Nelli & Benjamin,
Thank you both for taking the time to talk tonight- it was a pleasure to meet you and hear more about your plans for your wedding weekend!
Based on everything we discussed and particularly because of the first look and ceremony at the church, I’m recommending 10 hours of coverage to best support your timeline and not be rushed. Once you have a coordinator on board, I can also work closely with them to build a detailed timeline that keeps everything flowing naturally while making space for the moments that matter most.
I completely understand your desire for discretion, and I included options for both a privacy clause and a full NDA in your proposal so you can choose what feels right.
Below are 3 collection options. If one of these feels close but you'd like to add or remove anything, let's talk and make it the perfect fit. You can also add anything at any time. If plans evolve and you'd like more coverage, adding hours is no problem and possible until the moment we leave your reception.
The top collection includes the full NDA buyout- I'll explain more about what that entails in my email. The other two collections include 10 hours along with the privacy clause.
The album information will be linked in the email as well should you wish to have your photographs in print. I'm always happy to have a conversation around how to best preserve the images and love creating beautiful quality custom albums.
Please take a look and let me know if there is anything I can answer or adjust.
ENJOY YOUR DAY THE WAY YOU’RE MEANT TO WHILE I CAPTURE THE AUTHENTICITY OF THAT FEELING.
"Her pictures are real moments between people, and when you look at them, you can feel all of the emotions and love that she is capturing.”

“Shannon is a photographer that you can trust with the most important
moments of your life without a worry in the world.
And in fact, she made our wedding measurably more amazing just by being there.”
-Julianne
The best photos aren’t created by following a rigid image checklist or need-to-capture details. They’re created when the photographer focuses on what’s happening in the moment..
I keep my camera aimed at the beautiful, candid moments that happen throughout your wedding day and the little stories that unfold between you and your loved ones - all while keeping your priorities and needs in mind. By doing so, you’ll actually enjoy looking back at your day because you’ll remember how it felt.
If you’re like a lot of my couples, you don’t have a ton of extra time to meet or fill out questionnaires leading up to your wedding.
As a busy professional, I get it. Which is why my process is intentional and streamlined. You’ll always know what to expect, and I’ll always collect just the information I need - without all the fluff in between. With my system, you’ll have fewer things to think about, schedule, or put on your to-do list.
Rather than interrupt your moments, rush you from here to there, and treat your day like my personal photoshoot, I respect your wedding day for what it is - YOURS.
I encourage you to slow down, stay present, and intentionally take it all in. And when it comes to photos, don’t focus on me - do your thing. I’ll be there to capture the ecstatic laughs and tender tears. The result? Incredible memories of an amazing day.
Knowing photography isn’t enough. I also have an innate understanding of high-end hospitality.
So whether it’s tidying up a space, weighing in on the timeline, or reminding you to take a breath, I show up and care for you, your loved ones, and your vendor team in a way that serves your experience.
Through this approach, you enjoy a seamless, smooth, and wonderful event and have the incredible photos to remember it by.
You waited long enough for your wedding. I don’t want to make you wait forever for your wedding photos. You’ll have an opportunity to relive your day in beautiful detail as soon as possible - but not at the risk of poor quality. Download and printing rights are always included.
“She focused on the people enjoying the reception and dancing, the looks on guests’ faces during speeches, the small details that make the big day, etc. It’s been over a year, and I still cry every time I see them.
She captured
the magic of the day
and for that, I'm eternally grateful to her.”
I want your future generations to love your wedding photos as much as you do.
That’s the power of quality and a timeless, natural aesthetic.
This is one of my favorite weddings of the last few years- I'm including it to share some "candid posing" as well as the many true candids from throughout the day. There's also some great venue photos we included to highlight not only the people and details, but beauty of the venue and landscape itself! Something I'd be sure to do for you as well so that you also have photos of the stunning landscape visible from Tehama.
Kelly & Nick also had a welcome party.
I've included full galleries so you can see more of my work throughout a wedding day.
This is Bill & Joy's colorful and fun day at Tehama in Carmel. They wanted the day documented but didn't want to feel like they were posing for photos all day. The majority of their day was unposed and candid with just a few posed portraits and family photos. The result is a beautiful gallery of authentic moments AND their wedding day experience as they wished.
“We loved how Shannon's photography captures the littlest moments and makes everything feel elevated but natural.”
I look forward to talking with you both more about your wedding and I'll be happy to answer any questions you may have.
If you’re ready to move forward - magic! I’ll send you an agreement and a payment link for the booking fee. Everything is done online to make it a seamless and quick experience.
I hope to work together!
