Autrey Mill Nature Preserve, Johns Creek
Photographs by Margaret A. Lemke, Studio

In August I was contacted by LivingSocial.com to see if I would be interested in trying out their services. Like Groupon and other such online voucher deal services, they offer "Deals" to followers for goods and services local to the area in which they live. I thought, why not, plenty of photographers out there are giving this a try, just like restaurants, fitness centers, etc. So, on September 28, my deal starting running. I offered deals for Newborn, Maternity and Lifestyle sessions.
James and Angel bought a Maternity and Newborn session so I get to work with them twice and meet the new little girl they are expecting in October!
When James called to schedule their Maternity/Baby Bump session, Angel was already over 8 months along. Normally these sessions are done in the 7 to 8th month but Angel was still feeling great and moving around just fine.
Like most of my maternity sessions, we start by working outdoors for 1-2 hours before moving to the studio. I love working at Autrey Mill Nature Preserve not just because it's convenient, but as you can see the setting is lovely and it wasn't long before Angel and James were comfortable in front of the camera.
After about 90 minutes at Autrey Mill we headed to the studio for some indoor shots. James had gone shopping and picked up some very pretty pink fabric to drape his lovely wife in. It looked so pretty in the photos.
Lexi was born on October 31 and she's coming in with mom and dad tomorrow for her first photo session. I can't wait to meet her! I've even made a pink crochet had and tutu for her to wear.
Looking for maternity photos? Give me a call at 404-384-7722 for info or to book your session. I also offer a Baby's First Year collection that might be just right for you!
As always, comments are welcome and appreciated.
