Baby Amelia | Atlanta Baby Photographer

Baby Amelia surprised her Mommy & Daddy and arrived a few weeks early. I’ve been photographing this wonderful family for the past three years and photographed Amelia’s big sister Anna. I love seeing how much my little clients grow in between their portrait sessions.

and of course her beautiful sister had to get a little time in front of the camera too

Baby Ian | Atlanta Baby Photographer

Angela — Sat, 12 Dec 2009 19:18:29 +0000

Smyrna Baby Ian arrived a little ahead of schedule so I had the opportunity to photograph him two times! The first time was for his newborn baby portrait session and the second time was just a couple of days after Thanksgiving for an extended family portrait session. You would not believe what a poser he is for being such a brand new little guy. When we got to the part of the family session where I was photographing him with his Grandparents, Aunts and Uncle he would look right at the camera and pose, I don’t think I’ve had a newborn ever do that every. single. time. I think he has a future as a model!

Baby Ian is such a blessing to his family as they have waited for him a long time, what a wonderful early Christmas present he is. I fell in love with his family and even his sweet dog Tanner. Tanner would come stand by me and nuzzle his head on my hand and wait for me to pet him. Then he would put his head on my leg if I was sitting down. I’m pretty sure Tanner is one of my most favorite client furry friends I’ve ever met. Thank you so much to Ian’s Mommy & Daddy for choosing me to document your lives during this very special time.

Here are a few images to share from Ian’s newborn session

Did I mention I fell in love with this family? I sure did.

I couldn’t resist showing you Ian’s super cute cousins, this one was from the family portrait session a few days after Thanksgiving, aren’t they cutie pies? They liked me because I had Smarties for them!

Baby Davis | Atlanta Baby Photographer

Atlanta sure is having a newborn baby boom right now and it’s mostly adorable baby boys that I have been photographing here lately. Although a few baby girls have joined the ranks and I will be posting them soon!

Baby Davis was three weeks old when I photographed him. He had the cutest nursery, it was decorated in Chicago Cub’s gear, his parents are die hard cubs fans, they even have a dog named Wrigley! Here are a few to share from my day photographing Atlanta Baby Davis. Isn’t he a cutie pie?

Baby Joshua: 10 Days Old

Angela — Sun, 30 Aug 2009 12:41:38 +0000

Yesterday I traveled to Buckhead here in Atlanta to photograph a super cute 10 day old baby boy Joshua. I think Atlanta is going through a boom of baby boys, he is my fourth newborn boy in a row and I have another one in just a couple of weeks who is scheduled to arrive.

I’ve been busy with commercial work so I have several portrait clients that I need to share with all of you, some very sweet babies and kids here in Atlanta! I’ll be in Los Angeles in November seeing some of my wonderful portrait clients there for fall portraits.

Here’s a few sneak peek shots for Joshua’s family and friends. Thank you to his wonderful parents for welcoming to your home and for being so kind. PS – the cheesecake was FANTASTIC!!!!!!

Baby Anna | Atlanta Newborn Photographer

Angela — Sun, 09 Nov 2008 20:56:56 +0000

Today I traveled to Mableton to photograph a newborn baby girl who is only six days old. I always tell my clients and potential clients that it is so important to have their newborns photographed within their first two weeks because it makes such a difference. Anna was a true testament to that, she was so sleepy and laid back, I think I could have just sat and looked at her all day. She almost shares a birthday with her Dad, so there were quite a few of us scorpios in the house today! Thank you to Anna’s wonderful parents, they were amazing and so sweet and kind.

Oh, she is such a little heartbreaker at only six days old, here are a few from our morning together…

I love it when I catch babies mid-yawn, this modeling thing is hard work!

Baby Elizabeth | Marietta Newborn Photographer

Angela — Fri, 07 Nov 2008 21:08:25 +0000

Earlier this week I traveled to Marietta to photograph a brand new baby girl. Her beautiful Mommy came in last month for her maternity session and now I had the chance to meet her sweet baby.

Miss Elizabeth did not want to go to sleep, she liked staying up and hanging out with us. I’m telling you, these newborns love partying with me. She was so alert and was so tiny and cute. Finally she got tired of us fussing with her and she took a little nap. I love photographing newborns, its such an amazing time for their families and to see how much they change in the first year is mind boggling.

Thank you to the M family for welcoming me to your home and being so kind, it was so much fun and I can’t wait until our next portrait session!

Her Mommy had this beautiful scarf that she got when she went to Paris, I love the color and it made a perfect wrap for baby E.

