Laura & Trey

Laura and Trey were married on May 25th. The ceremony was at Peachtree Christian Church. I photographed their wedding with Blue World Studios.  Here are a few of my favorite shots from the day.

Laura and Trey saw each other before the ceremony.  This makes for a more private and personal moment seeing one another for the first time on the wedding day.  

Laura has such a beautiful smile.

Laura and Trey are so sweet together.

Trey's father had this wonderful smile on his face all day long.  He was quite the proud father!

Laura and Trey get some love from the maid of honor and best man.

Laura's dad kisses her as he gives her away.


One of my favorite moments to capture at weddings is when the bride and groom are walking back down the aisle after the ceremony. They're so genuinely happy and excited at that moment, and you can really see it on their faces.


The reception was held at The Fernbank Museum of Natural History.  EJ from Blue World Studios brought some creative lighting and made the room look even more impressive than usual.  You'll notice in other photos that the dinosaur had a great blue glow.  I love this shadow.


The groom's cake was one of the most intricate and impressive I've seen!  It was made by Classic Cheesecakes & Cakes.  The cake was an exact replica of Georgia Tech's "The Ramblin' Wreck."  (And it was amaretto cheesecake - yummy!)

The happy couple under the dino head.

I can't help myself when it comes to babies.  This little guy was quite curious, and his grandma was so proud.

Laura's sorority sisters sing to her.


Last, but not least - the bouquet toss.

Suzanne & Steven

I was the second photographer at another wedding with Lamar Gee Photography on May 3rd. Suzanne & Steven were married at Dunwoody United Methodist Church and held the reception around the corner at The Pavillion of Dunwoody.

Steven waits - eyes covered - waiting to see his bride for the first time of the day!

Proud grandmothers

Suzanne looking gorgeous!  

Suzanne's father walking her down the aisle.  The cut of her dress was so beautiful.

The reception was held at The Pavillion at Dunwoody.

One of the yummiest looking cheese plates I've ever seen!

Shrimp and Grits - another beautiful presentation.

Suzanne always wanted the man of her dreams to show up with a big red bow on him - and there he is!

Cutting the cake

Suzanne and Steven gave "perfect blend" coffee as their party favors.

Zoe & Ben

On April 13th Zoe and Ben were married at Callanwolde. I was second shooting with Lamar Gee Photography.

Zoe and Ben had this "logo" created to combine their initials. It was a great way to decorate their special day.


These martini glasses were for the mashed potato bar.

Zoe places the ring on Ben's finger.  The tree you see on the right is one of the four pillars on the chuppa.

Love is in the air...

Courtney & Matt

On April 26th, I got to photograph another bride named Courtney!
I was second shooter to the wonderful EJ & Janet of Blue World Studios. Here are a few of my favorites from the day.

A silly moment!

Courtney doesn't miss a beat - and keeps the party going.

... and they lived happily ever after...

A special thanks to Janet and EJ of Blue World Studios. 

Courtney & Matt were married at St John's Lutheran Church and held their reception at The Magnolia Hall at Piedmont Park. The bride and I were not the only Courtneys there either, Courtney Surber Paz was the wedding planner. Heather at Stylish Stems did the flowers.

Courtney's Bridal Portraits

I look forward to photographing Courtney's wedding in Athens - it's just a little more than two weeks away! Last week I went to her friend's home in The Georgia Club to take some bridal portraits. Here are a few favorites I'd like to share with you.

Environmental Portraits

On Saturday the 12th I took an Environmental Portrait workshop with Andrew Kornylak from The Showcase School.

We went to SCAD's sculpture department and photographed two artists, Danny Paulete and Audrey Ward.

Danny's project is about the war in Iraq and the reality that he feels only those who have been there can truly know.


Audrey is working on a project about love and pain that consists of and "kisses" and "bites" in ceramic.
