From that first phone call to the final joyful delivery, I am dedicated to making sure you feel heard and cared for every step of the way. How do I do it? Well, come take a peek behind the scenes at the Shanna Castro Wedding Photography Experience! 

Say Aloha

All you have to do to get this party started, is say hello! Hit pause on your favorite episode of “The Office” or “Insecure” and tell me a little bit about yourself and the wedding day you’re planning. Don’t worry, we will dig into the deets soon!

Talk Story

I believe with all my heart that the best wedding photography begins with friendship, so let’s hop on a call to get to know each other a little bit better! I want to hear your proposal story and what your dream wedding day looks like, as well as what your hopes and expectations are for your wedding photography. If we are a good fit, then... 

Join the ‘Ohana

It’s time to make it official! After we craft your ideal wedding photography collection, all you have to do is return the signed contract and non-refundable retainer fee. And just like that, you’ve booked your wedding photographer! Cheers!

Document Your Engagement

Now, it’s time for the fun to begin! Four to six months before the big day, we will head out to your favorite location to snap some engagement photos. Not only is this a great way to personalize your save the dates and wedding decor, but it’s also the best possible way to get comfortable and confident in front of the camera! And don’t worry, I’ll expertly guide you through every step of the way!

Build a Friendship

This is the “choose your own adventure” part of the experience. I’ll definitely check in regularly with you leading up to your wedding day, but if you’d like more assistance, advice, or input, I’m ready and willing to give you a hand! I simply want to ensure that you arrive on your wedding day feeling joyful and stress-free, and I’ll do anything I can to make that dream a reality.  

Craft the Timeline

Speaking of “stress-free,” did you know that the best way to prepare a stress-free wedding day is to create the perfect timeline? Three months before your celebration, I’ll help you structure your wedding day so that transitions feel effortless, delays don’t mean doom, and not a single moment of photography feels rushed!

The Final Countdown

With two weeks to go before the big day, we will have a final check-in to tweak your timeline, offer some final tips, and triple-check arrival locations and times. This way, you can truly enjoy the final days leading up to your wedding day without worry!

Say “I Do”

With all the preparation in the rearview, it’s finally time to party! And because of our extensive prep work, you can fully enter into each moment knowing that I won’t miss a thing. So, let’s celebrate!
