The Missions behind Captured By Shawna
Hi friends, I’m glad you are here! I'm Shawna, a family photographer in Gallatin, Tennessee. I provide family photography, senior photos, and personal branding photography in Gallatin, TN and Hendersonville. Here are some of the opportunities I love to support and hope to continue supporting through my photography business!
How we GIVE back
2026 - Nigeria Mission Trip
During the last part of 2026, I will be part of a team heading to Africa for a mission trip with Hope Springs International.
Due to safety and security, we are asked not to release any detailed information about our upcoming trip.
I will update this page of my website when we get back, and I will share some of the trip on my socials. I am so excited to share the experience with all of you!
I am truly grateful for the amazing opportunity to serve the area we are headed to and to share the love of Jesus in a way many people may never get to because of funds.
In an effort to help raise money for this mission trip I will be running several promotions and photo sessions leading up to the trip! I am dedicating all of my proceeds from these sessions toward this trip. In the event there is any extra, it will be going towards our next mission trip or will contribute to the next clean water well we are able to sponsor!
Thank you to everyone who has supported my photography business.
Please be confident that you are supporting a worthy cause through Captured By Shawna!

Hi, I'm Shawna Adame — a portrait photographer based in Gallatin, Tennessee, with a heart for capturing authentic, meaningful moments that last a lifetime.
I specialize in Family Portraits, Senior Portraits, and Personal Branding & Headshots. Whether I'm photographing a family in the middle of a tickle fight, a senior stepping into their next chapter, or an entrepreneur putting their best foot forward, my goal is the same: to create beautiful images that tell YOUR story.
Photography found me at a time when I was searching for a way to combine my love of people with my creative spirit — and I've never looked back. Every session is an opportunity to connect, to laugh, and to create something truly special together.
I serve families and businesses throughout Gallatin, Hendersonville, Lebanon, Hartsville, White House, and the surrounding areas of Middle Tennessee. I would love to work with you!
