breathtaking baby girl | atlanta baby photographer

This sweet, sweet family is so special to me! I met them after their son was born and I photographed him as a newborn, at 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, and at 1 year. A year or so passes and I hear that they are expecting a baby girl! We scheduled a fresh 48 hospital session and her newborn photos. And omigoodness, the images and our time together were incredible.

Flash forward to this fall and miss Vivian is 6 months old! We met for these photos at this family's new, custom built home. Can I just say that it was gorgeous? Vivian's nursery was beautiful so we had to get a few photos of the little miss there and then we moved out onto their property for some yummy golden light outdoor images. 

Thank you, thank you F family, again, for entrusting your memories with me. Enjoy a few of my favorites from our evening together!<3

one year old adorableness | alpharetta baby photographer

One of my favorite things about what I do is photographing families as their children grow. This is one of those families and I consider it such a joy to work with them in particular. I first met the Wells when "Little Bear" was just 8 days new and absolutely loved them from the first minute. We always have so much to talk about and all 3 are naturals in front of the camera.

This year we met at the Big Creek Greenway and walked to a little spot where I like to take families. The trees were just beginning to turn and although the mosquitos were downright evil (lol) the light was perfect on this evening. There is so much love in this family and it was so special for me to have the opportunity to capture the Wells again this year. Thank you Jackie and Matt for another beautiful session! Enjoy some of my favorites!

precious 7 day old boy | alpharetta newborn photographer

As a photographer, I get to witness many precious occasions with the families that I meet. These times are even more special when I'm asked to photograph a good friend's special moments. That's exactly what this session was for me. My good friend gave birth to her second child, a precious baby boy, and invited me to her home to capture their new family of four and baby R's newborn portraits. Big sister, who I photographed at 2 years old, was so proud of her baby and loved getting to hold and kiss him in their pictures together. Little man R was as precious as he could be and I am loving all of his newborn portraits, especially that I had a chance to use the newborn Braves hat again! Congrats, W Family, on your perfect new addition! Here are a few of my favorites from our session - Enjoy!

One Year Session | Johns Creek Baby Photographer

Miss Avery is ONE!!!
Miss Avery is ONE!!! This was my first session back from maternity leave. I cannot tell you how excited I was to be back photographing these adorable kids  We met at a beautiful park in Johns Creek. The weather was absolutely perfect too! 

Avery, her big brother Luke, and big sister Addison were too cute together. I loved my evening with them! I brought my 6 week old newborn Ryan as my “assistant” to the session and Avery NEEDED to have him. It was the most precious thing ever. Mom snuggled Ryan while I did the shoot. Then every time she walked away, Avery would reach her arms out and squeal for them to come back. At first we thought Miss Avery just wanted mom but later figured out she has a baby obsession. Might be time for baby Adams #4 ??? Right Amber? 

Adams family, I had a blast with your children and hope that you enjoy these images! Happy 1st Birthday Avery!!!

one year old boy photos | Atlanta Family Photographer

This little boy couldn't have been more adorable for his one year photos! I've met his momma through a mutual friend and have gotten to know her a little bit through social events. I was thrilled when she contacted me about a session for Jackson and the rest of the family.

We met on a perfectly sunny afternoon and little guy was in a great mood and a joy to photograph. The rest of his family was so much fun and you can really see through these images that Jackson is one loved little boy.

C family, I hope these images captured your little love exactly how you want to remember him at this cute stage in his life. He is one lucky boy to have the love of so many wonderful people!

precious baby boy | Roswell Newborn Photographer

I was thrilled when Danyella and Wes contacted me about a newborn session for their new precious boy, Lucas. I can't ever say enough about how the specialness of newborn sessions. It's such a sweet and fleeting time in a family's life and I'm always so honored to be asked to capture the makeup of a new family.


We had such a wonderful afternoon together, baby Lucas was as sweet as he could be and I loved getting to chat with his mom and dad during our breaks. I've known Danyella and her family for several years and they are such great people. I've met Wes a couple times so enjoyed this chance to get to know him and Danyella as a couple. They are already such great parents, Lucas is so lucky to have them! 


Thank you so much, M family, for inviting me to photograph your beautiful newborn baby boy and new family of three:)  I wish you nights full of sleep and days full of joy! You have so many fun times ahead of you with sweet Lucas. 

adorable brother and sister | Johns Creek Child Photographer

How cute are these two kiddos?? They belong to some good friends of ours and I had so much fun capturing their busy and fun personalities on this sunny evening in March. Michael is 100% boy and loved throwing money in the water fountains, growling like a dinosaur/monster, and running & jumping all over the place! Miss Madeleine is absolutely adorable as you can see, with her piggie tails, cute little walk, and "so big" expressions. 

Thank you for asking me to capture your beautiful kids this spring, G family! I had so much fun playing with Michael and Madeleine and capturing their little selves and big personalities. I hope you will enjoy these images for many years to come!

beautiful new addition | Johns Creek Baby Photographer

I can't say enough great things about this session and the beautiful family that you'll see here. I just love newborn sessions and this one was so much fun. And you will not believe how amazing this momma looks, just 8 days after giving birth! I'm so impressed.

