Saturday Sweetness: Vacation via iPhone

We are back from vacation and I am sorting through the photos I took on the ‘big’ camera and on film.

I love my fancy cameras, but something I love having at my fingertips is my iPhone for quick snaps. Here is a small collage of my vacation as seen through the iPhone. All of these were taken with the Hipstamatic and Shake It apps.

Reminder: Out of the Office

Just a little reminder to let you know I’m still out of the office.

Calls and emails will be returned in earnest starting July 26th.

Thank you so much for your patience while my family and I spend some much needed time together.

Also, for your viewing pleasure – what’s the best part about hotel rooms when you’re four? Why all the jumping on the bed you could ask for of course!

Saturday Sweetness: The return!

The return of Saturday Sweetness posts! This one is not about food, but something equally as adorable….Doggies!

Emerge Contest: Austin Wedding Photographer

A few months ago, I entered a super fun contest called ‘Emerge’. It’s different than ones I’ve entered in the past as you were required to enter 10 images from the same wedding in each category rather than a single image. The point was to craft a story with your entry.

I found that intriguing because that’s what I strive for when I’m shooting a wedding. I’m certainly not a strict photojournalist – I love fun portraits and amazing shoe shots and cool ring photos. However, preserving the story of one of the most important days in a couple’s life is  something that is very dear to me.

So anyway, long story short, I won ‘Honorable Mention’ in the ‘Venue’ category. I didn’t take the Grand Prize, but I’ll take 4th. I’m pretty proud of fourth.

I chose Amanda and Timur’s purple Laguna Gloria Wedding as my entry for this category. This was a gorgeous wedding made so beautiful with Amanda’s vision and the awesome planning and execution of a great team of vendors including Prive Floral and Becky Brock with BZ Events. Plus, Laguna Gloria was a natural choice for a ‘venue’ category’.

Here are the images.

Out of the Office

It’s vacation time at Shannon Cunningham Photography!!!!

The family and I are headed out of town for some recharging. I’m planning on lounging and some sand castle building with the little person.

**This means that I will be out of the office from Monday July 12 and I

will begin returning calls and emails again on Monday July 26th**

I will probably have some limited access to email and will try to check it a few times, but in general, there are no photographic emergencies, so I appreciate your patience about my response time.

Due to blog magic, I will have some posts for you to look over while I’m gone, so please keep checking back. In the meantime, Aloha!

Saturday Sweetness: Sunday Cheesy Goodness Edition

I love cheese. All kinds – the soft, the sharp, the stinky. If it’s been aged in a cave, I am all in.

So you can imagine my glee when I found out about Antonelli’s Cheese Shop in Hyde Park. It’s such a delightful little spot and I am there at least once a week.

Mmmm…cheese.

Happy Sunday everyone.
