Shaunna Barry Photography creates timeless portraits. My style includes both classic portraiture, as well as photo-journalistic-style photography. What does this mean?
Imagine seeing portraits of your family taken by a photo-journalist, not a studio photographer. You will see your family as they really are… laughing, interacting, being themselves… you might even see the image of your husband tenderly kissing his little girl’s forehead, or even a shocking moment in which your two little boys stop fighting momentarily for a brotherly hug.
These are the moments I capture with my camera. What you will NOT see in your portrait is the frozen grin and stiff posing associated with many mass-market studios. I can spot the difference between a genuine, spontaneous smile and a “say cheese” one a mile away. I’ll bet you can too.
That is why I love to take time and bond with those I’m photographing... to get to know them and to get them to relax and start being themselves. Whether you prefer a more classic portrait, or editorial-style candids,I will give you portraits that beautifully capture the real person... portraits that make you smile and say, “That’s so them.”
