About
I specialize in soft, natural photography that captures real connection and emotion in a relaxed and comfortable way. From surprise proposals and couples sessions to families and little moments in between, my goal is to create timeless images that feel genuine and full of warmth. I love guiding sessions in a way that feels easy and natural, so nothing looks overly posed or forced. My editing style is warm, cinematic, and true to the moment, with a focus on preserving emotion and beautiful light. Based in the Florida Gulf Coast area, I offer beach, sunset, family, couple, and proposal photography sessions with a calm and personalized experience from start to finish.

Shiva was wonderful to work with. I hired her to discreetly photograph my engagement with my now fiancée and she captured the moment perfectly. She was very responsive from the beginning and through the whole process. She met us on the beach and my fiancée had no idea she was there until after I proposed. She helped make the moment special for both of us. Her photography was beautiful. She was quick with providing us the photos although she was very thorough with editing and selecting the best ones. Our jaws were on the floor when we saw the quality of her photography. We will treasure our photos forever and we are very thankful Shiva was a part of our day. Thank you Shiva! We could not recommend her more.

We had an amazing experience with our engagement photographer! She was incredibly responsive from the start and made the whole planning process feel easy and stress free. She stuck to our plan perfectly and played such a key role in making the proposal moment seamless. One of the best parts was how she stayed completely hidden during the proposal, which made the moment feel so natural and special. Afterward, she was so kind and easy to talk to, which helped us relax and enjoy the shoot even more. On top of all that, she edited and delivered the photos so quickly, and they turned out absolutely beautiful. We couldn’t be happier and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented and professional photographer!

We had the absolute best experience with Shiva for our Anna Maria Island photoshoot! She was incredibly friendly, professional, and so accommodating throughout the entire process. She made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and captured the most beautiful moments effortlessly. What impressed us even more was her quick turnaround time! She delivered our photos within just one day, and they were absolutely stunning! Every image exceeded our expectations, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. If you’re looking for a talented photographer who is kind, responsive, and truly gifted at what she does, I highly recommend Shiva. We will cherish these photos forever!

We had such a lovely time during our family photoshoot. The photographer was warm and patient, and made us feel comfortable right away. We especially loved how natural the photos turned out. We also received the edited photos, and they came out beautifully. We were really happy with them. Wishing them all the best as they grow!
