Hi everyone! We’re Tommy and Shelbi, the duo behind Old Oak Photo Co. Photography has been in Tommy’s family for generations, and his passion grew from both a love of storytelling and a background in stage and film. Shelbi has been part of this journey from the beginning, helping behind the scenes with posing, editing, details, and keeping sessions fun (especially with kiddos and fur babies). Together, we combine experience, creativity, and teamwork to capture moments you’ll love for a lifetime.


We can’t wait to meet you and tell your story.
