Justin & Rebecca - Married!

I photographed this wedding with my friend Mala from Mala Hyder Photography. It reminded me of the wedding from Father of the Bride- they had their reception at the bride's parents' house- a gorgeous white house with a front porch and Southern charm. Plus, the couple looked like movie stars :)

The Zafft Family

Aren't these just the cutest kids?? And you can't beat Piedmont Park in the fall.

Josiah's First Birthday

My best friend since 2nd grade Callie (yep, we have the same name...) has her own little guy now, Josiah, who turned ONE on November 4. I was fortunate enough to photograph his birthday celebration, which undoubtedly goes down in history as the most traumatic birthday experience ever. 

Exhibit A: Parents place hat on child. Child pulls elastic string...

...string pops. Child doesn't like that.

Exhibit B: Parents give child cake with candle. Child wonders what fire feels like.

Child doesn't like what fire feels like...

...at all.

But luckily child enjoys the cake and forgets about the injuries.

These are some of my favorites. Who knew bath time was such a good photo op?

The Kotronis Family

I spent an afternoon in Smyrna with the Kotronis family, trying desperately to get baby Ian to smile for the camera. After lots and lots of super serious faces and even more side-of-the-head shots, we decided to give in and do the family shot Ian-style... love it:

He can totally work the serious faces though- what a model!:

We sat down for some father/son shots, and cracked up when we noticed the irony of this. See the frog father/son? And the icecream cone vs. the bottle? Yeah, totally unintentional.

The {Not} Bridal Shower

As part of our NotWedding campaign, we had a "not" bridal shower at Chocolate Pink Cafe, one of our favorite places in all of Atlanta. Our NotBrides enjoyed some fake cake and gifts just so we could snap a few promo shots, but they look pretty genuine, huh? 

Aimee - Graduated!

I had the opportunity to photograph Aimee as she celebrated her graduation from SCAD. Aimee is an incredibly creative and talented friend of mine who makes everything from her own paper and books to clothing, and I am so excited to see what she does next. 

The NotWedding

I'm putting together this killer event called The NotWedding. It will be at Opera on Sunday November 16 and will be a night full of food, dancing and free stuff! We're having a real wedding- one like you've never seen before- and YOU become the wedding guest.
