Shantel’s family moved to Spring, Texas USA, where she was raised.

Her career began early in her life, as she started modelling at the age of 15, signing with Page Parkes Management.

She would gain a bit of recognition when she appeared as a finalist in the “Sports Illustrated: Swimsuit Model Search” reality television series, but was eliminated. In 2007, it was reported that she would appear in the film adaptation of the novel “t.A.T.u Come Back”, in which she starred alongside Mischa Barton, which was later renamed internationally as “You and I”, being released in the US a year after its premiere in Russia. In 2009, she had a role in the film “The Final Destination”, which is the fourth installment of the horror film franchise.

Further Work – One Tree Hill, The Flash, and Others

During the same year, VanSanten was offered a role as a series regular in the television drama series “One Tree Hill”, which she subsequently joined during the show’s seventh season, portraying the role of photographer Quinn James, the sibling of Bethany Joy Lenz’s character. She would stay with the show until the series ninth and final season, the story following the lives of two half-brothers and the drama from their romances. Shantel then became a part of “Something Wicked”, which was the last film to feature the late actress Brittany Murphy.
