Celebrating big changes!

Posted on December 6, 2014 by Meredith Ann

This month Defy owners are celebrating big changes! One of us is moving her family into their first home while the other is being showered with love for the upcoming arrival of her first born. Such gratitude for all the growth! And what’s more is our gratitude for loyal clients. This family came to us in the spring and we photographed this little boy in what was probably our most giggle filled session! Then this fall they came to us to photograph again our little super star and his little baby sister to be. What joy we had to be honored with such a precious session in Bushnell Park. We wish this family joy filled weeks as they come to a close as a family of three and welcome their new baby in the new year. We look forward to meeting her!

Deep brown handsome eyes!

Kids make the best models and ones like this little toddler remember us why we have the best job in the world! He was a great tour guide around Elizabeth Park and smiles came with great ease from all.

Beauty passed down from generation to generation

This summer I had the joy of meeting these three beautiful ladies. Three generations of love and this little princess enjoyed showing us how to give hugs and kisses and how to make a fishy face. These innocent blue eyes are ready to rule the world!

Surrounded by beauty!

Here is one proud dad! Surrounded by his beautiful young ladies and his lovely wife, there was lots of hugs, kisses and giggles this portrait session. These two little girls loved posing and smiling for me, and mom and dad were happy to smile too for the camera.

Photos with stories and smiles

More fun in Elizabeth Park this summer with this new family. This was little guys first photo shoot and he did very well! He was eager to tell us stories with lots of expression. His older sister was excited to show off her pink shoes and a pretty dress she had. They were both fabulous troopers and I see many a great photos in their futures!

Growing family joys

This family received a new baby boy this summer and during our session we got to capture the tender new relationships between everyone. Big brother was so gentle and even eager to hold his new friend. And had fun goofing around with daddy between takes. He earned his ice cream for sure! Grandma was even present for our session and so we were sure to capture her with her precious grandsons. Best wishes to this family as they continue on this new adventure as a growing family!

Milestones each step of the way.

The major milestones in life that we often think of first include births, graduations and marriages. However, there are little ones that happen in between that are milestones too. This little one joined us at her tenth month for a mini session in the park, and she had many skills to show us. From smiling, to sitting up, to crawling; I loved seeing these proud parents enjoy every moment with her. So today I remind you all, don’t forget to celebrate the little steps in life! Each one a milestone of its own.

From marriage to carriage in Elizabeth Park

We did mini sessions this spring in Elizabeth Park and for this couple it was the perfect spot! They were married in this very park and we had great fun recreating images from that special day. We just added one thing to the photos: a very cute little boy!

First new family in Connecticut!

Posted on July 13, 2014 by Meredith Ann

This past winter we had to make the difficult decision to divide the company between Georgia and Connecticut. While there were tears shed for this move, we knew in our hearts new clients would be found for half our company going to New England. Here’s to the best first session in Connecticut! This family was full of life and smiles, and the girls showed us all around this wonderful park! We are so grateful for the continuous work in Georgia and the new found work in Connecticut.

Double Trouble from Days Past

The Marietta Square is quickly becoming my favorite location for a photo shoot. The park in the center of the square is great, but there are so many awesome alley ways and hidden areas that are great backdrops. Sometimes it’s necessary to find those hidden spots because of all the events that happen in the park.

That’s exactly what happened this day. Little did we know that morning that there would be the Farmer’s Market, and a fundraiser event. Needless to say, the area was packed! We had to depend on the secret spots for our shoot. And what a great shoot it was! I was delighted to photograph a family I knew from an old job of mine. I hadn’t seen the twins in a year and it was nice to see what sweet young ladies they’re becoming. Their parents decided to join us at the end for a few family pictures. Who can resist a funny face picture, especially with three youngsters?!
