The Ottinger Family | Spring Maternity Session in Marietta, Georgia | Atlanta Fine Art Portrait & Lifestyle Photographer
Parenthood
I’m about 100% positive this is one of my favorite photos I’ve ever taken! Haha! This little boy had so much personality! Little E is going to be such a wonderful big brother to his little sister.
I had such a lovely time photographing this sweet family of soon-to-be four! Little baby S is going to be so loved!
Bridgette did such a great job selecting her family’s outfits for this spring maternity/family session! Look at those gorgeous pastel colors!
A little secret- right behind weddings, I believe that maternity sessions are my favorite thing to photograph! There is no comparison to the excitement, adoration, and love shared between two expecting parents.

Adriana | Summer Senior Session at Vines Mansion Park in Loganville, Georgia | Atlanta Fine Art Portrait Photographer
Graduates
Adrianna’s summer senior session (say that ten times fast!) was an absolute dream! We shot her senior session early in the morning at Vine Mansion Park in Loganville, Georgia- and boy, was it gorgeous! The warm morning light that you can see in these photos had me swooning.
A few things I adored about Adrianna’s senior session…
Her style and two outfits were very feminine and romantic- which I LOVE. Her first outfit was an adorable pink sundress with delicate straps and white, cork heels. (I hope I’m explaining these correctly- I’m not a fashion blogger!) Her second outfit was the cutest floral romper and sandals. If you know me, you know anything floral print has my whole heart. Adrianna also brought along her graduation cap and gown and used it in a few photos to commemorate this season of her life- high school graduation! I loved that she chose to incorporate it.

Sydney & Jayro | Dreamy, Sunset Anniversary Session in Downtown Chattanooga & Point Park in Chattanooga, Tennessee | Atlanta Fine Art Portrait Photographer
Lovebirds
It was so nice to visit Chattanooga, Tennessee and take Sydney and Jayro’s belated one year anniversary photos in a city that is so special and sentimental to them- they frequented Chattanooga while they were dating and Jayro proposed to Sydney there as well. Sydney and I have actually been close friends for over ten years! So there was a lot of laughter shared and a fun time was had by all- despite the chilly, goose-bump raising temperatures in the evening!
Sydney and Jayro’s anniversary session featured two areas of Chattanooga… One of the first spots we used I would call a “little hidden gem” in the downtown area of Chattanooga- it’s one of those spots you would never really notice and would probably walk past without the slightest glance or hesitation- an ordinary spot that worked perfectly for the look and feel I was going for. It was the underbelly of a concrete bridge! Ha! But really, I adored the architectural beauty of this spot- I love symmetry and neutral colors in natural light, so I was elated that we had the opportunity to shoot there. The second spot was a cliff somewhere in Point Park in Chattanooga- I don’t even know if I could find the cliff again, as we were quite literally chasing light and racing against time to find the perfect spot before sunset. It. Was. Breathtaking. The view of Chattanooga was gorgeous, Sydney and Jayro were gorgeous, that warm sunset light and the pastel tones the sunset gifted us with were just drop dead gorgeous. It was all gorgeous. Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous.
If I could share advice based on Sydney and Jayro’s session it would be… 1. Don’t be afraid to suggest sentimental or special-to-you areas to your photographer for your session’s location! You CAN collaborate with your photographer! And sentimental value is everything. 2. Please don’t be terrified when your photographer suggests a strange spot that looks nothing special to you as a backdrop for your photos! We see things a little differently. Your photos that are taken underneath a concrete bridge might just look like neutral-colored, architectural dreaminess when it’s all said and done! (And hopefully, you’ve already done your research and have combed through their portfolio and KNOW their style, that their style is consistent, and that they produce beautiful work that you love and are very comfortable with. 9/10 we won’t spontaneously create photos that are polar opposite to our style on an important or paid shoot- at least, I would NOT.) 3. Location(s) and outfit changes contribute to the variety and uniqueness of your photos. Plan well, my friends! And again, don’t hesitate to collaborate with your photographer to create something unique to you (and your loved ones) with sentimental value!

Sarah | Senior Session at Acworth Beach at Cauble Park in Acworth, Georgia | Atlanta Fine Art Portrait Photographer
Graduates
Sarah’s December senior session at Acworth Beach at Cauble Park in Acworth, Georgia was perfect! Why? Gorgeous light, strangely warm weather for winter in Georgia, and hardly any foot traffic in the area- we nearly had the entire park to ourselves! Even so, we gravitated towards the water- I absolutely adore the silvery, blue tones shooting by bodies of water creates.
A few of my favorite things about this session… (1) I was in awe of Sarah’s piercing, ice blue eyes! They are absolutely beautiful- you don’t see eyes like those every day. (2) Her adventurous spirit was obvious looking at her bright red hair. I was quick to tell her that I loved it and that I wished I was even a little adventurous with my hair- I’m not, not at all! I have a cycle with my hair… I grow it out, lighten it up just a bit, darken it back up to my natural color, and then chop it all off. And then I start the process all over again. Haha!
