Welcome

Five Nineteen Photography is named for 5.19.07...the date my daughter was born and the day the necessity of capturing moments forever became much more than a desire, it was a necessity! Since this date I have been honored to capture countless moments for friends, family and clients. I look forward to being able to work with you to catch your treasured memories and give them back to you to hang on your walls and carry in your heart!

This blog is where I post sneak peeks of my latest work work, ideas, inspirations, contests and specials! Please check back often to keep up to date!

I love hearing from my readers, so if you have feedback, please leave a comment! I'm always happy to answer questions, feel free to email me at info@519photography.com.

Theme Shoot with Makeup by Mimi J {Atlanta Portrait Photography}

Last week I had the pleasure of collaborating with Mimi Johnson, phenomenal makeup artist and just an amazingly talented woman. Mimi brought her talented staff & a gorgeous model, Sonja Campbell. I brought in one of my favorite models, Kristin Cooper. We then created a little magic. Here’s just a little peek at one of the looks we created with each of the models….much more to follow!!

Waiting for Xavier – Rebecca’s Maternity Portraits Part 1 {Atlanta Portrait Photography}

Rebecca is a dear friend of my makeup artist Natalie. Since we were introduced a couple years ago it’s been a pleasure getting to know her more! She is one of the most beautiful women I’ve ever met and truly an amazing woman. I was very excited to be able to capture some maternity portraits for her! We did these in a couple different locations, so here are my favorite’s from our first spot!55

Miss Sophie – All Ready for Thanksgiving {Atlanta Portrait Photography}

I’ve known Sophie’s parents since their wedding…so it’s been a pleasure to watch Miss Sophie’s growth over the years! She’s a little sweetheart and looks just like her Daddy! Her family lives in Texas now, so I’m very happy to have had the chance to photograph her! Here are a few of my favorites from the session…

A Mother’s Prayer for Her Daughter By Tina Fey

This is too perfect not to share…I think every parent can relate to this!tinafey

“First, Lord: No tattoos. May neither Chinese symbol for truth nor Winnie-the-Pooh holding the FSU logo stain her tender haunches. May she be Beautiful but not Damaged, for it’s the Damage that draws the creepy soccer coach’s eye, not the Beauty. When the Crystal Meth is offered, may she remember the parents who cut her grapes in half And stick with Beer. Guide her, protect her when crossing the street, stepping onto boats, swimming in the ocean, swimming in pools, walking near pools, standing on the subway platform, crossing 86th Street, stepping off of boats, using mall restrooms, getting on and off escalators, driving on country roads while arguing, leaning on large windows, walking in parking lots, riding Ferris wheels, roller-coasters, log flumes, or anything called “Hell Drop,” “Tower of Torture,” or “The Death Spiral Rock ‘N Zero G Roll featuring Aerosmith,” and standing on any kind of balcony ever, anywhere, at any age. Lead her away from Acting but not all the way to Finance. Something where she can make her own hours but still feel intellectually fulfilled and get outside sometimes And not have to wear high heels. What would that be, Lord? Architecture? Midwifery? Golf course design? I’m asking You, because if I knew, I’d be doing it, Youdammit. May she play the Drums to the fiery rhythm of her Own Heart with the sinewy strength of her Own Arms, so she need Not Lie With Drummers. Grant her a Rough Patch from twelve to seventeen.Let her draw horses and be interested in Barbies for much too long, For childhood is short – a Tiger Flower blooming Magenta for one day – And adulthood is long and dry-humping in cars will wait. O Lord, break the Internet forever, that she may be spared the misspelled invective of her peers And the online marketing campaign for Rape Hostel V: Girls Just Wanna Get Stabbed. And when she one day turns on me and calls me a Bitch in front of Hollister, Give me the strength, Lord, to yank her directly into a cab in front of her friends, For I will not have that Shit. I will not have it. And should she choose to be a Mother one day, be my eyes, Lord, that I may see her, lying on a blanket on the floor at 4:50 A.M., all-at-once exhausted, bored, and in love with the little creature whose poop is leaking up its back. “My mother did this for me once,” she will realize as she cleans feces off her baby’s neck. “My mother did this for me.” And the delayed gratitude will wash over her as it does each generation and she will make a Mental Note to call me. And she will forget. But I’ll know, because I peeped it with Your God eyes. Amen.” -Tina Fey

but seriously God…if you would…please :)

The Dixon Family {Atlanta Portrait Photography}

I have known Bonnie for about 10 years now! We worked together in a restaurant and her bubbly personality has not changed one bit! We’ve had many good times together and nothing makes me happier than to see her as happy as she is today with her beautiful family! Kevin could not be more perfect for her and I wish them a lifetime of making each other laugh :) ! Zach needs no words….I mean really, with the curls and the eyes?! He’s perfection! Thank you Bonnie, for letting me capture these memories for your family!
