Perfectly Delicious Baby

I’m soooo behind on blogging! This session was from last July. I’m really want to share (and show that I really do work!) so I’m really going to try my best to catch up. I think part of my problem is wanting to post too many pictures, so blogging takes more time than I can...

Kristen - Okay, now I can die a happy woman… I have seen the cutest baby alive. Shhhhh, don’t tell my kids. (Ha ha. JK. I love my kids!)

Just one for now…

I love trees. And people. Especially people in love.

Fall Mini Sessions and New Wedding Website!

I’m in the heart of busy season right now. In fact, I have slots for only two more regular sessions before the holiday deadline. If you were thinking of booking a session for holiday cards and gifts, you’d better do it now! But wait… there’s more… I’ve planned one day for mini-sessions! Friday, November 6....

Kristen - I am SO darn glad to see you are still ‘creating’ (like scrapbooking)! Those cards are DARLING! You have such a great talent!!! I swear going on a trip to San Jose just for your 15-min mini session would be SO. WORTH. IT. Now, how can I convince my Hubs? Any thoughts? ;)

Laurissa - Are you doing any mini sessions in Utah? Our Sears family portrait is really grating on me.

what to do…

Work on a new website or newsletter or put up one of the many blog entries I need to put up? I think I’ll just look at this image from my trip to Lake Tahoe and pretend like I’m on vacation for a bit.

Andrea - Dreamy. I could use some more Lake Tahoe right about now! Complete with an early morning motorcycle ride, right? :)

Kristen - While I am an avid advocate for more Shannon Montez blog updates, I have to say, do what makes you feel fulfilled. If it’s creative play or work, do it. I am just happy to hear from you once in a while. Your posts are lovely, as are your pics. But you knew that, right?

Never been to Lake Tahoe. Something tells me I am missing out. BIG TIME.
