South Atlanta Photography is committed to transparency and ensuring that you have the best experience possible throughout the creative process. Our strengths are in planning. We want to be crystal clear about exactly what we are setting out to create long before we ever arrive on set or to a location. Things may change due to circumstance or weather, but we want to be prepared and ready to adapt as needed. We also understand that you deserve to know what to expect as well. While, yes, this is a creative endeavor with some unknowns and some “magic”, this is also a collaboration.

The reality is there will always be room for error. However, we want to mitigate your risk by providing you with a professional experience to protect your investment and time. This is a point we want to reiterate. We want to mitigate the risk to your money and time by providing you with the best possible professional service. We know that you will likely be comparing service providers, and we invite you to ask yourself if the competition is doing the same.
