A Baby Announcement! – Buckhead | Atlanta Family Photographer

Ashley and Adam have been two very dear friends of ours for years now. I went to UGA with them, and we’ve grown up with each other over the past decade or so. When Ashley asked me to be a part of their pregnancy announcement, I was thrilled and honored! Being able to document the special times in the lives of those I love and care about is one of the reasons I do what I do, and this was no exception.

They have a great backyard (which is hard to come by in Buckhead), so we used that as the backdrop for their surprise announcement. They’re huge Georgia fans (Ashley was a cheerleader, too!), so it was only fitting that we use red and black tailgate chairs. How cute is that little baby chair? She also gathered some of her younger brother’s baby clothes, which were absolutely perfect, because they’re having a BOY! They made their announcement a couple months ago, and it’s hard to believe that baby boy McDowell will be here in just a few months. We can’t wait to meet him!

Avery’s Newborn Session – Roswell | Atlanta Newborn Photographer

Avery Elizabeth is such a sweet, sleepy, and loved little girl! Her parents created a beautiful nursery for her, complete with a really neat alphabet wall over her changing table. Her mom went to Georgia Tech and her dad went to Michigan, so of course they had to throw in some fun things for their “house divided.” 🙂 Their adorable, rambunctious puppy, Rocky, wanted so badly to be in all of her photos. He was just as cute as she was! Avery is now about to turn 4 months old, and I’m sure she’s just as sweet as she was the day I met her.

Carter’s 1 Year Milestone Session – Woodstock | Atlanta Children’s Photographer

I’ve been photographing Carter since he was born, and oh my, I can’t believe he’s already ONE! His birthday was back in February, and he was just as sweet and happy as he has been since I met him. It’s always an honor, but also a little bittersweet, to be the one to document a baby from birth through his or her first year of life. Here’s to many more years of cake-smashing good times, Carter!

Emilia’s 4 Month Milestone Session – Atlanta | Atlanta Children’s Photographer

Emilia (Emi) was born not long after our little lady, so it was fun to do an in-home session with her celebrating 4 months earlier this year. She was bright-eyed and so happy — just a joy to photograph! We had a lot in common, given their “house divided” with UGA and Auburn, and their pillow pets made a great addition to our session. 🙂 Their fur baby, Chibi, joined in for a few photos as well, which I always love. Pets are such an integral part of a family! Enjoy!

Olivia’s Newborn Session – Peachtree City | Atlanta Newborn Photographer

I photographed the sweetest mermaid baby back in January… there’s a first time for everything, right? Olivia’s mom, Leslie, decorated her nursery with the cutest theme – coral and mint with touches of the ocean and mermaids. It was so tastefully done and made me want to head right to the beach! I’m sure Olivia is going to love growing up in that room. She is one lucky little girl with parents who absolutely adore her — and she also has two German Shepherd siblings who wanted sooo badly to be a part of her photo session, and they could not have been more friendly! I’m really looking forward to seeing how she grows this coming year!
