Chattanooga Fall Family Photoshoot with the Catalanos

When a client says they want photos at home? I’m internally sweating and truly honored. Because here’s the thing: Not all backyards were made for golden hour glory. But the Catalanos? They’re family photoshoot during fall in the Chattanooga area was *chef’s kiss*!

Oh my lanta, their backyard sits on an overlook. And as soon as I turned onto their road, I felt it—this was going to be good.

Then I pulled into the driveway. The light was sliding behind the most colorful trees like it had RSVP’d to the shoot. I got giddy real fast.

Even better? This session marked about a year of them putting down roots in a new city. And I got to help freeze-frame that season—right where they’re building it.

Also, their 9-month-old? Suave. Smooth. Basically a baby James Bond. And yes, their first “baby” (read: the furbaby) made a cameo too.
