About Me


I grew up in a small town in Montana (Well every town in Montana is small). Since that time, I've traveled quite a bit. I joined the Navy and spent 6 years partying and living the wild life (and doing a lot of stupid things). Since the time I left Montana, I've lived in Chicago, VA Beach, San Diego, Newport Beach, Albuquerque NM, and now Portland Oregon. When I got out of the Navy, I gave my heart to Jesus and my life has done a 180. God showed me all the times he was there looking after me even when I didn't realize it. It was the best and most important decision I've ever made. God has blessed me so much since and the only thing I regret is not doing it sooner. My faith is the biggest part of my life and everything else is secondary. I've found that as I draw closer to God he draws closer to me just like he promises in his word. It's awesome and everyday I want to know God better.I am a photographer and it is my passion. I absolutely love it. Right now I do all kinds of photography, I've got a small studio set up at home but I also like to go out and find new locations to make interesting shoots. I do weddings with my business partner and friend (Joshua Mitchell Photography, www.joshuamitchellphotography.com I am also available for events, band, product, specialty or whatever you may need. I have more samples of my work and prints for sale on my website. www.shawnstpeter.comI've got a great family, and great friends.
