Carolyn called the studio phone to ask if we had any availability for a last minute maternity and newborn session. She had been on the fence about whether she wanted any photos and had decided that she did! One of her best friends is a professional photographer in NYC and Carolyn had asked her for some help in deciding who to use in the Atlanta area. Her friend looked through a few websites, and recommended she choose us! I am always honored when anyone chooses to work with us, but I do love it when I hear that another professional in the industry has given their stamp of approval - which actually happens quite a bit!
We were able to fit Carolyn in right away for a maternity fitting, and got super lucky with the weather! Our HMUA's were even available at the last minute also. While we do book quite far in advance, it's always worth checking in with us if you're a last minute client. We just may be able to fit you into our schedule. If you wait until the last minute, be prepared to schedule on a weeknight as that is often our only availability.
The evening of the session, we headed down to the park location and got started. The light was beautiful, and Carolyn and Craig snuggled up to each other. They were one of the most naturally affectionate couples that I've ever worked with, and I loved it. If you're not naturally affectionate, please don't worry about that! I promise to make your experience stress free and we'll push past that initial awkwardness. Maternity sessions are relaxed and fun - I will give you guided direction for natural interaction. It's totally normal to feel like you don't know what you're doing in front of the camera and to feel a little bit nervous. I'll walk you through the whole thing from start to finish!
Here are a few of my favorites from their gorgeous session!
