Berry Photography

Welcome to Berry Photography. My name is Shelley Berry and I live in Hanna, Oklahoma – a very small community in McIntosh County. After serving as Executive Editor for Oklahoma Living Magazine for 6 years, I left the city life and opened my own photography business.

My degree in journalism gives me a perspective on photos that is different from a traditional photographer – I truly try to tell a story in the photos and evoke the emotion of the people in them. It’s not simply a photo, it’s a part of your life that you are trying to capture to hold on to for generations. No matter if it’s your wedding day or a photo of your new baby, the emotions of the event are just as important as the people in them.

I specialize in location photography, so that a senior portrait can be on the family farm or at your favorite hangout. Pregnancy and infant photos can be done in the privacy of your own home instead of at a studio. As a mom of a 4 year-old and a one-year-old, I know that kids feel more comfortable in their natural environment, not a stuffy office. I don’t put time limits on sessions, sometimes things just take a little longer than planned when you are shooting infants for example. I work on their schedule, so if we need to take the time to change a diaper and have a nap – that is fine with me.

My love of family and God, I believe has made me a better photographer for you. I understand how it feels on a wedding and the anxiousness of holding a newborn baby. I want to be there to make you feel comfortable and relaxed and simply enjoy the moment as I capture it for generations to come.
