It’s not every day that I get to capture a wedding that is as unique and full of love as Ellisa and Shane’s. Their beautiful day at Still Water Hollow in Nampa was nothing short of magical, and as their wedding photographer, I was truly honored to be there to document it.


Ellisa and Shane share a bond that is clearly built on strength, love, and respect, and you could feel it in every moment of their wedding day. Their Celtic heritage was woven into every detail, from the kilts and vibrant colors to the traditional styles that honored their roots. It was evident in how they looked at each other and in the way they moved through their day—this couple is destined to be together for a long, happy life.

Still Water Hollow was the perfect backdrop for their celebration. Nestled in a paradise of lush greenery, the venue provided a serene and picturesque setting for their ceremony. The quaint little white chapel stood out beautifully against the vibrant greenery, creating a stunning contrast that felt both intimate and grand at the same time. The ivy-covered walls and peaceful pond added to the serene atmosphere, making it a place I know both Ellisa and Shane—and their guests—will always remember.

The day was full of laughter, joy, and plenty of memorable moments, from the ceremony to the dancing. With plenty of space for celebration and activities, the venue offered the perfect setting for the couple to enjoy their time with loved ones.

As a photographer, I loved capturing the blend of tradition, strength, and love that defined Ellisa and Shane’s day. From the sweet glances shared during their vows to the energy on the dance floor, their wedding was a true reflection of who they are as a couple.
