I’m Nakeshia Shannon
A proud Clemson native, mom of three, and lifelong storyteller. Raised just minutes from the stadium where the sound of game day filled our home, I grew up surrounded by a deep love for people, place, and purpose. That same love guides my work today.
As the founder of Shan Media Co., I help creatives, entrepreneurs, and small businesses tell their stories with intention through impactful photography, compelling brand messaging, and editorial content that resonates. My background in photography, journalism, and public relations spans over 13 years, with features in magazines, interviews with local changemakers, and a steady drive to elevate others.
This work isn’t just about visuals or strategy—it’s about showing up with heart. Whether I'm writing a feature, capturing a brand’s essence behind the lens, or helping craft a launch story, my goal is always the same: to help people be seen, heard, and remembered.
I believe the best brands are built on real connection, and the most powerful content comes from knowing who you areand why you do it. That’s what we build at Shan Media Co.—stories with soul, strategy, and staying power.
