A Fall Session With Some of My Favorites | Atlanta Family Photographer

It’s always the best when you get to photograph friends who are like family. Friends who you’ve known for what seems like ever, who’ve been in each others’ weddings, whose kids are bffs since birth. These are some of those friends, and this was one of my favorite sessions of theirs yet. We played and laughed and nobody cried, so that’s always a win. 😉  Also, I can’t get over little Miss B’s curls… and sass! So much personality in that little body. Her big brother is also destined to be a heartbreaker with those eyes. Good luck, Shannon and David — you’re in for it with these two cuties! 🙂

Fall Mini Session Highlights, Round 2 | Atlanta Family Photographer

Next up, a new (to me) spot this fall! This sprawling green space is definitely not new to many photographers in the area, as evidenced by the large amounts of people shooting there each time I went this fall (ha!), but these days, it’s hard to find a true hidden gem unless it’s private property. So we deal with it and work around the dozens of other families also having their fall photos done… and you’d never know from these photos that there was anyone in sight! I fell in love with this place the second I got there while scouting locations earlier this summer. I love that you can shoot in a small garden, move over to an old barn, and then take a quick walk through the woods to the most massive field of tall grasses and random wild flowers. And if you go the opposite direction from these spots, there’s the most stunning old oak tree and more tall grasses as far as the eye can see. A photographer’s dream. Then you can grab shakes at Freddy’s across the street — the perfect bribe to get those kiddos and husbands smiling! 🙂

Fall Mini Session Highlights, Round 1 | Atlanta Family Photographer

Wow, fall ended just as quickly as it started! It was a whirlwind again this year, wondering if a certain illness would postpone or cancel a lot of sessions (thankfully it did not!), trying to balance my family life with three small girls and a very busy fall workload, and just trying to stay present and enjoy life along with this business that I’m so blessed to have. I got to connect with so many of my favorite client families as well as meet several new ones, which I always enjoy. It was exhausting, but it was well worth it. I didn’t have any extra time for blogging or sharing much about my sessions in the midst of it all, so I’m going to share some favorites from each set of mini sessions that I did around the city. This spot is a very favorite of mine in the heart of the city, and you’d never know it was there, because it’s tucked into a neighborhood and not even very noticeable from the street. It always seems to be filled with lush greenery year-round and it just such a pretty place to photograph families. I have a lot of favorites for each family, so it’s a little long. 🙂 Enjoy!

A Family Milestone Session at Park Studios | Atlanta Family & Child Photographer

My favorite niece turned two back in February and my favorite nephew (sensing a trend here…) turned four in April, so it was time for a milestone session to document these wild and crazy kiddos at the sweet ages they are. We have traditionally shot at their house several times, and I love the familiarity of that. But this time, we went a different route and chose to shoot at the lovely Park Studios in Buckhead. I adore this space with its white walls and floors, high ceilings, neutral furnishings, and complete privacy for my clients to just be themselves. I had so much fun chasing two of my favorite little people around, and we ended their milestone session with some cake pop bribes (I’m never above a bribe for photos). I have way too many favorites, so you’re just going to have to see them all! 🙂
