As an artist and storyteller, my passion is creating imagery that is joyful, romantic, authentic, and beautifully true to you.

With over 13 years in the wedding industry and hundreds of love stories captured, I’ve learned that a seamless wedding day is about more than just stunning photos—it’s about thoughtful planning. Collaborating with you and your planner on the timeline ensures everything flows smoothly, so you can be fully present in the moment.

Beyond being your photographer, I am your advocate and friend. My goal is for you to trust me completely, knowing that I’m here to guide and support you every step of the way.

our photos. She made everyone feel so comfortable and kept all of us on track.
Shanell is incredible and will always be our #1 choice. Hiring Shanell will be your
best decision for any special occasion, wedding or even family photos. Her passion,

kind words

Growing up, my grandmother was the one who captured every moment, the keeper of our family's memories. I loved flipping through the albums she meticulously created, each one neatly arranged on the bookshelf by year, filled with stories told through photographs. That love for preserving memories has stayed with me, shaping my passion for what I do today. It brings me so much joy to capture meaningful moments for couples and families, just as my grandmother did for ours.
