Meet the Photographer

That experience is what makes me so comfortable photographing weddings. No matter what the day brings, I stay calm, keep things moving, and make sure you get beautiful photos.
When I’m not working I’m usually surfing or skateboarding. I also enjoy playing drums, guitar and pickleball.

Meet the Day of Coordinator
My name is Shelby with Slow Morning Creatives and I’ve been a Locations scout and manager for film and TV productions on Oahu since 2015, which basically means I’ve spent the past decade figuring out how to make chaos look organized. A lot of that work happened right here at Kualoa Ranch, which slowly became one of my favorite places on the island.After years of helping film crews chase light and hit deadlines, I started helping couples do the same thing, only now there are flowers, vows, and slightly less yelling. I still run timelines, keep things calm, and quietly make sure everyone ends up in the right place at the right time. It’s kind of the same job, just with nicer outfits and a lot more meaningful.Experience & Skills
10+ years in film and television coordination across Oahu
Deep familiarity with Kualoa Ranch logistics, staff, and site access
Expert in managing tight timelines and early-morning schedules
Calm, organized presence when plans shift or weather changes
Strong communication and vendor coordination skills
Trained eye for composition, flow, and detail
Known for being early, prepared, and quietly keeping everything on track
