Atlanta Cake Smash Photographer | Lachlan is ONE!

Kelly and Dustin last worked with me for their newborn session shortly after my own son was born. I was excited to have them come to the studio for Lachlan's first year portraits and cake smash. Kelly and Dustin pulled pieces from their own wardrobe following my styling suggestions, and came to the studio after Lachlan's nap. I always schedule these sessions for after your baby has napped and eaten. A well rested baby with a full tummy is always much happier... I guess I could say the same for adults! 

We started the session with family images. I love starting with family because it establishes a level of trust with your baby. They see that mom and dad are okay with the lady who has the camera, and they relax and show their true personality. Sometimes they're shy at first, and this is totally ok! It can make for some very sweet snuggling images. 

We then moved on to portraits of just Lachlan, and then I set up the paper backdrop for the cake smash. I also have a high chair in the studio for cake smashes, but each parent chooses what they want to do. Parents are assigned to be baby herders if the backdrop is chosen, since most babies will eventually move on from the cake and want to explore the studio. 

Lachlan enjoyed smashing his cake but wasn't too wild about eating it! Not every baby will stuff their mouth with cake and make a huge mess. Every baby is different, and the way they approach their cake smash is unique to them. Some babies just don't care for the taste or sugar or the way the icing feels, and that's ok! The point of First Birthday session is to create portraits of your baby at the age of one, and then to document their authentic reaction to the cake smash experience. 

If you're looking for a baby and family photographer, I would love to work with you to create images that you will love for a lifetime. Be sure to view this short 1.5 minute film to hear about my philosophy and see how I work so you can determine if I'm the right fit for you. I can't wait to meet you!

Atlanta Family Photographer | Arden is 3 months!

I last worked with Claire and Antonio for their field maternity session, which can be viewed by clicking here. I was so excited to hear from them after their sweet little girl, Arden was born, and scheduled them for a three month family session in the studio. 

When they arrived, Claire had brought the cutest little dress for Arden, and Antonio wanted to borrow one of the shirts from the studio wardrobe. Claire loves the studio wardrobe and chose one of the dresses to wear from it. I provide a styling guide and assistance when requested so if you prefer to pull from your own closets, we'll make sure it's cohesive and gorgeous for your session! 

Antonio is such a doting daddy to little Arden, and the whole family was just so cute together! At three months old, some babies can't quite lift their heads up for long periods of time, so we shoot these sessions with baby in the arms of their parent(s). If a parent just wants to document the milestone and doesn't want to be in the images, we'll work around it by shooting from above while on the floor, or have a parent hold their baby and not photograph the parents' face. I strongly encourage parents to participate though! You will love having these images of yourself with your baby when she heads off to college someday. We can't keep them little forever, but at least we can freeze time in a tangible way with portraits.

Atlanta Baby Photographer | Oona is ONE!

We recently featured Oona's newborn, six month, and nine month sessions, as well as her parents' maternity session.

I was so excited for Oona's FIRST BIRTHDAY! It's been such a treasure to know Steve, Irene, and Oona and to watch them find their rhythm as a new family. I truly love watching babies and families grow and becoming a part of their lives. We have a family session scheduled for May for this sweet family, and you can bet I'll be sharing images from that session on the blog too.

When the family came in, Irene chose a cute sweater dress with a tulle skirt from the studio wardrobe. Oona explored the studio for a bit, and when she started getting braver and crawling everywhere, we moved to the antique high chair to keep her in one spot. She enjoyed playing with some of our studio toys that we keep on hand for babies to play with during sessions. Toys are always cleaned after usage, and they're gorgeous natural wood without chemical treatments! 

When it was time for the cake smashing fun, we changed Oona until a pink camisole from the studio wardrobe. We have a wide variety of sizes in case your baby is bigger or smaller than 12 month sizes and have the camisoles in white, gray, and pink. They're fabulous for cake smashes, and no laundry for you to worry about!

Oona's daddy handed her the cake, and she went to town. The comment I receive most often about cake smashes from parents is that they loved being able to watch their child and fully enjoy every funny moment without worrying about documenting it. That's MY job. There was a lot of laughter as we watched Oona study her cake and figure out just how to get as much of it into her mouth as possible. She was a smart cookie and figured out how to pick it up and take a big old bite. It was so much fun to document and be a part of! 

If your baby is turning one soon or in a few months and you'd like to document their First Birthday in a classic and timeless way, please contact us today to begin planning! It's never too soon to schedule (some of our newborn clients get on the calendar at their newborn session!) - and the further in advance you schedule, the better your date options are!

