Got 30 minutes?  How about some new headshots?  Torie was such a natural in front of the camera she made it EFFORTLESS to get incredible images!  Truly, she was a photographers dream.  She needed no direction what-so-ever and just naturally assumed a relaxed position.  30 minutes people!!!

The first weekend in October I had the fortune to photograph some dear friends wedding.  The wedding was on the gorgeous campus of Berry College in Rome, Georgia.   I have to say, I was beyond nervous.   Shannon and Andy are dear friends of mine and I wanted their images to be perfect!   I can’t thank my awesome second shooter Robin Shetler enough…she was an amazing help and took some fantastic shots throughout the day.

Andy and Shannon were so incredible to work with all day…..super relaxed and super excited for their special day.  They chose to have a “first look” before their ceremony, so we had a couple of hours to play and get some fantastic portraits of them seeing each other for the first time in their dress and tux.  All of these photos were taken on the Berry  College campus.  I have so many favorites from the wedding, but here are a few.   Andy and Shannon, thanks so much for letting me be a part of this incredible day.  It was really a special experience for me to be a part of!

This is one of my all time favortie shots…..ever.

Shannon and her father, Danny, walking down the aisle!

Meet the new Mr. and Mrs.!


Older sister, Renee, gave a touching toast to the happy couple….

It made Shannon a tad weepy…

 

I put together a little slide show of my favorite images that you can check out by clicking on the link below.  Sorry I couldn’t embed it, but apparently WordPress and Animoto don’t play nice together.

I love taking images for people I love.  Rob and Kirsten are two of our best friends and boy, oh boy, do they know how to make a cute baby.  Meet 4 month old Gibson.  We met for a session a couple of weeks ago at Piedmont Park in Atlanta, GA and had a fantastic time.

I love this sweet little moment between the new family…

Is there anything cuter than a proud new papa???

A little fun playing with dad…

Thanks to Rob and Kirsten for letting me get my hands on little Giblet!  Love you guys!

Double Vision

Be prepared for cuteness overload.  Meet my youngest clients Alden and Harper!

Sweet little Alden…

and cutie pie Harper….

Both Alden AND Haper discovered that they have tongues during our photoshoot!  It was hysterical looking through my images from this shoot.  In about 80% of their images they had their tongues sticking out!

So…..I took lots of pictures of baby toes!  My favorite!

Big sister took a moment to have a few pictures taken as well…

Even the dogs joined in on the fun!

Thanks so much to my wonderful clients for this sweet little family shoot!

Party Animals….

A couple of weeks ago I had the distinct pleasure of photographing my neighbor’s sons second birthday party.  They were total party animals!

Can you BELIEVE this cake???  The best part is that it was as delicious as it is beautiful.  It was seriously a work of art.  Three layers of heaven…..The cake was from Matty Cakes here in Atlanta, GA if you have a special occasion coming up!  Heck……even if you don’t have a special occaision……..one of these cakes needs to be on your bucket list!

Plenty of gifts for the birthday boy!

A little refresher for all the parents….

Along with a little Fox Brothers Barbeque…..yummmmmmmmmm

Margaritas, Fox Brothers BBQ, AND face painting?  They pulled out all the stops!  I think the birthday boy had a great time!

And now…..cake time!

Thanks so much for letting me be a part of your special celebration Cole!  In closing a pic of my favorite little decorations….

Happy Fathers Day!

I couldn’t have been more excited to have the chance to photograph these precious little 2 year old twins.  Mom was having these pictures taken to give to her husband as a special father’s day surprise (so sweet)!  When we arrived mom said the kids were a little shy, so we sat on the floor and played with them…..after about 5 minutes we were best buds.  We ran in the yard, swang in the swing, and had playtime indoors afterwards to cool off.   My sweet husband came along to help out and these kids were so sweet he actually said (and I quote) “These kids are so cute they make MY uterus ache.”  Ha! Ha!

Thanks so much to the Pearce Family for having me come into your home.  I hope your husband enjoyed his father’s day gift!

While we were doing headshots we sold a condo……

Bought a house….

Moved (there are no pictures of the moving……it wasn’t pretty).

Did a maternity session with an absolutely gorgeous mother and daughter and caught this precious little moment….

My sweet pooch Frei (pronounced like a french fry) was featured in Atlanta magazine as “Pet of the Month” for their February issue…isn’t he adorable???

Had a great South Atlanta Flickr (SAF) Administrator shoot with my buddies down south of town.  We had the great opportunity to photograph artist Kawai Laurencin.  I literally had to pause for a moment during this shoot to just pick my jaw up off the ground…his talent is just beyond belief and he couldn’t be a more warm natured soul.

Did a group shoot with South Atlanta Flickr

I also became volunteer coordinator for Atlanta Photography Exhibit….get involved and check us out!  We have several exhibits and fun events coming up this year.  Check out the calendar at the website here and send me an email at meg@futurephotogs.org if you are interested in volunteering!

And now……a moment to recover!

Giddy

I honestly don’t even know where to start…. I’ve never been so giddy to get up at 6:00am and work for 13 straight hours IN MY LIFE.  I’ve had the most amazing last two days schlepping gear, adjusting lights, exploring down dark and dusty spider web infested hallways, watching, and learning from someone I consider one of the best in the business.   Thanks so much to Zack Arias, Meghan Arias, and Used Film for including me in this shoot and for being the generous, humble, well natured people you are.   You also happen to be a heck of a lot of fun to hang out with.

For you photography lovers out there……you are just going to DIE when you see his images from the last few days!  Congratulations to Zack for taking some “personal time” and keeping the creativity alive.

P.S.- I know……this is the first EVER post without a picture, but this was all about Zack’s vision….keep an eye on his blog and you are bound to see some images pop up over the course of the next several months.

P.S.S.- Thank you to the creators of Diet Coke for providing enough caffeine to keep me going throughout the last couple of days as well……I think I have a 12 pack per day habit now.
