time for a change

August 22, 2011

hello beloved friends! 

I have some big news, something that's been in the works for awhile now and that I'm so excited to share. Beloved Photography will now be known at Shannon Yau Photography. Why the change? You'll find the brief answer on my new blog (here!) but I will say that it was time for change. I will forever call this photography venture of mine an adventure and with that comes growth and change. 

Beloved will always hold a soft spot in my heart but I'm so excited to share this new identity. It's beautifully crafted and feels so me. :)

So please go check out the new www.shannonyau.com and let me know what you think.

Oh, and don't forget to update your bookmarks!

Website facelift!

January 26, 2011

pretty much the day after I launched my website I started thinking of new ideas. I'm still coming up with those ideas but they take time and $$ to become a reality, neither of which I have an abundance of these days. In the meantime little ol' belovedphoto.com just got a facelift! She's a liitle bit prettier and a lot more up to date and should hold me over until beloved 2.0 becomes a reality :)

And because posts are kind of boring without photos I thought I'd share two. This adorable little man was first introduced to the blog a little less than a year ago, here he was then...

and now...

Isn't he adorable?!!! Just another reminder of how fast this past year has gone by.  

oh, and back to the website.. what do you think?

Photo Extravaganza!

December 16, 2010

It's time.. dum da da dum... for the 2010 photo extravaganza! These are a selection of my favourites from the past year. Some have appeared on the blog before and some are brand new. You might look at some and think "what's so good about that one", the answer is I don't know, I just like them! Going through these made me realize just how crazy a year it's been. I am so unbelievably grateful to all my clients, for trusting me to help tell their story. It was a year of ups and downs, many happy dances and many meltdowns. At some points I felt like I was spending more time with my computer than people. I cried. alot. but I laughed alot more and that's why it's worth it. 

2010 was an incredible year for beloved but I've learned some things and I'll take that into 2011 and make that an even better year. 

Even if you don't have a blog, take a moment to reflect on how far you've come this year, you might be amazed at what you've done. This is also the perfect spot to lead into my 2011 List Post.. which will be coming soon! :)

thanks for the love girls!! So SO appreciated.

ps. Kyle was confused what dum da da dum means.. to clarify it's the sound you make before announcing something like an extravaganza!
