Shane and his whole team were phenomenal for our wedding! He somehow knew exactly what we wanted captured without having to ask us throughout the day, and the pictures turned out phenomenally. He figured out where all of my detail shot items were when I forgot to show him in the craziness of the morning. You can truly just let Shane do his thing and trust it will all come out great. The same goes for his assistant, who did a great iob!

He left a great impression on our guests and families too — even getting smiles for photos out of our overstimulated 3 year old flower girls, which is no easy task! Shane was also very organized and functioned almost like a 2nd wedding planner, helping us stay on schedule and keeping the vibes relaxed when our planner had to handle other things.

Finally, Shane and Anna went above and beyond on all the little details — such as sending gifts in the mail throughout the stressful planning process!
Thank you Shane for everything, we loved working with you and will cherish our photos forever!

Shane and Anna Long are the DREAM TEAM!! From beginning to end, your experience with them will be none other than EXCELLENT!
I first heard of Shane Long Photography from another photographer referral. When I searched to find Shane Long Photography on Instagram, I was amazed by all the lovely photos that were show cased on his page. In his bio, I saw that he lives half of the year in Florida and the other half the year in Minnesota, and I immediately got chills of excitement as I grew up in Florida and was hoping to have our engagement shoot in my hometown. I quickly reached out to see if Shane was available for our wedding date in Minnesota, and thankfully he was!!
After booking, my (now) husband and I had an opportunity to FaceTime with Shane and share a little bit about our love story and talk about ideas for our engagement shoot coming up in Florida. I also was in communication with Shane’s wife Anna too. Over the past 10 months Anna and I emailed back and forth with each other regarding any questions I had, and she was always super kind and quick to get back to me!
When we finally met with Shane in Florida for our engagement shoot, in February 2022, we had SO MUCH FUN! Since Florida is where I grew up it was important to us to have photos taken where I was from. We also loved finding a location with the classic palm trees in the background! Shane made us feel relaxed and had us laughing almost the whole time! We received three sneak peek photos that evening from our engagement shoot earlier that day and were blown away by how beautiful they were! After only a week and a half a blog post was made of our Florida engagement session on Shane’s website, and we also received our full digital gallery!
About one week before our wedding, we had a brief phone call with Shane to finalize the wedding day timeline and to talk about important moments we wanted captured. On the day of our wedding Shane surprised us by showing up earlier than we expected!! Shane arrived and shot some getting ready photos for both the ladies and the gentlemen. He also found time to do some detailed shots of our wedding invitations, my bridal jewelry, and florals. Shane followed us to the church for the ceremony and was ready to go as soon as we arrived. He was wonderful about being respectful during the celebration of our Catholic wedding Mass and afterwards had all the names ready to go for family group photos. Although we had a tight schedule, Shane was able to squeeze in time for my husband and I to go to the exact spot where he asked me to marry him, right on the Mississippi River! Next, we went back to our reception venue for more photos with our wedding party in a nearby park. Shane was super great about making sure everyone was having fun and we all had big smiles on our faces! During cocktail hour, Shane again surprised us with a slide show of photos from our wedding day that were taken earlier in the day!! SO AMAZING!! We had so many guests compliment Shane and say how incredible he was, which we totally agreed with! After dinner, Shane pulled my husband and me away for some sunset photos, and this session was probably one of my favorites of the day! The golden hour was perfect, and it was a great way for the two of us, as husband and wife, to step away and enjoy a private moment alone.
A couple days after our wedding, Shane posted a few sneak peek photos on his Facebook and Instagram pages! We were again surprised and amazed at how beautifully Shane captured our day! And exactly one week from when we got married, Anna shared a blog post about our wedding day and sent us our full wedding gallery! We were truly amazed at how quickly they were able to deliver the finished product! We loved every one of those photos and we will cherish them for a lifetime!!
We cannot say enough fanatic things about Shane and Anna! If I could give them a hundred starts, I would! They are so talented and they are such kind and caring people! I highly recommend them for your wedding day! It will be one of the BEST decisions you make for your special day!

Shane and Anna are amazing to work with and such a professional, skilled team of artists. It was important to me to have beautiful lighting and colors and to capture the emotion of our Wedding day in a natural way for us to remember it forever. They over delivered and I can’t recommend them highly enough. Beyond photography, they are an awesome couple and so kind and helpful through the whole process of wedding planning and finding vendors. If on a budget (like we were), consider spending more on photography and less on another area (food, florals, decor, venue...) the beautiful photos will carry memories for so much longer than many of the other things you can spend on. Well worth the investment.
