It’s like nature flipped a switch this past weekend! Just a few pictures from a gloomy morning walk before events on this October Saturday. Cloudy, sky-less days are actually very good for fall photography I’ve found.
Since it’s the Autumn season down here in Georgia I thought I’d change up the look on my small cameras, just by giving them a new fancy leather camera strap! I went on an ordering spree last week and here are some of the affordable options from Amazon. The most expensive strap was $25 and […]

Thanks to Olivia, Nadia and Mena for the great collaborative senior photo shoot! It was really fun exploring and shooting in a totally new (to me) area.

Took a drive to Highlands North Carolina to take some portraits. It’s still green and uninspiring down here in Georgia, but as soon as I made the turn up into NC the leaves were almost peak! You can never predict the leaf season around Atlanta, but this year it’s a lot earlier. Anyways, here are […]
