Emma’s Newborn Session – Smyrna | Atlanta Newborn Photographer

Oct 28, 2016melissahayesphotoatl@gmail.comChildren, Families

Oh, Emma! What a beautiful, sweet, sleepy baby she was during our session. And how precious is big sis Daisy? I’ve never worked with such a cooperative, gentle puppy sibling. I heard that dad had been practicing with her for these photos, and it paid off! 🙂 Emma’s parents are dear friends of ours, and it was such an honor to be asked to capture this special time as they start their family. I look forward to watching our girls grow up together!

Ellis’ Newborn Session – Buckhead | Atlanta Newborn Photographer

Oct 13, 2016melissahayesphotoatl@gmail.comChildren, Families

Baby Ellis was born on August 1st, and I still can’t get over his amazing head of hair! His faux hawk was perfectly styled for his newborn session, and he was an absolute angel, even when his puppy siblings were licking his head. I adore the M family — they have been dear friends of mine for over a decade, and it’s been amazing to witness them becoming parents and bringing this new life into the world. Ellis is so loved — and envied for his hair, too! 😉

Sadie Kate’s 2 Year Milestone Session – Johns Creek | Atlanta Children’s Photographer

Oct 10, 2016melissahayesphotoatl@gmail.comChildren, Families

It’s hard to believe another year has come and gone and that Sadie Kate is two! I had the pleasure of photographing these friends’ sweet girl several times during her first year, and it’s always amazing how much they grow during that time. Having not seen SK since her 1 year session, this was quite the change! I can’t get over her head of blonde curls. And she had us all laughing over her marshmallow bribe, which she insisted on needing more of for her teacups. 🙂 Smart little lady! Here’s to a year of adventure and laughter for this sweet family!

Bradley’s 1st Birthday Party – Buckhead | Atlanta Family Photographer

Oct 5, 2016melissahayesphotoatl@gmail.comChildren, Events, Families

Bradley turned 1 a couple weeks ago, and he had the most fun Auburn football-themed birthday party ever! His darling mama Savannah is an expert party planner, and he and his big brother are quite lucky to be the recipients of her amazing skills! Every little detail was thought of, including toilet papered trees, a mini Toomers Corner lemonade stand, tiger cake pops, and football party favors for the kids. My husband went to the Auburn game that day, and when I later showed him photos from the party, he was kind of jealous that he wasn’t there instead. 😉

Turning one is such a big milestone for baby, but more so for mom and dad. The day was filled with laughter and love from all of their friends and family who came out to celebrate Bradley and his sweet family — all decked out in their game day best! It was an honor to be given the opportunity to document this special event for the B family, and it was such an awesome day. Happy 1st birthday, little guy!

Ben’s 1 Year Milestone Session – Cumming | Atlanta Children’s Photographer

Oct 4, 2016melissahayesphotoatl@gmail.comChildren, Families

Mister Ben turned one this summer, and his parents invited me up to their beautiful new home at Lake Lanier for his photo session. They hadn’t even moved in yet, which worked out nicely because it gave me a lot of blank canvases as backdrops… a photographer’s dream! 🙂 Ben is such a happy little guy, and he was one of the best cake-smashers I’ve seen yet! It looked delicious, so I’m not surprised that he dove right in. His bright blue eyes and sweet smile are contagious, and I look forward to seeing how much he grows!
