Shané was very kind, fun and patient during my shoot. From our first meeting to producing the final product Shane was on it. I am very pleased with her work. I highly recommend Imiivo!
Love, love, love Shané and her company. We have booked several shoots with this company! Very professional, timely, and amazing photography work. We love the atmosphere and the protection we felt doing the shoot during COVID.
I had a fantastic experience with Shané, she has a wonderful personality and made me feel comfortable during our photo session. The photos are amazing, I cannot wait to publish my website with them on it. Thanks Shané!

~ Shané K. Gooding
It never occurred to me that she would not always be there. I took her presence for granted, in denial of the natural cycle of life. After her passing, I was left with a profound longing for more portraits of the woman who shaped my world. This loss taught me the priceless value of the memories we curate and the absolute necessity of honoring our presence in the now.
Today, as a mother, I am constantly exploring the narrative of my mother’s journey while meticulously crafting the legacy and generational heirlooms I will leave for my son.
My journey into the art of portraiture began with my mother, a woman who was always the documentarian of our family but rarely the subject of her own story.

Feel celebrated through the power of a portrait.

My photoshoot with Imiivo Photo Studios surpassed my expectations. I am still in awe of the photos taken during my photoshoot. I find myself going back to the photos and wondering who is the woman in the pictures?
Then I remind myself that the woman in the pictures is me!
Shané was so professional and patient. Her pre-photoshoot welcome package and wardrobe consultation helped me to prepare and made me feel good about doing something for myself.
The final product simply wowed me and reinforced that there are "camera phone" pictures and then there are "professional" pictures. The finished product of the professional pictures was absolutely worth it, and I had fun during the session.
Shané has a way of coaching you through and making you feel at ease. I look forward to booking future sessions.
Shané is top tier in every way. Her eye behind the camera is a gifting and she pairs it so well with knack for details in her work. Whether for business or personal use you can't go wrong with choosing Imiivo. The photos are truly timeless you (or your brand) would be grateful.
Shoots with Shané are always professional and she goes far and beyond to make people comfortable in front of the lense.
"I'm SO SO appreciative of this experience!! You made my mom and me soooo comfortable. You really captured our energy in the photos. Your kind words and attention to detail mean so much. ❤️❤️❤️."
