I am Shannon Van Groningen, a California and travel wedding photographer who serves joyful, timeless brides in California and beyond. With its breathtaking coastline, historic charm, and luxury venues, Santa Barbara is a dream destination for couples looking to celebrate their love in a romantic and picturesque setting. As a Santa Barbara wedding photographer, I specialize in bright, timeless, and true-to-color photography, ensuring your wedding day is captured with authenticity and elegance. From golden sunsets along the coast to intimate garden ceremonies and grand estate celebrations, I preserve every heartfelt moment so you can relive your special day for years to come.

Are you planning a wedding at Rosewood Miramar Beach, Belmond El Encanto, San Ysidro Ranch, Dos Pueblos Orchid Farm, Santa Barbara Historical Museum, La Arboleda, Ritz-Carlton Bacara, Ojai Valley Inn & Spa? These venues exude the elegance I capture!
Whether you're planning an intimate elopement or a lavish Santa Barbara wedding, I provide a seamless and stress-free photography experience, allowing you to be fully present while I capture the beauty and joy of your day.

I am here to serve you and the vision you have for your wedding day. Your love story is not cookie cutter- and your photos shouldn't be, either. Your wedding photos are your very first family heirloom, and that honor and responsibility is not lost on me. Capturing your day- from the invitation suite, to your grandparents, to the setting of your beautiful ceremony- in a timeless and lasting way is the heart of my business. 


You are in the right place for colorful, timeless imagery that is authentic, natural, and simply "you".
Your love is bright and sweet, and your wedding images should be, too. Once the vows are said and the cake is cut, you dream of having images that represent your day in all its beauty, and the little moments in between. I provide an experience that stands the test of time.

"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"
