...Let US tell your story
If you’re here, chances are you believe moments are worth holding onto.
I’m a documentary wedding, maternity, and family photographer based in Austin, Texas and Boston, Massachusetts, and I’m here for the real stuff—the unposed, unscripted moments that make your story yours. I photograph this way because memories fade, and sometimes photographs are all we have left to return to them.

If you’re in search for your photographer. STOP HERE. Shannon’s work I am so grateful for; I wish I found her sooner. Her work represents so much more than just a photo. The right photo captures the emotional weight of feeling. And her works does just that! She captures true love, beauty, and energy of your special moment. It truly brings me back. She gets “the shot” and so much more. I showed her a couple of styles I liked and really brought them to life. True artist and memory saver!

Shannon made our session simple and effortless. She was able to capture our family perfectly, despite having three wiggly children! She was professional and accommodating. We love the way she edits and we will treasure these photos forever. Book the girl!
