Rachel and Martin and I met at Emory for their engagement photos on one of those fantastic spring days we’ve had of late.  Rachel is graduating from Emory Medical School in the next month (congrats Rachel!) and will, in fact, be a doctor by the time she and Martin wed at the Payne Corley House in mid-May.  So, the location was particularly special to them.  With Rachel an almost doctor and Martin set to begin his Phd in Physics soon, they were lots of fun to talk to and hang out with.  It was also nice to spend some time on Emory’s beautiful campus.  I’d driven through it, but clearly, as we walked around, I didn’t know it very well.  Not sure what I was doing back in the day when I went to Agnes Scott, but clearly I didn’t spend much time at Emory.  Anyway, enjoy the photographs from our lovely evening of shooting.  They make a great couple and will surely look terrific on their wedding day.  Check back in May (this is starting to sound familiar) for photos from Rachel and Martin’s wedding out in Duluth.

 

Spring has finally sprung in Atlanta and the flowers at Cator Woolford were in full bloom when we shot Meredith and Bert’s engagement photographs this week.  After all the rain and cold of the winter we were all three loving the warm springy day and we had a blast during their shoot.  As the sun set, we got this glorious pink sky that lit up behind them.  We shot until it was so dark my lens would no longer focus!  These guys are getting married in Westpoint, GA on May 22nd and then moving up to Washington DC where Bert has been for the last 18 months.  I’m looking forward to going down for the wedding which is being planned with lots of traditional family elements including a reception on Meredith’s parents’ property where Meredith grew up and where her Mom grew up before her.  But don’t expect photos of a backyard barbecue!  From the sounds of the planning, it’s going to be a beautiful affaire!  You can see photos from that in the weeks that follow the wedding.  Also, check back soon for Meredith’s bridal session.  She’s wearing her mother’s gown, so it should be a real treat!
