Welcome to My Portrait World!

Hey there, friend! Come on in!

I'm Shana, a portrait photographer based in St. Louis with 24 years of experience behind the lens. Over the years, I've had the joy of creating heirloom portraits for families like yours, capturing moments that not only grace your walls today but also become cherished keepsakes for generations to come.

In a world where everything moves so fast, finding someone who can help you create "the" childhood portrait—a true family treasure—can be a challenge. That's where I come in. My passion is to craft portraits that feel timeless, that fit perfectly in your traditional home, and that your family will treasure for years to come.

I'm so happy you're here! Whether you're a longtime friend or new to my world, I'd love to get to know you better. Feel free to reach out and tell me where you're from and what you'd like me to share next! I’m all ears and excited to connect.

If this is your first time here, let me guide you on what to do next…

First, binge my pinned posts on instagram to get a feel for my work and style. Then, comment "LEGACY" to get more information on my mixed media Love & Legacy portraits sent straight to your inbox. These portraits are a blend of traditional techniques and modern artistry, perfect for creating a lasting legacy for your family.

I can't wait to see where this journey takes us together!
