“Mon is a super star photographer and professional business woman. She goes the extra mile to ensure all aspects of planning, execution and editing is flawless. My parents were professional wedding photographers for over 10 years so choosing the right person was very important to our family. Mon really impressed them and all of us in her attention to detail, creativity and genuine flare in her work. Definetly worthy of the best vendor award!”

Traveling the world for love!
I’m Monica McQuitty, (most people call me Mon) the passionate photographer behind love by shae.
love by shae was named after: My gorgeous daughter, Shae.
With over 15 years of experience working as a full time wedding photographer, my focus is on capturing genuine, natural moments, allowing you to create lasting memories with your loved ones.
I’m always talking about the light and I follow it wherever it takes me, even across the world. I’m extremely fortunate it has taken me as far as Fiji and Bali to capture weddings!
I strive to capture your authentic selves in each shot, using my expertise in angles, light, editorial framing, and storytelling to bring out the very best in every photograph.
But nothing excites me more than creating timeless art for my couples to treasure forever. From guiding you in creating a complete timeline for your special day, right through to delivering your final (tear-jerking!) images and album - I’ll be by your side throughout your entire wedding journey.
