Beth, Maggie & Abby

Beth is one of my favorite people, and her little girl Maggie is just gorgeous and so sweet. Beth will be having another baby any day now, and I got to take some pictures of the girls just in time. Beth asked Maggie what she was going to be when Abby came along... a "big what?" And Maggie says "a big... puppy!" So cute...

Kristina

Kristina is my first senior rep! We got to take some senior pictures of her in Downtown Lawrenceville, and then we made some great postcards for her to hand out to friends to encourage them to book their senior pictures as well.

Babies

My friend (and fellow photographer- bellabluphotography.com) Carrie and I got together with the other Callie to photograph their babies- here are a few fun ones...

Ciera

I got to take some senior pictures of beautiful Ciera the day of her senior prom. Is she a model or what?

Sam Presten @ 3 Months

I've been able to photograph Sam since the beginning (his mom's maternity pictures?) He slept the entire time during his newborn session, but he was wide awake (and SO happy and well behaved!) for this, his 3 month session:

What I've Been Doing...

This is why I have been so busy! Puppies are a lot of work! He's preoccupied with a new toy right now, so I'll try to get a few posts up here- I'm so behind on this blog! Here's Samson, our new family member. He was a stray, so we're not sure of his breed, but probably redbone hound and boxer. He's a sweetheart with a ton of personality and fits right in with us...

Bridesmaids

This is an idea I had after having so much fun doing photo shoots with my own best friends. It is the bridesmaid gift of all bridesmaid gifts: professional hair and make-up and a high-fashion photo shoot for you and all of your girls. I’ll give you personalized gift certificates wrapped in the signature Achor & Eden packaging to present to each girl, and each bridesmaid will receive a CD of all of the images after the shoot. Here is an example session with some of my favorite girls:

Todd & Missy

Missy and Todd are getting married in August, and they are so obviously in love- it made pictures so fun and easy! We went to Piedmont Park (with what seemed like the rest of Atlanta!) for pictures on the most beautiful day so far this year!

Poetry

Abany (the musician from the last post!) and I have this shared love for vintage birds and trees (note my logo... her logo has a bird as well), so she gave me this amazing bird journal, but it was the note inside that was so important to me:

"May this book chronicle your beautiful life of redemption from the Valley of Achor and the hope that we find in knowing of our future in Eden!"

I thought that was a gorgeous picture of what my name- Achor & Eden- stands for. I want it to be a reminder of where we came from and where we're headed, thanks to the forgiveness we're offered in Christ.
