Augusta, Ga Family Photographer || Moose Family

I had a blast laughing with this adorable family this evening.  Lauren was all out two, and cracking me up!  She gave her parents and me a good workout, but I still managed to snag some awesome pics!

I loved meeting you guys tonight!  Thanks so much for braving the heat, and for choosing JVP!!

I also want to give Jessica a shout out for picking out some rocking colors for their outfits!  LOVED the bright colors in these urban settings!



It’s getting hot out there folks,

Augusta, Ga Baby Photographer || Ellie, 8 months

Ellie girl is 8 months already.  We met up in Hammond’s Ferry in North Augusta to capture her gorgeous little self.
She was pretty serious last night, but we still got some beautiful images.  She’s got her serious model look down ;)

Augusta, Ga Child and Family Photographer || Mason W., 1 year old

I love this sweet family.  I’ve been working with them for about 3 years now, and we always have so much fun at our sessions. We got together yesterday evening for  Mason’s 1st birthday session!


Happy Birthday buddy!

Augusta, Ga Family Photographer || Wildflower MINIs

This wildflower field is nestled on some private property not too far from my house.  It is full of an amazing variety of flowers, tall grass, and fresh country air.  I had an amazing time shooting there, and am so thankful that The Wall’s gave me permission to do so.  I already can’t wait til next year when it’s in full bloom again!

My first sweet family this morning drove in from Macon. Miss Madeline turned two recently, and soon she’ll be a big sister.  Be on the look out for more of this beautiful family in the future!


Miss Isabella, visiting from Atlanta,  was up next.  She wasn’t too sure about things this morning. ;)


Miss Brinley was one happy little thing! She is 8 months, teeny tiny, and SO cute!


And last up this morning, Miss Kendall and Keaton.  You may have seen them just a few times on the blog before.  ;)   Kendall and I are buddies, haha.


Happy Sneak Peek :)
Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Augusta, Ga Family Photographer || Jude, 9 months

I’ve gotten to work the Hamilton family over the past year.  Next time we meet Jude will be one, and we’ll do his cake smash! I can’t believe it’s already here!
Here are some shots from our session today.
Happy 9 months, Jude!


See you guys soon!

Asher Knox, 14 days new

This sweet mama drove all the way from Claxton, Ga to get to JVP.  Sure made me feel special ;)
Asher is one handsome little fellow, and he did very well at his session.  I loved all the props Susannah brought for her little man.

Thanks for choosing JVP!  It was so nice to meet you today!  I hope you enjoy your sneak peek!

We wanted to use this page because of the Mama and Baby deer picture on the left, but when I was editing, I loved the text on the page too:
“Then she nudged her sleeping baby gently with her nose. ‘Wake up,’ she whispered, ‘Wake up.’”

Spring MINIs take 2 || Augusta, Ga Child and Family Photographer

Spring is a fanciful thing
Full of life, love
imagination, and dreams.

Silly giggles, dirty feet
Skinned knees and laughter
Spring is
Happily Ever After.

Augusta, Ga Child Photographer || Emma, 3 years old

I knew this session was going to go well, because when I squatted down to say “Hi” to Emma, before I could even get it out she gave me a big hug and asked me my name.  This sweet one is full of personality, and we became friends super fast.   Emma took direction perfectly, with her only opposition being bugs.  Fair enough, Emma, fair enough. hehe.


And if you are wondering where Miss Emma gets all that gorgeous from….


So nice to meet you both this evening!

Augusta, Ga Newborn Photographer || GraiCee, 7 days new

It’s official. I’m getting old.  I’ll be 30 soon AND my former students from when I taught high school are getting married and having babies.  Both Shawn and Britney were my students a few years back, and now they have the sweetest little family!

I had the honor of doing Big Sister BaiLee’s newborn and first year pictures.  Now she is 19 months and such a sweet big sister.


She was a little too wiggly this morning to get any pictures with GraiCee, her newborn sister, so we had to settle for a few cute ones of just her ;)

Here is Miss GraiCee.  She is 7 days old today and looks almost exactly like BaiLee when she was born. She is so teeny tiny!


So nice to meet you this morning, GraiCee!
Britney and Shawn, so good to see you!!

Augusta, Ga Baby, Child, and Family Photographer || Joshua, 7 months

So proud of this little guy for sitting up so well!  We were waiting on it for his next milestone session, and he rocked it out today!  I love this sweet family, and had fun this morning capturing Kelly and Billy with their sweet boys.

Thanks for choosing JVP!
