Crossroads
{atlanta highschool senior portraits}

A few overdue previews of the session I had with beautiful Kayley. She is an all-around amazing person and we had fun creating some beautiful imagery, on a day ending up with some severe storms (looming nearby in the picture with the train below).

I'll post a few more over the next few days -- thanks for playing along Kayley, I know your future is bright and I am glad we met!

Here are some preview images of another session from a week or so ago with a very good looking family - little Reece was quite a natural in front of the camera, as you can see!

Wonderful meeting you, guys!

About Lucy
{atlanta cute kids photographer}

I have to thank a wonderful family tradition for being the reason behind what is one of my favorite sessions ever. The home-made gorgeous gown you'll see below is something each girl in this family receives and is photographed in around this age. Lucky me to be the chosen documenter of this particular little girl's turn to wear hers!

You see, just as I was wondering if she can get any cuter (about 2 minutes into our shoot), she did. And then got cuter yet. And then also got super cool, and bright, and all things Lucy.

Enjoy this sneak peek guys, and thanks for your patience! (I like to post these within a couple of days from the shoot, and these were taken last Saturday, I am bit bit behind thanks to rain rescheduling and school portraits -- not complaining :))

Dear friends
{georgia family photographer}

Here are a couple of images from a recent impromptu photo shoot of our dear friends the Umanas, who were unsuspectingly driving through Atlanta a few weeks ago.

We had a great time reconnecting by the Chattahoochee, and meeting their newest daughter -- how beautiful are these girls??

We hope to see you again before too long, guys!

Baby Jacob
{atlanta newborn photography}

Here is the sneak peek for Baby Jacob's newborn photoshoot, from this past Sunday. Not quite a week old, yet he was awake for most of the pictures, but perfectly content to go along with the flow!

Thanks for opening your home to me, guys! I enjoyed meeting your new baby boy!

Beautiful Spring
{atlanta outdoor family portraits}

I am catching up a bit on blogging some more recent sessions -- school portraits these past few days (over 200 kids and loving it) have slowed some of these previews.

Here are some sneak peeks for Saturday morning's session, with one of my favorite families!

We had great weather and I had a lot of fun photographing Jackson and Natalie and their parents at a couple of locations, plus hunting some of the blooming azalea bushes in their neighborhood.

Brand new baby
{fulton newborn photography]

Today I had the honor to be present at baby Oliver's birth, as his mommy's doula.
He arrived at 5:39pm on Easter Day, weighing 7lbs3oz, measuring 19in and very very cute.
I attended his birth as the labor doula, for 26 hours, and witnessed the very hard work his mommy Stacey has gone through, for many hours, to bring him into the world safely and lovingly.
This was a VBA2C birth and special in every way, officiated by the ever talented and dedicated dr T.
Congratulations Stacey, Allen and big brothers and sisters (especially the super brave Anastasia), thank you so much for inviting me to be a part of this woderful day!
Here are a few quick pictures before I fall asleep...

Beauty in the park

Yesterday's late afternoon session was filled with beauty. The day was gorgeous, the park was green and idyllic, and the family - truly good looking and a lot of fun.

I loved meeting and getting to photograph you all!


Here is your sneak peek. I have so many others I love, picking just a few was not easy!
