Shawna Benson Photography

We have used Shawna for both of our daughters' senior pictures and have been exceptionally happy with the results. People regularly comment on the quality and uniqueness of the portraits. In addition, Shawna is exceptionally easy to work with and very responsive. If we had questions or adjustments we wanted to make, she was regularly available via text and call. On top of that her prices are very reasonable - an outstanding value for the quality of service and product we received.

Shawna was perfect. I had my Service Dog with me and she was able to get some pictures of us together and even one of him by himself. The pictures turned out great and I’m enjoying putting my face on everything.

Shawna Benson took my senior photos and I couldn't be happier with them! Her work is amazing and shooting with her was fantastic. She's both personable and profession. I'm often quite camera shy, but Shawna made sure I was comfortable and helped me feel confident. Again, thank you so much Shawna!!

My daughter came back from her senior portrait shoot with Shawna just beaming! She had a great time, Shawna made her feel special and beautiful and it showed in all of her photos. My aunt said, "These are the best senior portraits I've ever seen." I couldn't agree more.

Shawna's professionalism, expertise and experience cannot be beat. She had a plan, knowing the best time of day to capture the light for each location and she executed it beautifully; all while making the after fun for my daughter, and myself. My daughter and I LOVE the photographs, we could not be happier with the entire experience. Thank you, Shawna!!!

Shawna took my son's senior photos. She was terrific to work with! She went above and beyond, took my son to multiple locations, and even snapped some pictures of the whole family at the end of his photo shoot! And the pictures turned out amazing! We will definitely be going to Shawna for our future photo needs. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience Shawna!

I met Shawna years ago and was incredibly impressed by her,. I noticed her work, incredible quality, and such a genuine person! She to me is the foundation of someone that sees things through her "camera" lens, but Shawna is the lens, which is why she is exceptional. She has produced amazing photos of my children as they graduated, years ago, and travels the valley on a photo shoot to make the right location work for the individual person and who they are as a person, and doesn't settle until she says, "that's a good one". Her photos are very personal, and Shawna looks for the individuality in her "subjects - friends - clients", that's what you want when someone is photographing you.... She recently worked with me on my updated Branding photo for my marketing, and it is so important to me to make sure who I am, and what I want to communicate, is in that photo, for all of my publications....I highly recommend Shawna!

We were fortunate enough to have Shawna Benson photograph our daughter for her senior pictures and we couldn’t be more pleased with them! Shawna takes the time to get to know her clients, developing a trusting relationship with them. She is kind, thoughtful, genuine and mindful and she truly strives for the best experience for all. She knows the entire valley like the back of her hand and is so intuitive in knowing the best spots, as well as the best time of day, to capture amazing pictures. We highly recommend Shawna Benson Photography!

Shawna is fantastic! She has photographed my two daughters for their senior pictures and we will definitely be booking her for our son.

I never thought I could have so much fun in front of a camera! Shawna put me fully at ease and it really showed. She brought out my best self to shine through for the camera.

Would highly recommend to anyone looking to create a personal touch for a business or website, or just for celebrating life!

Shawna is phenomenal, highly recommend!! She really knows her locations and she took time to get to know what my daughter was interested in and how she wanted her senior pictures to look... All my kids want her for their senior pictures!

Shawna is professional yet down to earth. She captured our daughter and her personality, beauty, and love for Montana perfectly. The spots she picked were incredible. Highly recommended!

Shawna was so wonderful to work with! She planned perfectly to get the best light for our pictures. She spent time entertaining our two young daughters in between shots to get them to smile and play. She was comfortable to be around and really captured the vision I wanted for our family pictures. We will definitely be using her again in the future!

Shawna is personable, attentive and above all talented. She made the three location, outdoor shoot of our 12yo easy and fun. He had a great time, the smiles came naturally. Her eye for locations, their shadows/light, colors and architecture make the final images just outstanding! She is flexible and experienced, and her technology makes scheduling fast and easy. I don't think I can write a review to do her services justice. As they say, "a picture is worth a thousand words..."
You won't be disappointed.

Shawna did a fantastic job calming nerves and making My daughter feel comfortable. And to top it off, Shawna captured her unique personality too. Thank you for taking photos that will be cherished by our family for years and years to come! 💕
