Kara & Brian Wedding | Georgia Railroad Freight Depot | Atlanta Wedding Photographers

May 9, 2012 | showcase, Weddings | 10 Comments

Kara & Brian got married at the historic Georgia Railroad Freight Depot. This place was built in 1869 so you can imagine how much character this venue has. One of the many reasons i love shooting weddings. I mean how often do you get to shoot at a place that’s more than 140 years old? I had so much fun at this wedding. The Frat guys and Sorors represented. Kara & Brian’s entrance dance was one to remember. So many great memories. Thanks you guys for allowing me to be a part of your big day! Congrats once again. Check out some pics from the day. Enjoy 🙂

Cassandra + Shelton Wedding | Inman Park UMC & The Trolley Barn | Atlanta Wedding Photographers

February 2, 2012 | showcase, Weddings | 10 Comments

Cassandra & Shelton tied the knot in January. I’ve actually never shot a wedding in January before. This was a really good one to start the year with. The wedding had a 19th century vintage and historic feel to it. Maybe it was because the church they got married at was established in 1898 (Inman Park United Methodist Church)? or it could be because the reception was held at The Trolley Barn (service and housing facility for Atlanta’s first electric street railway line) which opened in 1889? Either way i bought into it and i felt like i time traveled..lol. To reflect the character of the wedding i included a lot of Black and white/Sepia pictures which gives you a sense of the vintage time period. Shelton is a big time Fraternity guy and Cassandra is a Sorority gal so you can image what they got into. At the end of the day this was a really fun, emotional and entertaining wedding. Congrats to Cassandra and Shelton! I wish you both a blessed and happy married life. Check out some pics from the day.

Felicia & Isaac Vintage Wedding | Historic Hazlehurst House | Atlanta Wedding Photographer

July 11, 2011 | showcase, Weddings | 17 Comments

The story of Felicia and Isaac is yet another story of how love happens in the most unconventional way. When i heard this story i was truly amazed and definitely had to share with you.

Once upon a time, Isaac’s brother worked with Felicia. He told her he had a brother and would like to hook them up. Felicia responded “No, I am not interested.” After trying to convince her a few times with no luck he gave up. One day Felicia went to 1 of the 1 million Wal-Marts and the same day Isaac went to 1 of the 1 million Wal-Marts. They both were at the same Wal-Mart and checking out of the store at the same time. Both of them had never met each other before and not even aware Isaac’s brother tried to make this union happen previously. For some reason out of nowhere Isaac just felt like he had to approach Felicia and he did. He asked for her phone number and her response again was “No, i am not interested.” Rather than walk away Isaac said to her “come on, It’s not like i am trying to marry you”. Felicia thought about it and figured that’s a good point. She proceeded to give him her number and the rest is history!

Felicia & Isaac tied the knot in a “vintage” inspired way . The wedding took place at the historic Hazlehurst House which was built in 1829. Felicia made her grand entrance into the ceremony in a retro black Cadillac. Felicia’s family is from Guyana so there was a cultural touch in the wedding as well. Overall, it was not only beautiful but an emotional and super fun wedding. Now i know folks from Guyana party hard..lol. Check out some pictures from the day. Enjoy!
