Cummings in love :: Augusta Wedding - Part 1

My first wedding of the year was this March in Augusta GA/SC. 

I think it is vital that I got the opportunity to know the bride and groom in our engagement session that previous fall. The colors of the wedding were a salmon coral and turquoise. Such a fun color combination. The roses matched perfectly.

The groom helping his big brother get ready.

They loved their sunglasses. The groom looking too cool for school. . .

. . .and his megawatt smile.

This was my favorite groomsmen shot. I love the fun they are having together.

A few more detail shots as the bride got ready for the day.

 I love the elegance of her dress and the way the beading gave it such a subtle beauty.

Her mother was such a cute character. She was so happy for her daughter and proudly gave her away to a man she is confident will love and cherish her firstborn daughter the way she should be.

You may now kiss the bride. :D

Part two coming to the blog soon!!

Autumn and Ryan :: in love :: Atlanta Engagement

This was a somewhat unique photo session. No, not in the way it was shot since that was done in my usual way of doing everything in my power to capture the love between two people. 

No, this was different in the way I processed the pictures after the shoot. I had a special request from the soon-to-be bride and groom to give the pictures a little extra funky touch. . .so I obliged their wishes and took each section of our time together and processed it in a way that I felt added to the feel of the shoot. I hope you like it as much as the couple did.

We started out at this really cool "beer bar" in Little Five Points 

where they have spent a good bit of their time while dating. 

 I was in love with the decor.

 This is a favorite of mine.

 We walked down Little Five Points and got a few shots on our way to one of their other regular spots. . .

Right in front of the Variety Playhouse you can see on the left that we had a little interest in our photo project.

 This was a fun background to shoot against.

 Left is Spencer's point of view and right is my point of view.

We had to get some fun shots against the graffiti walls. Some of Ryan's favorites.

Next stop was Joe's. Awesome little coffee shop where I got an amazing peach icee drink of some sort that tasted just like drinking a real peach.

 This is definitely one of my favorite ring shots. . .

 . . . which is a close race with this one. I love playing with focusing on the ring that binds. ;)

After that we headed over to the park where Ryan proposed to Autumn which was also the place where they finally met after running in the same circle of friends for so long.

 We caught the last few rays of sun while we were there giving such lovely glow to the images.

 Seriously, a FAVORITE!!!! Her eyes are amazing.

 Heeheee, cuteness personified.

Our last stop was this awesome little bookshop, the Atlanta Book Exchange located at 591 N Highland Avenue Northeast; Atlanta, GA 30307-1438 

Autumn found the perfect book for her to peruse.

 I would definitely say that we had some fun while here.
