It started with a sale my mom had a few weeks back. As an artist, and (as my dad would say) “problem” collector, she always has the coolest things. I picked up a few things from her to use as props to shoot with.
I loved the shots I got. So, I’ve been trolling the sales around here in search of weird, quirky stuff that will look good in my pictures. Turned into kind of a fun project…
The first few…
…okay, I am totally making up these numbers now. I have zero idea what week this is for my 365 project. But, whatevs. I am still taking pictures daily. Still annoying my family by doing so. Yet, still improving, so the project continues! I have found that keeping a stash of hershey’s kisses seems to dull their annoyance, at least the annoyance of the little members. I think I need to invest in a Sweetwater 420 stash for some others…

All I can say is thank God for the pictures.
Because describing this day, these people, this location would be impossible. I could not do it justice.
There was so much love, so much joy, and so much beauty at Maggie and Joey’s wedding…as their photographer I felt like all I had to do was just capture it. It was all there. Just capture it, I kept telling myself. The Farmhouse Inn at Hundred Acre Farm was the most beautiful wedding setting I have ever seen. When I pulled up, I looked around and literally said “SHUT. UP.” out loud to myself.
Everyone was so happy to be there and ready for fun. Love it! Maggie and Joey look like the bride and groom cake toppers…just a stunning couple (and so happy and in love!). Thank you so much to the Waybrights for trusting me to capture this unbelievably gorgeous and special day.

This week was a great time for personal shooting. After weddings two weekends in a row (which I loved and am bummed I have no more on the schedule right now. Send your wedding requests my way, brides!), but they are tiring, more like exhausting, so it was nice to have a weekend off and spend some time with my crazy girls and husband.
Pics from this week and some extras…

Ella looks like an angel.
And decked out in her first communion dress and veil at sunset in a beautiful field….well, I couldn’t really take a bad shot of her. What a stunning girl.
Congratulations on your first communion, Ella.

This week was the first that I missed a day. Saturday had a big, fat zero for my 365. However, the soccer game in the morning, followed directly by the out of town wedding that I was shooting are my weak excuse(s).
Soccer game was great. (As a former, and actually still playing, soccer player seeing my girls play soccer is just so much fun.) Wedding was amazing…more on that to come.
So here are my 365 for last week with a few extras….

These guys were up for anything.
Want to shoot at the laundromat in the semi shady part of town with your three little ones? Sure.
Shoot at sunset, which is probably way past their bedtime, on a Monday? Sure.
They were so chill. And awesome. Loved the kids who, in addition, to being adorable were really just super sweet, too. Mark and Michelle were just genuinely fun and really enjoyed their kids and each other.
LOVED this session. Thanks, Lobos family!

I’ll admit, this week was the first week it was a struggle to get a picture a day.
Four sessions, including second shooting a wedding, and I was toast by Sunday.
So, here’s my 365 images, and a few more…

The Sewards came from 4 and a half hours away….just for their session. (gulp.)
I was a little nervous, to be honest. (And unbelievably flattered, too.)
I really, really wanted to do a good (great) job for them. Capture their family. Make them not regret their trip up from Savannah, which is about the most boring ride on Earth. (Yes, that is a fact.)
So my hands were sweating when I got to the shoot. And for once, in Atlanta, it wasn’t even that hot.
It turned out to be a perfect morning. They were just an amazing, loving, beautiful family. Kids were awesome, hard to take a bad picture of them, of any of them actually.
Thanks so much, Sewards, for a wonderful session and making such an effort to have me as your photographer. It meant a ton to me and I hope these images are as special to you.
