    Best of the best🲵

    Shane Hawkins photography was probably one of the best things about our wedding! I cannot get over how GORGEOUS all of our photos turned out. They captured every moment I asked for and then some! Looking at the photos makes me feel like I’m reliving every aspect of my favorite day! Shane and Beth were so incredible to work with and so professional. Beth assisted me and my mom secure me in my dress, they repined my bustle after it broke, & they even went and got our first cocktail for us as the new Mr. & Mrs… I mean what other photographer would go that extra mile?! Needless to say they are the best of the best and I would recommend them over and over again!

    The best experience! Could not recommend them enough! So personable, easy to talk to, easy to work with, made us feel so comfortable!

    Shane and Beth are the best! They made our destination wedding so simple! Working with them from states away was so much easier than we could’ve ever asked for! They eased every nerve up until the day of, then the day of our wedding exceeded every expectation by miles!

    Shane Hawkins Photography's reply:

    Thank you so much for the kind words! We sincerely appreciate it! Your wedding was beautiful and we are so thankful to have met you and Ben!

    Amazing photographers!

    I cannot say enough great things about Shane and Beth! Shane took our engagement pictures and they both worked together on our wedding day. When looking for a photographer to do either of these pictures, I wanted someone who did not do so much editing on the photos that it looked unnatural; the brightness and natural look of the photographs taken make them beautiful in my opinion. Shane and Beth are so kind and truly take their time getting to know you while they're working. They also were willing to assist in any other way they could (like bustling my dress after the ceremony). Not only do they do great work, but they are great people and I highly recommend them!

    Best wedding photographer!

    We could not have asked for anyone better to capture our most perfect day. Shane and Beth are always so kind and so fun to be around! Every photo that was captured was absolutely beautiful and perfect. We can’t wait to use them for the future!

    Wonderful, professional photographers!

    Shane Hawkins came as a recommendation from our planner. They were so professional and easy to work with through the entire day. They had great communication with each other and us before, during, and after the wedding. I love the aesthetic of their photos and am so happy with how my wedding photos turned out!

    Shane and Beth Hawkins - Highly Recommend!

    Posing for pictures often feels very awkward and leads to unpleasant smiles, but Shane and Beth made us feel very comfortable and relaxed so that our engagement and wedding photo shoots felt natural, and even fun! From the sweet moments like the first dance and toasts, to the fun moments like dancing and the friend who ripped his pants, we are impressed and touched by how many wonderful memories they captured at our wedding.

    A dynamic duo!

    Shane & Beth are a power duo! After seeing them beautiful capture a friend’s wedding, I couldn’t imagine anyone else shooting my wedding and they hit it out of the park! When Covid changed our plans big time, Shane and Beth were quick to pivot from our 150 person wedding to 25 person wedding and captured it absolutely beautifully. They give great posing direction and make you feel super comfortable! Would definitely recommend them to anyone!

    Amazing Editing, Dynamic Husband & Wife Duo

    I searched long and hard for a photographer whose photos were “light and bright” but not washed out, had experience at my wedding venue (Marblegate Farm), and were reasonably priced for the industry. I am so thankful I chose Shane & Beth. They are well-loved and respected by both my wedding planner and the venue coordinator and it is no surprise as to why. Not only are the photos absolutely gorgeous and masterfully edited, they are one of the sweetest couples to work with. I love Shane’s attention to detail from a photography standpoint while Beth ensures that your hair/dress/veil/flowers are perfectly situated (very important to me as these things make or break a photo!) They are also such a calming presence on your wedding day and make sure to capture plenty of photos without making you feel stressed or rushed. For photos you will cherish for the rest of your life, you absolutely want to choose the right photographer. I highly recommend Shane Hawkins!

    A Joy to Work With

    Beth and Shane were a joy to work with from the beginning and the pictures are fantastic! Their responsiveness is great, they are professional, and make you feel at ease. Neither my spouse or I particularly like being the center of attention or having our pictures taken, but they made us feel at ease. On the day of the wedding I hardly knew they were there; they did their job without making me feel like they were following me around. Recommend them 100%.

    Best photographers!!!

    We LOVED having them at our wedding and we did our engagement pics with them! Our guests said how amazing it was to see pictures of them later but that they didn’t notice photographers during the ceremony like they have at other weddings which they loved bc the pictures are AMAZING!!! They got the best shots and captured what we wanted them to perfectly including candids of us just being super happy together!! Highly recommend them!!!

