  • About Me

    My passion for photography began several years ago, when I purchased my first 35 mm (film) camera. Technology has changed significantly over the years, but what hasn't changed is my love of capturing meaningful moments. The sun rising over the Grand Canyon, or setting over Grand Lake, the day a child is born, the adoring looks of a newly engaged couple, a special anniversary -- capturing these moments and recording the images brings me great joy.

    My goal is to make your photo shoot great fun and to provide you with images that you will cherish for many years. Any of the landscape images on my website, Facebook page, or Instagram can be custom-sized for your home or office. Contact me for prices and for information about upcoming art shows/sales.

    There is beauty all around us and in every individual. Capturing this beauty and reflecting the personality of each person I photograph is very rewarding. I provide on-location portrait shoots in and around the state of Oklahoma, and in my studio in Edmond. I look forward to working with you.

Beautiful Queenstown, New Zealand

In November 2019, my husband and I returned to the South Island of New Zealand after our first visit more than 20 years ago. During our first visit, we fell in love with the South Island and have always wanted to return. We spent several days in Queenstown, a great base to re-explore and discover many areas in and around the city, which has had tremendous growth from the sleepy little town we remembered. A shout out to Hidden Lodge, an incredible bed and breakfast we felt fortunate to find via some extensive online research. The staff, service, meals and rooms were absolutely top notched and the views, some of which are included here, were stunning. Any of these images (or others on my website) can be converted into art for your home or office. If you have questions, you can email me at sheryl@sherylmclain.com.

Oklahoma Sunset

Last Saturday, the sunset at Grand Lake was a WOW! As we watched the sky being painted by the setting sun and enough clouds to add some drama, all we could say was, “Wow,” over and over again. Some of these have to find their way onto aluminum and stretched canvas. They’d also look great on metallic print paper, for those who prefer that. Contact me if I can place a custom order for you. All art is signed by me. The lightweight aluminum is heat and water resistant. Both the aluminum and stretched canvas pieces are ready to hang in your home or office. If you have questions you can E-mail: sheryl@sherylmclain.com.

Beautiful Lake Hefner

Recently, I’ve been able to capture some stunning sunsets at Lake Hefner here in Oklahoma City. I stayed around after the sun went down and caught some lights reflecting on the calm water. Here are a few from February and March 2020. Any of these can be converted into art for your home or office. They make wonderful, unique gifts. Feel free to email me if you have any questions sheryl@sherylmclain.com.

White Pelican Migration

This past fall, we had an opportunity to again witness the amazing white pelican migration here in Oklahoma, as they make their way south for the winter. Here are some images of this fall, as well as some from three years ago, when I saw this for the first time. These were all taken at Grand Lake, near Afton, Oklahoma. Any of these can be converted into art and ready to hang in your home or office. All art is signed by me and is truly unique and one of a kind.

Bucket List Trip to Bora Bora

In October, my husband and I spent a week in this tropical paradise in French Polynesia, an 8 hour flight from San Francisco. We have been to the tropics many times, but not here, and not in this part of the globe. I can’t say enough about the lovely people, the white sand, the turquoise water, the over-the-water bungalows, and the delicious fresh seafood and Polynesian fare. We may have to return. Here are a few of my images, all of which can be converted into signed art for your home or office. Contact me if I can help you with a slice of paradise. You can contact me through the website here, or directly at sheryl@sherylmclain.com.