Atlanta Baby Photographer | Oona's Nine Month Milestone Session

We recently featured Oona's newborn session, six month session, and her parents' maternity session. This is her 9 month milestone session!

   Most clients opt for newborn, sitting, and first birthday sessions, but we have some clients choose to celebrate 3 months/100 days old and 9 months too. You can never have too many photographs! 

    Oona's mom chose to have her wear a traditional kimono for part of the session and then chose a sweet white eyelet lace dress from the studio wardrobe for the rest. Nine month sessions are some of my favorites... babies have such unique personality traits and pudgy little fingers and toes. I loved Oona's teensy little pigtails and made sure to document that for her mama as well.  

     Nine month sessions are relaxed and easygoing. We spend time just playing while I capture your baby being just who they are at that time in their life. I always ask parents to quietly sit on the couch and observe. While your intent may be to help, your baby can become confused if you're standing right behind the photographer calling to them. They don't know where to look, they're in a new environment, and they can quickly become overwhelmed. The studio is a calm and peaceful environment and I approach babies in the same way. The quieter, the better! Here are a few of my favorites from Oona's nine month session. I can't wait to share images from her FIRST BIRTHDAY session in a couple of days. This little girl LOVES birthday cake, as you will see! 

If you're pregnant and looking for a newborn or maternity photographer, I would love to work with you to create images that you will love for a lifetime.

Atlanta Family Photographer | Oona is 6 months!

Earlier this week, we featured Oona's newborn session and her parent's maternity session in the field. For Oona's 6 month session, we went back to the field where it all began. Irene chose to borrow a dress and shawl from the studio wardrobe again, and she fell in love with one of the sweet little dresses we keep on hand for baby girls in the studio. 

Sessions in the spring and summer can sometimes be harder for babies since we start in the hour before sunset, and that's typically past the bedtime of most babies. A later nap and a full belly help quite a lot, and most babies are too distracted to remember they're tired until the end of the session.... and then we have some adorable sleepy images. 

Oona is such a happy little girl and her parents dote on her. They're always so much fun to work with and whenever we're together there's a lot of laughing that happens. I love that they chose me as their photographer because they wanted the photographs of their family to focus on the real moments and emotional connection. When Irene told me that was what drew them to me, I know they were my perfect clients. While I will always attempt to create a portrait with everyone looking at the camera, that's not the goal of my sessions. The goal is to create images of you playing with your child and being her mom and dad. The goal is to capture those in between moments of tenderness and sweetness that happen when nobody is looking. Parenting is hard as it is... let's grab hold of those moments that make it all worth it.

Atlanta Baby Photographer | Mommy & Me Sessions Event

The Mother's Day Sessions are now open to the public! We opened booking to our existing clients last week, and are already 50% sold out of our spots. Our booking calendar is now open to everyone and spots are still available on both April 23rd and April 30th.

A few important notes!

1) Sessions are for mothers and their children only. Babies should be at least 8 weeks old, with no upper age limit. If your oldest baby is 12, they're NOT too old!  If you have multiple children, bring them all to participate! There is no limit to the number of your children. We'll talk about if you want individual images with each of your children in your gallery or prefer to have everyone together. If you are a same sex couple, this is for one mom. 

2) Professional makeup application is complimentary! You'll need to arrive 35 minutes BEFORE your scheduled time slot. If you are late, our makeup artist will not be able to accommodate you. If you don't want makeup application, feel free to skip it or ask for very light makeup. Tips are not suggested or expected. 

3) If you're pregnant with an older child, you're welcome to participate. If you're pregnant with your first baby, you'll need to contact us about booking a maternity session instead as this is not designed to be a maternity session. 

4) You can opt to dress casually (jeans and white t-shirt) or dress it up a bit! A What to Wear style guide will be emailed out to you in advance of the session. 

5) 50% is due to book with the remainder due April 9, 2017. You can also opt to pay in full at booking.

Atlanta Family Photographer | Ava's sitter session in the gardens

Brittany contacted me several months in advance to get on the calendar for a late fall family/milestone session in the garden location. She wanted a weeknight so her husband wouldn't miss any football games. The gardens are only available on weeknights, so this was the perfect choice for their family. 

The last time I saw little Ava and her parents was at her newborn session when she was an itty bitty twelve days old, which you can see here. I loved working with Brittany and Frank, who are the owners and driving force behind a successful real estate firm here in Atlanta! They are such a sweet family, and little Miss Ava has the biggest blue eyes and the best personality. Frank is not a big fan of having his photo taken, but has decided he likes working with me because I don't make things awkward and actually fun to be around, according to Brittany. That makes me happy to hear, because I work really hard to win dads over! 

