I've known Myka for quite some time, but don't see her often. One day I was in my bank and noticed her sitting in a chair waiting for her appointment with one of the bankers. I said hello and found out that she was pregnant! She asked me for recommendations on care providers, and I told her where I went (Intown Midwifery delivering at Atlanta Medical Center).
Months went by, and one day an email from her popped into my inbox. She let me know that she had tried taking some of her own maternity photos, but decided that an expert would be the better way to go. We talked about her vision for the session and what she was planning to wear (she had an amazing caftan from Jen's Pirate Booty that she'd picked up from a boutique in L.A.) and settled on the field as the best location for the overall feel and look she envisioned.
I met Myka & Navarro at the field on a very hot evening in August, and got right to work. I LOVE this session because of the laughter and the authentic emotion captured between the two of them. You can't fake this kind of connection, and it's clear how much fun these two have together. The backlight from the sunset was also pretty amazing too. Myka and Navarro went on to have the most beautiful baby boy, three weeks before I had my son. I've since then had the pleasure of photographing him for his 6 month session and a Santa session, and he just keeps getting cuter!
If you're pregnant and looking for a newborn or maternity photographer, I would love to work with you to create images that you will love for a lifetime. Be sure to view this short 1.5 minute film to hear about my philosophy and see how I work in the studio so you can determine if I'm the right fit for you. I can't wait to meet you!
