brandi & thomas are engaged!

there are so many reasons we are excited to be working with brandi & thomas- starting with: they are beyond awesome. i met brandi at UGA when she moved in with some of my friends into the apartment just below ours. every day when i’d walk out to class, brandi would grin ear to ear and say hello in the sweetest southern drawl you’ve ever heard! you can’t help but smile around her- her optimism is contagious and her faith is inspiring. thomas is about the luckiest guys alive to be spending the rest of his life with such a bright light!

we met them for coffee to chat about their wedding and we were excited to find that our styles are very similar- they are getting married at one of our favorite venues, king plow, and they wanted a similar feel for their engagement pics. we decided on a park with some ruins in athens but when that option was removed last minute by construction, brandi & thomas trusted us with our alternative location- i am so glad they did! we were happy to be in athens, happy to be shooting with the warm sun and most of all happy because we were working with brandi & thomas. they made the shoot so comfortable and natural and i’ve been on the edge of my seat, excited, to get these images up to share since the second we left athens! seriously, one of my favorite shoots ever:

brandi & thomas, cannot even wait for your wedding! you guys are perfect together- watching you interact while we were shooting was such a blessing- no doubt you have a beautiful future! :)
