Meet Shane
Film and Digital Photographer
Where I Come From
Growing up on the Central Coast, CA I was constantly surrounded by serene natural beauty, so picking up a camera just seemed to make sense. Inspired by my father, who was a wildlife photographer, I took photos of anything that caught my eye.
Fast forward to now, that love for photography has only grown and I find daily inspiration in the things around me. I work heavily in film as it was the first format I learned to use. To me, there is something truly distinct and timeless about film photography that is very difficult to emulate with digital. I always aim to create something unique and memorable so that my clients have something beautiful to hold onto and cherish.
I look forward to hearing from you and can't wait to create something magical.
Passion and Inspiration
I am inspired and driven by many things in my life most of which being my amazing wife Kailah. She supports me in all of my goals and inspires my work in so many ways.
The magic of being with your person is unlike anything else. I chose wedding photography for that reason, to help others share and remember the love they have between each other. Documenting the love between two people is truly special, there's nothing quite like it.
Home
I've been lucky enough to call many places home. The Central Coast, Santa Cruz, Hawaii, and now San Diego. Always excited for new places and new experiences.
