April Spring Mini Sessions | Social Circle, Ga.

Just before our family went on spring break, I was able to meet with several families here in our sweet little town of Social Circle for more spring mini sessions! These have been some of my faves! I have many more family’s sessions to share, as these have been quite popular. I think the purity of them has been so captivating for me! Nothing too fussy, simple design, lots of nature with the focus being on the emotions of the family and each member.

This is what I love and I hope my clients do too!!

Just a little about my clients. . .

Kori and her babes saw me about a year and a half ago for updated fall photographs on our farm in Social Circle. Kori has a radiant smile that, as you can see in her babies too, is like sunshine!

Years ago (maybe four years ago?) I photographed Susan and Chris’ oldest daughter, Lily, with a sweet bunny boy named Amp. When Susan saw on social media I was offering spring sessions with a bunny that looks almost identical to Amp, she wanted me to photograph their youngest daughter, Hayley as well. Oh, this makes my heart so happy!

Such precious babies and families!! Thank y’all so much for joining me again this year!!

Scott Family Spring Session | Social Circle, Ga.

We were placed here. We know that for sure!

Meet our neighbor’s, the Scott Family! I met Jennifer, the mom, at church (years before our move) and our daughters, at that time, went to the same school. Life got busy for us both, she started homeschooling her babies and we began loosing touch.

One day, I took the kids to the toddler park here in town. There is a little library box just on the other side of the fence and I went to grab a book to read while the kids played. I grabbed a Bible study called Community: Your Path to Progress, written by Andy Stanley and the North Point Ministries. I sat down at a picnic table, opened the book and read more than halfway through it in about 20 minutes!! I was hooked! It was EXACTLY what I had prayed for and God put it right in front of me! All the answers I needed in that moment were right in front of me.

Then God put it on my heart to start this Bible study at our home and told me to invite Jennifer to come. When I contacted her and asked her if she would like to join me and I explained the study we would be doing, she stopped me and said, “Holly, I put that study in that little library box right outside the playground!”

What?!? * *TEARS* * Y’all, God did that! How amazing is that!?! And then, God made us neighbors too! Over a year ago when we placed an offer on the “broken house” we had no idea they lived across the street! I seriously can’t handle how good God is to us!! The Scott family has been so welcoming and kind to us during our transition here and we are so thankful for them!!

God is so good!

Arlee Rose's Nine Month Session | Social Circle, Ga.

What a doll baby!!! Isn’t she so precious? I met the Green family at our cute little park here in downtown Social Circle for their updated family session and to celebrate Miss Arlee Rose’s nine month’s of life here on earth.

Arlee was being stingy with her smiles, so her daddy stood behind me and played a fun game of peek-a-boo with her. That got her! Oh and aren’t her blue eyes just stunning?! Arlee is so perfect! I loved the time I got to spend with Ashley, Aaron and Miss Arlee Rose! It’s always a please photographing this family!

HattieMae's One Year Milk Bath Session | Social Circle, Ga.

Hello Sunshine!! This is my AH-dorable GREAT niece, HattieMae! Yesterday, I got to photograph her one year session, on her actual birthday! She totally hammed-it-UP, too!! Those curls! Those rolls! That precious smile!!

She started off posing and as we started reacting with all of our oh’s and ahh’s, she then decided to take a phone call (with her “hand Phone”)! Right in the middle of her shoot! So sassy-adorable! HattieMae will keep a stern look on her face but when she smiles, it brightens up life! It’s seriously the best!

HattieMae, I’m so thankful that we got to celebrate your life yesterday! We sure do love you bunches and we’re so thankful for all the joy you bring us and our family.
Happy birthday doll baby!!

Downtown Monroe | Stubbs Family Session

I love how colorful the Stubbs’ family session is! Oh, and their sweet son Foster!! Goodness, he is so adorable! I met Cody, the dad, at church one day. Our pastor had asked me to photograph baptism day and Cody was there to do the videography. He and I mapped out a plan so we wouldn’t get in each others shots. While we were chatting and getting to know one another, Cody mentioned that he wanted to start doing wedding videography. It was so awesome, because I had a wedding coming up and he was able to book my bride. We worked together at Starrsville Plantation and it went so great! We’ve worked together on other church projects since then.

He always talks about his sweet family, his son Foster and his wife Kaitlyn. I finally got to meet them both for their family session. Monroe has become their new hometown. They moved here a few months ago and it was so fitting to photograph their session here. It was an overcast day, but their smiles and the fun colors of Downtown brightened everything up!!

Also, another fun fact, Kaitlyn’s dad is Jeffery Foster. He was RyAnne’s soccer coach last year and is also running for Supreme Court Judge! During their session, Kaitlyn mentioned that her dad was the judge during the very last case at the old court house in Downtown Monroe. So cool! God sure has intertwined our paths!!

Thank you for letting me photograph your beautiful family, Cody and Kaitlyn!
