Shanny is an absolute angel to work with; she effortlessly puts you at ease in front of the camera, offers direction to craft engaging shots that truly highlight your best features, and exudes a remarkable sense of ease and confidence. If you’re considering Shanny for your photography needs, look no further; she’s simply unparalleled. Plus, she collaborates with you to bring your vision to life, which is something I truly appreciated.

Shan - I am beyond grateful I found you to bring our vision and brand alive. You made the whole experience an absolute perfect vibe. I couldn’t imagine doing it without you moving forward!!

You listened wholeheartedly, offered amazing insight and then captured my vision above and beyond what I ever imagined. You truly know how to capture those genuine rare moments.

I cannot wait for our next shoot!

I found it so easy working with Shannon. She delivered on my vision and there was nothing she wouldn’t do to get the ideal shot! I love the fact that she really chases the beauty of light within an image, without losing what I was looking for in the photo. Her turn around time for my photos was quick as well. I was able to refresh my entire website with the images she took and it now has a completely different feel. I love it! I couldn’t recommend her highly enough.

Shanny from @lightofmine.love was a Pilates client of mine a little while before I found out she was a photographer. After shooting with her last year before going OS, I knew I wouldn’t be able to shoot with anyone else ever again. The energy she brings to a shoot is like nothing I’ve ever experienced, she makes you feel comfortable and confident and like you’re the coolest thing she’s ever photographed. I also just adore her mood boarding prep work and this time around we collaborated for a long time beforehand to bring a story of the everyday to life.

I’m SO happy I found Shannon. Her creative eye has BLOWN me away and the entire experience from the moment I connected with her until now was incredible. She made it so easy for me to book in and just show up and I just KNEW that she had everything in control and that the brief was gonna be nailed!

She has such an incredible eye and I felt so comfortable during the shoot and the photos are INCREDIBLE!!! 

I’ve worked with a lot of photographers and none of them nailed the brief as well and made the day as fun as she did. It was like hanging out with my bestie and biggest hype girl all at the same time. I’ll be booking in another SOON and I can’t recommend her highly enough.

“We came across Shannon through some friends and decided to get some family photos done with our 5mo and I’m so glad we did. She’s got an amazing eye for beautiful natural shots. I love how the photos are of us at home just doing things we’d normally do. We didn’t need to get too dressed up or even go crazy tidying the house. She made the everyday of our lives look beautiful. One of my favourite photos shows the humidifier on our bedroom floor - it will always remind me of those long but special nights cuddling a sick bubba and making sure he was ok. She also went at our pace, capturing feeds and nappy changes along the way and just made us feel so comfortable! Anyone thinking of hiring Shannon should definitely do it.”

“If you are thinking about having Shanny capture your family, we couldn't recommend her enough! Please do!

Shanny captured our little family beautifully but also was lovely to work with. Nothing felt forced, quite the opposite, we all had a fun day.

Good luck, you are in great hands!”

Working with Shanny doesn’t even feel like work. It feels like effortlessness, like ease, like she is simply a fly on the wall seeing the monotony of our daily life through her exceptional eye and beautiful creative lense.

I am so grateful to have these images captured as a time stamp to look back on for years to come. I can’t wait to shoot with Shanny again!

Thank you so much Shanny! You made me feel so incredibly comfortable, excited and empowered. As someone who gets nervous or awkward taking photos - you made the whole process so enjoyable. You honestly made me feel like a goddess. You have such a beautiful eye for detail and capture the vision and shot perfectly. I felt so safe and the pictures showed it. I am so so so happy with how they turned out!! You captured everything so beautifully. Absolutely nailed the brief!! Better than I could have ever imagined. I was buzzing right after and felt like I could take on the world. Can’t wait for our next one! Thank you thank you thank you!!

Shanny captured some really special family photos for us. She put us at ease from the outset with her warm, calming and nurturing personality. Shanny was incredibly patient with our two little ones, creating a safe space for us all to be “just us”. I am in love with our photos, I can’t wait to make this a yearly thing as our children grow.

— Kaitlin

The experience of having a photoshoot with Shannon was an absolute gift. In the past I had always felt uncomfortable, hated the process and a lot of stuff would surface. Not this time! I felt so safe, seen and held during this whole experience. Shannon saw the vision - she knew what I was desiring to create more than I did so I got to relax and have fun. The photos are incredible, I love and adore them and often get so many people ask who took them. You have such a beautiful gift Shannon and I’m already so excited for my next shoot.

— Angela Louise

We always knew Shan would give us beautiful family pictures but she went above and beyond our expectations. You’re amazing! We will be back for more xx

“We absolutely love our family photos! We were so nervous that we wouldn’t feel natural in front of the camera but Shannon’s calm and relaxed personality made us feel so at ease. We now have the most beautiful shots of our family together in our home. We would 100% recommend Shanny to anyone!”
