A tid bit of our personal life!

Alyssa Jo – {BABY- Cartersville, GA}

Sweet baby Alyssa Jo, she was so tiny and such a good baby, I could have photographed her sweet sleep all day.   I love the little smiles she gave and her dream expressions- I’m convinced we dream at this age…just not sure of what!  The purple  baby cocoon, was one that I made (a little side project I’ve been working on, as well as hand made hair flowers), I hope to offer these to clients soon, SO if you are interested in them please let me know.  I was surprised at how well she liked the cocoon!  I almost felt bad taking her out of it because she was sleeping so well and seemed so cuddled in it. 
Congratulations to mom and dad, she is a beauty!

Georgia AllStars- {PERSONAL – My Girls, Woodstock GA}

Brooklyn and Gracelyn have both been enjoying gymnastics classes over the past few months and finally had a chance to show off their new skills.  Here are a few snapshots we took amidst the rush of proud parents.

Pre Halloween Spookshots

Being that my birthday falls nearly on Halloween, I have grown up celebrating the day with a big birthday blowout/ Halloween Party.  This year we are having a black and white ghouls and glam party and along with our black and white food, drinks, decor, and favors, I wanted to decorate the walls with some wicked looking imagery.  So we took the girls out to the sticks, literally because the area had been burnt badly, and did some photos.  I tried to emulate the vintage look, ever notice how no one seemed to smile or show facial expression in old photos?  Maybe it’s just me! 
Doing this today with kids is HARD, especially yours because A: they aren’t going to listen to mom and dad and B: they’ve been trained to “SMILE”.  You would think they would be good at pouting and not smiling, but I guess at 20months old  and 5 yrs you can’t expect them to do anything you actually want them to.  Brooke however did better than I expected!  She has several different “faces” she likes to do when the camera comes out, she calls this here her “mad/angry or sassy” look and I’d have to agree on the mad/angry!  Grace on the other hand was more interested in all the burnt things (a hammer amongst other things) and this cool tree tunnel that she darted off to (and fell on the way back) hence the  leaves all over her.  
So after a whopping 10 mins the kids were DONE with photos, Grace had thrown herself on the the nice black burnt ground because Brooke wanted to hold her hand and have her stand beside her “like I’m doing” (oh yes in her pretty white top and skirt). And Brooke was upset that Grace was “ruining” the photos!  kids :) love em!!!!… well these were my favorites, some outtakes too. 

Brookes spooktacular look!

This is Gracie’s surprise look she does on command or when she’s actually surprise or excited about something!

Checking herself out, yep- all dirty!

Crazy Love – { LOVE }

We were inspired by the song during a late night of American Idol Karaoke, which I swore I would never participate in, but now am addicted to and would like to formally apologize to all that have to suffer through listening to us sing/yell!  So we put together a little photo montage together to it with some our favorite silly,crazy, bold and daring wedding images we have captured over the years.  Some of them explain why we love our “job” so much!  We have had so many great moments I couldn’t fit them all in, but this is a good overview. Hopefully we will have many more years to come of great moments and wonderful clients, so fun looking back at all of them.

Little Ones {portraits – BABY}

 Celebrating Fathers Day, Grace and her friends and their daddy’s were all lined up for their close up. I had approximately 1 minute to get the shot (for fear of tee tee and tears, and the dads!), but I am happy with the shot!

Getting in to Trouble!

So lately little Gracie has been a little naughty, but all in fun and learning.  This is her playing in “her” cabinet which is full of things that are unopened or things that can’t hurt her, however climbing in as you will see could very well put her in the danger zone and she knows she’s not supposed to do it.  This time I caught her in action.

This is the look, that you know she is going to do something she’s not supposed to! 

 

 

 

She got it!

My Girls!

So it’s been a while since I have posted any photos of the girls (we’ve been really busy :) which is always a good thing!). O I thought I should post a few over the next few weeks.

Here are some of my favorites from March and April (I know- bad mommy :( ))

Her “sassy” look, she always says, “I like her mommy she looks sassy”- too cute!

Those baby blues…

Brannon and Kainoa Real Wedding Feature

Brannon and Kainoa are dear friends of ours and their wedding was one that meant so much to be a part of that  I was thrilledwhen Style Me Pretty told us they were going to feature them on their site!  Here is the link to Style Me Pretty’s feature story.  As always, wonderful job SMP!  Below is a little sneak peak of an image they featured of ours, but you really need to read the story :)

Sunny Skies over Hawaii?

Finally there is sun,  I feel like it’s been rainy and cold for months now, but it’s actually only been about a week.  So since the sun has finally returned I thought I would post some photos of the girls taken last month.  Gracie loves licking the salt water off the rocks-I know it’s gross, but see her face when I took it away!  Pray for sunny skies to stick around.

 

she’s so sassy with those glasses!

Check out the poor little goby she caught.

Enjoying the salty rocks

Mad because I took it out of her mouth.

If I didn’t know any better I’d say she’s eyeing up those rocks.
