Cheryl Van Stockum

Photography is my love language.

Cheryl’s photos hang on the walls of the Shelbyville Conference Center, Shelby County Court House, Shelbyville City Hall, and Shelby County Community Theatre. She is a regular contributor to Shelby County Life Magazine. 

Her images can be seen on her signature line of note cards, calendars, and prints for home and business decor.  Cheryl is available to photograph family and individual portraits, personal branding sessions, events, as well as custom and stock images for websites and marketing. 

Cheryl Van Stockum lived, learned, and raised her sons in Louisville. Moving to Shelbyville in 2007, she quickly became immersed in the community she calls her “new hometown.” Cheryl is sometimes a nurse, often an actress and writer, always a photographer, and seizes every opportunity to be traveler and gardener. Kentucky born, she loves wandering the small towns, and meandering back roads with her husband Reggie. She's blissfully grateful for all who call her Mom, wife, daughter, sister, aunt, friend, and Grandma Cheryl.

“My journey started in the backyard with a Brownie, grew from hobby, to enthusiast, to the opening of my own photography business. Feeling most at home behind my camera, I know this journey to be a gift…a gift that feeds my soul every step of the way…a gift I embrace, cultivate, and share. Each of my photos tell a story, because within me a story is stirred. Stories of back road wanderings, celebrations, and people who cross my path. To everyone who steps in front of my lens, invites me into their life, and trusts me with their stories. Thank you.”
