Atlanta Child Photographer | Ivy + Paige

admin — Fri, 05 Aug 2011 18:42:57 +0000

Wow! This might be the most image heavy blog post I have ever posted!! I had so much fun with these girlies that I just couldn’t narrow it down! Remember this shoot? Well, afterwards I became addicted to photographing a child who enjoys being in front of a camera so I asked PJ’s mom if she knew of anyone else who was a complete and total ham. Then she introduced me to Ivy…a total photographer’s dream!! As soon as I saw her I knew I just had to get her in front of my camera. Total natural and charming to boot!

Thank you guys so much for making the trip!! Hope to see you again soon!!! xoxo

Enjoy!

Atlanta Child Photographer | A visit with friends.

admin — Tue, 12 Oct 2010 15:42:24 +0000

I just got back from a 3 week visit to Southern California (where all of these images were taken) I spent the majority of the time with my good friends Carrie Sandoval and Brittany Woodall but on my last weekend there, Carrie and her girls drove me to Orange County to spend the weekend with the amazing Leah Zawadzki and her family. Carrie and the girls stayed and hung out that first day and we had the best time! Although we do not have many photos to prove it! The kids were far too busy swimming, playing, roasting marshmallows and eating ice cream to let us take any (and we were too busy chatting!!)

I had such a great time with Leah and crew that weekend. We went to see her oldest sing at church and then to a yummy bbq place that had the best side dishes: blueberry cornbread, sweet potato fries, fried pickles etc. I totally forgot my camera (like a dummy) so I have no documentation of that either! BUT, that night we headed to Laguna Beach to visit with friends of the Zawadzki family and that is where I captured these next images. Such a great time with great people and yummy food! Pretty cute kids too I might add

This next image is the only one we have from that day of all of the kids together. I overlooked it at first, or dismissed I should say. It is flawed, not perfectly focused, no eye contact…but I love it all the same. I am learning to accept the imperfections in life, in me, in my photographs.

And that is what this image is, perfectly imperfect.

Leah and crew: I had a wonderfully amazing time with you and I hope to visit much more often on my next trips out west. xoxo

Atlanta Child Photographer | Brothers

Boy were these two guys on the go…constantly!!! They definitely gave me a run for my money but in the end I think we really ended up with some cute shots!!! I think their mom will agree with me

Atlanta Child Photographer | Happy Mother’s Day!!!

admin — Sun, 09 May 2010 18:21:51 +0000

I took these photos back in February as a special Mother’s Day surprise for my sweet, sweet mom. These are all 4 of her grandchildren. The first shot is pretty much one of the only shots we have of the 4 of them together and she was absolutely overjoyed when we presented her with a 24×36 canvas of it. There were tears, big ones. It made my day that I could do that for her. She means so very much to me. I really have no words to express how much. But a picture is worth 1000 words, right? So…Happy Mother’s Day mom. Enjoy my 4000 words!!!!

Atlanta Child Photographer | California Vacation Part II (a surprise visit)

admin — Fri, 19 Mar 2010 17:25:33 +0000

I am thoroughly enjoying my visit here in California and trying to soak up every minute!! Earlier in the week one of my closest friends, Julia Franzosa, drove down to Fallbrook (where I have been staying with my friend Carrie) from Santa Barbara for a surprise visit!! Sneaky girl, I had NO idea she was coming! What an awesome treat that was. I have really missed her. We had such a great time hanging out, chatting, going to the movies…just like old times. We even got to photograph Carrie’s 3 girlies together (as seen above). I had a blast and can’t wait to see her again. Thanks so much for making the trip, friend!!! Until next time…

Atlanta Child Photographer | California Vacation Part I (Lily Analicious)

I am back in California after 5 long months of being away. Granted, I am only here for a short 2 week stay but I will take what I can get Lily was so good to me the other day and let me take lots of pretty pictures of her. It only cost me one after dinner lollipop I have really missed my friends and this beautiful California weather. Hopefully, I will be back here one day…for good!

Atlanta Children’s Photographer | Little Charmer

I have been photographing this gorgeous little dude every year around his birthday for the past 3 years. This year we almost missed it! I managed to get a few shots of him so his mom could have a shot of her little 6 year old just a few months before he turns 7. Enjoy your sneak peek!
