olivia grace | marietta newborn photographer

Sweet Olivia. Adorable, awake, hungry Olivia. Like so many newborns, miss Olivia spent her first few days just adjusting to being born. But by day 7? This wee baby girl was HUNGRY. Did she sleep during our session? Yup, here and there…but basically she was all about the FOOD (hey, a girl after my own...

the studio

Before my session yesterday, I took a few shots around the studio. I love it there – perfect natural light in the room where I photograph, and cozy comfort in the outer room. It’s my happy place and I hope my clients enjoy it too.

(more information in the ‘newborn and baby studio’ link in the...

tristan | georgia newborn photographer

As you all know, I have photographed a *lot* of sweet newborns. Well darling Tristan here wins the award for the most alert wee one I’ve ever met.
He wasn’t fussy…no, not at all. And he actually slept for about 5 minutes. But the rest of the time? He was convinced there was a party going...

Now that the armoire is built and the couch has arrived, we spent some time yesterday installing some things. I wanted the studio to be a cozy extension of my home – and I’m just beyond thrilled with how it’s all pulling together!
This is inside the shooting room (windows are behind where I’m standing). A...

So how about a giveaway? This...

As a photographer, nothing makes me happier than when the stars align and we have happy, wonderful children + awesome parents + a fabulous location + amazing weather. Because this is the result:

I first photographed Etta as a newborn, and I could not BELIEVE how she’d grown. Time really does fly. And Sam? Well he...

happy halloween!

Gray, gloomy, cold. Perfect Halloween weather!
Ava  will be Cinderella – she wanted to be a ladybug, but since she has absolutely no patience, much like her mother she didn’t want to go to a different store, she selected Cinderella as substitute. Aidan is some sort of demon motorcycle rider (“CHOPPER, mom!!”) – he’s 10, need...

amelia | smyrna newborn photographer

Meet the absolutely precious miss Amelia, at all of 7 days old:

Amelia is Mary-Isabella’s new baby sister. I photographed big sis when she was a wee newborn, and it’s been so fun to see her change and grow. Don’t you love her orange tutu?!?

Tiny toes and soft cheeks. There’s just nothing sweeter…

Jackie and Andrew, thank...
