At the end of the day, it's always been the moments that matter the most to us. We want you to have images that speak to your soul + we want you to have an experience you'll never forget. And images that bring you back to the little and big moments of the day. All of those moments, should be treasured for many years down the road.
ABOUT US
We're Shannon+Jake and we believe in creating moments that will never be forgotten.
We met in Colorado and married 2 years later in Florida and have been married for over 14 years now!
We moved to a beautiful cabin in the mountains with our twins (Ava + Ireland) and have 3 dogs (Bailey + Willie + Sunni), 1 cat (Annie) and 13 chickens (names change daily aside from Richard, the rooster), + 2 ducks (Honey+Lemon).
We're so thankful to be able to capture some pretty amazing moments in West Virginia, Maryland, Virginia, Colorado, Utah and beyond. When we aren’t working, you can find us adventuring with our twins in the outdoors or traveling. Read more about each of us below!
