First, can I just say how much I ***LOVE*** having a studio? Every time I drive over there, every time I walk in, every time I look out the window onto the street and see how stinking adorable downtown Campbell is, I just get so giddy with excitement. After spending over a decade picking up...
Adorable pictures, Shannon! I’m so glad the studio is working out so well!
I love these Shannon! I just got all giddy and excited about being able to hold MY baby in a few months…love the tiny butt picture…hehehehe 
beautiful work Shannon. You’ve got photography SKILLZ! (in addition to your bow-staff skills of course)
Ohmiheck! I didn’t know you’d gotten a studio! I’m going to have to comb through your blog and find pictures. That’s wonderful and congratulations…I’m not surprised that you love it! And I love your blog and your site and your logo and all of it. You’ve done really amazing things, Shannon!!!
I’ve got a huge backlog of sessions that haven’t been posted. And I’m starting to feel bad, because I love each and every one. Honestly. There’s something about hanging out with a family for over an hour, getting to know them, watching them interact, then coming home and re-living it as I proof. It’s amazing...

Hey Shannon! Couldn’t agree with you more about your family shot. Very very nice. Is quizzitive a word?
oh that last photo is perfection! My mom is a grandma who would love that!
LOVE LOVE the quizzative look image. Wow! That’s a really fabulous image!
These two are (ok, were, as this session is from a while ago and I’ve since done the baby session which can be seen here… eventually) expecting their first child. I love the excitement of soon-to-be first-time parents… They’re on the verge of something huge and while they *think* they have an idea of what...

So, I got back safely. (Last week.) And I had a great time. Tonight I had a dinner to remind me of the good times I had in Kentucky. You know… Kentucky Fried Chicken!! Complete with “honey sauce” that’s only 11% honey and “buttery spread” that didn’t even bother to include ingredients on the packet....

Kentucky misses you….
Oh I think you forgot that one of your friends is probably the biggest KFC nerd around. The Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant is actually not the first KFC. The first KFC in in your little home state of Utah! On South State Street to be exact. And it was named Kentucky Fried Chicken not because the Colonel was from Corbin but because Pete Harman thought it sounded better than Utah Fried Chicken! Yours truely helped created the memorabilia that is in the UT restaurant which included one of the Colonel’s original suite incased in glass. I could go on and on but I might scare you event more…
I’ve finished the books I had on my to-read shelf, and am finding myself without anything to read for my trip home on Tuesday. I’m calling out to you (yes, YOU!) to please suggest a great new read. Pretty please?

SHANNON!!!!!!!
1. I saw your pics you did for Stef’s family – - GASP – they are STUNNING and you ROCK!
2. Read LOVE WALKED IN by Marisa de los Santos, and as soon as you finish that, then read her next one called BELONG TO ME (story continues).
3. MISS YOU!
Looks like you are having a great time! What beautiful pictures!
I really liked The Host by Stephenie Meyer (better than the Twilight books). The first few chapters are hard to get into because it seems too sci-fi. But it’s a great story once you get going about human nature and such. Loved it.
I liked The Last Chinese Chef by Nicole Mones. And I haven’t read it yet, but my sister told me These Is My Words by Nancy E. Turner is really good.
Ok, I have NO suggestions. Sorry, I just haven’t been reading lately, but I had to comment that 2 times in the last 2 minutes (NO JOKE) I have gotten the recommendations for “Love Walked In” and it’s sequel, I’m gonna go with that.
I just read ‘Summers at Castle Auburn’ by Sharon Shinn and it was the most enjoyable story I’ve read for a long time.
I just read The City of Ember and The City of Sparks (YA/Kids books). I highly recommend them for ease and enjoyment. Also, Wallace Stegner’s The Angle of Repose, a great book.
Snowflower and the Secret Fan by Lisa See.
definitely read the Twilight series books by Stephanie Meyer. They are awesome, can’t put down kind of books!
I loved the Time Traveler’s Wife. Am enjoying The Memory Keeper’s Daughter now. LOVE anything by JAmes Patterson, Nicholas Sparks, MAry Higgins CLark and Jodi Picoult. HTH
No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency-by Alexander McCall Smith
One Thousand White Women -by Jim Fergus
Three Cups of Tea-Greg Mortensen
I love Maeve Binchy books. Plus right now I am reading “The Beekeepers Apprentice” by Laurie King. It’s a Sherlock Holmes book, and so far really fun.
Not new, but The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd is good. A couple of new ones on my list: Song Yet Sung by James McBride, Little Heathens by Mildred Armstrong Kalish (nonfiction).
I found your Web page blog hopping. I love your photography!
Thankful for All Things….
Peony in Love…
Snow Flower and the Secret Fan…
I just read The Last Chinese Chef, and liked it immensely. If you’re a foodie, it’ll be amazing…
Secret life of bees, twilight series, the year of pleasures, the lottery, love walked in, the giver, princess academy, enna burning, goose girl, time traveler’s wife…I have shelves and shelves of books I love. if you’ve already read all of these let me know…I can get you more…