I provided styling assistance to Brittany via email with link exchanges of suggestions of what to wear, and we pulled together a comfortable and cute look for everyone that would photograph well in the gardens setting. My studio wardrobe is always available to borrow from, but many families choose to just utilize my styling assistance instead and shop from their own closets or purchase some new clothes to wear. The most important thing is to be comfortable and look like YOU! 

Brittany had worked with Margaret for her hair and makeup services when we had shot Ava's newborn session and she loved the experience with her. We scheduled their family session to take place on Brittany's birthday, so she treated herself to Margaret's services again! 

We met at the gardens on a mild fall evening, and had lots of fun wandering around and exploring. Brittany chose to mat an 11x14 print of one of their session images and place in a 16x20 frame. I have a gorgeous frame line in the studio, and take care of all of that for my clients. It saves you the hassle of getting the print, taking it to a frame shop, picking out a mat and frame, leaving the print, and then driving back to pick it up. Instead, my clients just choose their frame, and it's ready for pickup within 3-4 weeks time and ready to hang right on the wall! 

These are some of my favorite images from this sweet family's session - I just can't get over Ava's big beautiful blue eyes! 

If you're looking for a family photographer, I would love to work with you to create images that you will love for a lifetime. Be sure to view this short 1.5 minute film to hear about my philosophy and see how I work so you can determine if I'm the right fit for you. I can't wait to meet you!

Atlanta Baby Photography | Abby turns ONE!

Abby came to the studio to celebrate turning ONE and was the very first baby to be photographed on the new studio floors! Her mama elected to borrow some pieces from the studio wardrobe for Abby's session. We started off with one of my favorite tutus which we put over a grey camisole and paired with one of the many tiebacks in my collection. These tiebacks are often worn during newborn sessions, and it's pretty special to use one of the same ones when your newborn turns one!  

After capturing Abby crawling around on the floor and playing with some of the studio toys, we decided to contain her a little bit using some of our studio chairs. The high chair is a genuine vintage high chair with the perfect amount of natural weathering, and is so perfect for crawling and walking babies! It keeps them contained for a little bit so their expressions and little details can more easily be captured, and is the perfect way to transition to the cake portion of one year sessions. 

I always have a parent place the cake on the tray so that I can capture the first reactions to cake. A lot of clients ask when they should schedule the one year session. The answer depends on your personal preferences! Some of my clients want the images to truly capture their baby's first exposure to cake. Others prefer for that moment to be at their first birthday party and schedule the one year session for the week afterwards. Either way you choose, babies with cake are adorable! All of my clients have told me afterwards that they LOVED being able to just stand and watch and take in every moment without worrying about taking pictures themselves. 

I think it's safe to say she loved her cake, don't you? It was so funny watching her navigate her cake and then deciding this would be the most efficient way to get as much as possible into her mouth. Smart girl! 

Chubby cheeks and long eyelashes...forever preserved to remember. Those cheeks will slowly disappear as she grows into a toddler and a little girl but her mama will always have these images to remember exactly what she looked like. 

After we cleaned Miss Abby up, her mama started getting her ready to go. When she pulled this dress out of her diaper bag, I immediately asked if we could take a few more images because it was just SO perfect. And sure enough, these last few images ended up being some of my favorite from Abby's one year session! 

If you would like to reserve your baby's first year session, it's never to early to do so! Many of my clients schedule their six month and first year sessions when they see me during their newborn session. I love documenting babies and young families as they grow, and I would love to work with you to create milestone images that you will love for a lifetime. Be sure to view this short 1.5 minute film to hear about my philosophy and see how I work in the studio so you can determine if I'm the right fit for you. I can't wait to meet you!

Atlanta Newborn & Family Photographer | What a difference a year makes

After newborn sessions, I often see my clients again for milestone sessions! The most popular milestone sessions are when babies are sitting unassisted (between 6-8 months) and then again at one year. I love comparing the newborn and one year photos with my clients, and I'm always amazed by how much babies change in that first year! 

The first image was of her as a big sister again holding her tiny two week old brother on her lap. When I photographed his one year portrait and cake smash session, we decided to take another similar image. These two are the best of friends. She is his little mama, his protector, and encourager. She was there when he was born, and she correctly predicted that he would be a boy. She begs to go into his room when he wakes in the morning or from a nap, and his face lights up with joy when he sees her. She crawls around on the floor with him, and picks up his water cup countless times when he accidentally (or not so accidentally) drops it. I hope they're always close and there for each other, and I hope when they're adults they look at these images and smile. 

