Fairyography was initially only for little girls (but has since expanded in age). These little girls are still in love with fairies and truly believe they are real. I love that age where everything is magical. Kids between the ages of 5 and 12 are still young enough to feel magical but old enough to remember what a magical experience a fairy photo session is. A princess or fairy picture session makes the child feel beautiful and magical, which is essential for her current and future self-esteem. At the ages where girls begin to feel like they're awkward or ugly, a picture on the wall that shows their beauty every day can do wonders. Not to mention, it's totally fun to dress up.
Teenagers who are still into fairies are fewer, but every teen girl can feel beautiful with a glamorous photo session even without the wings. Self-esteem in my teenage years was definitely the lowest point in my own life. If I'd thought of myself as pretty at any point between about 10 and 20 years old, I would have had an easier time of things for sure. I want to make sure every girl has a photo to look at where she feels absolutely beautiful and confident.
Quinceañera and high school senior milestones are a special time in a girl's life and definitely deserve special photos. See the teen gallery for more!
No matter our age, I think every woman wants photos that make us feel glamorous and beautiful, whether that's a moment we make for ourselves alone or share with our children. Getting to play dress-up as an adult is much less frequent but no less fun than it was when we were little. I think the last time I felt pretty was for my wedding pictures, but that's been a long time ago for some women. We can be beautiful at any age!
I'm an Athens photographer specializing in glamorous fairytale portraits for ladies of all ages. Babies and kids are what I'm best known for.
My kids portraits are stress free, fun, and easy. I have a studio client closet so I provide all the dresses, wings and crowns for these fantasy photo sessions.
When I'm posing your kids, they'll look candid, never stiff. I do that by making a fool of myself behind the camera. I was a pre-school teacher before I became a photographer, so I know all about how to manage over-exuberant kids or bring a shy child out of their bubble.
My images speak for themselves. Of course sisters and can sometimes be more of a challenge than single kids. I have years of experience and lots of stupid games to play to get even siblings who don't like each other or are over being touched to pose together for photos. No matter how the photo session looks like it's going, I guarantee that I have at least one of all your kids together looking great and at least pretending to have fun.
My style is colorful and fun. Vibrant photos are important to show off the real character of your children. I am known for being patient and taking the time to get a shy child to open up, or waiting for a silly kid to calm a bit. The true smiles and real expressions captured in my photography will make the personalities of each child shine. I'm well known for being patient and calm and for being able to get amazing images of siblings together.
A couture photography experience that focuses on a senior's true beauty – inside and out. I will transform your graduate into the wonderful women she wants to be, and she will feel like she just walked out of the pages of a fairy magazine. Her classmates will have nothing that looks like this, a truly unique senior portrait experience.
The bond between mothers and daughters is like nothing else. Every mother should take a time for a priceless experience with her daughters and create lifetime lasting memories. Enjoy a glamorous photo session while celebrating your mother & daughter relationship. As your daughter grows and changes, the bond between you will also change. From the deep and protective love you have for your baby to the wonder you feel for your ten year old, to the changes in her teenage years and then to the bond you have as adult women, your relationship constantly evolves, growing deeper and more mature as the years go by.
Sky the magical unicorn comes back every year in June to make little girls happy! We will meet in the early morning in the summer before it gets super hot out. The magical sessions usually have a wait list so make sure you sign up as soon as they are released! See the Unicorn Sessions page for more information!

"I truly, truly, truly LOVE my album and wouldn't change anything. It truly is even more beautiful than I could have anticipated--the weight is unreal for that front cover and the leather is just absolutely perfect with the overall design choices. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE. I so wished that I lived in your area and that I could have been in your presence when I saw my album for the first time because you deserve to see the joy, the absolute delight in beholding all of that angsting over those pictures come full circle.""
Best photorapher ever!
