Atlanta Candid Family Photographer and Videographer for Natural, In-Home & Outdoor Sessions
Hey there! Welcome to my blog.
I don’t blog on a strict schedule, but I do share things here when I have something worth talking about—recent family photography sessions, behind-the-scenes glimpses, tips for planning a documentary photography session, and some of the everyday moments that make family photos meaningful. If you’re looking for something specific, you can browse the search drop-down menu. And if you’re here looking for an Atlanta family photographer or videographer, hopefully you’ll get a good feel for how I approach family photography: relaxed, honest, and focused on your real life rather than perfectly posed moments.

Candid photographs are magical. It’s that simple. Yes, my clients of course know they are being photographed, but the connections and personalities that shine through when they are just being themselves and I am making documentary family photographs are deliciously real. I don’t know how often I compose a documentary shot and think “Whelp…I just couldn’t have made that up,” because real life is the best! People, and families, are silly and complex, and while portraits are an important piece of history, the artful candids are so much more interesting.

Capturing Moments Through candid family photography: A Year in Review and Looking Ahead to 2024
It was such a wonderful year for Chanda Williams Photography, and I am very grateful for every family whose life I got to take a peek into…This year really solidified my desire to work on long term projects with families. I adore the long-term relationships I've built with clients as we work together to tell their family story. When there is a trust a rapport already established, I'm able to slip into the moment and get beautiful and honest photos of family life

Documentary family photography means unposed candid family photography of real life. Portraits are important too, but documentary photos preserve your memories in a special way. A real way, that transports you back to this precious moment your family is in right now.
