This session was one I was working on from the end of last year and thought I would share.  I just love looking at this face!  By the beautiful colors you can tell it was a great day in Atlanta for pictures.  We were capturing little Charlie-Bear’s first birthday.  I was the lucky photographer that got to document the first time he ever had sugar when he had a red velvet cupcake (what a good Southern boy!).  His faces were hilarious and very appropriate that he wasn’t so sure about it because his parents are Dentists.  I bet they will be thrilled if he turns his nose to sweets!

He has the most pleasant face and is such a sweet boy. I just love looking at him.

Happy Birthday, Charlie-Bear!

I was excited to be the feature photographer for Our Town Magazine this month.  They have a cover story on one of my favorite clients, little Charlie-Bear.  His parents, Doctors Alex & Leslie Patrick, have a great Dental Practice in the Smyrna Vinings area.  It is at the corner of Cooper Lake and the East/West Connector.  I’ve gotten to know this family over the past year and think the world of them.  They are so professional and still very personable that I want to recommend them to all my friends.  You can tell them I sent you!

I decided I would put Client’s Christmas Gifts right on my own Christmas Tree until their orders were picked up.  No reason I can’t enjoy sweet little faces looking at me every day! I would love to have a Christmas Tree full of Organic Bloom frames.  I always have an 11 foot tree so that may take some planning!  I may have to look into an ornament stand and add to it throughout the year.  These little frames will be hard to part with for me!

This is a new item at Trader Joes that I came across recently.  I thought Cocoa Almond Spread might be rich with a dark chocolate taste.  I was surprised when it tasted just like chocolate icing – very sweet.  I put it on a rice cake and gave some to my little girl and she thought she was getting a really special treat (she was).  It is better than a cookie, right?

Merry Christmas!

I hope you find me at the Jonquil Festival this weekend in Smyrna.  I’ll be at a booth with Easy Edges displaying frames, albums and other fun stuff.  Above are some pictures of Easy Edges handmade clothing.  You know the Auburn dresses have to be my favorite thing.  I think the tie t-shirts for little boys are pretty cute too.

The Turkey and Pumpkin shirts are adorable (AND the Pants go with my Auburn shirt)!

Children grow up so fast.  I think it is fun to splurge on these cute custom made clothes while you can still get away with it.

Hope to see you this weekend.  It is supposed to be beautiful Fall weather and a great time to walk around downtown Smyrna and see your friends.  You might as well get a big jump on your Christmas shopping too. 🙂

October Our Town Magazine for Smyrna, Vinings and Vinings Estates

Meet the Eaton Family of Smyrna, Georgia.  You can read all about them in the latest issue of Our Town.  These images were shot early in the morning at Cobb Park near Campbell High School where the Spooktacular Chase will start and stop this Saturday.

The Spooktacular Chase is Vision Rehabilitation Service of Georgia’s signature fundraising 5K run (and 1K walk).  If you haven’t signed up visit www.spooktacularchase.com for more information.  I hope you get to meet VSR’s mascot, SeeMore.  He was a real hoot (ha) and my first session with a mascot!

Even if you aren’t a runner, go out and support the race and when you are done you can head over to the Jonquil Festival and look for me!

If you did not get a copy of Our Town this month, stop by Rev Coffee in Smyrna.  They usually have a big stack of extras.

Sweet Julianna in her Auburn Tutu.  She was quite the good sport on this day.  She stopped scowling when the  scary Marietta Daily Journal photographer that crashed our session went away and was so happy when Mommy started singing.  At least she actually made the paper although we can’t figure out which day!

We are gearing up at my house to meet all of our Auburn friends at the Cobb Galleria tonight for the Annual Atlanta Auburn Club Tiger Trek.  I’m going to let Coach Chizik sign something..maybe my kids foreheads and I hope to get a picture of me and the BCS trophy.  I’m sure my kids won’t stand still for that.

If any of my Auburn friends don’t have a ticket, I think there are some still available at the door.  See you at Tiger Walk!

Auburn Creed:
I believe that this is a practical world and that I can count only on what I earn. Therefore, I believe in work, hard work.
I believe in education, which gives me the knowledge to work wisely and trains my mind and my hands to work skillfully.
I believe in honesty and truthfulness, without which I cannot win the respect and confidence of my fellow men.
I believe in a sound mind, in a sound body and a spirit that is not afraid, and in clean sports that develop these qualities.
I believe in obedience to law because it protects the rights of all.
I believe in the human touch, which cultivates sympathy with my fellow men and mutual helpfulness and brings happiness for all.
I believe in my Country, because it is a land of freedom and because it is my own home, and that I can best serve that country by “doing justly, loving mercy, and walking humbly with my God.”
And because Auburn men and women believe in these things, I believe in Auburn and love it.
-George Petrie (1945)
