Elopements & Intimate Weddings

When couples choose to elope or have a small wedding with only their closest friends and family, it's a beautiful thing. I believe that small weddings and elopements deserve to be documented just the same as big wedding days with 200 guests. Whether it's 3 hours or 8 or even all day, your wedding day story deserves to be told.  

It's essential that you get wedding photos that go beyond the typical cheesy smiles and traditional poses. To make that happen, you need a photographer who can:

Get clean, vibrant photos that feel natural yet elevated.

Capture all of the moments, people, and details that are most important to you.

Make engaging with the camera (and photographer) an enjoyable experience.

I pride myself on being able to do all of those well.


You deserve authentic moments of joy that
go beyond the standard wedding photos. 

ENJOY YOUR DAY THE WAY YOU’RE MEANT TO WHILE I CAPTURE THE AUTHENTICITY OF THAT FEELING. 

If you've inquired with me, you're likely looking for someone you can trust to capture the organic unfolding of your wedding and the beautiful moments that will happen with your families. You don’t want moments to feel forced. And you don’t want to feel uncomfortable around the camera - or your photographer.  

You’re also worried that your images will be overly edited and won’t match your style and expectations- I've included full galleries so you can see more of my work throughout an elopement day.

If you're having an intimate wedding with your family present,  I love capturing both the standard posed family photos as well as the more candid moments in between! In the collections below, I've focused on 3 tiers that center around timing- leaving time for those candid moments to happen. You can always customize any of these to fit your day and vision and I'd be happy to review anything in more details on a call or Zoom.


"Her pictures are real moments between people, and when you look at them, you can feel all of the emotions and love that she is capturing.” 

Whether I’m simply observing or offering guidance, I’ll ensure your day is captured as it naturally happens. 

An Intentional Experience that Exceeds Your Expectations:

Rather than creating trendy photos you’ll later regret, I’ll deliver a timeless collection of photos you can reminisce over for years to come.

By answering your questions, providing information, and tailoring recommendations to meet your needs, you know I’m in your corner at all times.

“Shannon is a photographer that you can trust with the most important
moments of your life without a worry in the world.
And in fact, she made our wedding measurably more amazing just by being there.”

-Julianne

The best photos aren’t created by following a rigid image checklist or need-to-capture details. They’re created when the photographer focuses on what’s happening in the moment.. 

I keep my camera aimed at the beautiful, candid moments that happen throughout your wedding day and the little stories that unfold between you and your loved ones - all while keeping your priorities and needs in mind. By doing so, you’ll actually enjoy looking back at your day because you’ll remember how it felt. 

An Eye for Beauty

Simplified System

If you’re like a lot of my couples, you don’t have a ton of extra time to meet or fill out questionnaires leading up to your wedding. 

As a busy professional, I get it. Which is why my process is intentional and streamlined. You’ll always know what to expect, and I’ll always collect just the information I need - without all the fluff in between. With my system, you’ll have fewer things to think about, schedule, or put on your to-do list.


Experience-Focused

Rather than interrupt your moments, rush you from here to there, and treat your day like my personal photoshoot, I respect your wedding day for what it is - YOURS. 

I encourage you to slow down, stay present, and intentionally take it all in. And when it comes to photos, don’t focus on me - do your thing. I’ll be there to capture the ecstatic laughs and tender tears. The result? Incredible memories of an amazing day.

Knowing photography isn’t enough. I also have an innate understanding of high-end hospitality.

So whether it’s tidying up a space, weighing in on the timeline, or reminding you to take a breath, I show up and care for you, your loved ones, and your vendor team in a way that serves your experience. 

Through this approach, you enjoy a seamless, smooth, and wonderful event and have the incredible photos to remember it by. 

You waited long enough for your wedding. I don’t want to make you wait forever for your wedding photos. You’ll have an opportunity to relive your day in beautiful detail as soon as possible - but not at the risk of poor quality. Download and printing rights are always included.


Caring Presence

QUICK TURNAROUND

- Kristina

“She focused on the people enjoying the reception and dancing, the looks on guests’ faces during speeches, the small details that make the big day, etc. It’s been over a year, and I still cry every time I see them. She captured the magic of the day and for that, I'm eternally grateful to her.”

Hi, I'm Shannon

I BELIEVE THAT A COLLECTION OF QUALITY PHOTOS IS WORTH MORE THAN A FEED FULL OF TRENDY IMAGES.

I want your grandchildren to love your wedding photos as much as you do.
That’s the power of quality
and a timeless, natural aesthetic.

“We loved how Shannon's photography captures the littlest moments and makes everything feel elevated but natural.”
