Hi. As you know from the first post this is a blog about Shelly Funke (pronounced funky). How I know her or for how long is irrelevant, this is about her art. Shelly has been a photographer for over 25 years and as a word of mouth only promoter she currently stands without the true work and acknowledgement she has earned. Through this blog you will be able to see her work, ask her advice and gain helpful hints and tools to help you grow your own photographic talents. She is a mother of two children (both with children of their own now), a loyal friend, and a phenomenal photographer.
As this blog progresses I will keep you up to date on her current shoots, her portfolio and of course, always her latest, greatest shot!
Shelly is currently working full time at a commercial studio through out the weeks but filling her weekends with weddings. In September alone she has shot two weddings, a bridal, and an anniversary party. With such versatile work it is hard to sum up her talents. She is the type of photographer that will shoot anything and I mean ANYTHING. Her fun, loose, go with the flow yet highly professional attitude makes her the perfect addition to any event. Whether she is reigning in a group of hundreds for a group shot or just the fly on the wall during an intimate moment, she can handle it all. I suppose at this point the next best thing to do is shut up and show you her work. So sit back and enjoy.
The bridals below are from one of her most recent weddings in Austin. The bride had not done bridals prior to the wedding day but Shelly saw an opportunity after the Bride was already dressed and shot them on the spot.
Finally I would like to add the fantastic review the DJ from this same wedding posted just days after working with Shelly.

I hope you enjoyed this first blog, please feel free to leave your comments or questions and check back soon for some helpful tips in how to properly store your photos. The only things that came out of Shelly’s three alarm house fire were her PHOTOS!!
