I’m Christina! I’m a photographer based in Monroe, Georgia. I’m all about making you feel at ease in front of the camera and having fun while we create some amazing memories together.

You can stop looking... You've found your photographer!

I know exactly how you feel right now. As a mother of four beautiful daughters, I remember the indescribable wonder of pregnancy and the overwhelming joy (and exhaustion!) that comes with welcoming a new baby. These fleeting moments deserve to be treasured, and I’m here to help you hold onto them forever.

How We Make Photo Magic Happen

 Around Monroe, Athens, and Atlanta, I create maternity sessions that embrace all the beauty and magic of this season. With over 20 years of experience — and as a mom of four myself — I know how to make you feel comfortable, confident, and glowing. I’ll walk you through the whole process, from picking a gorgeous location to striking natural, flattering poses that show off your bump and the love surrounding you.

To make things even easier, I’ll share a pre-session planning guide full of location ideas and what-to-wear tips. We’ll make sure everything comes together perfectly! The best time for your maternity session is around 33 to 36 weeks, when you’re beautifully showing but still feeling good enough to enjoy the experience.

Pregnancy is a wild ride, full of everything from pure excitement to those little baby flutters that take your breath away.

Maternity Photography

The newborn stage goes by in the blink of an eye. It’s a whirlwind of tiny hands, sleepy grins, and the softest snuggles that make your heart melt. As an experienced newborn photographer serving Monroe, Athens, and Atlanta, I know how to preserve these precious details in a way that’s safe, gentle, and stress-free. My calm and patient approach, combined with years of working with babies, means both you and your little one will feel totally at ease during our session.

I bring a collection of soft blankets and wraps, finding the perfect cozy spot in your home with beautiful natural light. We’ll capture those classic newborn portraits along with genuine, heartwarming moments of your family just being together. And here’s a fun bonus: book your maternity session with me and save 20% on your newborn session!

You’ll get a private online gallery within 7 days (because waiting isn’t fun!) where you can view, download, share, print, or even order products. I’m all about making things easy for you so you can focus on soaking in every moment of these first days with your baby.

Why Newborn Photos Are a Must for Every Family

 I guide you through every step, from posing to soothing, so you can relax and enjoy the moment.

STRESS-FREE EXPERIENCE.

"She asked some strategic questions and then photographed us as if she'd know us forever. Her eye is amazing, her patience with a wiggly family of four seemed unending, and we had our pictures back SO quickly. She was personable and it felt like we'd made a friend. Our photos are beautiful and will be treasured forever. We will definitely have A Focused Life take our family photos the next time we are in the area." 
— Risa H.

"We cannot praise A Focused Life enough! Christina perfectly captured our family."

— Lisa B.

"Love her.  She is flexible, laid back and easy to work with."

— Shanaz L.

"Very patient and creative!"

First of all, congratulations on your growing family! I know how special these moments are, and I’m so excited to help you capture them. As a mom of four, I get it—the joy, the chaos, the love. Every tiny detail matters, and I want to make sure you can look back on these precious memories with a smile for years to come.
