Luke Shoemaker, CPA is the owner of Shoemaker CPA, one of the few CPA firms in Virginia built around planning rather than compliance. He advises mass affluent and high-net-worth individuals, closely held businesses, and their owners on complex tax and financial decisions.
Unlike traditional accounting firms that center their work around compliance, Luke takes a planning-first approach, focusing on the gray areas where the tax code and financial planning intersect, and where structure and strategy drive outcomes. Rather than treating tax work as a commodity, he works with clients to develop integrated strategies that connect tax planning with broader financial decisions.
He works with a limited number of clients who are seeking a long-term advisory relationship and who value insight, clarity, and thoughtful decision-making over transactional services like tax preparation.

Many accounting firms answer every call. That's not a criticism; it's a pattern that's common in the industry. It also means reactive advice given between interruptions, which isn't the kind of advice that moves anyone's position forward.
No pressure, no pitch. A short conversation to see if we're the right fit.
