⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “OMG! I’m no model, but this was one of the best photo sessions I’ve ever had! Shane made me feel comfortable & confident, and she gave me awesome direction! Shane is warm, fun, professional and skillful. I find her organizational skills to be top tier. She communicated flawlessly from the start of planning until it was time to review photos and beyond that. Her studio is welcoming and clean. I was nervous to be photographed , but I was quickly reassured that this was a great idea! If you’re looking for a professional, warm and skillful photographer, you’ve found her!! You won’t regret booking with Imiivo Photo Studios!”

It's more than just an image.

Every woman is worthy of her own statement portrait! 

Let’s design a portrait experience for that special guy.

Let it be a unique gift for you, your loved one or better yet, surprise someone special with prints from your photo session.

This experience is for the men too.

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, owner of Imiivo, is a true expert with the camera. Her friendly and positive demeanor made me feel at ease throughout my photo session. She was very patient and professional. She provided the much-needed guidance and direction for poses, facial expressions, etc. I highly recommend Imiivo for your portrait needs.

About the photographer...

Hi, I’m Shané, a professional Portrait Photographer, Personal Brand Simplifier and proud mother of a young one who pretends to be Sonic the Hedgehog...as of late. 

I create modern, confidence-building portrait experiences for the modern individual. And for solopreneurs, I help simplify their personal brand. I take a holistic approach to designing a personal brand package that lets you serve in your gift and amplify your value.

When working with me, clients enjoy a stress-free process and memorable experience that empowers them to unleash their best self.

Plus, I'm known to dance with you during your photo session. I can't have you dance alone.

Oh, and I’m a grown adult addicted to gummy bears (no judgement please). 

As a self-described empath, laid back perfectionist, and introvert...









And I cannot wait to do the same for you!

My aim is to help women take up space, celebrate their worth and unleash their superpower through the power of a portrait.
