Mulligan Gender Reveal Session – Smyrna | Atlanta Maternity Photographer

When my friend Kristina asked me to be a part of the gender reveal for their first baby, I was ecstatic! I have known Kristina since freshman year of college (we were dorm hallmates) and I became friends with her sweet husband Mike at UGA as well. I can’t believe it’s been almost 10 years since those freshman year days, and I just love that we’re still close.

Kristina and Mike handed off the “secret” envelope with the ultrasound photo to our friend Carson. She filled up a giant painted box with balloons and we met up at our favorite little park in Smyrna for the big reveal. Boy or Girl? Kristina was right all along…. scroll down for the surprise!

Erin’s Maternity Session – East Atlanta Village | Atlanta Maternity Photographer

Erin and I worked together several years ago, and we’ve kept in touch since then. When I found out she was pregnant, I asked if she and her husband would be up for a portfolio-building maternity session. They graciously agreed, and we decided to shoot at their house as well as down the street in East Atlanta Village, where there is some really cool street art. The nursery is so cute — it’s outfitted with a sweet castle mural (painted by super talented Dad himself), and baby boy will certainly have plenty of fun dragons to play with as he grows older. Given the nursery theme, it was only fitting that we do some photos in front of this GIANT metal dragon sculpture in EAV. I had a blast working with these adorable parents-to-be, and I can’t wait to meet baby boy Dreiling when he arrives next month!
