I just received my daughter's photos from her senior photo shoot and they took our breath away. My…read moredaughter had a unique vision, and not only did Shannon honor her vision, she brought it to life in the most beautiful way. From listening intently to her ideas, risking her camera gear to stand in the St. Croix river to get the perfect shots, to supplying a popup tent to accommodate three wardrobe changes, Shannon made the whole process exciting and fun. The photos are incredible - the stars undoubtedly aligned for their collaboration. What resulted was nothing short of magic. Thank you, Shannon, for honoring my daughter's vision, and not just for taking her photos, but for capturing her soul!

The pictures are great- your composition, focus, and lighting are excellent, and you always seem to get the kids in a natural, relaxed pose with a great expression. Kudos! And now for a suggestion- I was wondering if you do school photos. My son goes to (BLANK) and they offered student photos at both the beginning and end of the school year. Both times, the pictures were out of focus, the backgrounds offered were awful, and we had to do one re-take, because his expression was so goofy. Very disappointing, since the school photos are so important and precious to us parents. Maybe you should consider?.... :) Well, thanks again for wonderful memories we can cherish always..."
