One of my favorite images.  Honored to be a part of their ceremony, held in Franklin TN.

Just a lovely summer morning with a biplane ride, a fantastic brunch at The 57th Fighter Group Restaurant, conversations about the origins of Bobert, and a stroll around Georgia Tech.  Love you guys, can’t wait for the wedding!

Although a Betrothal is technically a ceremony to celebrate a couple’s engagement, the overall gorgeousness of the day made it feel more like a wedding.   The beautiful intricacy of both the details and the ceremony itself were a testamant to how invested Sunira and Jeremy’s families were in their big day.  The bronze oil lamps and wall decor all seem like fun and games until you see the rangoli they decorated on their own.  Sunira’s uncle led the prayer during the ceremony while her family/friends brought beautifully decorated gift plates to the couple.   This was another one of those events that’s kinda sorta a photographer’s dream come true.

Awesome details, awesome hosts/guests, awesome couple.   The end.

Venue: Tadka Banquet Hall

Hall Decor: Abhilasha

Hair/Makeup: Meena at Looking Good Salon

Since Abbas’s favorite actor ever is Salman Khan, we really tried to channel the Salman + Katrina energy into this shoot.  Unfortunately we couldn’t find a horse for them to ride on short notice, but I think these two give any Bollywood actors/actresses a run for their money.

Thanks Kiran and Abbas for spending the day in the park with me, and congrats on all your upcoming festivities!

Ruhina and Tim met while studying at the Art Institute of Atlanta and created the perfect balance of savory and sweet…both in and out of the kitchen!  Since Ruhina is a pastry chef and owner of the amazing Saffron Cakes, and Tim is a chef for Table 1280 in Midtown, the foodie in me was absolutely stoked for this session.  I loved the unique spin they took by deciding to take photos that truly told their love story.   I’ll save all the sappiness for their wedding post next year and let you guys enjoy the photos instead.

One of the first things Andrea and Alan told me was that they weren’t like the usual “cutesy” couples they’ve seen in engagement photos.  But you know something? You guys are cute,  hilarious, laid back, and so perfectly made for each other…and you can’t hide it!  I have pictures to prove it:

I absolutely adore how your love spontaneously shines through your goofiness and giggles. If Sunday was any indication of how freaking fun your wedding will be, I can NOT wait!  :)

Last week I met up with Suzanne and Chris for an engagement session at Georgia Tech.  Since Tech is my alma mater as well, I was SO excited when Suzanne told me she wanted to take their photos on campus.  We started off around Tech Tower, then walked around campus a bit before heading over to Midtown right before sunset.

Suzanne and Chris, it was lovely hanging out with you guys.  All the best with the wedding planning!

Simply put, Megan and Bryce are kind of adorable. We met up at Lullwater Park for what we thought would be a breezy walk in the park, but what actually turned  into a mini-Indiana Jones adventure.  There were rabid squirrels, a giant bridge that swayed in the wind and an abandoned fort in the middle of the woods.  Luckily for us we missed the giant rolling balls of doom and had a great time anyways.

  

Thank you guys for braving the chilly morning and being such troopers!  We loved hanging out with you two…all the best with the rest of the wedding planning.

While photographing Carla and Lauren last weekend, I realized why I love what I do–photographing people in love is like living in a real-life romantic comedy.  And that’s the best way to describe our session in Centennial Olympic Park. Looking through their photos, it was hard to tell that it was actually quite cold the morning of our session…Carla and Lauren just smiled right through it!  At the risk of sounding cheesy, isn’t that was love is all about?  Having someone to hold your hand and smile/laugh with through the rest of life…

This is the *actual* bench where Lauren proposed.  Since he just happened to have the ring box with him, he recreated the moment for the camera.

Judging by her response, I think you need to do this for her every week.

I had such a great time with you two on Sunday.  Thank you for ignoring the cold and being such great sports in front of the camera!
