Athens and Watkinsville's most awesome portrait experience for babies, kids and families
All of the people around us they say
Can they be that close
Just let me state for the record
We’re giving love in a family dose
Living life is fun and we’ve just begun
To get our share of the world’s delights
high hopes we have for the future
And our goal’s in sight
All the way down from North Carolina, these sweet sisters made my Labor so much fun!!!
And we sang it over….and over….and over again
But it was worth it to get these gorgeous baby photos! My favorite part is that the dress in the first two photos was mama’s when she was a baby! We won’t talk about how long ago that was, now will we
As you scroll you’ll see her change from vintage baby to modern baby. It’s one of the many reasons I love shooting at the studio….so many looks all in one location
That’s how I try to approach all my sessions with kids, from their perspective! Really, what kid wants to hang out with some grown up and be told what to do? Heck, I’m not a kid and there are even times *I* don’t want to do that
So, the best way to put them at ease is to just be their friend. You can play and have a good time with them while still capturing their wonderful expressions. Of course, you have to be willing to make yourself look a little silly to the other adults around, but secretly, I am always dying for an excuse to be silly!
These two brothers came by the studio with their mom and dad this morning to hang out and play. And that’s exactly what we did! Did you know that elephants and bears could fly? Did you also know that you can play a game that is a wonderful mix of “red light, green light” and “freeze tag” and get amazing smiles? I think the best game all day was making an elephant jump out of the soft box
I hope mom and dad had as much fun as I did hanging out this morning. For two hours I got to pretty much forget about my torn abdominal muscle and just be a kid again. Great way to start a Wednesday if you ask me. Well, that and a pain pill
This sweet little thang had her newborn portraits done with us back in March. It’s hard to believe that at 9lb.9oz she weighs less at 4 months than the last baby I gave birth to LOL! LK was a pure mess this afternoon. All smiles…with a few…ummm, not so smiley faces. Just scroll down…you’ll see
This last one is my FAVORITE. Oh man…She is like…seriously lady…WTH are you doing!?
