Back in the fall I had this idea of bringing the SMT concept to the teen realm in a more petite version.  The shoots would stay in town (SMT Group shoots are destination sessions outside the Valdosta area) and we would focus on bringing up the confidence level of the girls on the team.  We […]

While we just thought that the class of 2020 was a whirlwind ending, the whole year for c/o 2021 has had so many ups and downs!  I am SO thankful that we have had as successful of an SMT as we have — with only one add on session cancelled due to *youknowwhat* restrictions.  I’ve […]

I saw a photo from Piedmont Park last year at some point, and I just KNEW we had to make a trip!  After careful planning and scheming (including a phone call to an Atlanta photographer friend!), we made our way to Piedmont Park in Atlanta, Georgia for our fall SMT Group Session.  Above the “gnat-line”, […]

Katherine was the first of my Crew to be in front of the camera this season!  Her December session out at my lake location actually had a lot of fall vibes  (thanks to our South Georgia weather + late leaf changing!).  I loved her style and how she planned for her hair to be done […]