    Amazing Photographers and Attentive to Detail

    Shane and Beth are wonderful!! They truly captured our day perfectly! My favorite part is their attention to detail. While Shane took some amazing photos Beth straightened out my dress, or a fly away hair, or blotted the tears from my eyes. Everything to make sure the picture turned out well! They are the best! During our engagement shoot they made us feel so comfortable even though I was a tad bit nervous. Before the end of the shoot I felt comfortable and could be myself for the photos. On our wedding day Beth followed me around while I greeted all the guests and took pictures with them. We could not have asked for better photographers! I feel like we are really friends after the event! I would highly recommend them!

    Affordable, Friendly, and Great Quality Photos

    I hired Shane + Beth to photograph my wedding after they did such an amazing job on my sister's wedding in 2016. They also took our engagement photos, when my now husband, proposed to me. So, they were there for it ALL..and captured the moments so perfectly :) Shane and Beth incorporated their ideas but were also open to hearing mine and I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome. What I love about most about their photos are the quality. When considering photographer choices, there were a lot of photographers that applied heavy filters and dramatic effects to photos, but I wanted my pictures to look clean, sharp, and real. In addition to amazing photos, Beth was pretty much the MVP of my wedding and every photo shoot - she fixed my hair, she was the ONLY person who could snap my bustle, she held my things, she kept me on schedule, she found my garter, and she made sure everything was perfect before the photo was taken. Shane takes amazing photos, but having this husband/wife tag team made all the difference. Beth also takes photos, so it was like having two photographers in one. Lastly, they were affordable. Wedding planning can get really discouraging when the price tags start to add up. I was happy that Shane and Beth had reasonable pricing. Thanks Shane and Beth for capturing this special time in my life!

    Best Wedding Photographer!

    I knew long before I ever got engaged that if I were to get married, I had to have Shane Hawkins Photography to capture those special moments. He and his wife Beth were incredible to work with! I would most certainly recommend you choosing Shane Hawkins Photography to be on your team for your most perfect day!

    Haywood Wedding / Bridal Portraits

    We got married on a rainy day and moved the venue the morning of the event, (06/08/19), Beth and Shane were flexible with the move and the images came to life that I had in my head. Beth and Shane were amazing to work with. They turned our wedding photos into cherished memories. Capturing a group like ours, wasn’t easy but they took the challenge head on! We loved working with them. And will continue to work with them again! We loved them and thankfully they have turned from photographers to friends!

    Shane and Beth were awesome to work with! They both are so sweet and professional. And they honestly went above and beyond to make everything perfect at our wedding! Shane captured every small detail and Beth remembered every pose I wanted that I had seen on Pinterest and sent her! Plus she helped with my dress! Bless her heart. She’s just so sweet! We highly recommend them. We can’t wait to see our pictures!

    Professional and Fun!

    Shane and Beth listened to what we wanted. We did a first look, which helped. The family pictures afterward only took maybe 30 minutes and then on to party. Very fun and flexible!

    This is your Photographer!

    I have had my photo taken many times before. Who hasn't?! My wife had high expectations that I didn't think anyone could meet. Shane and Beth gave us what we wanted and even more. From the engagement photos, working around our chaotic schedule or agreeing to our long list of must have family photos, Shane and Beth kept it fun, professional, and productive. You will get incredible value and high quality photos. We were convinced we were movie stars from the responses we got from Facebook of our photos. If I could do it all over again, I would be sure to give Shane Hawkins Photography the first call and we will continue to use them for all our Photography needs.

    Absolutely Fantastic

    These two were so wonderful to work with! They are very responsive and met with us multiple times before our big day! Also, they stayed much longer for our engagement shoot, so we got the sunset and moon coming up!! Our pictures were perfect and so much more than we could have imagined!

    It was everything that I have ever wanted!

    I love the work that Beth and Shane do. It didn’t take long to get our wedding pictures back. They did and outstanding job with everything. They got all of the shots that we wanted and they were so natural at working with our other vendors. We are so thankful for them and the work they have done.

    Shane and Beth are truly wonderful! I felt so calm about wedding day knowing I had them as a vendor. They were so sweet from engagement pictures, to wedding pictures, and with all conversation in between! They are consistent and timely with responses and truly make the things you value a priority. Nothing but great things to say about this couple! And I LOVED all of my pictures!!
