Melinda + Ryan / Savannah's Cathedral of St. John the Baptist & Savannah Country Club Wedding

Savannah, GA... the only memory I have of this place was when I was in high school, my mom and her friends wanted to go spontaneously from August, GA to get some fresh seafood.  So, we got there at night, had dinner and drove back!  So, I never got to see anything in daylight.. 

Darby + Cody / Lambert's Vintage Wines West Virginia Wedding

Darby + Cody / Lambert's Vintage Wines West Virginia Wedding

So... we booked Darby + Cody's wedding months ago and knew that our trip to West Virginia was coming for awhile. When we have destination weddings, we try to drive it because we just don't like to take any risk with our equipment getting lost or damaged if at all possible.  Plus, we like road trips especially Craig... we love the scenery and sometimes we so wish we had a couple to take photos of when we see some magical places as we drive by them.  

Zehra + Mohsin / Hilton Atlanta Northeast Wedding

Zehra + Mohsin / Hilton Atlanta Northeast Wedding

We got to spend not one, but three days with Zehra + Mohsin!  Just as culture is different, it's fascinating to see how every culture has their own way of doing weddings.  Where did these traditions come from?  How did they implement the traditions?

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.  

Brittney + Kyle / Piedmont Park Post Wedding Portraits

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!

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.  

Stephanie + Sydney / Flint Hill & Downtown Norcross Wedding

Stephanie + Sydney / Flint Hill & Downtown Norcross Wedding

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!!

Crystal + Sean / Ritz Carlton & Southern Exchange Atlanta Wedding

Crystal + Sean / Ritz Carlton & Southern Exchange Atlanta Wedding

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.  

Latoya + Taji / McDaniel Farm Park & Buckhead Lamborghini Post Wedding Shoot

Latoya + Taji / McDaniel Farm Park & Buckhead Lamborghini Post Wedding Shoot

It's so cool how we have a unique story to tell for every shoot that we do.  Through these stories, we remember all of our couples.  We shoot about 40 weddings a year (give or take about 5) and  about 50 portraits sessions and other gigs. That's a lot!

When you’re in the moment, you sometimes just don’t know what’s going on.  You wonder why it’s happening.  Your comprehension becomes very limited and you just can’t wrap your head around it.