Chelsey was a sorority sister of mine at Samford and she and her husband recently moved to Atlanta and to open their own location of Iron Tribe Fitness. I loved catching up with her, meeting her husband Chaz, hearing about their new business and of course, photographing their beautiful new addition Nora! Such a special family.

Nora was an absolute angel during our session. She slept, let us pose her sweetly, and took snuggle and eating breaks with mommy and daddy and then was ready to get back to work! I just love how the images turned out from our session.

Thank you, Tillman family, for allowing me to capture Nora during these precious, early days of her life! You have such a sweet and beautiful girl and she is so blessed to have you as parents! I wish you all the best during this magical time:)

Happy 1st Birthday Millie! 

This precious girl is the cutest ball of joy. Always cheerful and grinning, she was a great model! Big sister Claire is one of my son Jack's friends- he loves her and talks about her almost daily. Sweet kids. 

Millie's session took place at her home and we made sure to get some sweet shots of the birthday girl, big sis, and the two of them together. It was a super fun morning.  We ended the session with a cake smash where cake ended up everywhere! Even between Millie's toes:) I'd say it was a success!

Thank you, P family, for hiring me to capture Millie on her 1st birthday! Your girls are so sweet and I'm so thankful to have you all as friends!

two year old lifestyle photos | Johns Creek Family Photographer

I just wrapped up an amazing course over at Clickin Moms- Mastering Natural Light Indoors. This is one that I have continually heard about and has been on my wishlist of courses since joining CM. The timing of this course was perfect, especially one in which I could work on indoor shooting while it's cold outside!

This class did not disappoint. It challenged me and in the process grew my understanding of light, how it behaves, and how to utilize different types of light and light sources in my images. I'm excited about continuing to use all that I've learned in my indoor photography of both Jack and my clients.

Here is my overshare of images I took during the course!

one year old little guy | Atlanta Baby Photographer

Joseph, how in the world are you ONE?? Wasn't it just yesterday that we did your newborn session? Crazy how fast time flies.

I have absolutely LOVED being able to photograph this little guy during his first year of life. We did sessions when he was a newborn, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, and now one year.  It has been a pleasure to watch him grow and see what new things he's doing at each stage. Joseph is such a precious and beautiful baby and his mom and dad are so loving and attentive, he's lucky to have them.

Thank you so much, Alicia and Josh, for hiring me to be Joseph's first year photographer. I can't begin to describe how much fun I've had at our sessions, how I've enjoyed getting to know you all, and how much I've loved seeing Joseph grow!

I was so excited about this session for my friends the Gersters and hoped that we would get lucky and have a warm December session. Not so much, it was freezing!!!

We got some really sweet shots in the short time we were together but will be finishing this session on a warmer day. So look for more of this beautiful family soon!

9 month old cutie pie | milton family photographer

I can't say enough about how much I love this family! I have had the pleasure of photographing cutie pie Joseph when he was a newborn, at 3 months, 6 months, and now 9 months. It has been so fun to see how much he's grown at each milestone and I have really enjoyed getting to know his parents.

This little boy is so loved by his mommy and daddy and has such a precious personality that you can already see at just 9 months old. For this session, we met at a historic park and covered bridge in Ball Ground. Joseph's mommy always chooses beautiful locations and this one was no different. We had a great evening and I absolutely loved capturing Joseph at this stage of his sweet little life:)

baby girl baptism | Atlanta Family Photographer

I had the pleasure of photographing Juliette's baptism last Saturday. It was a super fun session and a beautiful and meaningful service and I truly enjoyed being part of this day for the Rudolf family. 

The Rudolf's are friends of a friend of mine and after talking with Cheri I realized that I had met her mom once before at a cookie swap last Christmas. They are an incredibly fun family and I totally felt welcome and like I was one of the guests on this important day.  And Miss Juliette was the happiest baby ever- all I had to do was call her name and she would give me the hugest grin!:) 

I love how all of the images turned out from the baptism and am honored that I was there to witness sweet Juliette's baptism.  You have a beautiful family!

Thank you, Rudolf family, for asking me to capture this special day for you!

Johnson Family Session | Alpharetta, Milton, Johns Creek Family Photographer

The Johnsons are a family that we know from church and always enjoy their company. Through birthday parties and a Christmas eve party, we've met the whole extended family so I knew this would be a fun evening.

Mimmy and Poppy wanted to have the session at their amazing home which Poppy designed and built before he retired. It really is gorgeous and the perfect place for family photos.  I couldn't have picked a better spot if I tried.

I seriously felt like I was part of the family during this session. Not only did we have the best time during the shoot, but I was invited to share dinner with them and hang out. And, not to mention, Mimmy is an amazing cook!  It was a great night. One of the granddaughters even told me that I was the "funnest photographer ever" which is one of my favorite compliments ever!

Thank you, Johnsons, for allowing me to capture your beautiful family this year! I had the best time with you all.

Tub Play | Alpharetta Photographer, Atlanta Family Photographer

Our little guy LOVES bath time! One afternoon, we decided to let him have a go in the big tub in our master bath. He had a blast, of course. As you can see, there's a large mirror right above the tub. Jack used that to come up with this game... he would squat down in the tub, call "jaaaaackiiiieeee," and jump up and *surprise* himself. It was great fun for him and we love watching him come up with cute games on his own. We look forward to lots more "bathie" games with you, Jack!
