May 5, 2023Amazing Photographer!
Shana is wondering inside and out. She was able to give me great instructions and I felt very comfortable. It was my first time taking branding photos & I was comfortable from feeling nervous before arriving. Highly recommended!

April 28, 2023The Blake Wedding
Shana was absolutely AMAZING. Not only did I feel like I had known her forever when I met her, but she made me feel so comfortable behind the camera. She captured so many wonderful moments I know I would’ve missed. She truly made Alex and my dream wedding come true.

December 17, 2022What a pleasure!
Shana and Will photographed our holiday party and provided videos as well. They shot tons of pictures and also provided raw video footage. AND even though I didn't request it (in fact I even said it wasn't necessary) they provided a highlight reel set to the tune of National Lampoons Holiday Road which captured the heart of the party! Shana was absolutely wonderful to deal with. She made herself available to take my calls and texts (which were a lot!) so that she could answer every question I could think to ask. They moved about the party with grace and professionalism and caught it from every possible angle. I don't need to shop around for a photographer the next time I need one; I know exactly who I'd call, Shana Clarke and Will Clarke. Thank you Shana and Will for capturing our memories in a wonderful way!
PS I don't have any pictures of her in action, she was the one behind the camera lense- haha

June 22, 2022Exceptional Wedding Photography!!!
Shana and her husband, Will were absolutely perfect for our backyard wedding photography! They were so outgoing and friendly, made the obligatory family photos fun and captured all the little details of our backyard wedding. We were looking for a variety of portraits as well as candid photos and they got it all! Will brought his drone and took photos from the sky, even us departing the wedding on the boat! Received the edited photos thru google drive just a week later. I highly recommend Shana and no detail was left behind!!

Shana was amazing!! She’s an excellent communicator, arrived early, extremely personable and a joy to work with. I LOVE how our photos turned out - she’s very talented and professional. I will use her again and again in the future and highly recommend her for anyone looking for a top notch photographer.

What to expect
My style and main goal of photography and videography is to capture events and emotions as they are naturally playing out. There are obviously times and places for staged/posed photos and I always try to capture those as well, but when looking back on photos (and videos), most people want to see how happy they were, catching that glance at your new husband, your child making a wish before he blows out the candles, grandma dancing like no one's looking. I try to be there for THOSE moments. They are what truly describes the event!
About
Hello! I'm so excited you're here!
I'm Shana [pronounced Shaw-na] Nichole, a photographer & videographer based out of Norfolk, VA. I am known to most of my friends as a "cat lady" but I like to consider myself a lover of all things furry and cute! When I'm not photographing, I enjoy traveling the world and meeting new people, a whiskey neat, and some lovely animal within petting distance.
Well, it all started with a classic Pentax K1000 film camera that was gifted to my boyfriend and I... we didn't realize it at the time, but that tiny piece of machinery would change both of our lives forever ! What a blessing it has been to share the same hobby and passion with the one you love. I just couldn't get any luckier!
I specialize in portrait sessions, weddings, and real estate in the Hampton Roads area.
Additional booking notes
The only thing I require is a board feed for audio if I'm shooting video. Everything else is organic.
