Heeeyyy!
I'm Shanna Mae. 
Portrait & Lifestyle photographer capturing real stories in Montana, Yellowstone, & worldwide.

You can stop looking... You've found your photographer!

Because real life is fun,

and your photos should be too.

Photography for the people who laugh loud, love hard, hustle with heart—and want to remember every bit of it.

WAYS TO WORK TOGETHER

RESOURCES

Your story deserves more than cookie-cutter images. Whether you’re celebrating a new chapter, launching a brand, wrangling wild kids for family photos, or popping the big question—I’m here for the real stuff. The belly laughs, the spark, the quiet moments, and the chaos in between. My goal? To make you feel comfortable, have fun, and walk away with photos that feel like you—not like everyone else.

Or photos that scream
“I had no idea what to do with my hands."

Photography isn’t just posed smiles and perfect outfits.

MEET SHANNA MAE

I’m here to capture your most important moments—whether you’re stepping into your future with a branding session, celebrating family milestones, or saying “yes” in the most magical way. I believe your photos should feel like you—natural, joyful, and unforgettable. When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll probably find me hiking in Montana, daydreaming about my next adventure, or laughing at the chaos of life (while capturing it, of course). Let’s make your photos feel like the real you—fun, true, and full of heart.

Your go-to photographer for real moments, big milestones, and a whole lot of fun.

Hey! I'm Shanna Mae!
