Ameriprise Financial {Atlanta Professional Headshots}

When it comes to money, people can get a little......funny. (Yes, I know that rhymed, but I'm leaving it alone!) Personal finance can be a stressful and complicated subject, and finding the right kind of help can make all the difference. This is one of those industries, like photography, where relationship is key. So you when you find people who are not only knowledgable but also just good people, you're truly fortunate.

After meeting the staff at Ameriprise's Alpharetta office, I definitely feel they're the type you'd want working with you on your finances. Everyone was extremely busy but very super nice and extremely appreciative of having their photoshoot just down the hall in a conference room. In and out in only a few minutes: definitely better than scheduling a time at a studio. And the jokes! It was a fun crowd, for sure.

Thanks SO much to Jessica and Paola for organizing this and helping everything run so smoothly.

A study in Grey (Quincy the dog) {Atlanta Dog Photographer}

It just so happened that I was staying at my friend Cara's recently, for various logistical reasons, and had several photoshoots scheduled at the same time.  Consequently I had my new-ish grey background with me, and Cara's Quincy was good enough to model for me one afternoon.  Wasn't that kind of him?  (Fine, the administering of treats was used as a motivational tool.....whatever)  Here's Q!

It's Green! It's Spring! {Nina Parker Photography - Atlanta Wedding Photographer}

Other than the pollen (is my car supposed to be that color?) and the thunderstorms (watch out for falling trees!), I love springtime.  I really, really do.  The days are longer, there's more daylight to be outside, and everything is blooming and turning green.  And when I say everything is turning green, I mean everything.

Case in point, check out these mini albums that just came in.  LOVE!  There's nothing I don't like about these.  At 4 inches square they're a great size to carry in a bag.  The apple green leather I picked is gorgeous and supple, and the contrast with the beautiful fabric pouches is divine.  The covers are substantial but not too thick, and the pages are high quality photo paper with a nice weight.  To put together these samples I used images from Katie and Justin's wedding a few months ago.  Click here if you want to see photos of their day.

Without question these are a welcome new addition to product offerings.  I'm so pleased with these little books that I'll probably order another sample newborn clients. A little book like this would also make a great Mother's Day gift, allowing her to show off her latest family photos.

Call me at 770-330-5414 to schedule a spring or Easter session and see other cover options for these new mini books!

Groth and Makarenko {Atlanta Professional Headshots}

Since I know a few lawyers, I'm well aware that they're humans, just like the rest of us.  (Actually, my cousin the lawyer and his father have a repertoire of more bad lawyer jokes than anyone I know.)  So I wasn't at all nervous about meeting the team at Groth and Makarenko to create some new images for their website.  They were truly a pleasure to work with, very pleasant and professional.  Of course, I did ask for a "tough lawyer" face at one point, and believe me, it was intimidating.  I would NOT want to face that in cross examination.  But if I ever need a good lawyer to have my back, I'll know who to call.  Thanks for making it a great shoot, guys.

Boxer Babies {Atlanta Pet Photographer}

Last week I travelled pretty far north of the city to meet a litter of Boxer puppies, and it was definitely worth the drive.  These sweet fur babies will be ready to go home with new owners next week, but for now they're still having fun playing with one another and just KILLING us with cuteness.
