Family Photographer in Calgary
Serving Banff, Canmore & Kananskis
Gentle guidance. Real connection.
Family photographs that feel like you.
Vibrant, Heartfelt Family Photography That Captures the Connection, Laughter & Beautiful Chaos of Your Family in Calgary and the Alberta Rockies
For you, it’s not about the perfect hair or an unwrinkled outfit.
It’s how their hand fits into yours.
It’s the silly things that make you all laugh when you are together.
It’s what makes your family ‘YOU’ at this point in time. And for you, it is an important thing to remember, so that years from now, you can look back and be reminded of these precious moments, taking you back to this feeling and the connection you share.
Whether it’s a goofy look, a quiet moment of togetherness, or the joyous chaos of everyday, I am here to preserve the essence of your family. These are the moments you’ll look back on and cherish for years to come.
If this is your vibe….
Capturing joy, preserving your unique connections to forever remember.
Worried about family photos? You don’t need to be.
After 15 years as an elementary school teacher, and over 10 as a Calgary photographer, I bring plenty of patience, playful games and a knack for connecting with kids of all ages. There’s no need for perfect behaviour or forced smiles. I’ll gently guide the session while giving your family space to be yourselves—and capture the beauty in who you are right now.
Love Letters from Calgary and Rocky Mountain Families
Year after year we look forward to hiring Shannon to capture our family.
Shannon has been photographing our family for years! She is not only a kind and caring person, but also such a wonderful photographer to work with! Just like in past years, we are so in love with all of our images and couldn’t have asked for a better family experience! Shannon is always so easy, fun, relaxed and patient with our young boys and naturally captures our family together without making it feel awkward. She is always so efficient and organized which makes the shoot go by very smoothly – a bonus with keeping our young kids engaged. Year after year we look forward to hiring Shannon to capture our family. We would 100% recommend Shannon to anyone considering family photos she is the best!
Even if you have a tantrum throwing, cold and crying 18 month old… she throws on a penguin costume and gets a smile and a great photo!
Shannon has been taking our family photos for more than 8 years! She has done our new born shoots, small family photos, extended family shoots and business shoots! They always are more than perfect. She’s fun and kind and delivers amazing photos every time. Even if you have a tantrum throwing, cold and crying 18 month old… she throws on a penguin costume and gets a smile and a great photo. You will not meet a more genuine person and will never regret hiring her (and guaranteed making a new friend because… you will want to be friends with her!).
