Not your average photographer!

Shannon went above and beyond for our wedding. She was prepared at every moment — from umbrellas when it rained to wrangling our shot list to capturing details even we didn't notice. She was on top of all of it, and she made us and our guests feel incredibly comfortable so posed and candids alike all looked great.

Highly Recommend

Shannon was phenomenal. She was recommended by a colleague, whose wedding I attended. She was very responsive and so helpful throughout the pandemic. She kept me updated on all the ever-changing mandates and was very flexible when we had to change the dates several times. We're not picture posing people and Shannon coached us through it and wrangled our bridal party at each location. The best thing about Shannon are the positive vibes that emanate from her. Highly recommend!

AMAZING Photographer and Human!

Shannon is the absolute best there is! Our wedding photos are absolutely stunning and works of art! She made our day run so smoothly with her kindness, talent, and creativity! She helped my husband and I feel so comfortable and captured us being us. Shannon was able to capture moments without us even realizing she was there! My husband no longer hates how he looks in photos and we no longer feel awkward in them! What's also super impressive is that Shannon was able to capture everything we asked for and more. She even captured gorgeous family photos with our 8 nieces and nephews varying in age from 3-11, which was super important to us! Shannon truly took the time to get to know us and the important people in our lives. She was organized, prompt, kind, reassuring, full of energy, attentive, trustworthy, and detail oriented. Even our friends and family have commented on how impressive she was! Contact Shannon! You will be in love with your photos just like we are!

BEST Wedding photographer!!

We hired Shannon after she photographed my sister in law's wedding. We didn't even have to see the finished product before deciding to go with Shannon because we were so impressed with how she handled the day of and she just has such great energy that I knew I wanted her with me on my wedding day. But not to mention, seeing the photos just confirmed our decision! She did NOT disappoint on our special day and I'm still gushing over our photos months later! She made sure to get all of the shots we wanted and I just can't say enough great things about her!

Awesome experience and extremely pleased couple

My wedding was on Saturday, June 12, 2021, and Shannon Ahlstrand was our photographer.  She was absolutely phenomenal!!! My guest raved about how professional and on point she was, which I had no doubt she would be because she made me very comfortable from our first conversation.  She listened to my needs, answered all of my questions,  and was on time.  Most importantly she captured every aspect of our wedding and our pictures are stunning!!!  The price point was very good, and the entire experience was excellent.   I  was a bride that pretty much planned my wedding from beginning to end, so it was important for me to build a good team of people to meet our needs, and I hit a home run with landing Shannon.   So if you're looking for a truly professional photographer that is excellent at what she does, I highly recommend Shannon.

Hire Shannon NOW!

Shannon is beyond amazing. We had instant chemistry with her when we met her at a bridal fair in Crocker Park. She was awesome all day long -warm, smiling, but providing strong direction for the photos. She shows up dressed like a photography ninja and disappears seamlessly into your wedding, coming out with so many beautiful photos. Talking with her ahead of the wedding, she was always warm and responsive. She tailors the experience to your needs and ends up a member of your family by the end. We have had so many people ask us about her since the wedding.

Amazing, professional, exceptional!

From the first time that I spoke with Shannon I knew that she would be the one to capture our special day with photo memories! Shannon is amazing, in the middle of a pandemic she spent lots of time and took several calls emails and texts from me patiently worked with us to plan our wedding timeline for photos for our wedding day. She brainstormed ideas and helped me to stay calm for the big day as she assured me everything would go great.... and it did! Shannon was very professional showing up on time and worked non stop from beginning to end and was flexible with any changes we made to photo location or photo requests. We just watched our photo video compilation Shannon sent us and I could not be happier!! The photos are amazing perfectly capturing or special day. I highly recommend Shannon as she is not only a talented photographer but a sincerely sweet person.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
