You might be nervous to hop in front of the camera, but don't worry, I'll make the whole experience fun and easy! You aren't a professional model – but you're a professional at your relationship. You know how to make your babe laugh, where their tickle spot is, and can lovingly tease them until no end. You're world champs at cuddling on the couch, have perfected forehead kisses, and your fingers fit together perfectly because that's where they belong. I don't need you to be models, I just need you, to be you. 

I create a safe space for my couples to be 100% comfortable in front of my camera and strive to capture your relationship + love just the way it is. I'm not going to pose you into things that you feel awkward. That's not what I'm about. Instead, I guide you into something that feels natural, with lots + lots of movement. We'll play games, I'll tell you super funny jokes, and we'll have the best time together. Pinky promise.

I take your wedding memories very seriously, and I always want to make sure that we are the best fit for each other. I'm all about connecting with my clients as friends – I've found that's where the real magic happens. I want you to text me pictures of your dress, ask me whatever questions that pop up, and talk about how freaking excited you are to be marrying your best friend. I'm here for it all + want to make a genuine connection to you both beyond just being a vendor. This way, when your wedding rolls around, I'm coming in like your friend Shan with the cam, and not some random stranger all up in your face. I'm going to invest my heart and soul into your wedding and be your biggest hype woman on the day. 

I'm going to lead you through everything – I'll help you with crafting a timeline, finding vendors, outfits for your engagement session, and anything else under the sun. I've done a ton of weddings over the last five years, so if you have any questions, I probably have the answer.

What's it like to work together?

"Shannon is literal sunshine. She always made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and we’ve become more than just clients that she photographs. I was worried because I’m not a model, but she definitely works with you and guides you so that you have photos that make you look like models. I was surprised that she captured so many moments that I wasn’t able to soak in or be present for. The photos really speak for themselves and we highly recommend sharing your moments with Shannon because she can see the love in you and express it in photos that will last forever."

Love Notes From Our Clients



Kris + Kelsey

"Shannon is nothing short of incredible - from day one, we knew we were in good hands. Her images are gorgeous and speak for themselves, but what really did it for us was how she handled herself throughout the entire process. She was timely with communication and provided thoughtful touches along the way that were above and beyond. Just as importantly, the images we received blew us away. If you’re on the fence about whether to do day after pics, JUST DO IT. You will 100% not regret it."

"Wow just wow! I am wearing a permanent smile in all the photos just as I am now looking back on them, it was such a fun, loving and memorable time for me and my partner. Shannon is so passionate about photography, it SHINES out through her, we literally chased the sunset together that evening in search of the perfect photo opportunity. No wonder they call her Sunshine Shannon. Guys book her up fast you will not regret it, but let me pencil in our wedding date first. Thank you Shannon, so glad we found you, our photographer for life! "