William & Sofia | Atlanta Twin Photographer

Angela — Sun, 02 Nov 2008 02:51:43 +0000

Back in August I worked with this cutie pie set of twins for a commercial shoot. Today they were my portrait clients and they can now sit up! They were so cute and I just love it when babies are newly sitting, they are just so proud of themselves and their new skill!

Thank you to the V family for welcoming me to your home! You are such a sweet family and I had a wonderful time!

Sofia’s Mommy told me that she is a very serious baby, she sure is cute though and we managed to get some smiles from her, but this is her serious look.

Little Will took a power nap and he was such a happy camper when he woke up! Check out their dog Lenox sitting behind him, he was the best dog ever. So gentle with the babies and such a little love.

Together in the rocking chair…

Last but not least, their beautiful Mommy & Daddy!

It’s Fall Ya’ll | Atlanta Children’s Photographer

Angela — Mon, 27 Oct 2008 00:47:08 +0000

See now that I am back in the south I don’t stick out like a sore thumb when I say ya’ll. I still said it during my 11 years in LA and it would immediately be followed by the question, oh you aren’t from LA are you?

Fall here in Atlanta is BEAUTIFUL! The weather is crisp and so are the leaves, everything is golden and just gorgeous. Yes I’m still behind on my blogging (what else is new right?) so I decided to put several of my recent cuties all in one big post.

I told ya’ll that I’m declaring myself Atlanta’s official twin photographer right? Another set of twins and their little brother, these little guys were so much fun and look how cute they look!

Look at these curls on this toddler boy, oh my goodness and those chocolate brown eyes. PERFECT!

This little one flew in from Los Angeles for her photo shoot! I’ll be photographing her when I’m in LA next month at her home there. She was so sassy, I loved it!

Look at how sweet this little one is with his beautiful Mommy. I love their fall colors they are wearing!

This handsome little guy was so polite and sweet, such a good boy.

And last but not least a beautiful maternity client who is having a baby girl this week!!!

Baby Bryce | Atlanta Newborn Photographer

Angela — Sun, 21 Sep 2008 01:12:41 +0000

Remember a few weeks ago I posted a pregnant belly and told you all to guess if it was a boy or a girl? Well baby boy Bryce came by the studio today for his newborn session. I’m telling you, these Atlanta babies are being so good to me! They are all so very very sleepy! It’s so important for newborn photo sessions to take place within the first few weeks while the babies are still sleepy and bendy, and before newborn acne kicks in, so his Mommy and Daddy get a gold star for coming in asap after he was born!

Bryce was so cute, I think he was one of the most cooperative newborns I’ve met. His big brother even flew in to town to be a part of our session, he looked so proud and happy to have a new little brother. His Mom & Dad are so cute too, lots of smiley faces today from them. They say pregnant women glow but his Mommy was just beaming, glowing, on cloud nine. Bryce only fussed one time and his Dad talked to him softly and rocked him back to sleep. I don’t know about you but seeing a Dad with his new baby is the coolest thing ever, it totally changes them.

Here are a few from our session this afternoon…

With his big brother

See what I mean about how sleepy he was, PERFECT!!!!

And with his beautiful Mama, she is so much fun, we just giggled the entire time.

Baby Jasper | Atlanta Newborn Photographer

Angela — Sat, 13 Sep 2008 19:04:16 +0000

This sweet little baby boy came to the studio earlier this week and he traveled oh so far…. about 2 minutes! His mom was looking at the directions on how to get to the studio and realized that they were just around the corner, that’s my kind of commute!

When they arrived Jasper was wide awake and was ready to party, but let me tell you he was so good, such a sweet baby. Although he did use his Dad for a diaper a few times, it seems like it’s always that Dad’s that babies like to do that to during photo shoots. His parents were wonderful and obviously so in love with their sweet baby and each other.

If any of you out there have a newborn or you are a photographer who has newborn clients, I am here to tell you about something that will make your life so much better. Baby Jasper fell right to sleep as soon as I plugged in my sound machine. It has ten different sounds to choose from, Jasper preferred the heartbeat and the white noise options. It’s only $19.99 from Target and as a Mom of a little one who had colic, it’s a priceless thing to have!

Here are a few little sneak peeks of this sweet little guy.

As you can see from this shot, he was starting to get sleepy, I love baby yawns, so so very cute. I had just plugged in the sound machine just before I took this, I like how his Dad is looking at him, such a sweet moment.

He got a little hungry so his beautiful Mom nursed him and then we put the heartbeat sound on and he fell asleep.
