Mimi + John / Savannah River Rapids & Buckhead Atlanta Portraits

Mimi + John / Savannah River Rapids & Buckhead Atlanta Portraits

For Mimi + John's session, we got to see them not once, but twice!  They had a special engagement ceremony in Augusta back in May and so we did some portraits for them there, and then this month, they came up to Atlanta to get some city shots here.

As photographers, it's the most heart breaking thing when photos just stay in hard drives.  Photographs are meant to become art in your home!  One of my favorite thing to do is help our clients design the empty walls of their home and make it come alive! Seeing our clients' expressions when they receive canvases, prints or albums is absolutely priceless! Your photographs are one of a kind, unique art that you should show off!

One of the most common questions we get is, "How do you get your clients?"  We meet them through many different ways, but one of the ways is at weddings!  We meet at least one engaged couple who is very interested in our photography and we book them!  And yes, this is how I met Kyle for the first time!

How many of you have a room in your home that you don't really use?  For us, it was our dining room... We put dining furniture there because that's just what you do.  For many years, I looked into that room and wondered why we even have it when for us, all we did was eat there once a year on Thanksgiving Day.  Since last year, God has been stirring in me a need to pray more and to create a space for this purpose in our home.

As human beings, what matters to us most is the experience.  As consumers, we think that we are purchasing something, but in the end, we are purchasing an experience.  We choose certain stores or brands because we want the experience that they give us.

There's something special and unique we remember from every wedding we have shot, but I must say that Stephanie + Sydney's tops them all!  At that very moment, it was stressful and many decisions had to be made quickly, but you know what?  Everything worked out... in fact, it worked out so great that I think every wedding should be like this!!

I believe that everything happens for a reason.  That nothing is just a coincidence.  Even with our clients, I know that it's more than "just business".  There's more of a reason than just because they booked us.  I know because I believe in a God who is far bigger than that, and I believe that he has everything under control.

As many of you know, I didn't get to shoot with Craig until my mom moved in with us about two years ago.  Before then, my role in our business was mostly all back end things, but thanks to my mom, I've been able to experience some 'front end' things of the business.

Every shoot is special to us, but we got to do something very rare with Sara + Corey, and actually, this is the first time we've ever done this with a couple.  CAR POOL!  We picked them up from their place and drove a little over 2 hours to Lindale Mill in Rome, GA.
