I'm Shani! (Shawnee)


Mama. Photographer. Aviator. western lifesytle Enthusiast. Horse girl. Artist. chai tea lover.


I started taking pictures in 2012, and people like you have been the reason I haven't stopped since. I am so grateful to have been able to create a business off of something that I love and have so much passion for.


I'm a new mama as of June 2024 to a little boy and it has made my world so much brighter - I LOVE being a mom.


I have been flying airplanes since 2017 and work in Agriculture full-time. Agriculture is a passion that runs deep and I don't think I could ever get away from it.


As a Western/Ag enthusiast, and a pilot, I love that photography allows me to dive deeper into the core of the hobbies that I love and network along the way.


I believe that the best photos come from real-life moments. I will be sure to get some more traditional posed shots but I truly love capturing the candid, in-between raw and real moments. Whether they come naturally or with me giving you prompts. Don't worry, I'm here to help with posing, super-posed and candid.

No hour of life is wasted that is spent in the saddle.

Meet my son, Rowan.


Rowan smiles at everyone, loves steak, and doing anything outside. I'm obsessed with him, and being a Mama. He completes my entire world!


I love spending all my time being nap-trapped, singing silly songs, doing random things to see his smile, and make him laugh. There is so much joy in our home because of him.


I can't wait to snap so many photos to document him growing up. He is already growing way too fast.


It has been interesting to try to juggle a full time job, being a new mom, and photography ( so be patient with me ) but, it's been good to get back into the swing of things and I've missed snapping photos!
