a blog by shea

Hey y’all!

I’m Shea and I'm so pumped that you’ve found the blog!

Things you might not know, so let's just put 'em out there...

-My love languages are hugs and mix cds.

-In college, my best friend and I were middle-school-party DJs.

-My DJ name: shicka shicka boom boom.

-Nickname ever since: Shea boom, boom boom or just boom.

-I have a lazy eye and ZERO depth perception.

-Therefore, I'm the opposite of athletic, a pretty bad driver and fear things being thrown at me.

-Some things I love (in no particular order):

my little sisters

junky toy cameras

jenkins the whippet

Jesus

air brushed shirts

catch phrase

remodeling houses

riding trains

bubbles in my drink

scarves

letterpress

80's prom dresses

wedding receptions

sleeping babies

comments on my blog {hint, hint}

THIS job.

God continues to bless me with a gift to capture and create.

I'm discovering lately a calling to share the art in the ordinary... to find the good in life's magical and not-so-magical moments... but plenty of photographers could say this, right? So how about while we're caputuring that art in your life, TONS O FUN is had in the process? We'll probably become BFF, too. :) Sold?

I love to travel and hereby announce that I will photograph your international wedding for free! Until then, the majority of my wandering and shooting will be spent in the South, where I proudly call Tennessee “home,” and sweet home Alabama my second.

Here you can follow my recent work, adventures and all the latest goings-on, most likely on a slight time delay until I overcome my fear of blogging (mostly the writing).

I hope you enjoy what you see, because I enjoy what I do.
I sincerely can’t wait to meet you!

-Shea, but you can call me boom. :)
