My therapist told me today that the girl who showed up to her office today is completely different than the girl who walked in 2 years ago.
24 year old Shawnae didn’t think she was deserving of everything that today- I now have. The biggest contribution? Love.

I feel so incredibly lucky. I get to regularly participate in the unification of life. Merging families into one big conglomerate.
How lucky are we to experience what it’s like to bring your village together?

Love to me has always seemed unfathomable. It has no bounds. It is an endless well that continues to fill up even when you think it’s bound to go dry any moment now.

But that’s the thing. I’ve learned over these past 10 years photographing weddings that we are all deserving of love, you just have to find your village. You’ll have so many friends and loves in your lifetime, family, chosen family, you will be drowning in love if you embrace it.

How lucky are we to experience so many multiple forms of love in our lifetime?

One of my favorite places in Cuyahoga Valley to work at is the wonderful Hines Hill Campus.
It’s a beautiful place to host all your favorite people.

What makes Hines Hill Campus so beautiful is its versatility.

It acts as a blank canvas, letting you curate an atmosphere that reflects your personal vision without feeling restrictive.

Beyond its natural beauty, hosting your wedding here carries a deeper purpose.

The property originally served as a private retreat in the early 1900s before joining the national park landscape. Today, booking your celebration directly supports the Conservancy for Cuyahoga Valley National Park, helping fund local environmental stewardship and educational programs.
Which is a huge plus in my book.

Ready to bring your vision to life at Hines Hill?

I’m always honored to return to this special corner of the park. Reach out today to check availability for your date.

When your wedding day finally arrives, you crave presence.
You don’t want a performance, or your day to be focused around creating content.

It’s not a cumulation of trends, or starting a new one.
Your wedding is representative of everything that brings you together, people, music, food, everything is yours.

Your gallery should absolutely follow that guideline as well.
Photos can feel daunting, but they don’t have to be.

If you’re nervous about photos, here’s what I need you to know:

I’M WARM,
I’M A GOOD LISTENER,
AND I’M GOING TO TREAT YOU LIKE REAL PEOPLE.

The best photos happen when you feel comfortable, and comfort starts with feeling understood.
The more I know about you, the more your gallery lives and breathes as a part of yourselves.

What could be better than that?

Recording this wedding on a camcorder was one of the best decisions I could have ever made.

Would you book this for your wedding?

Motherhood is far more than a title. You are a foundational pillar in your family dynamic. You are the planner, the organizer, the keeper of memories.
Every stage brings its own magic worth preserving:

* Maternity: Honoring the incredible beginning of your journey and the quiet anticipation before your world changes forever.

* Newborn: Documenting those hazy, miraculous early days filled with tiny toes, soft snuggles, and gentle rhythms.

* Mommy & Me: Focusing directly on the unique, unbreakable bond between you and your little ones in an intimate setting.

* Milestones: Celebrating sitting up, taking first steps, lost teeth, and all the sweet growth in between.

* Full Family Sessions: Gathering everyone together to capture how your collective story feels right now—messy, tender, and real.

Whether you’re stepping into the beautiful unknown of pregnancy or navigating the bustling days of raising toddlers, your current season deserves to be remembered with honesty and grace.

The motherhood photographer for all seasons of life.

I never thought I would love motherhood and family photography as much as I do.
I’ve always had a place for it in my heart, but it only grows more and more special with each session.

I don’t want the typical couples.

I want the couples that surround themselves with warmth and love.

I want the couples who create a wedding that feels like themselves embodied, not just another event.

I want couples who think they’re awkward in front of the camera, but when they don’t know it’s there, they laugh with each other and light up.

I’ve never claimed to be the photographer for everyone.
I’m very go with the flow. I allow breathing room. Sometimes I say f**k the timeline.

I notice. I perceive. I listen.

Not once should you feel like your day is all photos and slapping a smile on and saying ā€œcheese!ā€ for hours.
You should be forgetting that I’m even there.

You should be enveloped in hugs, and kisses. Writing vows that bring tears to your eyes, and makes your friends ugly cry.
You shouldn’t worry about missing a photo of someone important, or wishing you could’ve gotten one with your grandmother before she left for the night.

I am the photographer for the couples who want to breathe, and exist in a day that was built for them.
A day you wrote, and I’m just the visual artist bringing it all to life.

I’m the photographer for the couples that want real over perfection.
The one who photographs memories, not just checking boxes on a shot list.

Things are changing.

I’m changing.
This summer, I will no longer be a nanny. Like ever. It’s the end of an era.
Hardest decision I’ve ever had to make, so that I can show up for you as my very best self.

In getting ready for change…
I redid my entire website.
I’ve wanted to pull my hair out a few times because it’s not ā€œperfectā€
But how can I preach authenticity and realness if I can’t embody that myself?

There’s a bittersweet feeling about my business growing.
This has always been so much more than a job.
I’m literally living the dream. I get to make art for some of the most wonderful people on the planet. I could cry.

If you’ve made it this far into my ramblings, then I have a prize for you.
