Hello!

My name is Shannon and I like to have fun.
I like having fun as much as I love people.
And I love people as much as I love taking pictures.
This is the ultimate job!

 I serve the Gainesville and Tampa Bay areas and am willing to travel.  I work free-lance for serveral publications including The Florida Engineer, Florida, and UF Today. I'm well versed in photographing different subject matter; from events, to products, to portraits.  However, the events closest to my heart are weddings. I use natural light, and a ridiculous sense of humor to capture your special moments in a creative way. My goal is to tell your story in a way that has an emotional and physical presence. I want to make photographs that go beyond "looking" like you. I want them to FEEL like you.

So each wedding session is made-to-order. I'll flex my photographic and editing styles to match your preference. After alI, it's your wedding, and should be custom designed to fit what you need! I am not a cookie cutter, I am a chameleon.

In the most general sense I feel that photographs are keys to memories. They should have emotional staying power and reflect who you are inside. I promise to take time to get to know you and your family, to build up a relationship so the most natural and genuine feelings shine through. I promise to be friendly and fun to work with. I promise to be down to earth and remain as inobtrusive as possible. Most importantly, I promise to be professional; on time, courteous, affordable, efficient and deliver my product quickly.

Please feel free to email me with questions and requests. I look forward to embarking on an adventure with you, and am so very pleased to meet you.

Sincerely,
Shannon Kalahar
