Behind The Lens

Shannon Elise
Putting myself in the main frame does not come easily to me. I’m not normally the focus as I’m usually on the other side of the camera and I prefer to express myself visually.

However, I completely understand how important it is to choose the right photographer to capture your family celebrations and big occasions.

So, a little about me…

I’m a birth, pregnancy, newborn, family, wedding & lifestyle photographer based in the Eastern Suburbs of Sydney. During my 20+ years experience of both managing a top Sydney studio to running my own business I’ve developed a particular talent and love of photographing people and recently added lifestyle and product launches to my portfolio.

I am a not so organised wife, mother of three, lover of chocolate and enjoy nothing more than travelling the globe with my camera & family…..Hint hint I love a destination wedding or event!

Oh & I am slightly obsessed with my little people who you will find all through my feeds, blogs and website!

Welcome to my beautiful mess…


My Inspiration…

Comes from all things creative, vintage, boho luxe & quirky.

Travel is a huge inspiration for my work & opens my eyes and heart but most of all love inspires me… after all thats what I photograph.

LOVE in all its rawness.

I love what I do, my work, my business, my clients which are all a huge part of my life and I am extremely lucky to have turned my childhood dream of becoming a photographer into my full time profession.

The way I capture people’s personalities at their best:

Over the years I’ve learnt that the best way to capture people’s personalities is to create a relaxed atmosphere, spend time getting to know my clients & make the experience fun!

Say hello and we can start making memories!
