sneak peek {BLOG}

blogging coming soon….

Shawna — Fri, 21 Jan 2011 17:20:08 +0000

Hello all….I know, I know…blogging has gotten really S L O W….. I had many clients to take care of up thru the end of the year and getting products out to everyone. Then I took a much needed break, because well, this industry is about being creative and when you don’t have time to rejuvenate….it becomes very challenging to squeeze those creative juices out. I stopped blogging so much in the fall and was more focused on making sure everyone had their physical product instead of just a little sneak peek here. I know there is much gratification in taking peeks here, but I am finding that I will be changing things up on the blog for 2011 and will be blogging past sessions instead of utilizing as a teaser.

So here’s a little peek of some to come….

email issues

Hello All & Happy New Year!

It has been a wonderful 2010 & I appreciate all of my wonderful clients.

I wanted to let everyone know that for two weeks, my email has been wacky. If you have sent me an email and have received no response, then it most likely is lost in cyber space, because at this time I have responded to everyone. So please send again if you are waiting for an answer from me, because it is completely random on what has gone through and what hasn’t.

I have fixed the issue – so moving forward there should be no missed communications .

Well…well…well…look what we have here!!!!

Yes, Dana and Kevin who just celebrated their one year anniversary on December 5th, 2010 are expecting and are due at any moment!!! Look how incredibly adorable Dana is….simply beautiful!

If you’d like a reminder of their wedding, click here. It really is incredibly special to document their wedding and then to be able to document these special milestones for their family. You can see how much fun they have together as they giggle at one another & I’d have to say Kevin is one proud papa to be. I mean he is just soooo happy, don’t get me wrong, Dana is too….it’s just sooo obvious how super happy Kevin is & cute too . Enjoy! & fingers crossed there will be some exciting news tomorrow on the arrival of baby….thank you from the bottom of my heart for having me document these special times.

blogging break

As I sit here with numerous layers on and see the lake freezing….with snow sticking to the ground, this image completely warms me up! I definitely have taken a break from blogging to get through the fall rush. I am not quite through it, but am definitely seeing a light at the end of the tunnel. I am super excited to be receiving products for the holidays for everyone & seeing the excitement as everyone picks up their gifts for family and friends.

Thank you for your patience…I definitely have been posting more over on my Facebook page, so if you aren’t a friend yet, please go on over and “like” it to keep more up to date on sessions.

Stay tuned for some more blogging of sessions from the summer and fall.

Elizabeth Ann & Tyson’s wedding album design

Shawna — Fri, 08 Oct 2010 22:30:15 +0000

This wedding was extremely special for me. The bride is my 1st-cousin-once-removed (in other words, my cousin’s daughter). It was an occupational hazard for me to be photographing, because I kept tearing up, I couldn’t believe Elizabeth Ann was all grown up. Chad Franz partnered up to photograph this wedding with me, which was fabulous, because then I could visit with family at the reception. The wedding took place at the beautiful Glenmoor Country Club in Canton, Ohio. It was so nice because the hotel was connected and almost everyone stayed onsite. The wedding took place in the chapel & then it was transformed into the reception and dining hall. It was such a unique venue and everything was absolutely gorgeous.

The flowers were done by Neil Leeson