Clothing provided from the studio wardrobe.

Atlanta Baby Photography | 100 Days Old

Amy contacted me to ask if I had any availability to photograph her son at 100 days old. I offer studio milestone sessions to capture your baby at the times in their life you want to remember. I mostly see babies in when they are sitting unassisted (usually between 6-9 months) and then again at age 1. 

In Amy's culture, the milestone of being 100 days old  is celebrated, and I think it's just the neatest thing! I was not prepared for what a big boy Axel was - he was already in 6-9 month clothing! He was the sweetest little chub and since he was still too little to sit unassisted or lift his head up for very long, I suggested that Amy be in the photos to hold him.  Amy hadn't brought anything to wear, so we picked out a dress for her from the studio wardrobe. She also chose a sweater romper for Axel to wear for some of his images. 

Axel fell asleep in his mommy's arms towards the end of the session, so I took that opportunity to take some images of him sleeping soundly away.

Amy was a bit reluctant to participate in the session at first since she did not want photos of herself but after she saw them, she was so happy she was in them. Photos of your baby are important. How else will you truly remember how little they were in your arms? How they snuggled up against your shoulder or clutched your arm? You are their safe place, and years from now they will cherish the images they have with you holding them. Children know their parents love them. Give them the gift of images that illustrate your relationship and how much you love them!

Atlanta Newborn Photography | Sweet new family of three

How sweet is this family? I had such a wonderful time working with them for their maternity, Fresh 48, and newborn sessions and look forward to seeing them in the studio again for milestone sessions! Many of my clients choose to book multiple sessions with me, and I love getting to know them along the way. Mom's top and dad's shirt are available as part of my studio wardrobe. I'm more than happy give suggestions for what to wear for your studio session if you prefer to bring your own clothing. Your experience is so important, so I walk you through everything to ensure that your images are classic, timeless, and beautiful. I want you to smile when you look at them and I want your children to see how happy you were to have them in your arms and how much you loved them. That's my goal for any client who works with me here at Lily Sophia Photography! 

Many clients ask if high resolution files are included with their newborn collection. The answer is yes, along with a personal print release and a list of recommended consumer labs for printing. Every newborn collection also includes some tangible professionally printed artwork for your home, AND I love gifting all of my newborn clients a set of 25 fine paper announcements to send to friends and family. After your session, you'll come back to the studio to sift through your printed proofs while enjoying a snack and beverage from the studio fridge. We'll choose the images for your artwork and your birth announcement together, and you'll leave that day with your proof set and digital files ready to go. It's lots of fun, laid back, and I work with you every single step of the way to ensure a wonderful experience. Click here to read what previous clients have to say about working with me.

Atlanta Newborn Photographer | The transition to motherhood

I really love when maternity clients choose to book Fresh 48 and a newborn session like this mama did. Seeing the change that takes place from when they are expecting, to that first day of wonder and amazement in the hospital with their new baby after their world has been turned upside down, to the pure and completely indescribable love for their new baby in the studio ... it's really incredible to see the change in a woman just by her countenance. The transition to motherhood is clearly visible in the images that I take since my goal is to capture the emotional connection between you, your partner, your unborn baby or brand new baby.  It's such an honor to be invited to document these precious and fleeting times in the lives of new families. 

I would love to work with you and your growing family to preserve these memories for you in tangible form for many of your generations. Contact me today so we can begin planning your maternity, Fresh 48, or newborn session. I have limited availability remaining for 2015, and am currently booking as far in advance as May 2016!

Atlanta Newborn Photographer | Little Feet

There's just something that I love about a baby sleeping contentedly in their mama's arms during their newborn session in my studio. I love when their little toes stick out. There's just something so perfectly sweet and completely innocent about their tiny feet. 

I have limited availability remaining for 2015, and would love to work with your family to create beautiful images and heirloom artwork for your home! It's never too early to reserve your session - the sooner the better for guaranteed availability and priority scheduling! If you'd like to see what I'm like to work with, watch this short 1.5 minute film which all of my clients agree captures me perfectly.

Atlanta Newborn Photographer | When two become three

Your eyes met. You thought he was cute. He made you laugh. He asked you out. You tried on a million different outfits before your first date. That first date turned into a second. Then a third. You fell in love. He asked you to be his wife. You said yes.

You never thought you could love a person more than on your wedding day.

You saw two lines.

Nine months later, he held your hand as you brought your new baby into the world. 

You never thought you could love a person more than the moment you saw him hold your tiny daughter in his arms  for the first time. 

