Shannon Chiminiello Photography
Meet Shannon!
Shannon Chiminiello is a seasoned family and event photographer based in Marin County, California with over 17 years of experience photographing newborns, families, portraits, professional headshots, and a wide range of celebrations and events.
Her style is classic with a twist. While her work is timeless at its core, Shannon’s humor and spontaneity keep things relaxed, real and unexpectedly fun- resulting in images that are elegant yet alive- full of emotion and real human connection. Equal parts professional and refreshingly real, she connects effortlessly with people of all ages, helping clients feel comfortable quickly so they can so they can truly enjoy the experience (yes, even the camera-shy—and reluctant dads).
Shannon has an unquenchable thirst for capturing authentic moments and genuine connection. With gentle direction and intuitive guidance, she brings out the best in individuals and families while keeping the experience natural, fast paced and fluid. Some of her most recognizable work, now a signature of her style, features moments that go beyond the posed smile, as she believes the eyes, not the smile, tell the real story of a person’s soul.
And if black-and-white imagery speaks to you? Congratulations! You have found your photographer!
Shannon lives with her husband, two children, and two cats. She works throughout Marin County and surrounding areas and frequently travels to the island of Maui to photograph vacation getaways and meaningful moments away from home. Every session comes with professionalism, care, and a personal touch- you can count on Shannon giving you her very best, every time.
