makes the photo shoots fun, and captures the moments so beautifully in her photographs. I’ve had her do business branding shoots, engagement shoots, a boudoir shoot, and our wedding, and she did a fabulous job with ALL of them! She is so fun to work with and one of those photographers who really knows what she’s doing. I highly recommend her!

Sydney truly has an eye for the perfect shot.

We could not be more thrilled about how well our engagement photos turned out! Sydney truly has an eye for the perfect shot. Both my fiancé and I feel awkward in front of cameras but Sydney made us feel super comfortable and we were surprised by how much fun we had! We are so happy we chose her to capture our special day!
