Joy and Chris - The Estate at Piedmont

Joy's father finished his toast by saying "Joy and Chris were made for each other". After sharing in the beauty and excitement of their wedding weekend, this was clearly evident. Chris joined the Air Force as a navigator, and through his travels brought him to San Antonio where he met Joy, also there for medical school. Fast-forward to their big day, and love was certainly in the air. Everything was held on-site at The Estate at Piedmont, an artistically-transformed historic home in the heart of Buckhead. What a beautiful location for an amazing wedding. Here's to wishing Joy and Chris a lifetime of happiness!

Laura and Bobby - Cathedral of Christ the King and Summerour Studio

What an amazing summer wedding celebrating Bobby and Laura! After a service and photos at Cathedral of Christ the King, Atlanta GA, everyone transitioned to a completely decked out Summerour Studio to prepare for a night of partying. Laura not only got married on this special day, but also designed some of the beautiful touches that were present throughout the reception decor. A great list of vendors including Amy from A Flawless Event and Alea Moore Photography were fun to work. The Az-IzZ certainly kept the energy level going in the room throughout the evening.

Taylor and Kip - Cathedral of Christ the King and Cherokee Town Club

I met Taylor while shooting her family member's wedding a few years ago, so it was great to get a chance to visit with her family again for her recent wedding. Taylor married Kip at the Cathedral of Christ the King in Atlanta. They followed the ceremony with a grand reception at the Cherokee Town Club. From the monogrammed flower arrangements for each bridesmaid to the Coca-Cola toast in memory of her father, details were certainly everywhere! It was great to work with Susan Pando and team once again as well as meet David from David Murray Photography. Congrats to this warm, fun couple - Mr. and Mrs. Richmond!

Kristen and Matt - Our Lady of the Assumption & Atlanta Athletic Club

Kristen and Matt met for the first time while Matt was golfing at the Atlanta Athletic Club. How fitting then that they celebrate their marriage reception on the same grounds years later. After a beautiful ceremony at OLA in Atlanta, the couple strolled along the club paths and even included some unique photos with a Porsche parked out front (a nod to Kristen's job). The night came alive with the always awesome Rupert's Orchestra before the grand send-off to sparklers in the front drive. Kristen and Matt are truly an amazing, fun and kind couple to be around. A big congrats to you both!

Allison and Drew - Lake Lanier Islands

What a blast to work with Allison and Drew on their beautiful wedding day at Lake Lanier Islands! This pair is so creative, fun and just great to be around. Allison is very artistic with her background in dance; Drew with his background in graphic design. Amazing details were everywhere - the custom made wedding programs, thumb-print guest book, robot cake toppers and so much more. But the most unique and touching part of their wedding day was the ceremony officiated by Allison's uncle. Time was taken to honor family history, the background of each member of their wedding party, Allison and Drew's story of meeting one another and music written by a friend that brought out the fun spirit of the day.

Later in the evening, A-Town A-List broke it down for a constantly full dance floor with a special guest appearance - Allison's dad serenaded the couple with Greenday's 'Time of Your Life'. Working alongside some great professionals - Daniel Stancil Photography and Bridget Baker's An Elegant Occasion, this was surely a night to remember!

Julie and Larkin - Ashton Gardens

Team Awesome. This is how Julie and Larkin approach their relationship, marriage and life as a whole. Having known Julie for a number of years, I was very excited when she asked me to assist in documenting their wedding day and the start of a new chapter in their lives together. Both Julie and Larkin are incredibly kind, down-to-earth and fun to hang out with. This was exactly the feel of their January wedding a few weeks ago. After preparations and photos at the Payne-Corley House, the couple proceeded to get hitched and party at Ashton Gardens a few miles away. What a beautiful wedding to start out the new year.

Bailey and Henley - St. Philips Cathedral and Piedmont Driving Club

Bailey and Henley tied the knot at the beautiful Cathedral of St. Philip in Atlanta.  As is sometimes the case in May, weather was a little wet but that did not stop the couple from getting some great shots under the covered walkway outside. The party was held at the Piedmont Driving Club where Bailey and Henley danced the night away with friends and family all sporting custom sunglasses for the occasion.

Kavitha and Prashanth - Ritz Carlton Buckhead

Kavitha and Prashanth were married at the Ritz Carlton Buckhead. What a beautiful day! We started with preparations and the Baraat at 7am which led into their ceremony in the amazing main ballroom. Shooting once again with the talented Aharon Hill, we were treated to not one but two photo sessions - one in the traditional ceremonial dress and another in the afternoon with evening attire. One of the main highlights of the evening was a series of heartfelt toasts, concluded by Prashanth himself. Definitely one of the most touching Groom's speeches I have heard. But enough reading - go ahead and check out their trailer above!

Brooke and Spencer - King Plow Wedding

Brooke and Spencer celebrated their marriage at King Plow Arts Center. They are both very in tune to art and detail which reflected in every aspect of their ceremony and reception. From the bicycle themed name cards to the fingerprint tree ‘signed’ by each of their guests, there were details to capture at every corner. Brooke was interested in using the look of 16mm film throughout the wedding film. While shot on DSLR, we were able to add this look selectively through the use of special filters modeled after this retro look. Enjoy their highlights film above and congrats again to Brooke and Spencer!
