My Favorite Nephew (and his mama)

Since my twin sister, Ryan, got a puppy about a year ago, she's been asking me to do portraits of the two of them. We finally found some time and a great location last weekend and these are some of my favorites. Here are Ryan and Beckett!

Cowboy Boots & Downhome Roots

Featured Shoot from October



Bride Haley woke up in the middle of the night to fiancĂ© Ben telling her to look out the window. She did, and spelled out in tea-lights were the words “Will u marry me?” Shocked, she turned around and Ben was down on one knee with a ring in his hand.

Thanks to Ben’s amazing proposal, Haley and Ben won a complete wedding package from DuCoffe Wedding Concierge featuring several local wedding professionals! Her winning package included a gown from Wedding Angels, a bridal bouquet from Blossoms Atlanta, a Bridesmaids Luncheon from PartyChic and KellyKakes, bridal hair styling from Plum Tree Salon, authentic English Shortbread wedding favors from Angel Lane Bakery, month-of-the-wedding coordination from Ducoffe Wedding Concierge, and an Engagement Photo Session and one 16x20 wall portrait from us here at PhotoSynthesis!


Haley wanted farm chic feel to her shoot. We researched beautiful barns in the area, and soon found the perfect location up in Milton, Georgia! When we got to the shoot late in the evening, the sun was still so bright that we ended up exploring the property and finding perfect dirt trails, fences, and pasture space to work with.

In true Southern fashion, Haley showed up in red-hot cowboy boots, and was ready for some fun. Haley and fiancé Ben were open to everything we threw at them, including straddling a fence, and laying in the grass!
Special thanks to Cindy Mincey and family for graciously opening their wonderful Milton farm to us for this fantastic Down Home shoot.
