JENN MAC PHOTOGRAPHY bio picture
  • Hi! I'm Jenn McPherson, a portrait photographer based out of Atlanta, Ga. I'm a mama of two (girl+boy) that is following her passion in life and enjoying every second (except the 2am editing...). I'm proud to say that my clients become my friends and that makes me sooo happy. I leave my sessions smiling and always have one goal-capture my client's family, as they are, on that day, in that moment. Seeing their life through my lens... Thanks for stopping by my site! Grab a glass of sweet tea and scroll away! Leave a comment too-southerners love a good talker!

Let me say this first before talking about this blog post-excuse my blog. In the midst of 12 sessions to edit (not an exaggeration…ha) I decide to play around with my blog. Ever do that when it’s midnight only to give up by 2 am and then wish you just had it all back the way it was??? Enter ME. With that said, I am totally putting it on the back burner til I get some inspiration to fix it!

Onto my post! This was a FUN shoot. All my shoots are fun, but we had a blast considering when mom booked me I kinda threw up a little (not really, but definitely some nausea was involved). Mom, aka Laura, is an awesome & very well known Atlanta based newborn photographer-you can check out her beautiful work here-and we had talked a few times over email over the past year or so. Small world, our hubbies were at The Citadel at the same time! Cool!! But this time she wanted to book a family session with ME (gulp). There’s something about photographing another photographer that makes you feel so honored that they wanted YOU but at the same time SO worried that they wanted YOU… Will I capture them just as SHE seems them? So many things crossed my mind! It hits you and the pressure mounts. With all of that said, all the nerves went away as soon as they stepped out of the car and we started shooting.  Don & Laura are the cutest couple with these two adorable kids. (I hope Reese and Knox get along this great when they are older) It was so much FUN! They were so relaxed and we just walked, talked and laughed through the whole shoot.

Thank you, Laura for trusting me to capture your family this year. To my blog followers, I  hope if nothing else, you can see how happy they are in these images. This is what family (and this time of year) is all about-loving your hubby, your wife, your kids, your parents as much as you can!! Hope you enjoy these!!

julie newell photography - First and foremost, I have to give looooove! These are so gorgeous. I love the clean color + color pop look. They are perfect as Laura Brett said! I have to ask as I have asked a few other photographers who have this green couch, where o’ where did you get the green couch. Now I know for sure it wasn’t some fluke vintage find by the other two who have it, please share, I am opening my studio in January and I want want want this couch!!!

Warmly,
Julie

I’ve had two shoots so far (this Fall) where the sun has decided to pleasantly *depart* from our session….(It sounds cheesy but the sunlight inspires me sooooo much on a shoot! Maybe it’s the Vitamin D???ha) But not to worry, somehow we still get moments like this…LOVE.

This family I just LOVE to photograph. I met them last fall (we have tons of mutual friends) and instantly loved them all. Now they have a fourth member on it’s way (that I’m sure I’ll love too!) and I get to meet him when he first enters this world. I can’t tell you how much I am looking forward to it. Such an honor to capture a new life entering this world. God’s miracles…

Back to their first little miracle, Levi! We had a fun shoot and Levi was a total ham on our shoot. Y’all are a beautiful family, so blessed! Thanks for letting me spend an afternoon with you! xoxo And yes, LOVE this first one.

Cuuuuuute. | atlanta family photographer

Warning. Super, cute baby boy below.

This age is a favorite of mine anyway but add that Connor is the exact same age as my Knox (literally born on the same day…Katie, we really should have been at the same hospital-that would have made the story better…) and that adorable smile of his, I was smitten! He’s so dang cute! We had some fun too! It was a gorgeous day and a really fun, easy photo shoot! Connor, thank you for being the cutest little boy ever!! Enjoy!

I love all of these and Connor is sooooo cute!! Thank y’all again for letting me take his first pictures!!
