    Reliable, Creative, and Caring

    My fiance and I have used Keli for many different occasions and our engagement shoot was no exception to her brilliant level of creativity and service. Keli's vibe is laid back yet professional. She is fun to be around and really makes you feel like you've known her for a long time, which is good for a photographer. Even for people who are a little uncomfortable posing in front of a camera, you can be sure that each of Keli's photos is incredible and well planned out. I cannot recommend her highly enough for her quality of work. Not only is the product amazing, but the experience is worth every Shiny Penny.

    Magic = captured!

    *Finger snaps* for Shiny Penny Studios; you captured our Cleveland Wedding beautifully!

    It was love at first meeting with Keli Schimelpfenig at the helm & Whitney Miller at her side. Adept at "stealth mode;" consummate artists, craftswomen, and professionals; personable, energetic, and punctual; all of which led to not only a remarkable product, but also an extraordinary, unforgettable collaboration.

    Shiny Penny Studios is a powerhouse whose talented, female-owned, photographic prowess captured the essence of our wedding journey and celebration.

    Shine on, ladies!

    No Words for How Wonderful + Talented Shiny Penny Studios Is

    More than a photographer, Keli from Shiny Penny Studios is a professional advisor the day-of, truly comedic relief, and a deeply socially adept organizer who somehow made a rather incoherent-feeling weekend become and appear (magically?) cohesive once the day was done. As a client, you end up owning your own files (an offering not all photographers even allow without charge!). And of course – the thing most people care about – the photos of course are truly gorgeous. The end results is not highly treated or filtered, but rather true-to-life photos that still impressively maximize the light, beauty, life in each and every shot. KELI WE LOVE YOU. Thank you, again.

    Perfect photographer for you

    Keli is my go to for all photos. She is perfect. She and my fiancé planned out how to photograph him proposing to me and her capturing it all without me having any idea. It was simply perfect. I will treasure these photos forever and I can’t wait to see how our future wedding photos will be because Keli will 100% be there

    Gorgeous Photos!

    We worked with Keli for our reception and could not have been happier. She highlighted us as a couple, got all of guests in photos, and made sure we got all of the photos we wanted. Her work is real and so beautiful. We feel so lucky to have Keli capture our day!

    Wonderful Photographer

    Keli took our engagement pictures and our wedding/reception pictures, and we are so incredibly happy that we worked with her! We can't say enough good things about her and her photography. Keli is so friendly but still professional. She really made us feel at ease and kept us laughing. Her photos are absolutely gorgeous. We LOVE our engagement and wedding pictures and have gotten so many compliments from other people as well. She captured great candid moments throughout our day in addition to the posed photos with our wedding party and family that we wanted. We highly recommend Keli - we would love to work with her again in the future!

    Fabulous Day and Fabulous Pics!

    Keli is fantastic! She was great at putting us at ease, and making us laugh. Her photos came out amazingly. She was super stealthy while taking pics during our mini-reception. We didn't even notice! 10 out of 10, would recommend. ❤

    The Perfect Photographer with the best attitude

    Keli not only made me and my fiancé feel comfortable as gay men, but celebrated with us. Trying to find a photographer that is accepting is one thing, but finding one who loves her job is another, and she does both. Not only were the pictures phenomenal, she got us a sneak peek in a couple of hours after the proposal. Keli is by far the best photographer I have encountered. We will be using her for our wedding. She made our experience magical.

    Engagement Photos

    My fiancé and I loved working with Keli! She was amazing and very professional and always kept it fun. We were terrified taking our pictures and she made us feel so relaxed! We felt like models all day! The picture turnaround was amazing — we got our prints back in about a week and I love how they turned out! There was no way I couldn’t hire Kelli to photograph our wedding after how pleased we were with our engagement photos! If you’re considering a photographer, look no further than Shiny Penny Studios! Can’t thank her enough :)

    Wedding Photography

    Keli and her team were incredible in making our wedding day special. Both our original wedding day and our post-covid reception a year later. She responds quickly, has reasonable pricing, and takes the perfect shots. 10/10 I would highly recomend!

    Absolutely Wonderful

    We honestly could not have asked for a better photographer. Kelli made us feel relaxed and it was like working with a friend. She captured every moment and the pictures could not have turned out better. Everyone in our family has made remarks about how talented our photographer was and how great the pictures turned out. She is very very good at her job. Her price was very reasonable and I got a TON of excellent pictures! They are all so good I am having a hard time choosing which to use for my photo book, because they are all great. When my sister gets married she already said she knows who her photographer is going to be! I would recommend her to everyone and anyone. I could not have asked for a better experience. Thank you so much Shiny Penny Studios for capturing our day so perfectly

    Shiny Penny Studios

    Keli of Shiny Penny Studios was such a great photographer! She was so friendly and personable and was very helpful and vocal about helping us find poses and spots to take our engagement photos. She was open and willing to allow us to bring Wanda and swords as props to use too, which made our experience and time with her unique and exciting. We will be doing another short session with our dog soon and booked her to shoot our wedding next spring. I would recommend her any and everyday!! The final prints were wonderfully edited and looked so much better than I could have imaged!

    Unique Wedding Photos

    Keli took some very amazing, unique photos of my husband & I in Vegas. We were looking for something a little less conventional, as well as some traditional shots, and she took photos that were beyond our expectations! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a fun, adaptable photographer. You will not be disappointed!
