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!

Hey everyone-  I wanted to introduce you to Dwight Raby, a local Atlanta musician that is on the rise.  He has a new CD coming out literally any minute now.  I just heard the first single and it is amazing!  We had a couple of sessions together (one location shoot and one studio shoot) and I wanted to show you a few of my favorites.  Enjoy!

The first one is my absolute favorite…

And one more for fun…

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….

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!

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.

Atlanta Midtown Help Portrait Final Stats:

46 killer volunteers

52 families

139 portraits

It’s a wrap Atlanta.  Everyone’s generosity, time, committment, and love produced a heartwarming event which brought smiles to the faces of many that really needed something to smile about this time of year.  There were some GORGEOUS families that were DECKED OUT in their best holiday outfits yesterday.  You made us feel really special and honored to have the chance to take YOUR portraits.

Thanks so much to the volunteers that made yesterday run so smoothly.  You processed pictures, lugged your photography gear through the freezing rain, and shook the hell outta some stuffed animals to make a LOT of  babies smile.  This would not have been possible without each and every one of you.  Check out a link of said stuffed animal shaking here (courtesy of Julie Harnage Photography)…..

Also- Thanks to Families First for partnering with us, scheduling the families for their portraits, and allowing us to use their Midtown offices to host the very first Help Portrait in midtown Atlanta.  Their dedicated staff made this so easy to plan and coordinate.

Be sure to check out tonight’s CBS evening news and CNNs stories (airing at 6pm EST) tonight about some of the other Help Portrait events around the country.

P.S.  If you want to check out some of the behind the scenes pictures you can check them out here.

P.S.S.  I will not be posting pictures of any of the families from yesterday to protect their privacy.  Just know they looked fabulous.  Thanks for understanding.  : )

P.S.S.S.  I will, however, include a funny shot of some of our volunteers!
