First let me say that I have worked with other photographers before, but I have not worked with any photographer that is as professional, honest and attentive to the needs of the customer. Shannon photographed my wedding in Honolulu on February 17, 2012 and I would recommend her for weddings (small or large) or any event. I will share a few details about our experience which I think reviewers might find helpful.

Responsiveness - Shannon made communication with me a priority (even before we booked her as our photographer). My fiance and I live on the east coast and eventhough we met Shannon for the first time on our wedding day, she was always very responsive to emails, phone calls and messages. I never waited more than a day to get a response to questions or feedback. She confirmed payments via email, drafted a contract based on discussions and was dedicated to ensure your requests had been met.

Professionalism - Shannon's personality is very friendly and upbeat, but that does not impact her professionalism with her customers. Contracts are written and provided in a very timely manner. Each party has a clear understanding of fees, deadlines and expectations for photographing the event. I felt very confident being so far away from Shannon and communicating via phone and online that Shannon would honor the agreement for our date and time.

Shannon arrived ontime and brought several props for pictures to make it fun. She encouraged us to be free and let our personalities show! Based on her knowledge and passion for what she does, Shannon made us feel comfortable and we absolutely enjoyed our session! We created memories of our wedding during the photography session beyond what was captured on camera :).

Quality - The pictures are high resoultion pictures that are bright and clear. We are very pleased with the final product. We recieved our photos in less than 30 days following our event. The sample photos on her website are nice, but cannot fully speak to the quality of her work, so we hope that this review helps to put it all in perspective.

Value - The value of the product was excellent as Shannon's package fit our needs perfectly. The selection of packages available provide options so you don't pay for more than you need. Shannon was flexible in assisting you in selecting an appropriate package based on your needs. We believe that the number of photos we received were worth the price we paid for the package.

Overall, I would recommend Shannon as your wedding photographer in Hawaii or elsewhere. I feel that Shannon went out of her way to convey to her customers that she values thier business from the moment of first contact. I called Shannon to inquire about services and then called a couple of other photographers. It was Shannon's professionalism and respect for your future business that made me call back. She was not pushy or secretive in sharing ideas or feedback and gave me informaiton necessary to proceed in selecting the appropriate photographer for my weddimg. Being an analytical person, I appreciated her openness to answering questions before she was selected as our photographer.
