Steckel Family
"We had so much fun during taking the pictures, and the pictures looks amazing. Made it very hard to choose the favorites when you like them all. Shayna was very nice and professional, and made sure I got the images I wanted inspired by Pinterest."
Kress Family
"Shayna was so very sweet to us and our children. My children don’t listen very well lol but her patience was exceptional! When I received the pictures, the talent she has is amazing. We are excited and happy to say we look forward in working with Shayna in the future."
