Austin Wedding Photographer Shannon Cunningham

Phew!

2009 is coming to a close today and it has been a whirlwind year for me both professionally and personally. I shot more weddings and met more sweet newborns, newly engaged couples and fun families than I ever have. 

I worked and played with some of the most amazing photographers this industry has to offer. Seriously, Austin has the most wonderful community of photographers and wedding professionals. I am so lucky to call many of them my friends. I learn from and am inspired by all of you every day!

I watched my little girl turn into a beautiful, funny, silly and smart four year old.  She and my husband are, as always, my biggest source of inspiration and the center of my life.

My work has left me satisfied and really pleased with the direction my little company is taking. It’s never been my goal to be the most famous photographer. I just want happy clients that trust me with some of the most important memories of their lives and luckily that is what I have. So for that, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You guys are the reasons I happily give up many of my Saturdays and spend late nights smiling at my computer screen while editing.

I hope that 2009 has been a great year for you and I wish you amazing happiness in 2010! I can’t wait to see what you all have in store for me.

XOXO

I hope you all are having a wonderful and joyous Christmas today!!

If you have been following my Twitter feed, I was talking about how much I love wrapping presents. I found out that lots of you do too (and lots of you also offered to let me take over your wrapping for next year – maybe I should make it a charity project), so I thought I’d show you my wrapping this year.

I like to pick a color theme. This year I wanted something chic and sleek with a pop of color. I’m sure Savannah will not appreciate it as she dives into her gifts, but I thought you all might.

I hope you have lots of presents under the tree and had a great time with your family and friends.

XOXO

Today’s post is dedicated to all photographers and anyone who has had the pleasure {and sometimes excruciating pain} of working with Photoshop. If this photo makes no sense to you – I apologize, check back tomorrow.

I snagged this off the LuxCetera Blog because it made me smile.

Hello Blog World!

Have you miseed me? Maybe a little? Well I have missed YOU!

I just wanted to pop in and let you know that YES I have been shooting like a madwoman and the unfortunate side effect of that is the Blog has been neglected lately. I have lots and lots of gorgeous weddings and babies and couples to show you…it’s just not going to be today. I promise to return next week with some Holiday Shoot information (last chance to sign up for the newsletter!) and a bunch of recent work.

In the meantime, enjoy Savannah’s take on the costume box. I believe this is Bovine Harry Potter.
