About me

I'm So Happy You're Here

My goal as your photographer is to create a calm, fun, and comfortable experience while capturing the meaningful moments in your life as they unfold. Whether it’s a family session to preserve memories you’ll cherish forever, a couples session celebrating your engagement or next chapter together, a maternity session honoring the beautiful life you’re bringing into the world, or anything in between, I’m here to document it in a natural, heartfelt way.

Reilly Shaughnessy

My name is Reilly Shaughnessy, born and raised in San Diego, California. I’ve always had a love for photography, even from a young age. My dad gave me my first DSLR when I was 13, and it went everywhere with me—mainly to my brother’s baseball games—where I spent hours learning, experimenting, and getting comfortable behind the camera.



Around 16, I found my way into concert photography, which is where I really began to grow creatively and dive into the editing process and everything you can do beyond the camera itself. By the time I was about 20, my focus shifted toward families and couples sessions, where I discovered a deeper appreciation for capturing meaningful, lifelong memories that people will look back on for years to come.

Clients Say

Reilly is AMAZING! My husband and I did our engagement photos with her and she was so fun! It was the first time either of us got professional photos done so we were really nervous. She made us laugh the entire time and got amazing candids. The poses she asked us to do weren’t awkward and we love every single photo.  Reilly is THE BEST!

Clients Say

Reilly is amazing. We took our elopement pictures with her and our Christmas pictures. In both we brought our fur babies, they are our world and we greatly appreciated how kind and patient she was with them. We never felt like they were a bother to her and even though they can be super playful she still gets the BEST shots of them! Thank you for everything Reilly

I hired Reilly for a surprise proposal in San Diego and it was the best decision I made! She communicated perfectly, she was an hour early to the set up and in the end she took amazing pictures! My fiancé and I are going to cherish these forever. I highly recommend you book with her!
