Shakirah Salandy Walker
Am I the right photographer for you? I’m a bold and vibrant aesthetic content photographer and creative director in the Raleigh, NC area. I am open to travel and shoot both on location, outdoors and in studio. I specialize in semi-posed and prompted lifestyle photography with my content producing lively and saturated skin tones and settings. My camera captures portraits, families, boudoir, couples, graduates, seniors, school portraits, headshots, and more! As a former event planner I take the opportunity to wear the creative director hat with my styled mini-sessions offered throughout the year and custom-curated staple sessions offered year-round. My goal for each session is to capture the natural energy of our time together in a comfortable, fun and genuine space. I am there to help guide you into posing, chat and get to know you! At the end of the session I hope you feel like you had more fun than you expected, felt comfortable and can’t wait to book another. I encourage you to browse my work and let me know if our styles match!
“I'm in a passionate romance with life, and my camera is capturing the story”
Who's behind the camera? I am a published Raleigh-based photographer. When I am not taking photos, I am doing any and everything I can to live my best life. I love to travel both inside and outside the U.S. I am a fur mom to the world's most adorable Schnoodle, Dori, and a first-time boy mom to my sweet son, Theodore. I married my high school sweetheart, so you may see him around. If I'm not editing or shooting a session, I am most likely running up a tab at the Alamo Draft House or throwing a party for literally any reason. Wishbone Photography was born out of love. My husband proposed to me over a wishbone, I love what I do so it was only fitting to incorporate it into my business name. Can't wait to see you on the other side of my camera!
