beth & lawton have been together the entire time i’ve known them which, i guess, is coming up on 5 years now! they are an awesome couple, passionate about one another and also about the rest of the world. they’ve served their peers side by side since the day i met them and i’ve yet to run across another couple so selfless. when we met up with them to shoot we knew they would create unique images full of life, love and, we guessed, lots of laughter as well! bottom line, they blew us away. we shot for waaaay longer than we usually do, exploring every inch of piedmont park and utilizing every little bit of beauty we found in the landscape. and we had nothing to worry about because everywhere we stopped beth & lawton infused their contagiously fun personalities into the images! we laughed with them and did our best to create images that highlighted their deep friendship and love; we are so grateful they chose us to capture this time in their lives!
first up, a little goofing off just as we started! beth and lawton are one of those rockin couples you’ve heard about who play together; they’re both very athletic and i know their future will be full of friendly competition!
i love how beth didn’t even hesitate when matt mentioned this next shot; really, she seems to be totally happy anywhere as long as lawton is there to laugh with her!
right on the edge of the park was this old metal building and we spent lots of time there enjoying it as a backdrop!
but we can’t resist the lush greens of the park! we jumped back over when the sun got lower:
there are so many reasons we left this shoot smiling and one of them was this next set of images. after discovering lawton didn’t think he could pull off the cartwheel she suggested, beth proceeded to show him how! the resulting images make me smile:
with a couple as ready for fun and games as beth & lawton there was NO skipping the bright colors of the playground!
we finished up with a few shots with the skyline. classic atlanta!
beth & lawton, we are so happy to be working with you guys! your shoot was such a blast, we know the wedding will be even more awesome and we’re excited we’ll be there front and center (crouched, haha) watching it all happen! you guys rock!
So fun! I love it when you guys shoot couples that I know — you always capture them so well! Congrats, Beth and Lawton!!!
Such a fun shoot! My favourite is the one in the narrow alley with the water on the ground, but I love the cartwheel ones too. In my last year of high school I told my friends that I would turn cartwheels across the lawn the day we came out of our final exam ever. I did, and have a photo to prove it!
we love them guys! thanks so much for everything! :) cartwheels are definitely one of my faves!
Congrats to Beth and Lawton! :-) yay!! And, as usual, you two did an amazing job capturing their relationship – I love these!
Some of my favorite peeps rockin it Altmix style. Lovin it.
this totally captures both of them! so happy for them! and as ALWAYS, uber impressed with the altmix work! untouchable in my book :)
I just wanted to tell you guys that I think you’re awesome! I’ve been following your blog for a while now and always love your images =) I get a lot of inspiration from looking at other photographers’ work and you guys are definitely in that category. God Bless!
I love it love it love it! Totally captures their personalities to a tee! :) These are awesome pictures!
