Awhile ago, Shannon and I swapped taking pictures of each others’ families.  It was a huge treat for me…first because I never get in front of the camera and second because Shannon is sooooo talented!  The inspiration for the whole thing was a wall in our bedroom.  I put up the ledge shelfing and then wanted to arrange some mounted pictures (unframed) in various sizes all overlapping…a la Pottery Barn.  My room is all done in various shades of grey and olive, so I wanted to keep the coloring simple–and able to blend in with everything else.  I realized that I only had pictures of the kids and since it’s OUR room, I wanted pictures of US.  Enter Shannon…

Poor Shannon has been waiting for ages to see these (because we each editing our own pictures).  Sorry Shannon!  But, she was beyond amazing and I love the way she arranged us and interacted with the kids.  It’s hard to get a family of 5 all looking decent!

These are the only ones I have edited right now, but I’m so excited to go back through all the great pictures she took.  Now I’ll have so many choices for my wall ledge!

Shannon…thank you again SO much for giving us a little piece of history to look back on. 🙂
