Shannon was everything I could have hoped for in a photographer. She got to my house at about 3:30pm on my wedding day and stayed until after midnight. She was so friendly and helpful throughout the whole day and managed to make everyone feel entirely at ease. Not only was she an amazing photographer but she was incredibly helpful in the entire process and never hesitated to step in when an extra set of hands was needed. She got all the types of pictures I was interested in and was so quick about it. Following the ceremony we had a gap for pictures before the reception, and she made sure that the pictures went as quickly as possible so we could get back to our guests. However, none of the pictures we wanted were spared for this efficiency - she listened and every shot I wanted was taken. Further, when I realized that I wanted additional posed shots with just my husband and I she managed to find a calm moment in all the wedding craze to pull us outside and capture the images we wanted. Also, when the groomsmen were getting a little... boyish, she was very quick to casually redirect their attention back to the pictures. Just overall it was a phenomenal experience and I would recommend her to anyone looking for an amazingly friendly and talented photographer. I speak on behalf of not only myself, but my entirely family and wedding party - we all loved her!! I feel lucky to have found her!

Shannon & Steve put together the most fantastic set of wedding photos & we really couldn't have asked for a better pair of photographers! They are such a great team and really put forth an outstanding effort to capture every special moment possible. We highly recommend them for any portrait session, wedding, or event!

Shannon was very easy to work with and her photography skills are amazing. We have loved every minute and have the best pictures to remember forever. I remember looking at one of my friends engagement pictures and thinking to myself we are so lucky we have Shannon and not her photographer. Thank you Shannon for everything and for helping us to remember this special event!

I found Shannon through a friend because I absolutely loved all of her wedding pictures. Shannon and I had our first meeting and she was so full of energy and excitement about mine and my fiance's story that we knew instantly that we wanted to book her. She was extremely patient and accommodating when we changed our date and venue. Her attention to details and artistic photography style fit us perfectly. She sent us our engagement proofs and our wedding proofs in record time and they are all exquisite!!!! We love Shannon and her team!! They are truly pros!

Shannon was phenomenal to work with, she gets so excited about taking great photographs that it really helps you relax and be yourself. The artistic value of her photos is outstanding and she really does help tell your day, and also works with your personality. She was probably my favorite vendor that we hired.

Shannon photographed our engagement pictures, wedding, and this weekend, will photograph our day after shoot. technically, it's a couple of weeks later since we were on our honeymoon. :) We can't say enough about Shannon. first of all, her pictures are awesome! I love her creativity and willingness to get the absolute best shots. She has the best personality and is truly one of the nicest people I know. On the day of the wedding, her and Steve worked so incredibly hard and for me, shannon was the person I looked to the most because she kept me calm without even trying. :) She also had another photographer, Eric, that day. He was fantastic too! I would definitely recommend to anyone who would ask...just look at her work - totally speaks for itself!

I am currently looking at the photos Shannon took at my wedding. She was there from the hair to the last dance of the night. She has just made me cry, laugh, cry and smile so big again. Her photography has let me relive one of the happiest days of my life. She is an amazing photographer, and her partner Steve is also very talented. Together they make a great duo.
Shannon was the first photographer I met with, the second vendor I booked. Photography was very important to me. I knew right after I met her that she was awesome and that she was the person to capture the moments at my wedding. She is an astounding photographer and is getting better with every wedding she takes. (I've been stalking her blog. :) She also has a great personality and it has been wonderful getting to know her. I loved working with her and am so thrilled to have the pictures back from my wedding.

No words can explain how lucky I feel to have had Shannon photograph my wedding day. She is so creative and talented. She captured moments that I had completely forgotten about. She is not only an amazing photographer, but a very, very good person. She has such a huge heart!

Shannon was great. She was so much fun to work with during both our e-pics and on the day of the wedding. Her assistant had a great time with the guys, also.

When we came back from the honeymoon, I had an email waiting to let us know that our pictures were up. They are amazing! I can't wait to put together albums!

I just received my pictures last week and I must say they are extraordinary. They are better than what I imagined. She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and she was so patient with us. She captured every special moment on our special day. She was worth more than what she charged. I recommend Photography by Shannon for your wedding day photos.

We initially were going to use the resort's photographers. However, I saw a few photos of other weddings the group had done (not on their website) and was less than impressed. The pictures for me were a lasting memory and therefore something worth investing in. We got the deal of a lifetime. I seriously cannot rave enough about Shannon. Our first experience with her was our Engagement Photos. She and her assistant, Steve, were fun to work with and full of innovative and fun suggestions. I think the pictures turned out great! But, I still wanted to make sure the wedding ones were magnificent.

Shannon also did my B-pics and honestly, that was my true test. I loved how they turned out. I felt very good about myself (which I think many of us will admit is challenging when we are looking at ourself in underwear!!) but they also looked like me and not a photoshopped version of me.

I came to love Shannon and Steve during the wedding weekend. They photographed the wedding rehearsal, the rehearsal dinner, preparation pictures, the ceremony, reception, Trash the Dress, and Brunch. The poor people didn't take a break! They were also around, but blended with the group and actually a lot of my guests commented on how sweet, yet unobtrusive they were. Now, I've only seen a few pics so far, but so far they are FANTASTIC! I am so thrilled to pieces.

To Atlanta brides, if you can get Shannon, do it. For DW brides, if you can bring your own photographer, I highly recommend it- and I also recommend Shannon.

If you are still looking for a wedding photographer, look no more! Shannon is an amazing photographer and person. She is responsive, professional, and really wants to capture your wedding day in photographs for you to cherish forever. She blew our expectations out of the water and we loved each image that she took. Shannon was creative with the shots and was open to recommendations from our "must take" list. LOVED HER!

My mom contacted Mrs Johnson and within a few hours received a response with a quote and everything. Her prices are so reasonable and her quality of work is worth every cent. She has already contacted me directly to schedule my engagement photo session.

Her work gets better and better with every wedding she does, and she does a lot each year! She?s built quite a great reputation around Atlanta for the quality of her work, her positive attitude and the value she brings to the table. Shannon is a good photographer and has a fresh and creative eye. My bridal party and family loved her and her ability to capture the moments.

Shannon takes amazing, artistic pictures! We love every image we have from her--the only complaint is that she didn't take more (we ran out of time with the formals for other reasons). A free engagement session is included with all of her packages--which are already very reasonably priced. Shannon is young and fun, we had a great time with her and she put everyone at ease. She is a must-have!

She's great- full of personality, very bubbly (but not obnoxiously so!), has an amazing eye for photography, and really, really loves what she does. On our wedding day, she took some amazing pictures and made us feel so comfortable. She also had a great time using the environment from our wedding (we got married on a farm), taking some of the fun pictures of us in front of the tractor, with my dad holding a shotgun (it's hilarious!) or when the bounce house we rented for the kids blew over. She's amazing!
