Shireen and Marc

Posted by Lori | Wedding | Tuesday 13 July 2010 1:38 pm

Our day started off in a small hotel room crammed full of beautiful, vibrant women getting hair and makeup done! Laughter and occasional remarks about the outrageous television show on in the background floated through the air. Shireen seemed calm, which always helps everyone stay in a great mood! Here are a few photos from the beautification stage!

Sharon and Jeroskee

Posted by Lori | Wedding | Tuesday 13 July 2010 10:16 am

Sharon and Jeroskee’s big day took place on May 29th, and yes I know I am very behind on blogging! It began with Sharon’s hair and makeup, and with the use of a little window light I love the way they turned out! She was a bit nervous about the day, but I think her bridesmaids really helped by being absolutely hilarious! ( I always enjoy a fun bridal party!) Here are a few of my favorites from the getting ready process!

Brent and Hannah’s Wedding

Posted by Lori | Wedding | Monday 26 April 2010 9:35 pm

I am about to get a bit blog happy! Brent and Hannah’s wedding was amazing! The rain outside was a little daunting, but it didn’t seem to damper anyone’s fabulous time! Hannah was absolutely GORGEOUS, I am so jealous of her complexion! Brent was quite the charmer himself, and I could see clearly how much he woo’d Hannah every time they were together! Everything went smoothly, from the hair and makeup to the bubbly exit! I could not have asked for an easier and more relaxing wedding to photograph! I love love love the images I captured from the day! Take a look!

Michelle and Thomas Wedding

Posted by Lori | Wedding | Monday 4 January 2010 9:37 pm

Michelle and Thomas’ wedding took place at First Presbyterian Church in Barnesville, the most adorable church I had ever seen! It was definitely a chilly day, but the cold did not stop us from having a great time! Not only was Michelle gorgeous, but all of her accessories were as well! I was especially excited about her veil and secretly wished that I had worn one like it!

I’m pretty sure he was making fun of Thomas for ironing his shirt! Haha! Looks like my husband and the guys had a good time!

Since time is not on our side in the winter months, they decided to do a “First Look” and Michelle presented Thomas’ wedding band to him with a special inscription!

Andrea and Joe’s Wedding

Posted by Lori | Wedding | Sunday 22 November 2009 9:40 pm

Last weekend I finally got to photograph Andrea and Joe’s wedding! I had been looking forward to this for a while, ever since meeting them at the engagement session! We started off at Patrick’s of Atlanta Salon and Spa, where Andrea got to unwind and be pampered! Let me tell you, she desperately needed it!

I experimented with my 1.8 aperture and I love the results! blog6_0.jpg

Andrea looked so beautiful, and are her flowers not gorgeous?!

This is Joe getting his style on. He was so relaxed…how I envy this trait in men on their wedding day.

For their wedding, Andrea and Joe chose the Reunion Golf Course in Hoschton, GA. Look what a beautiful day it turned out to be! The sky really was that blue!

I can honestly say there was hardly a dry eye as Andrea’s grandmother walked her down the aisle to meet Joe!

If you will notice below, their beautiful dog Lily was the maid of honor!

Rachel and Craig Wedding

Posted by Lori | Wedding | Monday 20 July 2009 10:10 am

This weekend I had the privilege of photographing Rachel and Craig’s special day!  For months I had been anticipating this day and the chance to try my hand at wedding photography again! Everything about this wedding was beautiful, from the punch to the bride herself! We began at Sweetgrass Too, a unique salon situated in the heart of Candler Park.

From there it was on to Cinefest Film Theatre to prepare for the ceremony! Craig had been running around all morning trying to decorate and direct, and finally made it into his suit and took a breather with his guys. In this shot the guys were helping Craig go over his vows.  (I love how the groomsmen in the middle has Craig’s boutonniere in hand and the pin in his mouth!)

The ladies were absolutely stunning!  I really thought the purple flowers with the red ribbon really made the bouquets pop!

The newlyweds!

Craig’s mother and other close relatives helped create this beautiful cake! It truely was delicious and I could tell she was proud to serve it to the guests!
