About Jina

Natural Photography for Families, Couples & Growing Families in Atlanta

I keep sessions relaxed, easy, and focused on the people in front of me. I’ll give you enough direction so you don’t feel awkward or wonder what to do with your hands, but not so much that everything starts looking stiff and staged. Whether I’m photographing your family, a newborn, a growing bump, or the two of you together, the goal is pretty simple: photos that actually look and feel like you.

GET TO KNOW THE LADY BEHIND THE LENS

Mom. Foodie. Photographer.

By weekday, I’m on the corporate grind. Nights and weekends are a mix of mom life, photo sessions, and plotting whatever trip I can squeeze onto the calendar next.

As a mom to a teenager and a toddler, I’m proud to say I am fluent in both eye rolls and Miss Rachel songs. Different ages, same amount of negotiation.

Photography came into the picture after I was gifted a Canon 20D in 2012, which is really just a fun way of publicly aging myself. I experimented, Googled everything, and spent years terrorizing my daughter with constant photo requests. Somewhere along the way, it turned into a business and a creative outlet that’s stuck around ever since.

When I’m not juggling work, kids, and photo sessions, I’m probably planning a trip, thinking about food, or searching for the exact GIF the situation requires.
