Hataway Family / Downtown Atlanta Family Portraits

Sometimes it’s mind boggling to me how long we’ve known some people… Hataways for example… I think it’s been like 18 years??? What does 18 years even feel like? What is it supposed to feel like? Well, first of all, it’s even harder to imagine because Stephen + Amber have not aged.

In the past decade, a person has never taken so many photos. Taking photos is something that we all do almost daily! It’s so readily and easily accessible and memories are being captured like never before. It’s funny how we all take pictures everyday, but there are still “professional” photographers.

Recently, it dawned on me that we no longer have babies. Our oldest is 13 and our younger two are 10 and 8. They’re definitely “big kids” now, and we are now officially in a different stage of parenting. When we see parents with strollers, we can’t believe that it seems like that season was so long ago for us.

As much as we try to document our shoots as much as we can through instastories, blogs and the photos themselves, there are so many things that happen during a shoot that we wish we could show you, but can’t due to all sorts of circumstances.

Have you heard of the saying, “Show me your friends, and I’ll tell you who you are?” One of the things my pastor mentions often is that “You are an average of the 5 people that you hang out with the most.” I agree with these two statement 110% and as parents, we always emphasize to our kids how important it is to make good friends.

Through our business, we have had the privilege to connect with many people. Now, through our photography education business, CO Backstage Pass, we are getting to know more photographers more than ever before. We launched this business in March of this year… it has been a dream of ours for several years now.

Every time I write a blog, it gives me a time of refection. I’m thankful that this is part of my job because I have to do it, and it’s good for me. When you reflect on things, it makes you slow down and really realize how much you do have and how much there is to be thankful for.

Fulfillment is a need that we all have as human beings. It gives us purpose and a reason for why we do what we do.  We are really blessed to have clients who gives us their 100% support.  How amazing is that?  Sometimes, It’s just unbelievable to us. Before we introduce our next couple, let me give you a short little history.

appreciate our job more and more as I get older. The flexibility is priceless and the adventure is indescribable. I have to constantly remind myself to not take it for granted. Through our business, we get to see many places and experience all sorts of things, but meeting great people is what we love the most.

We spend our lives trying to perfect everything we do, what we look like, who we are… But, the reality and the truth is, perfection doesn’t exist. It’s a goal that we will never accomplish. When it comes to weddings, we spend way too much time trying to plan a perfect one.
