jonas peterson

i literally felt something in the pit of my stomach viewing this wedding
and is this portrait even real?
so much creativity my head could explode!

and the dude gets to travel the world. and awesome clients. and keeps it real.

the apartment | design

i take little credit for the design; it's all lea and her mad design skills. but she got me and what i like:
- white
- clean surfaces
- minimal clutter
- low budget

working within the unit i picked out
- tall, exposed concrete ceilings
- light floors, cabinets, and countertops
- floor to ceiling windows and LOTS OF NATURAL LIGHT

:D

p.s. listen to this while browsing!

the o. family | 2010

how i came to photograph this family is not the norm. after 6 years of sitting at a desk, i noticed some parts of my body were, well, a little less tone than i'd like. my sister got a personal trainer before her wedding and had been telling me to get one for a while now. i agreed to look into to, but my sister knew i would put it off. so she sent me a phone number and said "call her."

who is "her"?

meet amber, owner of cafe physique, an all-around healthy living company here in atlanta. this company has it all. personal training? check. yoga? check. dietary counseling? check.

so i signed up for 25 sessions. during our conversation, we got to talking and i mentioned i took photographs. well, one thing led to another and we met up a week or so later at a park to photograph amber and her family.

enjoy!
