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!

I had a great experience with Shané during my photo session. She is a consummate professional who has a true talent for capturing special moments in time. She did everything she could to make me feel comfortable in front of the camera. 

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!

"What an amazing experience. Imiivo Photography is the quintessential professional and also super down to earth. I felt so confident, comfortable, and at times powerful and others quite demure. The looks, the poses, the music, the vibrations, everything was on a 10. I walked out feeling like I just left my Essence cover session! Can’t wait to go back!"

Never in a million years would you imagine pampering yourself and treating yourself to such an experience and that’s the exact reason why you should.

Is this you?

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.

You can't make more time but we help you mark this moment in time.

A memorable experience for a lifetime.

I had the most incredible experience with Imiivo Photo Studios.

During the pandemic I "updated" my professional headshot. Turns out you get what you get when you use a cell phone, black dress, and blank wall!  

Needless to say, the time had come for me to invest in a more classy look. Shané was truly a Godsend. I read an article about her in the HoCo Executive newsletter and immediately reached out. From our first telephone interaction to the day I returned for the big reveal…she was nothing short of amazing…

As someone who likes to "stay in my box", I found her gentle nudges to try something different very comforting. She brings a wealth of professional experience, as well as a great eye for color and texture. 

On the day of the session, my makeup artist and I received a very warm welcome to her studio. My favorite songs were already playing in the background and a few of my favorite snacks were available to enjoy. We really felt like we'd arrived at our BFFs house!  

Her patience and persistence are the key to client success. I was quite stiff during the session. But, when I returned to view my photos, I was shocked at how many great pics she was able to capture. I walked in thinking I would leave with one, maybe two pics...I actually purchased a total of 5!

Your message is only as powerful as the visuals that accompany it.

I booked Shané for 1:1 brand coaching and a photo session. If you're a woman starting your business, the first thing you need to consider is your personal brand. People buy from people, not companies. When I came to Shané seven months ago, my brand message was all over the place…She helped me define myself, in my own words, but also coached me through my business…She did it with a smile and exuberance. She lifted me up on tough days and celebrated my wins with me. I didn't have to feel alone in the process, which is amazing since being an entrepreneur can feel lonely sometimes. She is such a pleasure to work with and a true talent with her coaching and photography.
