Atlanta Family Photographer | A Mother’s Day gift.

These are my older brother’s 3 children. I am sure you have seen them before if you ever visit my blog but this is probably the first time any of you have seen my brother! He isn’t a huge fan of having his picture taken – I mean seriously, you would think he is being tortured. So, naturally, I was a bit nervous (and maybe dreading it a bit) when my mom told me they were coming up for a visit and all she wanted for Mother’s Day was a picture of his whole family. My brother was none too thrilled either when he heard the news. Ha. He gave me about 5 minutes and I couldn’t be happier with the resulting image. Did I actually capture my brother pleasantly smiling and looking into the camera?  Yep, I think I did.

Happy Mother’s Day (and early birthday) Mom!!!

Atlanta Family Photographer | On the move.


Little Daniel’s mom contacted me a few months ago looking to have a family photo shoot before they made their big move from Atlanta to Costa Rica! We chose Piedmont Park (our version of Central Park) because we wanted to make sure we captured quintessential Atlanta — where they met, fell in love and started their family. We had a blast. And though mom described Daniel as a quiet observer he had us running laps all over the park!

Thank you guys so much for choosing me to photograph this special time in your lives. I hope you are enjoying the sun and sand in Costa Rica. I am more than happy to fly there for our next shoot. ;)

Atlanta Family Photographer | Spring mini sessions are here!!

 

After what has seemed like a ridiculously long winter, I think that Spring is finally upon us!!  I couldn’t be more excited for warm, beautiful weather and it is the perfect time to update your family photographs. E-mail me today to reserve your date!

The Happy Traveler | My little friend, PJ | Atlanta Children’s Photographer

Oh, this kid, seriously. She is absolutely one of the coolest kids around and so much fun! While I was in CA a few weeks ago I spent an afternoon with PJ and her sweet  Mom in downtown San Diego. We ran all over  – shooting in really fun locations with PJ in the coolest clothes. I swear, she has a better wardrobe that anyone I know. I am jealous…of an 8 year old! Ha!

Thanks for hanging out guys. I can’t wait until next time!!

Atlanta Children’s Photographer | Gunnar-Bear

For those of you who frequent my blog, you  probably recognize this handsome guy. I have been photographing Gunnar every year since he was 4 years old. He turns 10 in just a few days. That just seems crazy to me. How is it possible that the years fly by so quickly?! We ended up  including 2 of Gunnar’s pets in this session and he was stoked! Actually, we had not intended to include his puppy, Sky, but she had other plans. :) I absolutely love the resulting images so it was fine by me!. There isn’t much that is sweeter than the love between a boy and his dog.  Wouldn’t you agree?

I will be seeing (and photographing!) this sweet family again soon when they welcome Gunnar’s new little brother this summer! I am so excited for them I could just burst.

Thanks again for choosing me, as always it was a pleasure!

The Happy Traveler | After dinner entertainment.






I’m out in California for a couple of weeks and just had  a weekend visit with my dear friend Leah and her awesome family.  On my first night there we went out to dinner at an amazing restaurant called Gabbi’s in downtown Orange. Seriously the best shrimp enchiladas and margaritas EVER! But I digress…

After our yummy meal we popped in to the army/navy store where twins, Kate and Joe, saw the hats and sunglasses they just HAD to have! They were feeling super cool so naturally I had to stop them and take a few photos along with their big brother,Ben. I just love these guys — such characters!

Stay tuned for more from my visit with them. :)

 

Atlanta Family Photographer | Happy Easter (a little late)

I hope everyone is enjoying the start of Spring and the warm weather that seems to have FINALLY set in! I had a great Easter with my family including good food, egg hunting in the rain, lots of relaxing on the front porch, and also lots of me trying to get a few photos of my newly walking, quick moving nephew! All in all a perfect day! As a photographer I always end up behind the camera at most family functions so I try to make it a point to hand the camera over (usually to my brother-in-law) and sneak into a few shots with my mom and sister. I’m always so happy that I did. Make sure that all of you (photographers, moms, dads, etc) try to jump to the other side of the lens once in awhile as well. :)

How was your Easter?

Atlanta Newborn Photographer | A New Little Valentine

This sweet, little girl absolutely melted my heart. Her Mom, Dad and big Brother were pretty fond of her as well! I swear, she barely made even the slightest peep and was just the perfect model. I had so much fun with her.

Thank you for allowing me into your home to share in this beautiful new gift. How perfect that she was born on a day when love is so celebrated. <3 :)

I hope to see you all again very soon!

Atlanta Baby Photographer | Happy 1st Birthday, Keegan!

My sweet nephew Keegan is 1! I know people always say this but WOW that year seriously flew by! I can hardly believe it. My sister put together a great party with every little detail planned out. We kept hearing from the guests that this was the best 1 year old birthday party they had ever been to. :) Maybe my sister has a future in party planning.

We love you so very much, Keegan, and we can’t wait to see what is in store for year 2!! xoxo
