five on friday | the random edition

Friday, February 12th, 2010

Yes, very random today! It’s Friday!! Today I dropped off lots of beautiful albums to girls that have a great gift for their hubby’s! Next week I’ll share some pics after they get their surprise…don’t want to be ruining any beforehand:)

ok. randomness. and go.

1. Does anyone else want to see this movie, Valentine’s Day? I am a sucker for movies like this.  Ones with lots of storylines that merge together, like Love Actually.  Love it! We are going to have movie night tonight too and watch Couple’s Retreat, looks hilarious!

2. nanernanernaner…I have a secret! I kind of fell like Apple or something right before Mac World… in a very minuscule way of course :) I have awesomeness coming up and can’t wait to share it but sadly, I will have to wait until next week.  Actually, lets go ahead and say it will be debuted on next weeks Five on Friday.  YAY!

3. So, if anything were to be my first love (besides God and fam of course) it would be missions.  More so that photography even but I don’t think one could really exist in my world without the other.  I crave missions, as in, NEED it, must have it.  I crave the culture and people groups, seeing the world as God see’s it.  Its the sociologist in me I guess.  I’ve been in a funk lately, as in, MUST do something more! So, a few things planned here in the next year but until then I’m finding little ways to settle my craving.  Because lets face it, the little ways are sometimes more important that the big ways.  Next week our family is cooking for 150 homeless, would you want to join me? (call me or email me if you do!) I would LOVE to have a few of you join, help cook, shop for food, however you want to give.   Increase your craving for changing the world. One little way at a time.

4. Speaking of, does anyone know someone with a 2 year old or younger that could use some clothes.  I have a couple bags of 2T and some smaller that I would love to give to someone who really needs it.  I don’t mind shipping.  Let me know if you know of anyone:)

5. Well, this 5 on friday is turning out to be more about missions than I originally thought! So, alot of my missions travel was taken with my SLR film camera..  I am finally going to get some of them transferred over to digital. I can’t wait to see them again and be able to share:)

five on friday | the “upcoming” post

Friday, December 4th, 2009

knoxville's best wedding photographerSo much going on here! It’s supposed to be the slow season coming up after all the weddings in October and Christmas portraits but it seems like we are just gearing up for some awesome December/January happenings here at Shannon Kelley Photography! So, I thought I would dedicate this five to the upcoming stuff so you guys know what you have to look forward to!

If you got the newsletter, you probably have a heads up on a couple of things plus some other juicy fun stuff. Go sign up so you don’t miss out next time!

1. Big fun announcement of awesomeness next week for the ladies! (well, and men too…we’ll make sure not to leave you completely out!) I’m so excited about this and we are rapping up details on Monday so we’ll send out an email to those on the newsletter list for first dibs so be sure to go sign up!

2. Christmas is coming! Every year we, as a family, try to do some good for the world in our little way. Whether its spending Christmas Eve with those on the street or handing out Christmas cookies…nothing too extravagant but I like to hope/pray it impacts someone in a good way. This year I want to include you! Do you have any ideas? Would you be interested in helping us do something physically or would you rather give money/items/support? Or would you rather just read about what we do? :) I have a couple ideas but wanted to see what you thought and if there was any interest.

3. Woohooo!!!! My favorite time of year on the blog is almost here!!! Picture of the YEAR!!! I have the hard part of narrowing it down to 12 then you will have the harder job of picking your fave. We’re are doing it a little different this year to make it fun fun fun!!!! (read on to #4 for detailed funness!)

4. This year we are having 12 days of PIXMAS! (don’t hate on the corny title!)

-From Dec 11th through Dec 23rd we will be announcing (in no particular order) one nominee per day with a little background story on the picture as well!
-Then on Dec 26th we will start the voting. For you nominee’s, this will give you Christmas to mention to your fam and friends to vote for you…just giving you a strategic hint:)
-Voting will run through December and the winner gets a full session in 2010 and a big ol canvas of their picture! Plus, all nominee’s get a mini session in 2010 so its a win-win!

Now, who is excited!!!!????

5. Speaking of voting…I was nominated for best wedding photographer in Knoxville. To whoever nominated me, a huge thanks. You made my day. Seriously. So, if you haven’t read it on facebook please go vote! Pretty please with sugar on top! You can vote multiple times every day through December! I’m thinking some fun celebration on the blog if we win, don’t you think? Win or not though, love all you guys and your support! It means more to me than you will ever know! knoxvilles best wedding photographer
