Dixie

7/20/2021

Anyone who's lost a pet knows just how truly heartbreaking it is. They stick by our side as we grow and change, they comfort us in times of sorrow and keep us laughing throughout. They become not only our best friends, but our family.

Brooke was given Dixie for Christmas at nine years old and they quite literally grew up together. From childhood, to college, to adulthood, Dixie has been there every step of the way. Sadly, though, Dixie had gotten to that point in life where Brooke knew it was almost time to let her go. We went back to their childhood home and showered Dixie with love while taking her on a final adventure on the land where she played as a puppy.

I'm so thankful to spend these emotional, meaningful times with clients and their aging pets, documenting their last days together with an End of Life session. If your pet is approaching this stage of life, I highly recommend taking an evening to make memories like these that you can hold onto for years to come.

Brooklyn

7/12/2021

This beautiful gem of a girl has grown into a caring, thoughtful, funny, creative, responsible and all-around incredible young woman. It has been so amazing watching her grow over the last thirteen years, and now, she's a high school graduate!

Brooklyn wanted to do a vintage-inspired photoshoot to commemorate the occasion. I couldn't ask for a prettier model or a cooler location (umm can I live in this hotel please)!

It was so hard to narrow down favorites for this blog, but keep an eye on my Instagram to see additional photos popping up!

Congratulations, Brooklyn!!!

A Driftwood Beach Family Session

5/4/2021

What a bucket list shoot come true!

I first met this beautiful family a couple years ago when Nicole reached out to me to photograph her husband, Dominick's homecoming at the airport (to see those photos, check out this blog: Home for the Holidays). He had been overseas for a full year and capturing the pure joy and genuine emotion that came over their family that day is one of my all-time favorite memories as a photographer.

All of that said, when they moved to the Savannah area, she mentioned how beautiful Jekyll Island's Driftwood Beach was and how she would love to do a family session there someday. Well, the day finally arrived! What an absolute dream this location is! Not only is it unique and almost fantasy-like, it's chock full of fun for the kiddos too. The boys had so much fun searching for and catching crabs, as well as climbing on all of the giant pieces of driftwood scattered about the beach.

There's so much more to this island and I can't wait to explore it even more on my next shoot down there! Who's in??

Pillow Fight!

4/25/2021

Ever dreamed of having a massive, feathery pillow fight?? ME TOO!

I had SO MUCH FUN on this shoot with Dominique and her amazing, sweet, free-spirited, little ones! They were the perfect family for this styled session. Feathers still sneak out of my purse, car and camera bag, bringing a smile to my face... and I just know Dominique will be finding feathers around her house for months to come (y'all, there were eeeeeeeeverywhere)!

Can't wait to do more playful shoots like this one!

Anthony

1/20/2021

Ok, sure, he's a great looking dude, it's hard to deny... but get to know him as a person and he gets EVEN BETTER!

Anthony is an Atlanta-based actor, model and all around big-hearted goofball. It's always so much fun to shoot and laugh together and I feel like it really shows in the photos we get from our sessions. This blog includes images from two separate shoots we did.

I really love the opportunities I get to work with fellow entertainment industry folks (for those who don't know, I'm an actor in addition to being a photographer), whether it's headshots, photos to build a modeling portfolio or lifestyle images to help with booking print work.

In addition to acting and modeling, Anthony is an incredible vocalist and musician who

made the big move to ATL from New York to pursue his dreams. Join me in following his career and watching out for him on the big screen!

Nia + John

1/6/2021

You know when your cheeks start hurting because you've been smiling SO much!? Well, that's what Nia and John did to me (not complaining AT ALL)!

This newly engaged pair was so much fun to adventure with! It's no wonder they are so happy with a shared love of the outdoors, kickball, exploration, playfulness and each other! I truly enjoyed every moment of this beautiful engagement session. Thank you, Nia and John!

Skyler + Yuri + Sasha

12/1/2020

The very first conversation I ever had with Skyler back in 2014 started like many others do for me-- "What are your goals in life? What are you passionate about?"
Her response was, "I want to be a Mom."
I've asked that question umpteen times and usually, the answer is some kind of career or travel goal, so her response stopped me in my tracks. It was so beautiful and it clearly came from her heart.

Now, six years later, this amazing being IS a Mom. I couldn't be happier for her and her husband, Yuri. These two have had a long love story and it's been such a wonderful journey, witnessing this story unfold.
I can't wait to meet little Sasha in a few weeks and watch these two as they become parents and build their family together. Much love.

Abbey + Nick

11/16/2020

Have you ever met two people and felt this energy from each of them that just perfectly matched that of the other? Like, when both people are vibrating at the same level? If not, meet Abbey + Nick. These two are both so sincere, carrying a light around wherever they go. What a perfect day, shooting with them in celebration of their first anniversary together!

Britannia + Patrick's Backyard Bliss

11/13/2020

In a year of such uncertainty and change, one thing is for sure: the love of Britannia and Patrick.

In a very intimate Brookhaven backyard ceremony with their closest friends and family, these two tied the knot. It was beautiful to see the love and kindness of everyone who helped bring this all together.

Britannia and Patrick have built a creative, supportive, playful life together and I couldn't be happier for them or more grateful to have been a part of not only their wedding day, but their lives.

Congratulations and wishes for a lifetime of pure happiness!

The Sweetest Surprise

9/2/2020

Daniel is always surprising Tatiana... so she decided it was time to turn the tables with the ultimate surprise! SURPRISE!! You're going to be a Daddy!!
I was so thrilled when she reached out to me to be a part of this life changing moment for them. These are the kinds of shoots I, as a storyteller, live for. Tatiana and I had to pretend like we were just doing a regular couples shoot in the park as we looked for the perfect spot to share the news, and once we did, he was TOTALLY shocked! It was so heartwarming to watch them in that moment.
Thank you for inviting me to photograph the start of this adventure for you two!
