We want your experience with SHP to be enjoyable, and worry free. There are too many times in life when we get caught up in documenting an event that we forget to experience it. SHP is here to allow you to sit back and relax during those special moments so you don’t have to hassle with cameras and worry about getting all those “Kodak” moments.

SHP is one of two photography companies that merged to form Defy Photography. For more information on Defy, you can visit their website.
