It’s hard to believe it’s been FOUR years since I started Heather Etheridge Photography and even harder to believe that I’m writing a blog about starting a business.

In three short months, Patton has gone from sleeping most of the day to waking up and experiencing the world around him. It’s amazing (and heart wrenching) to see him grow and change into a little man. From things as simple as his first time outside feeling the warm breeze on his face as we left the hospital to his first time wiggling his toes in the grass, he’s constantly immersed in new experiences. There’s nothing like seeing the world through his eyes and watching this tiny human you created take it all in.

Welcome to the world, Carter! I loved spending the afternoon with this sweet family — how cute is big brother?! Neutral rooms, neutral outfits + good lighting will always make for the best in-home sessions & this session had all three. AND an adorable sleepy babe. Enjoy! xo

Sweet baby Blair arrived in March & it was such an honor to spend time with her + her family after she arrived home from the hospital. She slept like a champ for almost the entire session &. has such a sweet, calm demeanor. Welcome to the world, Blair! xo

These first four weeks have been the absolute best and most challenging of my life — nothing feels the same and priorities have completely shifted. I don’t think anything can prepare your heart for the intense emotions that come with the new title of mama. He is our whole world & in honor of this first little milestone I wanted to share his birth story & the best day of our lives — April 26, 2020.

Wayland is six-months old! I love first-year milestone sessions — it’s amazing how quickly babies change & you won’t regret capturing each adorable little phase. Look at this personality! xo

When I was pregnant and building my registry / deciding what products we wanted, I (as I’m sure everyone is) was bombarded with a million recommendations & MUST HAVE items & frankly, as a first time mom, it was overwhelming, so while it’s fresh on my mind I wanted to share the top ten products that we’ve actually used & LOVED during these first few weeks.

I can’t believe that I’m 39 weeks pregnant as I begin writing this — the past nine months have truly flown by & to be honest, as EXCITED + ready as I am to meet our baby, I’ll miss this phase — the little kicks inside my belly, this baby bump that I’ve always dreamed of having, all of the preparation + excitement that’s gone into readying our hearts + home. It’s just such a sweet time & I’ve loved almost every second.

Happy first birthday, Henry! I’ve had the opportunity to photograph this little one on multiple occasions — in mom’s tummy, his newborn photos & multiple times for family sessions and he keeps getting cuter. Until next time, buddy! xo

This was my last session before taking some time off for the 2019 holidays & it’s one of my favorite newborn sessions of all time. GREAT lighting + the sweetest, most calm little newborn. Not to mention, the sweetest mom + dad (who gave me some amazing newborn tips!). So excited to share these gorgeous images. xo

I’m not sure how many of you use the AMEX Delta Card, but Nathan & I both have it & one of the best perks is the yearly companion pass we both receive to travel anywhere domestically (in the contiguous 48). Typically, for the pass on my card, I choose the location & vice versa. SO last year my choice was Arizona!

If you know one thing about me it’s that I hate cold weather. I thrive in a warm, balmy environment & when we travel, it’s always ALWAYS to a warm-weather destination.
And yet, here we are.

Last September I hopped on a plane to Havana with one of my best friends (who shares my passion for travel + adventure), not really sure what to expect and we had the BEST time exploring this city stuck in time.

We strategically plan self-imposed “layovers” in cities we want to visit, but that probably wouldn’t make the cut as a vacation destination on their own and that is exactly how we ended up in Venice for 24 hours on our way to Greece last year.

Nathan here. Let me start with the admission that I was against this trip and it was Heather that convinced me that all the hype and hoopla commonly associated with Greece might just be true. In my mind, there was no way this place was as great as every single person I spoke to made it seem. Well, pie in my face – they were right.

What do you do when your best laid plans for a spring trip to Portugal are nixed because your husband selfishly takes a fantastic new job (!!) that he’s incredibly excited about (!!) a month before you’re supposed to leave? You call your mom. And you book flights to Turks and Caicos the same day. Have fun at work, honey!

If you haven’t been to the jungle-chic oasis that is Tulum, you’ve definitely heard of it. An easy 2-hour flight from Atlanta followed by a 2-hour drive from Cancun & you’ve made it — only to be greeted with white beaches, crystal clear waters & (hopefully!) a mezcal margarita on the rocks.
