Lifetime Bikes Loganville ~ {Loganville, Georgia Promotional / Family Photographer}

My brother opened a bicycle shop in July 2008.  It's been a dream of his and he made it come to life and I couldn't be more proud of what he has done with the shop and for himself.  Since I started photography last year, we have been trying to get together to do family pictures.  Yesterday we were able to combine our two passions by taking pictures of him and the shop and some quick family pics.  I am so pleased with how the shop pictures turned out!  I recently purchased some color filters for my light and also a second light set.  I just love using the lights and what it does for the photographs!

Jamye's Birthday ~ {Atlanta, Georgia Event Photographer}

If you've ever heard me mention my friend Ayaila, you know she is a super fabulous event planner.  Everything she touches turns out fabulous and I'm not just saying that because she is a friend!  
This occasion was another fabulous Ayaila creation.   Ayaila wanted to plan something wonderful and memorable for her friend Jamye's 31st Birthday.  Lucky for me, she wanted a "Diva" style photo shoot for a small group of girls.   The photo shoot was part my vision and part Ayaila's and I'm so happy with how everything turned out.  It's so easy though when you have really fun, beautiful people to work with!!  
:) 
Here are a few of my favorites and some of the super creative touches from Ayaila.  

Hailey ~ {Marietta, Georgia Children Photographer}

Hailey celebrated her birthday last week and her parents wanted to have some pictures to remember the occasion.  Unfortunately, I was out of town for her birthday party, so we met up early last week for some pre-birthday pictures.   

I can't say she was loving having her own personal paparazzi especially with all the fun stuff to explore at the park.  

I bet you next year will be a different story though.   

After all, what little girl doesn't love having her picture taken?!?  :)

Angela & Ernest ~ {Chamblee, Georgia Couples Photographer}

I can't even tell you how much I loved photographing Angela & Ernest last weekend!  First off, I haven't seen Angela in several years, so it was great seeing her again and catching up.  It was so nice to finally meet Ernest, after hearing so much about him.  
I have been wanting to do something different for awhile, not so formal, a bit funky and when Angela agreed to the location, I was so excited!!  
This was also the first time I used my light at sunset, and I love, love, love the pictures!   
Since I can't possibly pick a few that I like, here are a lot that I like!  :)
