The Blisses - Sunshine and Smiles Photography by Sandi Purinton


This family took time out of their busy Halloween weekend for a quick photo shoot.  After our shoot, they had chili cook-offs and trick or treating to attend to.  It was a great morning with an even better afternoon to follow.  Thanks, Blisses, you're a beautiful family.





Logan & Wes - Maternity Shoot - Sunshine and Smiles Photography by Sandi Purinton


I was thrilled when my friend, Logan, asked me to do her maternity shoot.  Logan is one of those people that you meet who is so truly beautiful, inside and out.  She always has a kind word and a smile for everyone she meets.  She and her husband, Wes, are going to be great parents, and I can't wait to meet their son, Wyatt.












G.I. Tucker - Sunshine and Smiles Photography by Sandi Purinton


Tucker's grandmother wanted some pictures of him at three years old (she'd previously had pictures of his two sisters at three years old).  She wanted his to be a little different (the girls had been photographed with flowers), and she decided that she'd photograph him playing with his dad's original G.I. Joes in full G.I. Joe gear.   What a handsome fella this guy is!  He started this session off shy, hiding behind Grandma's leg, but that is part of what made him so charming.

Jeff & Sonja - Sunshine and Smiles Photography by Sandi Purinton

What a fun birthday surprise! -- Pretend to be a supermodel for a morning with your honey.  Jeff surprised Sonja with a photo shoot for her birthday.  Shooting with them was a lot of fun, and an adventure - my first time at the Krog Street Tunnel.

Nick & Trisha - Engaged! - Sunshine and Smiles Photography by Sandi Purinton

I was so thrilled when the "gorgeous softball lady" asked me to shoot her engagement party.  What a fun couple!  The party was at the Sweetwater Brewery in Atlanta, GA.  Trisha runs her own sports league - Ultimate Sports of Atlanta - check them out!  Nick is the most laid back,  cool attorney I've ever met...and being a paralegal by day, I've met a lot of attorneys.  They are getting married on November 3, 2012, and I'm sure a good time will be had by all.  Best wishes and congratulations to a great couple!

A Taste of Home - Sunshine and Smiles Photography by Sandi Purinton


My family went to my hometown, Eastman, GA, for Labor Day to visit and relax with family.  Parker was able to climb onto a tractor, walk down the railroad ("choo choo") tracks and swim like a fish in my Aunt Robin's pool.  I was also able to work in some photo sessions for some of my old friends, and I was able to do my first boudoir shoot.  It was a busy weekend chock full of fun.
