ashley & david are engaged!

By | Engagement Sessions | 2 Comments

i start this post with just a little sadness. engagement session inundation ends here; we’re going miss the great one.on.one time we get to spend with our clients. we’ve learned a lot these last few months doing these shoots but most importantly we’ve decided that letting people be who they are as a couple yields awesome pictures. we love encouraging our couples to suggest a location that means something to them (like the first date spot or the proposal location), bring a fun prop (like an adorable puppy or guitar), and even plan an activity to do while we shoot (like a picnic!). we’ve had an excellent season of creative and fun couples and we couldn’t ask for a better kick off to wedding season!

today i’m really excited to share a few pics from ashley and david’s engagement session on wednesday. they took us to one of their favorite spots outside of atlanta, the ruins of an old paper mill that sherman burned on his march through atlanta. when we got down to the ruins and saw them overrun with ivy (and ants! but we tried to ignore that;)) and perched just beside a river we knew immediately why they love this place. it’s secluded and natural and beautiful, perfect for a couple in love, and perfect for a shoot! ashley and david laughed and kissed and hugged the entire session, it was so cute just to watch them enjoying one another. i love my job. here are a few of our favorite shots:

thanks you guys for a wonderful shoot, you picked a great location and it couldn’t have been more fun! we’re really looking forward to the wedding!

and i’m off!

we’re excited to announce hollee and john’s slideshow is here!

i don’t say this to scare you or start rumors, but i have serious cravings sometimes. it’s been a lifelong struggle, that’s how i know it’s not…well…you know…a little surprise?! anyway, when i was younger i decided that my body craved what i was deficient in, back then that meant butter noodles, peanut butter mixed with chocolate brownie (warmed up, of course!), and tiny dill pickles (a true kate staple). these days the urges have transitioned into anything with caesar dressing or olives, cheese (cave aged gouda, yes please!), and, still holding strong, pickles. i no longer can convince myself that my body just needs these things for my well-being, so i focus on adding them in little pieces to basically every meal i make. you’d be surprised at the versatility of the green olive in this house! all that to say, right now we’re out of pickles so i’m sorry this post isn’t about something important or witty or even informative, but i have to go to the grocery store…like…now.  buhbye!

woah, daily candy?!

we are so thrilled to be featured in daily candy atlanta’s spring wedding guide!  matt and i were so stoked when they called us yesterday to confirm the details, but i think i was still in disbelief until i got my usual daily candy email and saw our name!  

so thank you to you, to all of you who have been cheering for our photo venture, to all of you lovely brides who have fallen for our work, and to you loyal readers who leave sweet and encouraging comments!  we wouldn’t be here without you; we wouldn’t even want to be here without you (you make this so fun!)!  thank you all from the bottom of our hearts, we cannot wait to show you more of who we are, and we’re so excited to get to know you all better too!  

today we’re off to shoot our last engagement session before taking a (quick) deep breath and diving deep into weddings for the next few months; i am so glad we are all sharing in this journey together!  love!
