Wedding: Rachel+Anthony

Last Saturday we shot the wedding of Rachel Bell and Anthony O'Bannon. I had to write a special post for this special couple, because after spending an entire day with them, I love them almost as much as they love each other.
Though the day was crazy (as weddings always are) I was surprised by how well Rachel handled everything. She was a vision of grace, and though some mishaps occurred (all of which were out of her and our control), they were great to work with.

I have never met such genuine, sincerely nice people. Rachel is hilarious and charmingly self-deprecating. Not to mention she has a contagious smile! And Anthony is great is well. Though he was nervous, he hid it very well

I was also very impressed with the coordinators at the venue, the Atlanta Botanical Gardens. They did their best to fulfill the wishes of the couple, and went the extra mile whenever possible.

Here's a few finished pictures from the wedding:

Thanks for reading

Catch us again soon

Engagement: Rachel and Anthony

So we went to Centennial Olympic Park again this week to do an engagement session for Rachel and Anthony.

Rachel and Anthony are truly one of the most fun couples we have met. They joke around so much and it really is great to see in a couple. I also have to add that I have take a lot of photographs over the years but these two were the easiest to work with. I mean I didn't have to give any direction because they were so in love and it shows in the pictures.

Rachel also has one of the most beautiful smiles to will ever be able to see, she is also so funny, and Anthony is really a genuinely nice guy. Their personalities were really captured in their engagement shoot.

I really appreciate Rachel and Anthony choosing us to capture their most important moments.













Thank you

Portrait: Payne Family

On October 13th, 2007, I had the pleasure of photographing three of Porter Payne's wonderful children in Centennial Olympic Park next to their grandfather's statue (Porter "Billy" Payne). This portrait session was a blast.

I can't say I have had this much fun on a portrait session before. Not only were these kids easy to work with, but each had a very distinct personality.

Presley Payne, who is 6.5 years young, was such a delight. She wasn't camera shy at all and always managed to find her way in front of the camera lens.

Two-and-a-half year old Cassidy Payne also has a great personality. She was very fond of her older sister, or her "big sissy," who she followed around quite a bit. Porter informed me Cassidy is a great problem solver for her age and he expects her to be a CEO of a Fortune 500 Company, and Presley a sweet cheerleader. They showed each of their personalities, and the camera captured them very well.

Billy Payne, who is one year old, was also a great camera subject. He really made me feel as though I wasn't even there, particularly since his main focus was playing with the batteries from my flash.

Each of the kids was so great to work with, and so darn adorable. I look forward to more portrait sessions with them in the near future.
