Picking a photographer can be hard, the last thing you want is to go through all the effort and come out with boring photos that don’t show your families true personalities and connections.
My vibe is fun but focused (no pun intended). I’m super real, as making a real connection allows you to let loose and be your true selves together. No stress, no worry!!
I believe in capturing authentic, love filled photos and making you look damn good in the process.
I’ve been photographing love, joy and yes; the occasional bout of tears for over 18 years!
Having this much experience allows me to stay calm under pressure and know just what to do in any situation. You can relax knowing I’m focused on creating a stress-free and fun vibe. When the atmosphere is like this, the magic can flow and we can have a super enjoyable experience working together.
I see every session as a chance to share an epic adventure with lots of laughs along the way!!
I’ve photographed people in just about everywhere in our beautiful Newcastle and Hunter region. I know the best spots for family sessions, maternity and anything else you can think of. I love our hometown and would love a chance to show you around and find a special place for your photos. Some of my favourite locations include Morpeth Park with its gorgeous green grounds and big old fig trees and Paterson Park with a very forest and European feel.
Had the best adventure with this bunch. I am super grateful every day to do the things I love the most. Thanks soo much for having me capture all the life and love you have for each other. ❤️
📸 A Variety of Images
While the Red Truck Christmas setting is there to add a little festive magic, your gallery won’t be filled with Christmas-themed photos only. ❤️
I’ll capture a beautiful variety of images throughout your 20-minute session — including natural interactions, cuddles, laughter, playing, individual sibling moments and gorgeous family portraits.
The Christmas truck and festive styling are completely optional. If you’d prefer more natural family photos, we can keep the Christmas elements subtle and focus more on your family and the beautiful surroundings.
My goal is for you to walk away with a gallery that feels genuine, joyful and full of connection, with a little sprinkle of Christmas magic. 🎄✨ I am limiting my Red Truck sessions to one weekend at this stage so don’t miss this opportunity!!
Booking now open!! DM to secure your spot.

I am SO excited to finally share something completely new for Shannon Richmond Photography this Christmas! ❤️
Introducing OUR CHRISTMAS STORY — Christmas Mini Sessions at River Haus, Morpeth. 🏡🎄
This year, I wanted to create something a little different.
Not just a Christmas backdrop where everyone stands and smiles at the camera…
But a fun, relaxed little Christmas experience where you can simply enjoy being together while I capture the moments that happen naturally.
Think little hands rolling out Christmas cookies, kids cutting out their favourite shapes, cuddles in the lounge, laughter, Christmas mischief and all those beautiful little moments in between. 🍪🎄❤️
And of course, we’ll still make sure we capture those gorgeous family portraits you’ll want to print and treasure.
