elizabeth & david are engaged!

By | Engagement Sessions | 3 Comments

when we met elizabeth and david for coffee to chat about their wedding and photography it easily turned into the longest ‘meeting’ we’ve ever had! we ended up just hanging out talking about life and coffee and film and food- it was awesome. elizabeth and david are an incredible couple- highly artistic and obviously in love. they are also prone to silliness which they warned us about but we thought that was such a good thing! as we explored the outskirts of the virginia highlands we were all in high spirits- the weather was perfect and elizabeth and david were totally cracking each other (and us!) up. we were surprised to realize that we left not feeling tired but refreshed; what an amazing effect these two have on people! now that i’ve told you how awesome they are on the inside check out their smokin’ images!

this next one is matt’s fave, the light is just so shocking!

and these next two are my fave. elizabeth and david- you guys make modeling look easy!

andrea & nathan are married!

By | Weddings | 7 Comments

when we first met andrea and nathan it was on a rainy saturday in augusta. we traipsed up and down the riverwalk shooting beneath umbrellas and making the most of what the day had to offer. we were shooting their engagement session and nothing was going to get in the way of them enjoying being together. their outlook on life in general is just that. unstoppable. we saw them again at jessica and mark’s wedding and realized that they are also unstoppable on the dance floor- we couldn’t wait until their wedding!

andrea and nathan were married on a beautifully sunny, breezy saturday in downtown augusta. matt and i had a great time seeing them again and being part of the celebration- and what a celebration it was! people were all around us dancing and laughing and enjoying life- andrea & nathan style. the whole day was laid back, full of huge grins and laughter. no doubt the rest of their lives will be marked by those characteristics as well.

i love how the back-light let’s you see all of the amazing detail in andrea’s gown, it was stunning!

the beautiful bride! (sidenote: i’m very jealous of her amazing hair!)

and the handsome groom:

more dress details, lovely:

love the drama of this next shot:

during the ceremony andrea stole a look back at her bridesmaids, it was such a sweet moment:

kinda different for us, but we were really excited by the lighting:

andrea & nathan’s first dance was so classic; they are both really beautiful dancers:

chillin on the dance floor. this little guy kept lying down every time his dad would try to hold his hands and dance with him, it was hysterical!

nathan and his dad gettin’ down!

andrea & nathan, it was great to see you guys again! we are so glad you decided to include us in your day- everything was just perfect! i hope that your new life is going well; we look forward to keeping in touch!

marissa & davey are engaged!

marissa & davey are photographers. they are not used to being in front of the lens, only behind it. they are used to directing shoots not taking direction but when they got engaged they were ready to put all that aside and let someone else take care of everything. they knew that on their wedding day they were going to have lots going on and they didn’t need to be worried about the photography- i was not yet a wedding photographer when matt and i were married and finding a photographer was still a huge struggle; i cannot imagine being in their shoes!

i know davey through a few mutual friends from high school- he was ‘the photographer,’ always snapping away and honing his skills. i knew he had his own business so when he called a few months ago asking if we were available may 30th i excitedly checked the calendar assuming he was already booked and had a bride he wanted to pass along to us. when i told him we were available i was surprised to hear it was for his wedding! woah! another wedding photographer trusting us to capture his wedding!? how exciting…and how nerve-wracking…

anyway, when we met up with them for their engagement session in downtown greenville all of my nerves were swept away. they were totally relaxed, completely trusting and they rocked all of our suggestions! they were even up for sitting in the stairwell of an old parking deck for a few shots. gross! but awesome. check them out!

falls park has so many beautiful unique spots to shoot; we hope to photograph there again!

we love it when couples take the initiative to make their engagement pictures unique by choosing a location that means something to them or by bringing their puppy or their bikes or in this case, their cameras!

aaaand the parking deck shots begin:
