Meredith’s Maternity Session – McFarlane Park | Marietta Maternity Photographer

1 CommentChildren, Families

I’ve known Meredith for a few years now, and she emulates beauty, both inside and out — and her pregnancy is no different! She is quite the business woman/girl boss — she owns two boutiques in Atlanta, and because of that, her style is so unique and fun. I knew I’d be in for a treat when she asked me to do maternity portraits for her! We met at a neat little park in their neighborhood just before sunset, and I could not be happier with how these turned out. There’s something so ethereal and enchanted about her look in combination with the surroundings of the park — especially that giant tree we found! It was an absolute pleasure capturing this exciting time for Meredith and Rob as they anticipate the arrival of their first born (a boy, if you couldn’t tell by her sweet blue dress!).

 

Charlie’s 1 Year Milestone Session – Morningside | Atlanta Children’s Photographer

Children, Families

I’ve been spending time with Charlie’s family since he was in his mommy’s belly, and it’s been such a joy to see him grow over the past year! Being a part of a baby’s first year and getting to watch them grow from a tiny newborn to a fun, happy toddler is one of my favorite things about being a family photographer. There are so many milestones reached throughout that first year, and I think that turning “one” is the most exciting of them all. Charlie is a calm and happy little guy, and he was just learning to walk on his own when I photographed his one year session last month. He was also an expert cake smasher, which I can totally relate to. 🙂 Happy 1st birthday, Charlie!

Leighton’s 18 Month Milestone Session – Whittier Mill Park | Atlanta Children’s Photographer

Children, Families

Our darling girl is 18 months today — halfway to being a two year old! I just can’t believe it. We went to Whittier Mill Park, one of my favorite hidden gems for photo sessions, to get some fun shots of how much our girl has changed since her one year session in September (and our family holiday photos in October). I think the most noticeable difference is that she’s finally getting some hair! Hallelujah! The park is tucked back into a neighborhood just a few minutes from our house, and we love to visit the playground here when the weather is nice. She is getting so brave — climbing the stairs on the jungle gym all by herself and choosing to slide down the biggest slide there. And those baby blues… they’re going to make a lot of trouble for us one day, I’m sure. Her personality is growing by the day, and we love her more than we ever thought possible. Enjoy!

Gavin’s Newborn Session – Avondale Estates | Atlanta Newborn Photographer

Children, Families

The B family has recently grown by one… an adorable, squishy little guy named Gavin! I had the honor of photographing big sister Tyler a couple years ago after she was born, and it’s amazing to now see her doting on her little brother. This session was sweet and happy, filled with laughs and some jumping on the bed — and of course lots of snuggles with baby boy. Congrats on your beautiful new addition, Dana and Stephen! He’s perfect.

Ellis’ 6 Month Milestone Session – Lenox Park | Atlanta Children’s Photographer

Children, Families

Is Ellis not one of the most precious, cherub-like babies you’ve ever seen?? He has big blue eyes, the most amazing blonde hair (that is usually in a self-imposed mohawk), and is the smiliest little guy, as you can see from the photos. I met up with his parents, who have been dear friends of mine for many years now, at Lenox Park in the heart of Buckhead. Adam used to live in an apartment across from the park (with my husband) and Ashley used to run there, so it was a very fitting spot for some family portraits. You’d never know that Ellis didn’t nap that morning and only snuck in a few minutes of snoozing on the way to the session. He is just such a joy to everyone he meets! We had such a fun morning together, and I am so excited to share these images with you guys. I mean, who can resist a baby boy in suspenders or a bow tie?