Maybe this is exactly how your story goes. Maybe it's not. Maybe there were a lot of twists and turns. Whatever the case may be, I can assure you that your story has just begun. You have such an amazing journey ahead of you that will be more full of love and joy than you could ever imagined, even when there are hard moments. It sounds cliche, but it's the truth. 

Every couple and every baby that comes into my studio for their maternity or newborn session is unique in their own way. Every story is beautiful. I'm so honored to be chosen to create beautiful images and heirloom artwork for the homes of my clients and would love to work with you. 

Questions? Ready to reserve your session? Contact me today by filling out this form or calling 470.383.3897. I can't wait to meet you!

Atlanta Maternity Photographer | New additions to the studio wardrobe!

I love having a studio wardrobe for clients. It's one less thing for you to worry about when planning your session, and so many of my clients are relieved that they don't have to shop for something while pregnant. I have an assortment of dresses to fit XS-XL and for every kind of body type. Some clients love their arms and want to show those off, while others would prefer to keep them covered.

The best part of my studio wardrobe? The pieces aren't just for maternity clients - they're for newborn clients and family sessions too! I carefully hand select all additions to my studio wardrobe to fit BOTH pregnant and non pregnant moms. Who has the time or energy to pull together an outfit to wear for their newborn family photos?  All pieces worn are professionally cleaned afterwards for the next client. If you'd like to see what the experience of working with me is like, take a few minutes to watch this short film of me in action. My clients say it depicts me perfectly! 

All of the above dresses are recent additions to the wardrobe. Aren't they gorgeous? Don't want to wear something from the studio wardrobe? That's totally okay! As part of the Lily Sophia Photography client experience, I provide styling assistance to you. Sometimes that means I send you links to shop with, I come to your home to see your closet, or we meet up at one of my favorite stores to shop! I believe that having your photos taken should be a wonderful and low stress experience, and I do everything I can to ensure that for you.

Atlanta Maternity Photographer | Featured on Lemonade & Lenses (again!)

I'm so honored to have one of my maternity sessions chosen and featured on the blog of Lemonade & Lenses. This outstanding industry publication for photographers published one of my newborn sessions on their blog in January as well. I've met lots of clients who have come my way after seeing the featured sessions, and have loved that they were able to get a great idea of what to expect from a session with me!

Maternity sessions are some of my favorite sessions. I have very limited availability remaining for summer 2015, and fall is starting to book up. Don't miss your opportunity to reserve your session. My pregnancy photos are not cheesy and are focused on the love and connection that you and your partner share. Worried about the Atlanta heat? Want indoors?

I want your pregnancy pictures to stand the test of time and not elicit laughter from your teenager 15 years from now.

You'll only be pregnant with this baby once, and it's going to be over before you know it. You might not think you'll miss being pregnant... but I promise, you'll miss something about it once your baby is in your arms. Document this amazing time in your life!

Atlanta Family Photography | Baby Harry

I first met Harry and his parents at their newborn session, and was so excited to see them again for Harry's six month session! He is the cutest, sweetest little chunk, and his parents are just lovely. We had a lot of fun at their session in the Atlanta area field that I love to shoot in for their sunset family session. When we were planning their session, I gave suggestions on what to wear so everyone would be comfortable and the results would be gorgeous on the walls of their home. When Harry's mama saw this first picture below, she said to me, "This picture is what love looks like to me." It looks like love to me too. This picture is what my baby and family sessions are all about. I want to capture emotive images of your family that document where you are right now and how much you love each other because that is what is most important. 

Ready to reserve your field session for your baby's six month or one year photos? Or just want a family session? Contact me today to begin planning! We'll discuss what you want to do with your photos and I'll help with your wardrobe so you have artwork to treasure now and pass down to your children to cherish later.

Atlanta Newborn Photographer | Baby rolls

I love welcoming newborns and their families for newborn sessions in my natural light studio here in Atlanta, GA. My newborn sessions are a blend of simple, organic posing and some lifestyle. It is so important to capture all of those little details of your baby that you can't see yourself unless you're standing in front of a mirror and paying attention.

This image is a perfect example of what I mean.

This father is cradling his baby boy to his chest. He can't see how tiny his son is and how his hand covers his son. He can't see the sweet little baby rolls and how snuggly his little boy looks. Except, now ... he can. Because he has a photo of it to treasure for a lifetime. So, someday when his son asks for the keys to the car, or calls his dad out of breath to say, "Dad, the baby is coming!", he can reach for this image and remember exactly how it felt to hold his newborn son and how little he was.
