Reviews from past couples…
I can’t believe how fortunate my husband and I are to have found and worked with Shannon. I happened to find her on an elopement photographer website and instantly fell in love with her photography. Not only that, but when I inquired as to cost and what she recommended for my specific day she was quick to respond, kind, and honest with her suggestions and advice. Shannon really does think about every last detail and made the entire process so seamless by asking the right questions and truly understanding the goals we had in mind for our special day. Not only that but she was able to quickly make adjustments when we discovered that some of our older guests could not walk as far as we anticipated. If you have the opportunity to do something exciting and different for your wedding, you should absolutely choose Shannon for your special day. Also did I mention she’s just an overall incredible human being? Thank you Shannon for everything 🙏🏼

We chose Shannon as the photographer for our Sedona wedding based on her stunning portfolio and also our initial chat. Shannon combines professional with anything-goes-adventure! She (and her assistant son!) was so much fun to work with. Her talent with finding the right angle, lighting, and pose is unmatched. My husband talked about hiring her the next time we cross country for another adventure shoot!
~ Megan N.
Shannon was an absolute pleasure to work with – I couldn’t have pulled off my proposal without her! From planning around shuttle schedules to making sure our hike timing coincided with excellent lighting, Shannon thought of everything to make sure that our game plan went off as smoothly as possible.
She is an incredibly talented photographer and our engagement photos are absolutely stunning. Shannon goes the extra mile whether that’s hauling camera equipment up a mountain or making sure no one wanders into your photos! We would highly recommend her to anyone, especially if you’re looking for an expert adventure photographer who can help you capture a special moment in the great outdoors.

Benefits of hiring a Sedona wedding photographer
Hi! I’m Shannon- and I want to be your Sedona Wedding & Elopement Photographer
Hi! I’m Shannon Durazo, and I would be thrilled to be your your Sedona Wedding, Elopement, Vow Renewal, or Engagement Session Photographer! I know you have a wide range of choices for your Sedona wedding photography, so I want to say thank you for considering me to capture your special moments.
I moved to Arizona 20 years ago after meeting and falling in love with my desert dwelling husband. For me, Sedona was love at first sight- the perfect mix of desert and mountains, with a touch of magic that is hard to explain without feeling it for yourself. I never tire of exploring the gorgeous red rock vistas and winding trails between manzanita and barking juniper trees. From the well known- more travelled trails, to hidden caves tucked away in canyon walls, I’ve spent thousands of hours wandering the Arizona desert both in my personal time, and helping couples live out their willdest wedding and elopement dreams.
