NOEL’S STORY

“Working with Shane was a fantastic experience!

From the very start he was professional but friendly, and we spent a lot of time talking about ideas, preferences, and what the shoot would be like. I had some privacy concerns, but Shane was patient and walked me through the security he takes with clients' photos and how seriously he takes respecting his clients' desires for privacy. I have a little experience with shibari safety, but Shane's knowledge of the art and all of the relevant safety protocols and best practices convinced me from the very start that he was the photographer for me. I had no doubt that I was in good hands.

I'd never done this before so I didn't know what to expect, but the entire day was great. We had time to chat and "break the ice" a little while the excellent makeup artist Shane chose made me the most beautiful version of myself - he asked about my preferences for the look and my hair, how much makeup I typically wear, and about my skin to make sure I would not only be happy with the result, but would still feel like me and be comfortable.

When we started taking photos, my inexperience gave me pause--I've never taken a single "racy" photo in my life! Shane's professionalism and easy manner were on display as he walked me through ideas and poses that made me feel more at ease, and we shared some cheesy jokes and stories that made me really laugh. If you've never seen a relaxed photo of yourself truly smiling and at ease, you'll be amazed at how genuine you look and feel and how much you'll treasure that photograph.

At the end of the day, we'd shared snacks and stories and laughs so by the time we sat down to review photos together it felt as though I'd made a friend. There were so many amazing options that it felt impossible to choose, but once we were finished, I felt confident in my choices. My book arrived today and the quality of the photos and the finished product are unmatched.

If you're looking for just the same few standard poses so many boudoir photographers use, taken by someone who sees you as just another face in the lens at bargain basement prices, you're not in the right place. But if you're looking for a great experience that reflects who you are and is tailored to your personality, by someone who gets to know you provides an amazing, quality, lasting set of portraits you'll always enjoy looking back at, Shane is the photographer for you, too.”

 

Tiffany’s Story

I've been working with Shane for about two years now, and since the first time we've met, he has been one of the most welcoming and talented photographers I have ever worked with. We always have a great time together, and the creativity behind every shoot is evident. We've made some of our best work together just by being ourselves, having fun, letting the creativity flow. He brings out the beauty in any and everyone. 

Shane also has an indescribable ability to make you feel perfectly comfortable in your own skin. He doesn't ask you to be anything you aren't; simply be yourself and he'll capture that beauty. It's rare to find a photographer who has such a distinct style, yet captures each person so differently. 

It's been such an honor to work with Shane for so long, and I truly look forward to every single shoot.

Ryan’s Story

Shane is a true artist with a vision and it's an amazing experience to be a part of that vision. He has always made me feel comfortable while shooting and has respected any personal boundaries. I was very nervous before doing my first boudoir shoot because I was concerned about upholding my image and making sure that the shoot was tasteful. I perceived myself as beautiful but not boudoir sexy.

When shooting with Shane for the first time, I felt completely free and relieved to be in a safe, creative space to be vulnerable. I was able to convey my natural sensuality in my shoot with Shane. Since then, we have shot together multiple times and he has become one of my great friends. His creativity exceeds my expectations with every shoot, as he knows how to show a range of perspectives when utilizing the same space and subject. The vibe is very relaxed, playful and fun. He really knows how to bring out his subject's inner confidence and beauty. I have felt the most beautiful when shooting, during my photo shoots with Shane. Trust and know that with his abstract eye and experience, every shoot will be pure magic!

Minori’s Story

I booked Shane thinking I would like to know myself, but its rare for me to take photos without wearing clothes. I’m not a professional model, so I was pretty nervous and I didn’t know what kind of faces to make or poses to do. However, working with Shane I became less nervous little by little. With the sound of the shutter and the glimpse of light in the viewfinder, I felt just like he was peeking into my world. I think its obvious if you look at the photos he takes that he can find the feminine beauty that each woman has. All the poses felt natural, and Shane is talented in creating space that is free from anxiety and doubt.

I’ve shot with him a few times now, and I’ve learned from him that a professional is a person who gives a joyful experience. He’s always light-hearted and funny while working, giving direction and guidance when needed and his attitude encourages me to believe in my personal charm and makes me feel confident in myself.

 

Ashley’s Story

My experience shooting with Shane was awesome! If you are looking for someone who handles their craft with professionalism, attention to detail, creativity, and passion then look no further!! Shane is a talented photographer with a gentle persona that makes you feel comfortable and confident (I'm super shy so that is saying a lot). He is very easygoing and willing to work with you. He really takes his time to understand your preferences and understands that your comfort is #1.
Overall, the whole experience was so much fun!! I highly recommend you book with Shane!

Jenapher’s Story

I had an absolutely incredible experience working with Shane- he has an easygoing personality that makes you feel welcome and safe and respected. You can tell he takes his time with his work, and inspiration grows as you progress through the photoshoot. 

He takes a lot of consideration into putting together a shot, and shows up prepared- but he also leaves room for improvisation! 

I have so many great shots from him and still post them to this day because they are so solid. I really recommend working with him!

Valerie’s Story

Shane absolutely rocks. He's been a photographer for quite a while and I've been following his work some time before deciding to take these pictures. Seeing his works, I've always been amused by the things that he's able to see and his ability to play with light.

During our session, he was able to capture moments that matched my personality and I am super happy with the photos he took. Shane was able to help me feel comfortable and sexy in my own way without the awkwardness that I am in front of a camera. 

If you're looking to take some sweet/sexy/artsy photos, Shane's your go-to man!
