Amy moved here from Manhattan, and we actually met in a Facebook group when she asked some questions about registering her business here in Georgia. I had all of the information she needed in a document and sent it her way. When I found out she was moving to Atlanta, I told her to let me know when she was in town, and we'd schedule a brunch.
Amy is a successful wedding planner (A Dream Woven Events) and has such an eye for detail and organization. She has planned and executed some absolutely stunning weddings, and is such a lovely person. If you know someone who needs a wedding or event planner, definitely contact Amy!
Once Amy was in Atlanta and settled in, she took me up on the brunch and we met at one of my favorite places: Homegrown. It's on Memorial Drive, and if you haven't been, definitely plan to go! The comfy chicken is my go to, and it's just a really cool place. At brunch, we got to know each other and then she asked if she could book a maternity session with me. I was surprised, as I hadn't invited her to brunch to turn her into a client! I told her I'd send over all the information later, and she emailed back asking to book a field maternity session. We scheduled a date, and then scheduled a maternity fitting as well.
Amy chose one of the dresses in the wardrobe and opted to wear just one dress for her session since she liked it so much. When I look at this images, I laugh to myself, because underneath that dress she's wearing tennis shoes! Not everyone can get away with that as it depends on your height and dress length, but I love that she showed up in tennis shoes. It was a hot summer day at the field, but was had beautiful light and it didn't storm like we had been worried about. Brian, her husband, is a total sweetheart and madly in love with Amy. The two of them snuggled up to each other and I think they may have even forgotten I was there at times.
After our session, Amy asked to book a newborn session as well for when their son arrived. I was delighted, and you'll see those pictures in a couple of days here on the blog! For now, enjoy some of my favorite photos from their maternity session!
