Atlanta Wedding Photographers | Project Pin-Up 2009 | Valentine

Valentines day can mean a multitude of things to a multitude of people!  To some, it’s a reminder of the love they don’t have – or the love they might have lost.  To some, it’s a huge sham to make you spend more money on those that you already spend money on probably every other day of the year.  To some it’s a genuine holiday to celebrate those that are close to you. I’ve probably experienced Valentine’s day from all of these perspectives.

Are you lonesome tonight??  Back in 2009 I started shooting Project Pin-Up!  I worked with multiple girls every month to photograph all the months of the year.  For February, I remember wanting to tell some type of story related to Valentines Day.  This year was one of those reminder-of-the-love-I-don’t-have years.  Can’t you tell?

Special thanks to Dr. Jane Barnette for a beautiful makeup job and Gaby Ebeling for her hilarious acting & modeling!  It’s an honor to work with such talented women.

Atlanta Pet Photographer | Samantha & John’s Pug Puppy – Pugsely!

Puppies are adorable!  I’ve always had a soft spot in my heart for pugs.  Samantha & John got Pugsley when he was 8 weeks old!  Such a cutie.  And man this pug can RUN!  I never realized how hard it was to photograph un-shy, full of energy puppies.  I feel like our best images came from when he was about to fall asleep and could barely move!

Atlanta Portrait Photographer | Kennesaw State University | Patrick’s Graduation Photos

As an Atlanta portrait photographer, it’s always weird to photograph someone you know. I pride myself as being a very honest individual.  However, with those I’m closest to, I’m almost TOO honest.  Photographing Patrick was such a different experience than photographing my regular clients.  Although I always seek professionalism in the way I pose my subjects, my instructions with friends are usually much more casual.  “Suck in your gut and sit up straight!  Your face looks stupid when you do that.  Don’t ever do that face again.  Omg that angle is horrible – your double chins are showing!”

Despite my blatant remarks, at the end of the day I am still loved (usually).  My friends are awesome people for putting up with my candidness.  🙂

Patrick will be graduating from Kennesaw State University in the Winter of 2012 with his degree in Finance.  The images below were shot around the school campus.

Vines Botanical Gardens | Amber’s Headshots

Vines Botanical Gardens | Amber’s Headshots

Amber is an aspiring actress!  She needed head shots to jump start her career.  Can’t wait to see the jobs she’ll land soon!

Trying to branch out from regular Atlanta portrait photography, Amber and I took a visit to Vines Botanical Gardens in Loganville, GA.  It’s a GORGEOUS well kept secret near my hometown.  Vines Botanical Gardens is a beautiful southern style mansion with breathtaking landscapes.  Ladies, they do weddings too!

Here are a couple highlights from the day –

Lawrenceville Square Head Shots

Lawrenceville Square Head Shots

As an Atlanta portrait photographer, it’s sometimes hard to find places to shoot when returning to your hometown.  Haley had mentioned that many of her theatre students had their head shots done around the Lawrenceville Square.  It ended up being a gorgeous location with tons of places to shoot!  Here are a couple highlights from the day.  🙂

Downtown Lawrenceville, like other downtown square locations had all kind of places to explore that photographed beautifully. If you’re local to the area, it’s a place we’d recommend checking out!
