They were so nice and professional! Mark shared good information and helped in making decision! Amaya and Anaya were very pleasant and patient. I can't remember which one of them took the cap & gown pictures for my boy but she told me that I could be part of the pictures which was very special and I loved it! No one told me that before that was my second time. I was there with my oldest and I wish I knew then! It was Halloween we had Spider-Man taking pictures he was great too!

STAR-SHARPSTAR-SHARPSTAR-SHARPSTAR-SHARPSTAR-sharp The staff members Kristen, Malik and others made my experience at this particular cady studio very fulfilling, my only dislike was the lack of staff resulting in long wait times. My overall experience was fun and delightful. Annette Marshall Nov. 2023

Letter from the Leaders Hey lovelies! Firstly, thank you for welcoming me to the West with open arms. I’m excited to get to know all of you and be an asset to this team. Change can be challenging, but I’m committed to earning my new West Georgia Photo Ops Manager title daily. I know I received Crystal’s stamp of approval, but I will work hard to earn every one of yours. I’m excited to join this team and participate in its growth and success. For those who don’t know, I’m Jameka, and I was initially hired as a photographer in Johns Creek. I’m currently in my second season with CADY, and I have over nine years of experience in photography and four years of operations experience. I said that to say I’m well suited for this role and will do everything in my power to be a Photo Ops Manager that you all can be proud of. I know I’m new to the West, but I’ve noticed many talented and creative people. There is a dedication to the craft that I admire and respect. ATL is full of personality and good vibes, and that has helped make this transition easy for me. Leaving the East was hard, but coming here and getting to know you all has been a joy. I feel fortunate to be able to support this team. As we move through this season, I’m pleased to learn more about this team, celebrate you, and learn from and alongside you. ATL is giving…success, and I love that for us. Thank you so much for all your hard work, dedication and talent. Let’s strive for greatness and go above and beyond with quality in sales and photography. I appreciate each and every one of you. Respectfully & Sincerely - Jameka DeLaine 4

The studio just wouldn’t be the same without THE CHAMPION, Chandra breathes life into any crevice within the studio. Fanatically doesn't come close to her levels of passion. The world's best detective should go to Chandra, not Batman. It simply wouldn't be a Celebration without our renowned author.
