Testimonials

Shane brings to his photography work his impressive social graces, gentle spirit, artistic flare, big heart and sharp mind. You can't go wrong with Shane.

— Lisa Cohn, award-winning author and writer

After meeting with numerous local professional photographers, my wife and I chose to work with Shane for our first family portraits. Shane really listened to what we wanted, and assured the photographs captured who we are, while managing to incorporate his expertise as well. This was very much appreciated. Shane didn't just listen, but rather "heard" what we really wanted (even when we weren't very clear at times). We were impressed with how patient he was with our session as our 10mo son was fussy at times. Bottom line, if you are looking for professionalism while assuring "you" are captured, work with Shane. We couldn't be happier.
