Catherine’s 1st Birthday Party – Buckhead | Atlanta Childrens Photographer

Children, Events, Families

This sweet girl turned one in early July and had the sweetest ice cream-themed birthday party to match! Catherine’s parents and all of her family and friends gathered together on a beautiful Saturday to celebrate her first year of life, and what a wonderful party it was! Ice cream cones, yummy snacks, giant balloons, great tunes, and, of course, a little cake smash for the birthday girl. She was dainty with her cake smashing, but adorable nonetheless!

I love the opportunity to photograph parties like this… it’s so fun to be a fly on the wall, capturing this great big love that so many people have for the itty bitty guest of honor. Happy 1st birthday, Catherine!

Suenaga Family – Smyrna | Atlanta Family Photographer

Children, Families

I’ve been photographing the Suenaga family’s growth since their son was just a few years old, so it was such a joy to meet their newest addition last month! Cade is such a proud big brother — he doted on Harper, held her and kissed her throughout our session. (Insert heart eyes emoji here!) Miss Harper is already 4 months old and has fabulous hair and the cutest little rolls. Cade is headed into Kindergarten this fall, and he told me all about his favorite super hero, The Incredible Hulk. I love getting to photograph my client families again and again and see how their children have changed. It’s kind of like visiting with old friends you don’t see often… each time you’re together, you just pick back up where you left off. Enjoy these highlights from our Smyrna park session.

Wynn Family – Roswell | Atlanta Family Photographer

Children, Couples, Families

I’ve been working with the Wynn family for a few years now, and I always love seeing them for their next seasonal session. This time around, they invited Tyler’s family to join them before his sister’s family moves out of the country. We tried out a new location, which has become one of my new favorites, and I can’t wait to shoot there again. It’s such a joy to watch clients and their families grow and change with the seasons. On my way to their session, I was thinking back to the first time I met the Wynns. Catherine was just a baby — now she has pigtails, and her big sister Julia is going into 1st grade this year. I’m so grateful for these wonderful return clients who also become friends. Enjoy these summer session highlights.

Rhys’ 1st Birthday Party – Mableton | Atlanta Childrens Photographer

Children, Events, Families

This adorable little guy turned one earlier this month, and I had the pleasure of photographing his party with all of his nearest and dearest family and friends. You would never know that Rhys made his entrance into the world a whopping ten weeks early; he is truly a miracle baby for his parents… and he’s also such a little flirt! 😉 I had the best time getting to know his parents, as well as his grandparents, cousins, and friends who came out to celebrate his first year. They jumped in the bounce house, blew bubbles, and even had a surprise appearance by a very slithery party guest at the back of the yard (thank goodness it didn’t decide to come any closer for cake!). Rhys was a trooper with his cake smash and ended up completely covered in blue icing, so I’ll say it was a success. Happy 1st birthday, Rhys! I hope this year brings you and your family all sorts of new adventures!

Jack’s Newborn Session – Marietta | Atlanta Newborn Photographer

Children, Families

Meet Jack! He is simply precious, from his pretty head of hair to his sweet disposition. I’ve known his mama, Meredith, for a few years now, and she truly is as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside. Her maternity session was so dreamy and gorgeous, and their newborn session did not disappoint, either. Jack’s nursery is bright and airy and has too many lovely details to mention. I loved the framed name prints over his crib and the giant metal basket holding the many swaddle blankets they have been gifted. And that industrial light/fan combo? Swoon. I could have hung out in this serene space all day. Big fur sister Penny was so gentle and sweet during our session, and I just adore the shots we got her of with her new brother. Enjoy a look at Jack’s newborn portraits.
