Monday Night Garage Wedding
Fun, festive and beer-loving of course ! This couple moved to Atlanta from Chicago and celebrated with friends and family from near and far. Monday Night Garage in Lee + White development of Atlanta’s West End provided the perfect location.
Atlanta Mason Fine Arts Wedding / Kelly + Sarat Married
Modern Art, graffiti by the train tracks, gorgeous mehndi, heartfelt and hilarious family and TONS of dancing. That’s how I’ll remember Kelly + Sarat’s gorgeous, chic, colorful + modern Atlanta wedding.
Atlanta Cator Woolford Gardens & Jackson Street Bridge Engagement
Blossoms beginning, wisteria. Warmer sunsets. Longer days. Let the seasons of love begin.
Taylor & Jon recently booked me for their Manor Golf & Country Club wedding this autumn. I always like to gift couples an engagement session, so we can get to know each other and make some beautiful images together. These two asked for some of my favorite locations, and I was stoked to share Cator Woolford Gardens and the Jackson Street Bridge skyline with them. We chatted foodie nerdy things, the early stages of dating evolving into love, and all things Spring in Atlanta.
So looking forward to being more a part of their story and union <3
Sweetwater Creek Sunset Engagement Session
Laughing so hard my face hurt. That’s not how I always leave a workday, but it sure was how I spent my session with Sarah & Nick. These two had known each other since high school, parted ways, and reconnected. Deciding to say “forever-ever,” they chose me to capture their wedding later this year at Atlanta’s Oakland Cemetery. We decided on Sweetwater Creek State Park and Home Depot for their Engagement Session. One location I’m very familiar and confident with, and the other admittedly a creative challenge.
It was so great to wander in the light with these two, and I cannot wait to capture their love story this autumn !
Why your photographer does not want to go to a park.
Parks are fine. My dog loves them. My niece and nephew love them. It’s cool to hang a hammock and read a book. Only problem, everyone else loves them, too.
I love. LOVE. when my couples are game to drive just a little (in this case, a mere 20 minutes) to set the mood. Get a little more privacy and intimacy. It really comes through in the images. Sure, if we’re doing a session in a park, and a jogger runs by and says something cute, y’all will laugh. Generally before your shoulders do the weird thing and you ask me where to put your hands.
So, if you ask your photographer “where should we go ?” And they ask you a bunch of questions about what’s important to you for your photographs, and then tell you honestly… there’s a reason !
PSA over. Steamy photos below
