engaged!

These two just celebrated two years of togetherness. They have an unparalleled love for each other, The Princess Bride, and their dog Buttercup. David was getting ready to move into a new home and throw a housewarming party. One set of his friends had a new roommate and asked if they could bring her to the…

Right from the start, these two overwhelmed me with their kindness and hospitality. Even offering me a guest room up at Lake Burton because it was a bit of a drive from Atlanta. We started on the upper level of Laura’s dad’s boathouse. It was such a gorgeous afternoon. The weather was perfect! I may…

Vanessa + Josh are transplants from Philadelphia. They are both accountants and met through work. In an email before their engagement session, she had told me they were not your standard bean counters. And that was the truth. These two were over the top fun combined with a dry sense of humor. My kind of…

Amanda + Jake are the sweetest. We met at Winn Park just a couple of blocks from Piedmont Park. They brought their puppy Mickey. (He’s not really a puppy any more, but I call all dogs puppies. Even when they’re over ten. Because they have soft ears.) He was the cutest! They brought along a…

Right from the start, I knew I liked these two. We took a couple minutes to decompress from a start that was a few minutes late and ultimately did not affect our time together. We made a few photographs where we first met and started walking. I was able to tease them a little and…

Meet Nicole + Ross. They are Minnesota transplants who recently moved to Atlanta. They did a fabulous job of making it through a sweltering two hours on this hot Atlanta evening. Without sweating. They weren’t even glistening. For having dealt with sub-zero winters for their whole lives, I get the impression they are professionals at…

We had been planning this session for weeks. Angela + Shawn knew they wanted to have their engagement session at Lake Lanier Islands. They enjoy many weekends on their boat at this lake and wanted photographs running through the sand, in the water, and at the magnificent bridge you drive over after entering the park.…

These two. They cut up. They poke fun. One might be a troublemaker. Alicia is a Wisconsin girl and a Green Bay Packers fan. As a Vikings fan (sorry, folks. I married into it and have no choice in the matter), I gave her the obligatory rival grief. And Warren is a steadfast University of…

Yildiz and Michael are not your average couple. Aside from the obvious, there are other qualities that make them a bit of opposites. Yildiz is outgoing and quick to laugh. Michael carefully chooses his words and is a quiet man. And even though Michael was quiet, it was easy to see how much he adores…
