Shelby Alford Photography

Shelby Alford is a lifestyle photographer based in Indiana, capturing light-filled, candid moments for families, couples, and brands. After launching her refreshed brand and website, Shelby now collaborates with Polished Code as our in-house photographer for select client shoots.

Overview

Shelby Alford came to us with a blank slate—no brand, no website, and no clear digital strategy. We created everything from scratch: her identity, messaging, website, SEO framework, and Instagram ads. Today, her brand works as beautifully as her photography—and her calendar shows it.

A Brand, Built from Scratch

When Shelby came to us, she didn’t have a brand—just great work and an even better client experience. We built everything from the ground up: her name, messaging, brand voice, color palette, logo system, and packaging structure. The result is a polished, personality-filled identity that finally reflects the level of care and quality she brings to every shoot.

A Website That Feels Like Her

We designed and developed a custom Webflow site that shows off Shelby’s photography and gently guides visitors toward booking. With spacious layouts, curated galleries, and strategic copy, the site balances storytelling with action—giving each visitor a clear path whether they’re looking for family photos or branding sessions. It’s simple, thoughtful, and distinctly Shelby.

From Hidden Gem to Booked Out

To help Shelby get found and booked, we implemented a foundational SEO strategy and launched targeted Instagram ad campaigns. We optimized her site structure and metadata, wrote copy based on client search intent, and built ads focused on her most in-demand services. The result: more traffic, more inquiries, and more bookings with the right clients.

Thank you

Working with Shelby was an easy yes. From refining her brand to launching a website that truly reflects her work, this project was a joy from start to finish. We’re even more excited that the partnership didn’t stop there—Shelby now supports Polished Code clients with custom brand photography, and we couldn’t imagine a better fit.
