SHP and The Hendersons: sneak peek!

Thursday, May 21st, 2009

Weather in Atlanta has been less than cooperative when it comes to photo shoots over the past few weekends. Wendie Henderson, who works for The Home Depot corporate offices here in town, was referred to me through an old friend whom I’ve shot numerous times and we played weather roulette for a few weekends, to finally just book our session on a Tuesday night. The summer light is great until really late, so we just found a great spot in their front yard and snapped away until the kids were “done with it”. Such a cute family! I mean, how lucky can I get to have such cute Clients all the time.

Thanks Wendie and the Hendersons for making my job so easy!







Wilhelm Family – Session #2

Tuesday, May 19th, 2009

There’s not much more flattering than when I client hires you again. Susan and Frank Wilhelm live in a really cool part of town, which I had no idea was as close to this park near The Prado. It will forever become a favorite family shoot spot because there’s so much great light and shade to work with.

When we had our first shoot, their daughter was only 18 days old! So it was fun to see how big she’s gotten. Thanks to a really cool family for coming back to SHP!






The Ayres Family

Monday, May 18th, 2009

Sometimes, as a photographer, you just get lucky and get to shoot the cutest people possible. The Ayres family was one of those times. Their girls were just SO Freakin cute the entire day, and held it together for almost 2 hours of shooting. I had a great time shooting their beautiful family at their house and then around Marietta Square, which is a great place to find a few locations all within walking distance. Plus, there was some kind of dance recital festival going on that weekend, so they took in some of the show after the shooting was done…I’m sure Nick was super excited about that part! :)

Thanks to the Ayres family for making it such a great day!

The Blanco Family Rocked the ATL

Thursday, May 14th, 2009

Last weekend I had a really fun shoot with Cecile Blanco (of Stylemenow.com) and her super cool family. We were fighting against the weather, but in between rain drops we found some of my new favorite spots in Atlanta. I’ve shot at the Krog St. bridge before, but some new spots over around Atlantic Station will be a go-to area for some time.

Thanks to Cecile and the fam for making my job easy by just looking so darn cool!







On the road…Nashville

Wednesday, May 6th, 2009

The last couple of days have been crazy. Had a commercial shoot, a wedding, and a band/label shoot all within 4 days of each other and in completely different states. Monday I drove up to Nashville to shoot Dave and Jamar of Level6 Records. They’re a new label/promotions company and are headed out on a 30 day tour to promote their new business. We shot in the morning at a few locations we found downtown…I’m in LOVE with Nashville as a location because there are just so many awesome spots.

Then in the afternoon, I shot King Brock, a new artist who sorta reminds me of the Incubus singer. He’s got a great EP coming out, so be on the lookout for his stuff.

Here are a couple of my favs from the day:
The Fellas from Level6
