“DON’T STRIVE TO BE EXTRAORDINARY, STRIVE TO BE FAITHFUL.”

Hi! I’m Shan!
I am a wife, mother to three and photographer!

I love my husband more than I can tell you. He is my better half and pushes me to be a better person every day. My kids are my world. I never knew how deep you could love until I became a mother; the best gift of my life. If you follow my Blog or Instagram you will be bombarded with photos of them, so beware.

I love to run. I love being outside. Most days you will find me and my crew sneaking down the beach to soak up the sun and the sand after finishing school.
I love laughing, like I really, really love laughing and I usually laugh at all the wrong.

I started taking photos professionally a little over six years ago when my husband gave me a digital camera as a wedding gift to replace my old film camera from college. Since then I don’t think a day has passed that I haven’t taken a photo. My camera has become a part of me. I see life in pictures and I think photos are some of the best gifts we can be given.

A few years ago a friend of mine shared that her dad made the quote above their theme quote. I just fell in love with it! Since reading it, I have aimed to model my life and business by it.

I see my job as such a privilege that I get to capture special moments in your life through film.

I so love and enjoy each and every one of my clients and walk away every year with a new handful of friends! Who can say that about their job!?
