Believe it or not, Sklyar and Nicolette’s union is the first same sex wedding I’ve photographed. I’m a big supporter of gay rights and marriage equality, so I hope it’s the first of many to come. I couldn’t be more happy that they picked me to document this special day.

Their ceremony was at the lovely St John’s Lutheran Church and their reception was at Paris on Ponce’s Le Maison Rouge space. The event space at Paris on Ponce is beautiful, but very difficult to shoot in because of the dark ceilings, dim light and their restrictions on strobe lights. But, I think Jonathan Phillips and I still got some great shots. Here are some of my favorites.

An adorable shot from the photo booth!

Becca and Tommy are an adorably geeky couple. They both volunteer for Anime Weekend Atlanta, and love video games. I was so excited to see that Becca decided to get married in her glasses, since I’m also a proud wearer of spectacles. They got hitched at the Historic Courthouse in Lawrenceville, and here are some of my favorite shots from their big day.

I want to give a special shout out to Jonathan Phillips for helping me photography this wedding. He not only did some great shooting, but drove back to his house at the last minute to replace a piece of missing equipment!

Lawrenceville’s Historic Courthouse has some beautiful places to photograph details.

I’m so glad I got to know Bobbin and Ryan during their engagement shoot AND got to spend their big day with them! They are adorable, fun and love all of the fun stuff Atlanta has to offer. Thanks to these these two hip folks, I now have a new favorite Atlanta band, Noot d’ Noot. They performed a great set for Bobbin and Ryan’s reception.

This was my first wedding at the Highland Ballroom. The management there has done a good job making it a little more photo friendly inside, with some lighter colors and a better layout for events. The space for outdoor photos is a little limited, but we still got some great shots.

This is one of my favorite shots by my second shooter, Jonathan Phillips.

Amy and Tim are puppeteers, actors and an all-around super-fun duo. They also picked one of my favorite wedding venues, The Solarium in Decatur. Which, happens to be the spot where my hubby and I got hitched four years ago. As soon as I walked in and saw their AMAZING geeky themed centerpieces, I thought to myself, “This is going to be an awesome wedding to shoot!” and it was. I’m having a hard time narrowing down to my favorite hand full of images, so forgive this very long blog post with too many exclamation points!

I love wedding with adorable details.

Beautiful fall colors.

Best cake toppers ever!
