Randi + Jack / The Estate Atlanta & Jackson Street Bridge Engagement Portraits

When Spring is here and flowers begin to bloom, so does love… It’s love’s peak season, and we are so happy to show off another beautiful couple to you all! Randi + Jack came into town for their engagement portraits, and we were a bit concerned because of the rain and had to make a few minor adjustments, but it all worked out in the end!

What a way to start off the year with the Morenos! First of anything in the new year is so special, so it’s a privilege to begin our 2024 blog post with this lovely family. I think you can agree with me that they’re beautiful, right?

Ashley + Jamal / The Venue At Daisy Hill Wedding

Have you heard, “When you know, you know?” I have no doubt that that’s exactly what Ashley + Jamal have felt when they knew that each other was the one for them. But, when it’s God telling you that “he’s the one” or “she’s the one”, it’s a sense of peace that nothing in this world could ever describe.

Natalie + Brendan / Ivy Hall Roswell Mill Wedding

I’m sure you all have heard of a bridezilla? But, did you know? The opposite of a bridezilla is called a brideCHILLA! 🤣 I know… whoever comes up with these terms is pretty clever, and I love it! Well, I’m happy to announce that Natalie is the most brideCHILLA bride we’ve ever had! So calm, collective and cool… I mean seriously… she really was. A bride’s attitude, demeanor and mood set the tone of a wedding day, and she made it so easy going. Because she was prepared, everything was planned and ready to go, the day flowed so smoothly. And, as it should! I always ask, “why would you plan for something for many months and still not have the details straightened out?” Stress on a wedding is so not necessary. Yes, things that no one can control may happen, but for the most part, stress can be prevented, and Natalie + Brendan did just that! Everything was done excellently, and that allowed them to enjoy their day freely! And what a joy it was to see them just celebrate with their loved ones and have a good time. They shed joyful tears with moving speeches and danced the night away… we truly love seeing our couple just be happy, and that makes us happy behind the camera as we get to capture those cheerful emotions. Natalie + Brendan, your wedding will be a great example for us to share to future brides from here on. You guys did a phenomenal job with your big day, and it was our honor to be part of it. Thank you for choosing us!! We hope you’ll cherish these photographs forever…

With much love,

Craig + Unchong

Brittney + Patrick / Ashton Gardens & Swanee Town Center Wedding

Sometimes I wonder how we can be this blessed to have such amazing couples for our weddings? We’ve been in business for 15 years now, and I can honestly say that we have only had literally a handful of “difficult” situations. We don’t take it for granted especially because we have heard some crazy stories. Brittney + Patrick have been so amazing to work with… you may think that I say this about everyone, but that’s not true. We only say what we mean, and seriously… they’re so sweet! You see the smiles on these photos?? Well, they had those smiles on their entire wedding!! It never went away. And, I love that about them! They treat people with such kindness and respect… Our world has gone through a lot of negativity, but I don’t buy into all of that because there’s so much hope for our world now and the future when people like them are in it. They allow me to see the goodness of God and give me faith to stay strong in Him. We enjoyed every part of this big day because of their big smiles and the contagious joy they expressed. Brittney + Patrick, keep smiling and keep influencing our world with much love as you do! We pray that you have a thriving marriage that continues to impact others positively. It was truly a pleasure celebrating you both on your wedding day! We hope you cherish these photos for many years to come! Thank you for having us!!

With much love,

Craig + Unchong

Amy + Collin / At the Lake & Horse Stables Engagement Portraits

The older I get, the more I cherish the people we get to meet… I say, “we get to meet” because it’s a blessing! We truly cherish the relationships that we have made and kept over the years, and we are so old now that I find myself frequently saying, “Oh yeah… we’ve been knowing so and so for over a decade!” LOL!

Traci + Matt / Primrose Cottage Roswell Wedding

We have been waiting for Traci + Matt’s BIG day to arrive, and when it did, it was a BIG deal! We are so happy for this couple for many reasons, but we just knew that this one would be special. Traci has a way of visualizing something and making it come true.
