Shanti contributed to our wedding day in such a meaningful and fun way, I cannot recommend her highly enough. She knows all the best shots (even at a tricky venue, like on a catamaran), she knows people in a way that creates ease and relaxation, and the results are spectacular. Thank you so much Shanti!
Shanti is amazing! She knew we wanted to enjoy our wedding and worked around that as she was taking pictures. Thanks so much for photographing our wedding and introducing a little bit of romance into our day. We can't imagine navigating without your coastal knowledge! Thank you again for the absolutely wonderful pictures.

I have been creating portraits for over 16 years. I have studied under Master Photographer Tamara Trejo, as well as earning a B.A. in Fine Art from California State University of Hayward. In 1997 I was awarded Photographer of the Year from the Professional Photographers of the Greater Bay Area, as well as receiving Environmental Photographer of the year, and first place in Environmental Photography.
My job as an artist is to capture who you are, not only as an impression, but also with a spirit that tells a story of a lifetime. Each family and moment is unique, which is why I really love to capture you in an environment that is true to you and/or your loved ones. I recommend a free consultation to view my work and to have a first initial meeting so I can help guide you to the right look and feel for this session.

Shanti was our wedding photographer back in 2017 and was amazing. We were so happy with everything she did, thought she put into photos, making sure our requested pictures were captured, and after our wedding coordinator stumbled to control our wedding day Shanti took control of this situation and everything was perfect. Fast forward to 2020 and we connected again with Shanti to do our first professional family photo with our son. Again Shanti did not disappoint us as she was amazing again in her interactions with our son and capturing some of the most amazing family moments. I honestly cannot

After my first phone call with Shanti, I knew she was perfect for us. I never understood when people said it was important to "interview" your photographer, but now I understand why! She was understanding about any sensitive family dynamics that may affect photos and made us all — including my photophobic husband! — feel so comfortable. She also got us our perfectly curated album full of gorgeous photos within about 3 weeks, while my friends who had gotten married a few months before with other photographers were still waiting for their photos. She is great at photographing couples, kids
