The face behind Wild and Free by Shan Lee.

I’m a wedding photographer, a storyteller at heart, and someone who will probably cry behind the camera during your vows (quietly… but it happens).

But outside of weddings, I’m a mum first.
To my beautiful girl Margot, and currently growing our second little love (which still doesn’t feel real some days). Life at the moment is a mix of slow mornings, snack negotiations, and soaking up every little moment before everything changes again.

I’m also a Choccy Labrador dog mum to Anthony who very much thinks he runs the house… and honestly, he kind of does.

And a wife to my husband Mitchell, my calm in the chaos, my biggest supporter, and the one who’s usually behind the scenes helping me carry gear, wrangle life, and keep everything moving. He’s my everything

We’re a family that loves the simple things.

Camping, exploring, chasing sunshine, our annual trips up north (which we look forward to all year), good coffee and just being around good people, good energy, and good vibes.

Right now, we’re also semi deep in renovating our 100-year-old home the kind of project that’s equal parts chaos and magic. Dust (oh the DUST!), plans, Pinterest boards, and big visions… but we’re building something that feels like us.

And that’s probably the best way to describe how I approach your wedding day too.

I’m not here for perfect.
I’m here for real.

For the in between moments. The way your mum looks at you. The chaos, the calm, the deep breaths, the belly laughs. The feeling of the day, not just how it looked, but how it felt.

My approach is relaxed, documentary led, and honest. I’ll guide you when you need it, but I’ll never force something that doesn’t feel like you.

Because years from now, I don’t want you to just see your photos, I want you to feel them all over again.

If you’re someone who values connection, emotion, and being fully present on your wedding day…

I think we’ll get along just fine 🤍
