Coopers Furnace Engagement Session In Cartersville, GA – Chrissie + Ryan ENGAGED!

By Kelley / November 9, 2015 /

Chrissie is a San Diego transplant. Ryan is one of the rare wonders who was actually born and raised in Georgia. I haven’t met many folks here who didn’t migrate into the Atlanta area. They met through mutual friends and have known each other for almost six years. I get the feeling these two have…

Atlanta Contemporary Art Center Wedding – Will + Claire Got Married!

By Kelley / October 26, 2015 /

The show must go on. Or something like that. Even when it rains. It was drizzly on and off throughout this wedding day, which forced the ceremony and reception inside of the Atlanta Contemporary Art Center. The locals in the art center already embraced the rain. This was a fun reminder to stumble upon during Claire…

Downtown Atlanta Family Photography Session – Rand Family

By Kelley / October 19, 2015 /

I love little kids. Some never need any prompting to show me their belly buttons. Like this one up above. I’ve known Wyatt since before he was born. These boys. They’re just delicious. I want to hug em and squeeze em and calle them Evan and Wyatt. I love how sweet they can be in…

Lake Burton, GA Engagement Photography Session – Laura + Charlie – ENGAGED!

By Kelley / October 12, 2015 /

Right from the start, these two overwhelmed me with their kindness and hospitality. Even offering me a guest room up at Lake Burton because it was a bit of a drive from Atlanta. We started on the upper level of Laura’s dad’s boathouse. It was such a gorgeous afternoon. The weather was perfect! I may…

Piedmont Park Engagement Photography Session – Vanessa + Josh – ENGAGED!

By Kelley / October 5, 2015 /

Vanessa + Josh are transplants from Philadelphia. They are both accountants and met through work. In an email before their engagement session, she had told me they were not your standard bean counters. And that was the truth. These two were over the top fun combined with a dry sense of humor. My kind of…

Piedmont Park And Rhodes Hall Engagement Session – Amanda + Jake ENGAGED!

By Kelley / September 28, 2015 /

Amanda + Jake are the sweetest. We met at Winn Park just a couple of blocks from Piedmont Park. They brought their puppy Mickey. (He’s not really a puppy any more, but I call all dogs puppies. Even when they’re over ten. Because they have soft ears.) He was the cutest! They brought along a…

By Kelley / September 14, 2015 /

I had the pleasure of getting Ella to myself for the first portion of this session. I love getting one-on-one time with high school seniors and having the time to just talk about anything and everything. She is a thoughtful soul who is going to do great things with her life. I just know it.…

Cha + Ryan – ENGAGED! – Taylor Brawner Park, Smyrna GA Engagement Photography Session

By Kelley / August 31, 2015 /

Right from the start, I knew I liked these two. We took a couple minutes to decompress from a start that was a few minutes late and ultimately did not affect our time together. We made a few photographs where we first met and started walking. I was able to tease them a little and…
