Welcome to the World!

This Atlanta Newborn Baby Boy is gorgeous (okay, handsome). He is “chill” and absolutely perfect from what I can tell! It was a joy to hold him on his one week birthday. atlantanewborn-baby atlanta-newborn-baby atlantanewborn-baby-nurseryI may be a little obsessed with this cool nursery decor especially the wallpaper. Dad is a pilot and I love the airplane touches just like my little boys had when they were little. We even heard airplanes flying overhead during our session which was fun.

 

Welcome to the World, Baby Boy. I can’t wait to watch you grow!

For up to five family members.  Contact me for availability and booking.  These sessions are quick and focused on the family as a whole for holiday cards and gifts. For individual portraits of children, you might consider a full session instead.

Happy Holidays!

back-to-school

 

 

first day of school, hooray!

 

I love this back to school chalkboard I found at Target in the Dollar Spot. Take a look for yourself but I bet they are gone.  I think I love these new chalk pencils even more!

Cobb County Schools are in full swing and the rest of Georgia will be back in school soon. We can officially fill in “my teacher is” now and by next week all my kiddos will be in school full time. I am already missing summer and wishing I could sleep later.  My goal is getting all three of mine in one back to school picture very soon. It may not happen. Having 3 in 3 different schools has proven to be challenging so far so wish me luck!

 

Chalkboard Notes:  Yes, she said she wants to be a Butler. We may have made up the weight and height. Maybe…

marietta family fourBaby Luke is the newest addition to this precious Marietta family of four. I wish every newborn in the world could be loved on like this one! He is so sweet and I love seeing how much he looks like his big brother. I wonder if he will be as musical? little boys brother mother of four family

family of four mother little boy brother family-father-photoI just love the black and white pictures. So timeless and I know firsthand how precious the pictures below of these brothers “when they were little” will become in no time at all.   marietta newobrn family

This is a lovely family and I am excited to add to their growing wall gallery as their baby boys are born and grow bigger and bigger. What matters most to them hangs on the wall in a collection to enjoy at all times!

 

Newborn Sessions

***Newborn sessions are best held before 2 weeks of age. Lifestyle family sessions capturing both Mom, Dad and siblings are the best memories to capture at this special time of life.

little black dress llittle-black-dressLaura is a stunner in her little black dress. I especially loved it in this urban setting and Marietta weather provided hair whipping wind that I’m sure Beyonce’s fan machines couldn’t produce! perfect-black-dress littleblackdress black-dress-seniorAnd last but not least, my favorite color. Blue always works for me!

little black-dress-srMy most favorite thing about this Senior Session was Laura’s infectious laugh. I love her big smile and even bigger laugh. You can’t help but smile and have a good time when you are with her.

Congratulations on your Graduation, Laura! black-dress-senior-girl

ourtown family ourtown family ourtown familyI’ve known the Cochrans for many years so what a surprise when we were matched up for the latest Our Town. There couldn’t be a more perfect family to be featured on the cover and when we added their new puppy, Buddy, we had cuteness overload! They were a little nervous about bringing Buddy because he isn’t known for his…good behavior (yet).  I’ve worked with lots of puppies in photo sessions so I felt confident he should be there and he definitely did not disappoint. Look how good he is in these pictures! Hopefully he didn’t go home and chew up all their shoes.

ourtown family ourtown familyThis is a Vinings Estates family and the kids go to Whitefield Academy in Mableton where the whole family is very active. What better place for a family portrait than at the place where they spend so much time. Whitefield was very generous and were happy to have us shoot on their campus. The weather had turned cold and rainy again and we rescheduled at least once to avoid SNOW at our session. In Atlanta, we think of warmer weather for March and flowers so we had hoped for a more spring-like setting. Luckily we had bright sun on the day we shot and we avoided the rain and snow after all.

 

Buddy is a Boykin Spaniel.
