ABOUT SHAWN:
For as long as I can remember, I have always been interested in art and creativity. I attribute much of my talent and abilities to my grandfather who was an artist and an accomplished oil painter. I remember when I was a young boy, my grandfather taught me how to draw some three-dimensional shapes, a cube and a sphere to be exact. Tragically, his hands were crippled with arthritis, but he could still sketch them out. I was inspired by his ability and passion as an artist and devoted my spare time to drawing, painting and creating.
My first camera was a Canon AE-1 that my dad handed down to me. I was 16 years old at the time, and this is when my love for photography began. I was so excited at being able to manipulate light and frame images in ways that you wouldn’t normally view them. To me, photography became another outlet to create art and, more importantly, to encapsulate the world and the people around me on film.
With the revolution of digital photography and photo-editing capabilities, I discovered an even greater level of creative possibilities. During my three years in corporate marketing, I gained knowledge and training in the areas of creative development, graphic design and page layout.
After operating as a freelance photographer for over nine years and finding little satisfaction and fulfillment in the corporate world, I was given a vision for my own company. In November 2003, I started Newlight Photography and Design. Since that time, I have been living out my dream to help others view their world in a “new light.”
My style is progressive, clean, simple and straightforward. Ultimately my goal is to approach each project by stepping out of my own world and into the minds and hearts of my clients.
