Welcome to my blog..... This is where you will find sneak peeks available to my clients, promotions, and hopefully get to know me better with pictures of my spunky family from time to time.
A little about me...... My name is Shannon. I am a mother to two wonderful kids and a wife to the most amazing man. I am so happy to be at this point in my life. I have always had a passion for photography. After having my children my passion grew stronger trying to document every first. There's something that is so great to capture someone being their true self. Documenting every moment and being able to treasure it til the end of time. I am lucky enough to love what I get to do every. single. day!! I am an on-location, natural light photographer specializing in fun, fresh, modern and creative images of maternity, newborn and baby. My style is very natural and sessions are never rushed.
Please sit back get comfy and enjoy my blog!!

Hi Everyone!
I just wanted to let everyone know I am back and refreshed from a very long vacation. I really didn’t take a vacation so to speak but just took some time off to have a little fun with my kiddos and hubby. Doing photography which I love can also mean many many many hours in front of the computer and getting orders ready, which don’t get me wrong I love doing it. But in return it takes many hours away from my family. So I took the past 3 months off to just chill, laugh and simply have fun with my family. I am officially back to start my 2010 sessions. To kick off my return I am offering $25.00 off all session fees for the month of April. Please call or send an email through my site on the contact page if you would like to book a session.
Also at this time I am only taking sessions for Maternity and Newborns.
I hate to even have this problem but for some reason a lot of post from my blog are gone. I’m not really sure how this happened but several of my past post have just vanished. I am working and will be working on getting my blog post back up so you might see some changes going on in the next couple of weeks.
Just a Spring Snap for you to enjoy!
Hope everyone has a great day!!!!
Thanks
Shannon
The Mayonnaise Jar
When things in your life seem almost too much to handle,
When 24 hours in a day is not enough;
remember the mayonnaise jar and 2 cups of coffee.
A professor stood before his philosophy class
and had some items in front of him.
When the class began, wordlessly,
he picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar
and start to fill it with golf balls .
He then asked the students if the jar was full.
They agreed that it was.
The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured
it into the jar. He shook the jar lightly.
The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls.
He then asked the students again if the jar was full.
They agreed it was.
The professor next picked up a box of sand
and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else
He asked once more if the jar was full.
The students responded with an unanimous ’yes..’
The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the table
and poured the entire contents into the jar, effectively
filling the empty space between the sand.
The students laughed.
‘Now,’ said the professor, as the laughter subsided,
‘I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life.
The golf balls are the important things - God, family,
children, health, friends, and favorite passions
Things that if everything else was lost
and only they remained, your life would still be full.
The pebbles are the things that matter like your job, house, and car.
The sand is everything else –
The small stuff.
‘If you put the sand into the jar first,’ he continued,
‘there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls.
The same goes for life..
If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff,
You will never have room for the things that are
important to you.
So…
Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.
Play with your children.
Take time to get medical checkups..
Take your partner out to dinner.
There will always be time
to clean the house and fix the dripping tap.
‘Take care of the golf balls first –
The things that really matter.
Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.’
One of the students raised her hand
and inquired what the coffee represented.
The professor smiled.
‘I’m glad you asked’.
It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem,
there’s always room for a couple of cups of coffee with a friend.’
Please share this with other “Golf Balls”

OH my goodness all the hair!! 8 day old Finley was nothing more than pure sweetness.
