Charleston, SC - Available for travel


From behind the lens
My love for photography began growing up in Charlottesville, Virginia, where my mom first introduced me to the camera and taught me to see the beauty in everyday moments. What started as a shared passion quickly grew into something much bigger. As I got older, I found myself wanting to capture everything - the places I traveled, the people I loved, and the memories that felt too special to let slip away.
Over the years, that passion has taken me from photographing landscapes across the country to documenting engagements, families, growing families, and life's biggest milestones. Whether I'm shooting digitally or slowing down with one of my film cameras, I love the art of preserving moments in a way that feels authentic, meaningful, and timeless.
Today, photography combines so many of the things I love: storytelling, adventure, connection, and creativity. Based in Charleston, South Carolina, you'll often find me chasing golden-hour light along the coast, exploring new places with a camera in hand, or helping clients feel comfortable enough to simply be themselves in front of the lens.

The work
Every session includes up to 2 hours depending on selection, a pre-shoot planning call, and a private online gallery of 60+ edited images.

01 - Engagements
From the proposal itself to the celebratory shoot that follows. Ring photos, champagne moments, and the first portraits as a couple newly committed.
Inquire about engagements
02 - Family
Annual sessions for holiday cards, milestone birthdays, reunions, or just because the kids are at a good age right now. I chase real interaction over forced smiles, the photos you actually want to send to grandparents.

03 - Graduation
Individual portraits in cap and gown, group shots with friends who made it through together, and family photos on campus to mark the milestone. Available for high school, college, and graduate ceremonies.

04 - Maternity
Before birth: slow, glowing portraits of the season you're in now. After birth: newborn sessions at home or on location within the first two weeks. Both deserve to be looked at in twenty years.

Kind words
"Shannon shot our engagement on a quiet morning and somehow made us look like ourselves. We keep finding new favorites a year later."
