Baby Hungry.

I can’t help it! I think it has to do with my baby going to first grade. I’ve tried to pretend like he’s just one step out of babyhood for as long as I can. But there’s just no denying it. His face is skinny. His little recess-induced monkey bar hands are tough and calloused....

Beautiful Little Missy | San Jose Child Photographer

I’ve been shooting this sweet girl since before she was born. It’s just SO much fun to watch these kids grow! Watching other people’s kids grow and change is fun and doesn’t come with the tinge of sadness that happens when your own baby gets bigger. So, bonus. Anyway… We had lots of fun.

So, I Guess I’m a Diva… (plus a beautiful family)

Tomorrow (Thursday) I’m participating in a panel discussion for the PPGBA (Professional Photographers of the Greater Bay Area)… They’re calling it a Diva Panel, and it’s a bunch of women who are photographers talking about the photography/woman thing.

Lisa Russo - Shannon, that is *so* awesome! I totally wish I could be there to hear you speak!

Andrea - Yay for being a diva!! The way I see it, a diva is a really strong woman with a ton of talent. You don’t have to have all the attitude. Go diva!

Mindy - Good for you, Shannon! That sounds like a great opportunity. Please let us know how it goes. Beautiful photos, too. I love that wooden bowl/thing the baby is in! Reminds me of some of the pieces Steve brought back from Africa.
