the night before…

first of all we’re excited to welcome sally and andrew’s recent wedding to our gallery page, enjoy!

as you probably know, matt and i love getting to know our couples prior to their wedding day.  engagement sessions are our primary way of connecting before the day, but after friday night we’re totally excited to attend more rehearsal dinners!  it’s a great time for the families to get used to us and promptly forget we’re there, perfect for great candids!  friday night we had the privilege of photographing rachel and zach’s rehearsal dinner at the clubhouse. their families were hysterical and super fun; the room was overflowing with emotion and love.  it really is a lifesaver that i was holding a camera in front of my face, because how embarrassing is it that i kept tearing up during toasts to a couple i only met last month?!  at the end of the evening after everyone was out of (joyful) tears, matt and i headed home so excited for the wedding the next day!  here are a few of our favorite pictures from the dinner, stay tuned for wedding images soon!

the beautiful bride rachel talking with her mom:

the flowers were beautiful but i couldn’t resist including some family in the shot:

matt and i both cracked up when we were looking over images and found this one:

a little more of the decor:

the groom, handsome as ever despite a little sunburn from golfing earlier that day:

this shot is pretty typical of the night, lots of fun and love:

rachel’s best friend jennifer gave a really sweet toast to the couple (note: this was one of my teary moments as well):

sisters and best friends:

thanks rachel and zach for having us, we really enjoyed getting to know you guys!

some good news!

we are happy to welcome ashley and david’s slideshow to our gallery page! check them out!

as you may already know, matt is a designer for a small ad agency here in atlanta. he really loves the people there and i’m pretty sure they love him – at least he keeps them entertained ;) !

all that to say, matt has officially bid farewell to full-time at his agency. it was not an easy decision, but now that it has been made we are stoked! we’re so blessed that photography demands so much of our time; it’ll be exciting to finally lavish our little biz with the attention we think it deserves. i’m most excited that we’ll be able to accept more shoots during the week and matt’s totally pumped about maintaining our quick turn-around time for our clients. overall, this is a scary (individual health insurance? eek!) move but a move that we’re trusting will help us better satisfy you, which is totally our ultimate goal.

anyway, so that’s what’s new here in the altmix home! before you started reading i forgot to warn you of the semi-serious, semi-businesslike nature of this post and i’m sorry. i guess that is one of the perils of reading my online journal! ;) so let’s spice things up a little with a recent love of mine. this dress is entirely too short for me, not too flattering of a shade for my tones, and carries a hefty price tag. but i’m in love. someone else please buy this, pleeease?!

sally & andrew are married!

sally and andrew walked down the aisle exactly six years after their first date! it was a much anticipated day full of excitement, love and a few nerves. sally and i had been in pretty much constant contact since their engagement shoot and it was really awesome to watch the number of exclamation points rise steadily with each email she sent. when matt and i arrived in augusta on saturday i really do think that we were almost as excited for them as they were! their love is so evident; they planned every aspect of wedding together and saturday morning they took a break from finalizing details to share a big pancake breakfast at ihop. see, aren’t they just so lovable?! here are a few of our favorite shots from their day:






























thank you guys so much for allowing us to be a part of such a wonderful day! we look forward to keeping in touch, best wishes!!
