With a classic yet distinctly modern style, Nina creates refreshing, compelling portraits that document the honesty of real life. She enjoys simply being a witness to the whimsical, often unpredictable but never boring state of children being themselves, and finds that within the seemingly mundane stuff of the eveveryday resides the story of who your child is at a particular moment in time. Portraits make these telling, all-too-fleeting moments indelible.

And yes, this is all just a fancy way to say that not only is it important to capture your family as they grow but also that, one day, your Nina Parker Photography portraits will be as prized by their subjects as they were by you through the years.

“I wish I could explain to you how much joy these photos bring to us, to our extended family, and to our friends. I know that I will never do that adequately. So, while I try to find the words, I'll just say an enormous thank you for photographing our family on A.'s special day, and for doing it so beautifully.We are so very grateful.” ---E.

“There are few times in my life where I am struck speechless. One of those times was when I saw the pictures of my daughter. Your love for what you do created a picture that made me cry - thank you for capturing this very special moment in my life.” --Tania

“Thanks Nina!!! We love them! The fact that you got all three of them to smile at the same time is amazing. :)These are beautiful and we are so happy with the way they turned out!!” --Jen

“Awesome, awesome, awesome!!!!! Thank you!!!!!I still am in awe at how beautiful these turned out! You have such a gift!” --Jessica

Nina

I am so thrilled that you are considering a Nina Parker Photography session. It has been my pleasure and privilege to photograph what surely are Atlanta’s loveliest children and families over the past five years. As always, I appreciate the trust clients place in me to capture today’s moments, which will in turn bebecome tomorrow’s treasures.

Please take a few moments to browse this guide and imagine your ideal portrait session. I look forward to meeting you!

hello!

The number one comment overheard at the conclusion of a Nina Parker

Photography session is dad’s declaration, “that was much easier than I

thought it would be!” To be sure, the entire proceedings are relaxed and

easy-going, the polar opposite of what you may have come to expect

when “portraits” are on the agenda. The end result? Honest images that

are full of life and yet artistically refined or, as I like to think of them, “an

ever-so-slightly prettier version of real.”

II find that the number one concern before a session is that the children

will not cooperate or will have an “off” day. In other words, while couples

hire a wedding photographer simply knowing that every detail of that

day will be breathtaking, families choose a portrait photographer hoping

against hope that their results will be as lovely as those on the artist’s

site. Rest assured that another comment frequently overheard--this one

once mom has seen the images for the first time--is “I cannot believe the

beautifulbeautiful moments you captured from what seemed to be chaos with not

a moment spent still!”

the signature session

Your signature session features a custom-styled shoot at your home, both indoors and outdoors, or an alternate location if you prefer. Between twenty-five and thirty portraits featuring detailed, artistic processing of each image will be presented to you at your personal Ordering Session. A custom online ordering gallery for friends and family is available after the Ordering Session.

Location session fee ~ $150

(applies locations within a 20 mile radius of zipcode 30067)(applies locations within a 20 mile radius of zipcode 30067)

Your session fee includes the time and talent of the photographer, the session itself and the creation of your images, editing and post processing, and your personal Ordering Session. Prints and products, including digital files, are purchased separately.

MMost clients opt for the ultimate record of their family’s life at a particular point in time--the beautiful session album featuring all of the images from your session. Archival desk and wall portraits, museum fine art gallery wrapped canvases, and digital images may also be added to your order if desired.

SSessions typically last between one and one and a half hours, and longer for newborns. Sessions are held on weekdays and select weekends based on availability.

Prices do not include Georgia sales tax. Nina Parker Photography accepts all major credit cards and checks.

Newborn sessions--what could be more delightful? Expectant families will want to hold their place on the calendar by booking a newborn session before the baby arrives whenever possible. Once the baby arrives, an exact session date is scheduled, ideally during the first 1-2 weeks of life.

NewboNewborn sessions may take place in the client's home or the studio, with a few key differences. Essentially, newborn sessions at home take on a more "lifestyle" or environmental feel as we are able to capture babies in their first home and in-corporate their surroundings more. With that said, clients who come to the studio do often bring blankets, hats, etc. from home so there's a personal touch. The primary benefit to the studio--other than that it is a great option if your home is lacking in natural light--is that the bare, contented images of newborns ththat you see on my site are much more easily captured in the studio. If capturing bare, curled-up images are a top priority for you, you will want to elect a studio newborn session. If swaddled images of your baby in his or her very first home are important, you’ll wish to choose an at-home session. I enjoy both types of shoots equally and, regardless of location, I always follow the baby's lead with lots of time for diaper changes, nursing, etc. I try to keep things as relaxed and stress-free as they can possibly be during such a harried yet wondrous time!

Our exquisite canvases are a work of art and a conversation piece in one. Your image is painstakingly printed on artist’s canvas, stretched around a sturdy frame, and lustre-coated for added protection. Best of all--canvases arrive ready to hang! Standouts give a similar effect in that they are unframed and stand out from the wall. These clean, modern pieces are lustre prints mounted on foamcore which is then finished around the edges and comes with hanging openings in the back. They are ready to display the minute they arrive in your home.

Time and care are devoted to retouching each image before prints are created. Images are then developed pro-fessionally according to the highest archival standards. Portraits 11x14 and larger are lustre-coated for protection (and for the option of framing with or without glass) as well as mounted. Mounting ensures that your heirloom por-traits remain perfect both before and after framing.

After your personal Ordering Session an online ordering gallery will be posted for friends and family.

Or perhaps you're a friend of a client who wants to get a small taste of what it's all about.
