ATLANTA MATERNITY AND portrait PHOTOGRAPHER

DOERS & DREAMERS

for THE 

PHOTOGRAPHY

I'VE HEARD IT ALL BEFORE...

"I'm not photogenic"

"I just need to lose weight first"

"Why do I need all of those pictures of myself?"

"I can't spend that much money on myself"

Listen, let me tell you that YOU ARE ENOUGH!

I mean that from the bottom of my heart.  Self-love is a journey!  I know that firsthand and am working on it daily, but know that you are perfectly and beautifully made, and you owe it to yourself to celebrate that.

I believe everyone can be photogenic when they are being authentic and open. It's my job and my absolute joy to create a safe, fun environment for you to feel comfortable to be yourself and let loose. As far as the details--the styling, the posing, etc---I got you on all of that! 

So, are you ready to schedule that pregnancy photoshoot? Or are you ready to finally get personal branding photography for your growing business? Or are you looking for a creative Atlanta photographer to take photos of you just because? I am your girl!


Transform Moments into Timeless Art

I really believe all photographs look best when printed, but especially maternity and family photography. There's something undeniably magical about adorning your home with your own cherished photographs. 

They are more than just pictures; they're one of kind art pieces that are a reflection of your unique journey.  As you walk past these images each day, you're reminded of the love, joy, and adventures that have shaped the story of your life. 

Let your walls tell your story

Shy Richards, Author

"Stepping in front of the lens was something I was uncomfortable with…I had an obstacle to overcome allowing myself to be publicly critiqued by my peers. I am a creator using my pen or camera to capture the true essence of my art. Working with Tara Gulledge Photography has allowed me to create a new version of art… it felt natural accepting Tara’s direction to coach me into a masterpiece. She told her vision of my story one photo at a time."

Erica Thernize

"Wow just wow! From the moment I walked through the door, Tara made me feel so welcome, loved, and cared for.

This photography session was very important to me as she was capturing one of the most special moments in my life, my first pregnancy! Her knowledge of light and the female pregnant body is remarkable. We tried many different poses and she directed me in such a gentle way. Tara made sure I was always comfortable or needed a small break.

I couldn't be more in love with how my photos turned out. Now that my baby girl is here, I often find myself looking back at these photos and reminiscing on this magical time in my life."

Sarah Spurger

"I truly felt taken care of by Tara from the moment I met her for my initial consultation. On the day of the shoot, you arrive at her beautiful loft and Tara is completely prepared and ready to get to work! I must also note how genuinely warm Tara is. The process of being photographed can be daunting or intimidating and Tara’s presence makes it impossible to hold onto any nerves.

I love how she directed me to get the perfect expression or pose. Her background as an actor really gives her an edge here; Tara knows how to elicit specific, interesting emotions and masterfully capture them within the same moment. I was truly blown away with Tara and her work from start to finish."

LET'S CHAT

I'm so grateful to have found a profession that lights up my heart and mind.

I've been photographing people professionally for 12 years and I still cannot get enough. I started out mainly shooting headshots which grew into capturing fashion inspired portraits that marry creativity and purpose for business professionals seeking branding photos and content. 

I also found my my true passion in capturing Maternity Photography. Always aiming to be Atlanta's best maternity photographer, I don't just provide gorgeous photographs, I provide excellent customer service and a luxe experience. 

Some small facts about me:  I love to read;  my doggie, Greta, is the light of my life; I'm constantly learning new things (sewing, doing my own gel nails, diy home projects...my most recent obsession has been car detailing).



Optimist,
fan of hugs and high-fives
& uplifter of others, always.

Hi, I'm
Tara!
