About Us

Lightshed Photography Studio was established in 2007 upon Dan and Kendra’s graduation from Hallmark Institute of Photography. Together with Rob they opened their first studio in Peabody, Massachusetts. Just a few short years later they moved the studio to Salem, Massachusetts where they grew from a three person team to a five person team. The studio is able to offer a wide range of services as each photographer has their own specialty.
