I had the opportunity to meet this 16 year old local songbird to take her head shots as part of her journey to pursue a country music singing career in Nashville…and fingers crossed into the hands of producers that want to sign her! We had a great time capturing her All-American girl spirit and I even got a quick listen to her sing ‘At Last’ while getting some action shots! This girl has some amazing vocals and I was so excited to meet her, her family and encourage her! A girl after my own heart, she wanted to do some shots in her sparkly pink prom dress…a la Taylor Swift. Um, of course we can do that! She rocked it out with her vintage mike she received as a gift from her brother and you could instantly see the stage presence and joy she takes in singing. So, today I share with you the fabulous Shelbi! When she has some local gig’s lined up, you know I’ll be supporting her and will let you all know when and where to see this girl perform! Thanks Shelbi for having fun with me and letting me capture your true spirit, thanks Shelly for being a great assistant and reflector holder…and Marty for making her laugh and being our prop guy! Have a great weekend everyone! -Jessica

What fun photos! I love that dress!! Especially with the boots!! 🙂
Great Pictures! We have seen Shelby perform twice at the Crystal Palace just last month. She is Outstanding! What a voice! She for sure has a career ahead of her in country music! So glad we happen to be there those two nights. We would buy her cd right now. We were blown away by her voice and she already has a great stage presence. My husband and I were just talking about her the other night as we were watching CMT’s next Superstar. We were wondering why she wasn’t on the show. She would blow them all away! Good Luck to you Shelby! We are big fans of yours already:)
