Baby C’s Newborn Session – Smyrna | Atlanta Newborn Photographer

Children, Families

I met baby C’s dad in college while studying abroad one summer, but I haven’t seen him in probably 10 years. So needless to say, it was a blast from the past when he and his wife asked me to do their second son’s newborn photos! Baby C’s big brother was so proud and adorable, and we had a great time playing around in their shared bedroom while baby brother had his photo debut. What a fun surprise to have the honor of photographing a long-lost friend’s family so many years down the road!

Charlie’s Newborn Session – Virginia Highlands | Atlanta Newborn Photographer

Children, Families

I so enjoy having the opportunity to photograph a glowing mama-to-be and a proud daddy-to-be, but it’s even better when I finally get to capture the love between them and their sweet new baby! Caroline and John welcomed little mister Charlie in March, and what a doll he was at his newborn session. His puppy sister Abby got in on the action as well, which is always necessary when there’s a pet in the family. 🙂 It’s extra special when the parents want to include a sentimental item in their photos. In this case, a family member had made Charlie a really neat quilt featuring children’s book imagery — what a fun treasure! Welcome to the world, Charlie!

Ashley’s Maternity Session – Blowing Rock, NC | Atlanta Maternity Photographer

Adults, Families

There’s not much I enjoy more with this business than having the honor of capturing precious memories for those I love and adore. Our dear friends Ashley and Adam are expecting their first baby in just a couple months, and I’m thrilled that we get to welcome them to the “baby club.” Our friends lovingly call them “Mac and Cheese,” and we’re all so excited to meet Baby Big Mac! While recently on vacation in Blowing Rock, NC for a wedding, we snuck off to the beautiful Chetola Resort for some maternity photos. The grounds were lovely and full of inspiration, but I think our favorite spot was a field of tall grass that was hidden behind trees across the road from the onsite lake. The weather was perfect, Adam was a trooper, and Ashley was absolutely glowing. We also did a quick session at their home after returning back to Atlanta, and I can’t wait to share images from baby’s beautiful nursery soon!

Barrett’s 8 Month Session – Tanyard Creek Park | Atlanta Childrens Photographer

Children, Families

I had the pleasure of photographing Barrett and his parents, Christina and Mike, for his 4 month session last fall, and oh my, how he’s changed since then! They brought his Baptismal gown for some extra special photos, as well as some of their favorite books and stuffed animals and the most amazing upholstered rocker, which I believe was Mike’s as a child. I wanted to take it home with me for all of my sessions! And how unbelievably adorable is Barrett in those suspenders?! I could have photographed him all day in that outfit. He’s such a sweet, mild mannered little guy, and it’s been a joy watching him grow this year!

Caroline’s Maternity Session – Virginia Highlands | Atlanta Maternity Photographer

Adults, Families

Valentine’s Day… what better time to photograph a beautiful mama-to-be than a day celebrating love? I met Caroline and John at their beautiful home in Virginia Highlands. The clients’ home is my favorite spot to shoot maternity portraits because it’s the place they’re the most comfortable! I also just adore seeing parents-to-be in their baby’s nursery, filled with anticipation and excitement for their little one on the way. They and their puppy Abby were so sweet and easy to work with, and it made me super excited to come back for their baby boy’s newborn session in March… photos coming soon!
