A LOT ON HER PLATE
See Morgan Jones-Greenberg’s work on your favorite restaurant table.
Turn over a plate at a food and beverage establishment in Atlanta, and you’re likely to see the work of Morgan Jones-Greenberg, Chamblee resident and the principal of West Midtown’s Table One Hospitality Group. As the sole Georgia rep for Steelite, a leading manufacturer of hospitality- grade dinnerware, flatware and glassware, she’s more than likely the one supplying restaurants with everything you see on the table at your favorite restaurant.
Jones-Greenberg went straight into her metier after graduating in 2006 from Rollins College where she majored in international business. A childhood best friend’s father had a contact at Steelite and connected her. “This career fell in my lap,” she says. She worked her way through customer service, product management, manufacturing, marketing and other facets of the business, and was eventually asked to helm the Georgia business in a representative partnership that began in 2015. Now she shows Steelite china, glassware, flatware, banqueting and buffet equipment to thousands of Georgia-based customers in her 4,000- square-foot, by-appointment showroom. Here, she explains how the business works.
Who can come to Table One Hospitality Group?
We get everyone from independent restaurants to stadiums, convention centers, hotels, country clubs and chain restaurants. It’s anyone who needs a fork and a knife for a business in Georgia. It’s really hard to shop for this stuff out of a catalog. They need to get their hands on the product. I enjoy helping them bring their tabletops to life...

Our May issue is officially out, and it's all about YOUNG INNOVATORS MAKING AN IMPRESSION!
For some, a knack for entrepreneurship reveals itself early. Business lore goes that Sir Richard Branson, now the brains behind Virgin Atlantic and Virgin Hotels, started a magazine at 16; Berkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffet sold packs of gum as a child; and now-famous fragrance and candle innovator Jo Malone started making her own scents from her family’s garden at 9 years old. Closer to home, we’ve found kids and teens who are dreaming big and creating companies with hard work and innovative ideas. Read on to learn about a philanthropic jewelry designer, hardworking lemonade purveyors, a creative DJ, an industrious cookie cake maker and more. Who knows? We might have the next generation of big idea makers right in our backyard.
The wait is over! Grab your copy at one of over 400 locations or click the link in our bio to dive into the digital edition now.

The cameras are still rolling! 🎬✨
We’re thrilled to bring you the second half of our Behind the Cover look at the current entertainment issue. The energy remained high as our team continued the shoot at the massive, 135-acre Assembly Studios complex, just north of Buckhead.
Our stunning cover model and Brookhaven resident, Colby Natasha Nixon (@colbynatasha ), truly brought the "Jewel Box" event space to life. As the star of CBS’s "Beyond the Gates" (which films right on-site at Assembly!), Colby showcased a pair of vibrant, spring-ready looks curated by the brilliant Jeresa Featherstone.
From the West Coast flair of the wardrobe to the meticulous hair and makeup artistry, this shoot was a true celebration of Atlanta’s booming film and fashion scene. Step behind the scenes with us and watch the action unfold! 📺
Read the full profile on Colby’s meteoric rise to stardom on page 74. Make sure to pick up your free copy of Simply Buckhead while this issue is still on stands!

🎥 BEHIND THE COVER: Lights, Camera, Action! 🎬
We are so excited to give you a sneak peek into the making of our entertainment issue’s cover! For this shoot, there was only one location that made sense: the incredible, 135-acre Assembly Studios complex, located just a few miles north of Buckhead.
We tapped the incredibly talented rising star, Colby Natasha Nixon ( @colbynatasha ), to be our cover model. Colby currently stars as Kat Richardson on CBS’s "Beyond the Gates" soap opera, which is also proudly filmed right here at Assembly! 🤩
(Pro Tip: Check out the full profile on this Brookhaven resident’s meteoric rise to daytime soap stardom on page 74!)
Watch as our team gathers in the studio’s "Jewel Box," an elegant event space used for hosting, to photograph a pair of spring-perfect looks. These outfits were styled by the show's brilliant costume designer and stylist, Jeresa Featherstone, a recent transplant from Los Angeles who brought some serious West Coast flair to the A.

Photography for new Atlanta BeltLine restaurant Azara, photographed October, 2025.

I really love this image. I rarely shoot with natural light because it's so mercurial and prone to change at a moment's notice.
•
But I added my lights to a cool natural light setup that I noticed for a multi-light-source photo of this really fun and dramatic cocktail.
•
Go check out the roof at Araza this weekend.
•
@azaraatl blends longevity, flavor, and community through a seasonal, chef-driven menu rooted in an Earth-to-Table philosophy—using fresh, nutrient-rich ingredients to craft food and drinks that nourish both body and soul.

New work: Dyana Nematalla owner of Sirène Salon at King Plow, photographed for the March/April Issue of Simply Buckhead.

"I couldn’t find where I belonged. Buckhead wasn’t totally my scene, and neither was Inman Park. There wasn’t anything elevated but cool. Everything was either old-school and very fancy or grungy. I missed that high-end, cool, French girl look. I met these amazing stylists who had come from LA, Elise Kelley and Abby Andre. We started collaborating; they’d do the color, and I’d do the cut. We were sent people in the movie industry at the time, and we made those clients our niche. That’s how Sirène was created, and it just exploded."
•
This is one of my favorite recent portraits. I love the strength of this pose and how Dyana sits in the middle of and absolutely owns this bright, expansive space.
