It’s been a tough winter by Georgia’s standards. With extra cool days extending themselves further than expected into the start of the second quarter, it sure was great to get a perfect day in Atlanta for an engagement session. Meet Margot and Steve — young professionals who really enjoy living and playing in the big city. Steve made his way down from Michigan State to meet the love of his life, Margot, a smart Georgia Tech grad. Together they generate wonderful chemistry. Something you can truly feel from the first moment you meet them. With all of this in mind, the Westside Provisions felt like a natural choice to capture this moment. Mix in some of the High Museum to satisfy Margot’s love for architecture, and you have the makings for a pretty cool Sunday afternoon in Atlanta. We hope you enjoy viewing their day as much as we enjoyed photographing it!
Wedding photography affords us the opportunity to meet many new people every year. Couples that individually generate dynamics all their own. Thankfully, we’ve been privileged to work with so many wonderful brides and grooms. Then we meet Julie and Reet, and the bar rises even further! What a FUN couple. They share a passion for nature and outdoor activities, always traveling to find their next big adventure. Seriously, could photographers have it any better than this? Working with subjects that aren’t intimidated by cameras and willing to try anything? This can’t be called a job!
On this beautiful afternoon, the idea was to shape their engagement session around things that really meant something important to them. This included portraits with their dog Napoleon, shooting at the spot they first met, and finally their favorite pastime, trail biking. We started at the heart of Midtown and finished up at the banks of the Chattahoochee River. Well worth our time and hopefully the images below communicate this. Thank you so much Julie and Reet for bringing us along on this ride. We can’t wait to see you married!

Meet Bruce and Hillary. We were so thrilled to have spent some time recently with this great couple. These Georgia Tech sweethearts are about to get married! It was a slightly chilly afternoon but the sun kept pushing through, allowing us to photograph and enjoy all the corners of this West Highlands park. What a fantastic end to the day.
We are so thrilled to introduce Jordan and Isaac. These two are such a cool, laid back couple that truly appreciates photography. Hey, that already puts them at the top of our list! Seriously, what a pleasure it was spending our Saturday morning with them. It was so nice walking around the Vinings area taking in the sights of the Bradford Pears in full bloom. It appears we are finally breaking out of the strong winter we just had. Although we shot at various spots around this quaint town, I think we can easily agree that the blue Hermi’s Bridge was by far our favorite place to photograph. The light was just gorgeous. Thanks again for a wonderful time!

This post is long overdue. In June of 2013, we had the honor and privilege of meeting up with Ellen and Scott at their home for their engagement session. I’ve known Ellen for quite some time. She and I worked together for years and always kept in touch after we both left our jobs. She is a talented graphic designer and currently owns her own studio SeeMeDesign. If you’re ever in need of a truly creative designer, look no further, she’s your gal. I met Scott thru our breakfast get togethers as she always talked about him. I got to personally meet him on this day. He is quite a guy.
This family is so cute. Now you ask… why did I say family? Well we need to introduce you all to Bradley, a Chihuahua mix they adopted a couple of years ago. Ellen mentioned that Bradley is not really comfortable around strangers but I assured her he would be just fine. She even said they took him to a pet photographer earlier in the year and there wasn’t a single image they could take from the session. Just to keep her mind at ease, we opted to take Bradley to one of his usual spots for his walks—a place he was familiar with and could roam free and be comfortable in his own environment. Well that did it. He was a perfect little gentle dog. We all enjoyed having him around and by the looks of his closeups, he thought the same. I was in love with that devilish smile of his.
The light was perfect that humid afternoon. We’ve been having quite a summer with storms rolling in at any given time but that didn’t stop us from making magic. Ellen you are beautiful and Scott you’re not half bad yourself.
Stop it Ellen. You look amazing.
Bradley pretty much wanted this session all to himself. He was so much fun to photograph. He has a personality all of his own.
After we dropped off Bradley at home, we took a trip to the new Atlanta BeltlLine. The Atlanta BeltLine uses an existing 22-mile historic railway that circles the City. Pedestrian friendly rail transit and 33 miles of multi-use trails will follow this corridor and branch off from it. Once completed, the Atlanta BeltLine will bring together 45 in-town neighborhoods and link them to the entire metropolitan Atlanta region.
Congratulations Scott and Ellen. Your wedding at the Old Edwards Inn was truly spectacular.
