IT WAS A TOUGH TEN DAYS WHEN WE THOUGHT WE MIGHT LOSE OUR MUCH-LOVED MACY GRAY.  WE LEARNED TODAY THAT THE INFECTION HAD BEEN CAUSED BY AN IN-GROWN TOENAIL AND ONLY THE SURGERY PROVIDED BY SOUTH FORSYTH ANIMAL HOSPITAL COULD HAVE SAVED HER.  THANK YOU SO MUCH DR O’NEAL!  MACY GRAY IS ALMOST BACK TO NORMAL!MACY GRAYPATRICIAGAGNEPHOTO.COM

The project to find a model for my beautiful garden dress is taking shape beautifully.  There will be six contestants – lovely three year olds with beautiful smiles! Here is the first entry– to give you an idea of what is ahead.  I will call for a vote when all six paintings are complete.  Outdoor photography with children can have thrilling results.

  • My relationship with this family began with the maternity portrait.  Vivien was so alive, so full of the joy of having her first child!  Here she is in February:

Rhett, the new Dad, was with us all the way through the shoot.  And he posed with Vivien for the Mom and Dad Awaiting Baby portrait.blog07-09twowww.patriciagagnephoto.com

And four months later, we have Blake at the center of this happy family.  For his first sitting we did the baby, above all, of course.  But also we squeezed in Mom and Baby, Dad and Baby, and First Family Portrait!  You can feel the love in this family, and that is why I have titled the collage I created from this session “First Love”.blog07-08ten

And finally I can’t NOT show some images of Blake from this baby, family portrait session.

When a client called and asked me to take an old photo from the 1960’s and make it into a painted portrait, I jumped at the challenge.  As you can see, the background of the original as well as the quality of the print presented serious issues.  The client told me how this was her favorite picture of her husband  - how much it meant to her.  I was impressed with the feeling behind the request and set to work determined to create a portrait worthy of having a place as a wall portrait. One of the great things about being a family photographer is that there is a new challenge every day.  It NEVER gets boring!

Here is another type of restoration.  A beautiful painting damaged by time and who knows what else. An artist friend of mine asked me to work on this and we agreed it looks like new!

Here are the results of my desire to create a painting that would capture the beauty and loving relationships between my daughter and her children.  As a birthday present I gathered the special clothing-   it certainly made me realize what my clients have to go through to create just the right look.  Jack, who is 6, certainly came through- leaning right into the picture.  Kelsey, nine this week, is a little actress with endless aplomb.  And Katherine, 11 1/2, is a young lady now.  It all came together- under that beautiful smile of my daughter, and those fills with intelligence and love.  I am so proud of my family– and of husband and Dad Brian who made it all happen!
