About Me
Hi, I’m Shawn Clemmons—photographer, storyteller, and founder of Clemmons Creative.
Based in the Des Moines metro area, I bring over 15 years of experience behind the lens, capturing everything from life’s big milestones to professional moments that matter.
I specialize in working with high school seniors, couples and engaged pairs, as well as professionals looking for authentic, polished headshots or lifestyle branding. Whether you’re celebrating a graduation, capturing your love story, or updating your business presence, I’m here to make the process easy, relaxed, and—dare I say—fun.
Clients often say they appreciate my calm, friendly vibe and ability to bring out natural expressions (yes, even for the camera-shy). I believe great photography starts with trust and connection—and maybe a few well-timed dad jokes.
When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll find me at concerts (R&B, pop, and rock are my go-tos), rollerskating, or spending time with my family. I also have an ongoing love affair with Chick-Fil-A that my wife lovingly teases me about.
At Clemmons Creative, you’ll get more than quality images—you’ll get an experience that’s personal, professional, and tailored to bring out the best version of you.
