the Paschal family {athens, ga family photographer}

I work with Dr. Paschal at St. Mary's, so I was honored when his wife Becky asked me to do some pictures for their sweet little family! I took some pictures of Elizabeth when she was 5 months old and Dr. Paschal has kept me updated with pictures since (he is such a proud daddy), but man she has gotten so big! It's so much fun to watch their little personality grow! And she is full of that... little miss personality! She loves blowing kisses and she had me cracking up at all of her expressions! Enjoy your sneak peek!

Yesterday I spent the afternoon at Botanical Gardens with lots of little darlings. We had fun with bubbles, easter eggs, bunny ears, and lots of buttercup flowers! Here are a few of my favorites. Thanks to everyone who came out!!

Krystal and Brian | Colbert, GA couples photograher

I cannot say enough good things about this couple. I met them for the first time yesterday and I will be shooting their wedding in Blue Ridge, GA next month. In the couple of hours that we spent together I just fell in love with them! Not only are they just both adorable, as you will see in this sneak peek, but they are completely smitten with each other. Brain could not keep his hands off of her! There is something very quiet and pure about their love for each other. Gosh! Even I got butterflies just taking their pictures! I am very excited about spending more time with them on their wedding day! It was VERY hard for me to choose favorites because I love all of them, but here are a few worth sharing...

Olivia and Presley {athens, ga children photographer}

Little miss Olivia and Presley are super adorable! Olivia was just not all about having her picture taken. We tried a tea set, bubbles, and even chocolate (which is suppose to be her favorite)... but she just wasn't having it! I was able to snap a few cute shots of her though. I LOVE her big brown eyes! So, here they are... Olivia and her baby sister, Presley.

the Marucci kids {athens, ga family photographer}

Way back in November 2010 (it seems so LONG ago!), I took pictures of Blake, Ricky, Jamie, and Noah. This was a special session because they are my cousins. And it's always fun to spend time with family doing what you love! Blake was leaving for the service, and their aunt wanted to get some pictures for their mom as a Christmas gift! We had a great time together and I know that their mom will treasure these forever. What beautiful children she has! Here are a few of my favorites...

sweet baby Elijah {athens, ga newborn photographer}

2nd day of newborn sessions in my home and I am LOVING it!! I have know Ashley and Ryan for a LONG time and they just had their second baby boy, Elijah. He is just precious and SO tiny. After a quick feeding, he was ready to go. I was able to pretty much keep him sleeping the whole time, which is new for me. But, it definitely gets easier with every newborn session that I do! Enjoy your sneak peek!

nicole and ryan {athens, ga engagement photographer}

I am shooting Nicole and Ryan's wedding in April and I am very excited about spending more time with them! They are so in love and giggly and their sweet affection for each other makes me smile. We met at Athens Botanical Gardens for an engagement shoot before their upcoming wedding. Here is a little sneak peek for you!
