Calgary, Alberta, Family Lifestyle and Wedding Photographer

 

For you, it’s not about the perfect hair or an unwrinkled outfit.

It’s how their hand fits into yours.

It’s the silly things that make you all laugh when you are together.

It’s what makes your family ‘YOU’ at this point in time. And for you, it is an important thing to remember, so that years from now, you can look back and be reminded of these precious moments, taking you back to this feeling and the connection you share.

Whether it’s a goofy look, a quiet moment of togetherness, or the joyous chaos of everyday, I am here to preserve the essence of your family. These are the moments you’ll look back on and cherish for years to come.

Worried about photos? Don’t be! With 15 years of experience as an elementary school teacher, I bring a unique perspective to photography sessions. I have games to play that bring out genuine smiles, patience and love from the kindergarten teaching days, and most importantly, I capture the beauty in what is.

 

 

Capturing joy, preserving your unique connections to forever remember.

“Shannon has been photographing our family for years! She is not only a kind and caring person, but also such a wonderful photographer to work with! Just like in past years, we are so in love with all of our images and couldn’t have asked for a better family experience! Shannon is always so easy, fun, relaxed and patient with our young boys and naturally captures our family together without making it feel awkward.  She is always so efficient and organized which makes the shoot go by very smoothly – a bonus with keeping our young kids engaged.  Year after year we look forward to hiring Shannon to capture our family.  We would 100% recommend Shannon to anyone considering family photos she is the best!”

Heskes Family

Shannon has been taking our family photos for more than 8 years! She has done our new born shoots, small family photos, extended family shoots and business shoots! They always are more than perfect. She’s fun and kind and delivers amazing photos every time. Even if you have a tantrum throwing, cold and crying 18 month old… she throws on a penguin costume and gets a smile and a great photo. You will not meet a more genuine person and will never regret hiring her (and guaranteed making a new friend because… you will want to be friends with her!).

Shannon has captured my family in a way I will cherish forever! She is a skilled, creative and talented photographer but most importantly, she has the ability to make my family feel comfortable – capturing our true personalities.
Shanna Leavitt

Shannon has done so many sessions for us from engagement to newborn sessions and many in between she is fantastic.
She does absolutely everything she can to get an amazing variety of photos. She can even capture photos of a wild toddler, that’s pretty amazing. She has a way of capturing the best candid photos and makes you feel so comfortable.
Shannon makes it so hard to pick photos to print because they are all incredible. There is no one else I would ever trust to capture these moments in my life.
