As I’ve been working on revamping my website, I’ve also taken to polishing up some of the less accessible links. You won’t be able to get to my wedding portfolio from my main site, as I very rarely advertise that I take them… but I do occasionally shoot a wedding here and there. If you want to check out my wedding portfolio, visit www.catnorman.com/wedding. New design!

Week 1: The End of Winter

Onward!

admin — Thu, 18 Feb 2010 04:21:34 +0000

For the sake of continuity, I wanted to repost this announcement:

Cat Norman Photography is going international! Tomorrow!

In case you somehow haven’t heard… I have gotten the wonderful opportunity to move to Prague in the Czech Republic. What does this mean for Cat Norman Photography? I will no longer be accepting event, architectural or portrait work in Atlanta, Georgia. I will be keeping the business up though! I’ll now be focusing solely on world photojournalism and personal work.

So subscribe to my photo blog and my personal blog if you’d like to follow my continuing adventure and hold your breath wait in anticipation for a new, revised www.catnorman.com! See you in Europe!

Grafite

Gavin and Alyssa of Grafite are two of my designers ever. They do store design with an emphasis on using found and recycled objects, as far as I can understand. The short answer is that they have an incredible eye for detail and sustainability. This week, I got to photograph one of their recent store fronts – Aviary. They used wood from an old barn and incorporated yellow stripes and handmade art to make a killer salon store space. Check them out.

Octane – Staff Portraits

This last summer I got the first round of Octane staff portraits (that post here) – involving the capture of individual portraits of their baristas for an upcoming new website. Well with the new location and all, they had some fresh faces for me to get. Above you can see some of my favorite portraits. And below you can see the hilarity that ensued at the new location when we started going after a group portrait. I love these people. I am so lucky I got to work at Octane as a barista and a photographer!

Octane – Emory Village

admin — Sat, 23 Jan 2010 18:11:42 +0000

It’s no secret that Octane Coffee is Atlanta’s best-reviewed and highest-respected coffee bar. They’ve recently expanded and now have two locations in the Atlanta area – westside and Emory village. Well, it’s embarrassing to admit, but I actually hadn’t made it over to their new location until Tony asked me to come get a few photos for them. I tell you honestly, I am blown away by how great it is. They have this amazing porch that will be afternoon daydream of any college professor or student stuck in a stuffy classroom in the spring. And on top of that, the space looks great; the staff is warm, friendly, sleek and stylish; and they serve up the standard Octane best-coffee-in-Atlanta. I highly recommend that you head over there and enjoy a Chemex on the porch.

Maternity – The Riffels

I got the honor of working at Octane Coffee for Tony and Diane for a couple of years when I first came to Atlanta. They are one of the most chill and wonderful couples I know. So you can only imagine my excitement when I heard that they will be having a baby – they are going to make great parents. As you can see, the time is coming close, so I took them out to get a few maternity shots. Congrats again, Tony and Diane!

And, finally, a fun little outtake…
