2008: A Year In Review

As the year draws to a close, I just wanted to again thank all of my wonderful clients for allowing me to document their special day. I am extremely blessed to have the opportunity to do what I do and I do not take any of it for granted.

As I prepare for the upcoming new year, I wanted to assemble some highlights of the year. Of course I couldn't possibly include every image from every wedding. But instead, I simply created a collage of some of my favorite images.
Believe me, deciding which pics was not easy! As always, comments are welcome.

Happy New Year!!!

End Of The Wedding Season...

As my wedding season ended last month, I'm busy with post production and album design. Even though Christmas is days away, I'm still working. In the coming few months I plan on creating some new demo albums, updating my website, planning a birthday getaway and other things still on my To Do List.

Here's a peek at a few pages from an album I'm currently working on for a client whose wedding I shot in Connecticut this past August.

One of my favorite things to shoot is the details of a wedding. Here's a few faves from a wedding I shot over Thanksgiving weekend.

This morning 10am sharp, I was on location shooting Blair & Jonathan's engagement session.
We had a great time & I was especially happy that it wasn't too cold.

Blair & Jonathan are getting married in May 2009 at Four Seasons Hotel in midtown Atlanta. I'll be posting a slideshow of the session, hopefully later this week, or early next. Be sure to check back for updates.

This is one of my favorites.

Love The Shoes...

One of many things that I look forward to when I shoot a wedding is the shoes!
This past Saturday, as bridesmaids were wrapping up getting dressed, I caught this shot, as one bridesmaid helped another with her shoes.

Cereatha + Fred

Cereatha and Fred are truly a wonderful couple. Cereatha is the owner of CTO Bridals, one of Atlanta's premiere wedding and event consulting companies.

The scene was set at The Country Club Of The South in Alpharetta, GA for an outdoor ceremony. The weather was perfect.

Thanks Cereatha and Fred, for hiring me to be your wedding photographer.

Chaylynne + Anthony - Southington, CT

I got away once again, this time to Connecticut, to shoot the wedding of Chaylynne and Anthony.
The ceremony was held at the lavish Aqua Turf Club. This was my first trip to Connecticut & I was looking forward to a change in scenery.

What was most interesting, was the wind mill on the property. The grounds were absolutely beautiful. Great weather, great food and a great couple. I couldn't have asked for more.

Michelle White was my second shooter and she did a great job!

Sheree + Chris - Charleston, SC

I got away for a weekend and had the pleasure of photographing the wedding of Sheree Sidney and Chris Mosely in Charleston, SC. Sheree and Chris are a wonderful couple and were a joy to work with. It was so sweet when Sheree told me that she was so excited that I was her photographer.

Thanks Sheree and Chris for choosing me to be your wedding photographer!

Nicole + Bobby

A couple of weeks ago I had the pleasure of shooting Nicole & Bobby's engagement session.
Their wedding will be next month at the Fernbank Museum in Atlanta.

We had a good time during the session. I really enjoy shooting engagement sessions, as it allows me to get to know my clients prior to their wedding day. Here are a few of my faves.

Mary & Hashim - July 18, 2008

When I met Mary and Hashim they told me that things weren't working out with their original photographer. It was my pleasure to step up to the plate.

One of Atlanta's premiere wedding and event facilities, Villa Christina was the scene for the wedding. It was a wonderful evening ceremony and things went off without a hitch. Mary and Hashim were a pleasure to work with and made my job easy.

Mary and Hashim, thank you for allowing me to document your special day. Here's a few of my own favorite images.
