Parker Pack Family Portraits ~ Kennesaw Photographer

Nina and I met a few months ago at a photography workshop. We instantly became good friends! Nina has a huge heart and loves to spend time with her family.  Last Sunday I had the opportunity to shoot the Parker Pack annual family photos at Kennesaw Mountain. Every photographer has their own style and process so to be asked to shoot another photogs family is a great honor for me! 

The Greenbaums: Mother's Day Surprise Session

The week before Mother's day I got a Facebook message from my girlfriend Sheila's daughter Emily.  She wanted to do something really special for mom by getting pictures of the 4 children taken! Luckily, I'd been focusing so much on finishing the studio and prepping for my weddings that I haven't been booking sessions during the week. So Wednesday before Mother's day, we headed out to my favorite field in what was the gloomiest morning ever! We had just about an hour before the ran kicked in and we were able to get in enough shots to surprise Sheila with some beautiful images of her babies! I couldn't have thought of a better gift myself....Sheila - you have raised one thoughtful and amazing daughter!But ladies - next time try to book a little more in advance!!! xoxo

I love this last one.... reminds me of a DR SEUSS movie! 

The Brandeberrys: 4 generations of love ~ Lakeland Family Photographer

In April, I had the opportunity to photograph the entire Brandeberry Clan while in Central Florida for Easter. It's hard enough just to get my friend Amanda's siblings in one location let alone this whole family. It's great to know that they will have these pictures to share with new generations for years to come! It's families like this that make me love my job...

Jackson's 1st Birthday: CAKE SMASH ~ Alpharetta Photographer

Jackson was one of my first newborn shoots so it was only right that he be one of my first cake smashes! I was very excited to finally get to do a cake smash shoot! I just love them. Watching a little cutie tear into a cake just a smilin'. LOVE IT!

Jackson is such a sweet boy! We started with some pictures of him and his monkey! 

We tried to get him to put on the birthday hat his mom made...but as you see he didn't care for it too much!

But when we brought out the cake.... he went nuts!

He was in a sugar coma but didn't hesitate to lick the plate!

The after math was quite a mess...

But not according to the family pet!

Studio update: The studio is coming along nicely. We are about to lay the wood floors and it will be done! I look forward to all the amazing Newborns and Kiddos I'll be able to capture! We are currently booking newborn sessions for anyone due April or later....So if you are interested contact us for Rates & Specials!!! 

2011 in Review: Portraits

To compliment yesterday's post with a photograph from all my weddings is a compilation of portrait sessions from 2011. From families to infants and high school seniors to engaged couples, I had the privilege of capturing so many memories for so many fabulous people!
