"Shannon is the absolute best! She did both our engagement and wedding photos, and they all turned out stunning! She is so friendly, responsive, and great to work with. She helped my husband and I feel comfortable throughout both days and was great at giving direction where needed!
Her work turned out so beautiful and I could not be more thankful for her!
We hope to continue supporting and working with her for a long time"

Shannon was such a joy to work with, she was so patient with my youngest who was less than pleased to have a stranger taking her picture. She made my kids feel comfortable and didn’t rush, I left feeling like we got some great photos. She was quick to get us the final product and they were perfection!

Shannon photographed our wedding in February 2020. We had a great experience working with her! She was organized, calm, easy to work with, and open to our ideas. She made the day stress free and flow smoothly. Our photographs are beautiful and our experience was wonderful. I would recommend her to anyone. Thanks Shannon!

I have nothing but amazing things to say about my experience with Shannon! She captured every moment so beautifully and authentically on my wedding day (+ engagement shoot), and I couldn’t have been more happy with how stunning our photos came out. One of the most important things to look for when choosing a photographer is their ability to make you and your significant other feel at ease, and Shannon did exactly that! Thank you, Shannon, for being so kind and fun while working your magic! Truly a one of a kind photographer.
