Adventure in the City...

I had an absolute blast with 8 mo Baby Vegas and his super cool mommy and daddy. They are new to Atl. We did their session at Piedmont and got some great shots (even though it was cold and WINDY), then we RUSHED back to their condo to catch some window light for naked baby shots:) So much more to tell, but I have to get back to work.

To reiterate my last post, I am BOOKED for holiday shoots! I really hate turning people away, but it is not even possible to open my schedule anymore! Not if I need showers and food! Not to mention my family:) No worries Maternity, Baby and Bday sessions- we can work something out for you. I just may not be able to deliver bf xmas.

Here are the pics----

How Much Fun Did...

Jack have at Grant Park??? It was a gorgeous day. We started around 11:45, which is not an ideal time to shoot. BUT, it worked beautifully! Jack and his adorable mommy made great models- here are a few of 6 mo old Jackson-
These are just a few random pics- hope you like!

Another Adorable 3 Mo Old...

I am loving all these 3 mo old boys! They are just so sweet. This will be a quick post, but Mom and Dad- I had a wonderful time hanging out with you and sitting and watching your darling sleep! This baby is LOVED! What a lucky little boy-

Same Place, Same Time- Next Year...

Be here-Look at this color at Grant Park! What a cute family they were. Here are a few more bf I get back to work.

It has actually taken me 3 days to get this whole post uploaded. Blogger, I am mad at you and will be looking elsewhere when I get a chance.

Ok- so, some PictureLily NEWS:
I am BOOKED for Holiday and Family Sessions! I cannot believe it. Thank you all so much for the wonderful word of mouth that has brought me some of the greatest clients ever! I am saving space to work in Maternity, Baby and Birthday sessions. I am doing this bc I am up to my eyeballs in editing and shipping times are about to increase. I do not want anyone to stress about rushing in time for the holidays.

With that said, I know I am running about 3 days behind on galleries, but please do your best to get your orders in as soon as possible. As far as payment goes, I ask for at least half at time of ordering. I have added a PAYPAL acct for your convienence to accept credit cards. I am sure we will have a smooth holiday rush!

Another note- our home line is NOT working! Please email me if you need me. I am on the computer 85% of the day...

Had to Share...

these images from this morning. There was fog and gorgeous sunlight shining. So peaceful- ahh... no kids... ahh.... This is the kind of shot I love to do a canvas of!! Had a wonderful time with all the family this morning. You are a very fun bunch- I enjoyed it!

Oh, Lola...

I am so sorry I forgot to post some of your new pics! Here are a few sweet ones. I love the holding hands shot bc it shows how little you are. It also reminds me how much your little feet like to run! And the moment with mommy.... Enjoy!

Back to the Field...

With a great family! I got some great fam shots and some adorable captures of their fun 3 yr old. Had so much fun, you guys! Hope you like them-

Little Jack...

Little Jack is a friend of our family. He was born on October 17th, a few months early, weighing in at 1lb 4oz and 11 in long. The family is in need of prayers and well wishes. This little guy is just amazing to me. He is so tiny. Check out their journal and if you feel inclined to do so, leave them a message. Here is the peanut-

That is Daddy's ring on his foot and wrist to show how small he is. Jack, boy, I cannot wait for your first photo shoot- I will come running:)

Jack's Journal

Sweet, Fun 3 Year Old...

Had such a good time with this doll and her fun parents! We had a fun romp in the yard, laid in the grass (even got mommy and daddy down!) and ran around a bit. Her eyes are completely untouched! WOW! Where are all these great eyes coming from?? Thanks guys!! Hope you like your little peek-

Cute x 3...

3 precious girls! With these sweet little faces. I had so much fun with you guys! I just grabbed 4 random faves to show. And, don't worry mom- I have found group shots with all open eyes- yes! And I think the outfits were perfect. Off to beddy-bye-

Holiday Schedule and Cards...

Hi all! I am very blessed to have so many wonderful clients this year. It is amazing how booked I am. Thank to all that have spread the word. Word of mouth has been the greatest compliment to me. Well, my weekends are about booked up for holiday and family sessions. I have availability during the week in the mornings and late afternoon. Please contact me ASAP to book your session. I am leaving space for Maternity, Newborn and Baby sessions.

I have just posted a gallery full of Holiday Card Examples. I do every card custom for your family. The template can either be templates for your card, or a stepping stone. If you have booked a regular session (without card design included) the card design fee is $25. From there, the cards may be ordered in packs of 25 in a flat or folded card. A 4x8 is printed just like a photograph. The 4.5x5, 5x7 and 5x5 cards are press printed and are available in a regular finish or a fine art linen! Gorgeous!

Off to a shoot- stay tuned- 3 GIRLS!!!

3 is the Magic #...

I met with Taylor, Collin and Conner this morning for a fun session on a beautiful day. Their pics turned out so cute- I had to do storyboards! I just love them. These would be printed as 10x20's- a neat, long rectangle. Check out these cuties...

PS- tonight I have a session with a single child, but go back to 3 tomorrow night!!

Little Angels....

These little children just look so angelic to me! Their eyes are just stunning. The 2 sisters have proudly welcomed their baby bro, Hayes, into the world with lots of love. I had such a good time with them and their super-cool parents! They were willing to do anything- so.... we moved a huge leather recliner onto the little covered stoop at their front door (had to turn it sideways!) Boy, am I a pain! Wasn't it worth it???? Take a look-

These little pictures just do not do them justice! Another note, my adorable friend, Jessi, has given birth to Andrew!! So, stay tuned for some newborn pics!!

GREAT Light + Adorable Kids = ...

...One great session! I have to make this quick, so I will let the pics speak for themselves. Had so much fun tromping around the golf course with these friends of ours. Hope you love them, Mom! Oh, and PS- we had a super- duper helper come with us- thanks so much, R!!!!

Beautiful Family...

Another family of 3. Is somebody trying to tell me something? Ok, that somebody better be quiet bc the Pillow Family is happy at 4 total!! I had a good time photographing these cuties. I am posting a few random faves of the kids. Getting back to work- those who are waiting for galleries and orders- they are coming along good!Could not resist this serious/sweet face!

Boys. Boys. Boys...

To the tune of Girls, Girls, Girls. (reminds me of a strip club- but this is a PG Blog!)

Anyways, yes. I have photographed many boys this weekend (and loved it) I started off on Sat morning with another old college friend that I have not seen since. She has 3 young boys- how does she do it? I do not know, but they have a terrific family! Including her (4) nephews she brought along for their photo shoot: 3 + 4 = 7 Crazy, sweet, adorable boys. Luckily, the oldest were twins in highschool. These cousins sure got a sweat out of us grown ups- whew!

Check out a few:

My FAVE!!! I recommend this for any group like this- check out Jackson crying and Baby Cooper just staring at them- yes, Cooper, they are crazy!

Here We Go...

PictureLily is busy, busy! I spent the morning at our elementary school fall festival and the afternoon with a great family. Here is Alyssa (almost 5) with her parents. We had a great session, where I showed my quirky side and I think Alyssa actually thought I was weird! Oh man! Oh, well! She opened up quickly and gave us some of her true self. I love the shots we got today- almost as much as I love her bright blue eyes (and dimples:)). They would shine through in any light! Had a great time- hope you like them.

I love this sweet one with dad-

Don't they look like models??
