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 Family Photographer | Capturing those little moments

One of my favorite things about being an Atlanta family and baby photographer is getting to see my clients more than once! This lovely mama and her family are such a joy to work with.  I first met them when Harry was just a tiny eleven pound baby (okay, maybe not so tiny) for their newborn session, and was excited to see them again for his 6 month old session. He's SUCH a doll, and such a happy boy! 

His mama let me know before the session that she wanted the session to focus primarily on Harry, and I reminded her that I shoot the connection between parents and children for my family sessions. I did shoot half of the session to be of just Harry, but the other half was focused on capturing moments between Harry and his parents. This moment is one of them, and I just adore this image so much. This is what motherhood is all about! Getting down on the ground with your baby and seeing the world through his eyes. Who knew grass was so fascinating? Someday Harry will be a grown man, and he will have this image of his mother on the ground next to him exploring the world right alongside him. He will know how much she loved him - because he will SEE that in this image. This is why I am so passionate about photography and what shapes the way I shoot sessions...emotive, connective moments where you feel the love in the images.

Atlanta Baby Photographer | Mommy and Harry

I just loved capturing these two at Harry's 6 month session. We doubled it as a family session, and I will be able to share the rest of the images after Christmas! If you think that a winter session isn't a good idea: think again. Winter provides such a beautiful natural background and I love to use the golden sun. 

This image is perfection to me and makes me happy just to look at it. How many of us will do anything to make our children laugh and squeal with delight? We are the entire world to our children for such a very short time. There will come a day when they won't be small enough to lift to the sky. 

Family and baby sessions are so important because you need to remember these moments with your baby. You will blink, and they will be going to kindergarten. Being a parent is so bittersweet, because you want to hold on to their littleness forever but you're so proud of them as they grow and learn new things. 

Contact me today to begin planning your baby or family session! My session fee includes 3 appointments: pre-planning for your session, your actual session, and your gallery reveal/ordering session in my natural light studio. I can't wait to meet you and create images that will make you and your baby smile for a lifetime.

Atlanta Maternity Photographer | From 3 to 4

This sweet family is welcoming a new baby at the beginning of 2015 and wanted to capture both their pregnancy and family for their photos! They're waiting to find out if they're having a son or daughter, and I can't wait to find out when the baby arrives. Erica and I planned their shoot a few months prior, and she chose to use a dress from my studio wardrobe available to my clients. We spent an evening in 37 degree weather to capture their family and Erica's pregnancy. I just love their little family, and can't wait to share more from their session.

Atlanta Family Photographer | The Preston Family

I love family sessions! The outdoors at sunset is the most beautiful time to shoot, and I take clients to a quiet field in the Atlanta area. I stay back while families love each other and capture the special connection between each family member. 

This session was a special one since the Prestons are from Michigan. They were passing through for a wedding in Florida and reserved a session with me during their stay in Atlanta. It's such an honor when out of state clients contact me for a session!

Atlanta Family Photographer | the perfect moments

My Atlanta family sessions aren't just about getting that "perfect" family photo. Perfection is in the stolen moments. It's in the secrets whispered between mother and daughter, and the harder to come by hugs from your almost three year old who never.stops.running. It's remembering how perfectly your little girl fit in your arms and the smell of her freshly washed hair. My photos are about capturing your love in real life. Let's schedule a session with your family today!

Atlanta Family Photographer | Baby Aevan, 10 days new

While I love naturally posed newborn images as they focus on the tiny details of babies, I firmly believe lifestyle is most important. So many new parents think that they want only posed photos and later regret their choice. Lifestyle is important because it documents this time in your life as a family. It documents your life in real life, as it unfolds. It puts YOU, the parent, into the photos. When your baby isn't so little anymore, you will want to remember how it felt to hold them in your arms. You will want to remember how tiny their little head was cradled in your hands. You will want to remember the joy and contentment you felt as a new little family. And you can do that with photos. I absolutely love what I do as an Atlanta photographer and am proud to offer my clients truly beautiful products to display their images in their homes. Make your memories tangible.

I'd love to work with you to plan a session for your family! I accept a limited number of clients per month, so head on over to my contact page to request more information and reserve a session!

Atlanta Family Photographer | Megan and Cameron

Because there are days that motherhood is so, so hard. Motherhood can exhaust you and leave you feeling depleted some days. But at the same time, motherhood is so, so good. There is no other experience that demands every part of who you are but gives you more than you could ever imagine in return.

On those days when you're going on empty, do you have images of what it means to be a mother to your child on your walls? If you don't, you should. Let's create those together!

Sandy Springs Family Photographer | The Pitel Family

I'm always excited to work with families to create beautiful artwork for their homes. A lot of other photographers choose me to capture their families. It's such an honor (and a little bit nerve wracking!) when a talented person in the industry places their trust in me to document sweet family moments! Milissa and Dmitry were wonderful to work with, and their sweet boys were just too cute. Alexei had just turned 1, so these photos doubled as Alexei's one year photos with a family session. They drove from their home in Sandy Springs to one of my favorite locations in the Atlanta area, and had fun interacting as a family while I stood back behind the lens. We even managed to take a few of just Milissa and Dmitry, as the last time they had photos taken of just them as a couple was at their engagement session! After viewing their images, Milissa selected several to display in their home. I can't wait to work with them again in the future for updated family photos!

Atlanta Baby Photographer | Kerry and baby James

The last time I had seen Kerry was for her gorgeous maternity session. Kerry wanted to schedule a session for herself and her new baby boy, James, who is now 5 months old! Needless to say, Kerry is a loyal client, and I love working with her. We planned her wardrobe together after a trip to Anthropologie, and met at a park before sunset. When planning the session, Kerry let me know that she wanted some photos to document their nursing relationship, and that she loved James' thick tummy. I made a mental note of that and made sure to capture those things for her to look back on.

After viewing her images, Kerry selected several to display in their own home and as gifts for family. I'm looking forward to their family session this fall!
