Growing up, my father was a photographer, and I always knew it was something I'd like to pursue. After attending Toronto Metropolitan University, I took a few years off traveling the world. Meeting so many vibrant people, having a ton of new experiences, and seeing so many awe-inspiring places really helped me to cherish the unique, beautiful, moments in life. I believe it is something that shaped who I am as a person, and as a photographer.
As a wedding photographer, my goal is to always tell your story in a way that is authentic to who you are as individuals and a couple. I want the vibe of your wedding to come through in your photos exactly how you felt it on the day.

I'm most at home in the middle of the action - whether that's exploring a new neighborhood, people-watching at a café, or dancing my way through a late-night street party. I’m drawn to energy, connection, and the small, unexpected moments that make life feel electric. My world is full of chosen family, shared laughter, and late-night conversations - the kind of things that make a place feel like home.
Driven by spontaneity, inspired by people.

"THE PHOTOS ARE ABSOLUTELY STUNNING AND CAPTURED OUR DAY PERFECTLY."
Shannon was an absolute DREAM start to finish. So down to earth and easy to chat to in our first consultation, totally communicative and understanding in the months leading up to our wedding, and a warm, fun and totally professional presence on the actual day!! Not to mention that we are OBSESSED with the photos she took. She's absolutely worth every penny!!
"WE ARE OBSESSED WITH THE PHOTOS"

We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer for our wedding. Shannon had a great eye for detail and guided us into poses that felt natural and comfortable, resulting in beautiful photos. We didn’t have to worry about a thing – Shannon’s direction made everything flow smoothly, and the end results were more than we could have hoped for. We’re so grateful for her work and highly recommend West of Yonge Studios.
Shannon was absolutely incredible through the whole process of wedding planning!! She made two camera shy people look like stars! Her eye for details, lighting and poses are stunning - she is an artist. Taking into account weather and needing to be flexible on the day, her quick decisions made us look great and captured natural relationships with our guests. The photos are moments and memories that we will treasure forever!
We couldn’t be happier with our choice to hire West of Yonge Studios for our engagement and wedding photography. In all the wedding day chaos, Shannon was a reassuring and calming presence. The photos are absolutely stunning and captured our day perfectly! She also clearly listened to our requests such as getting lots of nature portraits and photos of our guests enjoying the reception.
