Paul and Rebecca Engagement

There aren’t a whole lot of things that spell out why we love living in the city more than a cool and clear summer night skyline. And when you’ve got a gorgeous couple owning a swoon-worthy love story, you’re pretty much living a Nicholas Sparks novel. Or, in our case, shooting it. Rebecca and Paul...

A House Divided Makes Love Unrequited

When we met Dana and Tyler for the first time, we didn’t even have to ask them if they were excited about tying the knot. Aside from being one of the cutest couples we’ve had the pleasure to shoot, they’ve got the personalities to match. With a fun-spirited collegiate competition between the two of them...

The Timeline

Scheduling out the day-of is an art. There’s hair and makeup, getting dressed, coffee (or champagne) touching up and, of course, socializing. And we’ll make sure to capture all of it. But, it’s also super important to make sure there is enough time for bridal portraits, family portraits and all of the fun and silly...

The Assembly of Excellence

There may be a few “i’s” in The Decisive Moment, technically. But, if you’ve ever read about us, met us or heard how we work, you know that what comes with this brand, this reputation and this product is nothing short of a small, powerful army of hands, minds and camera work. In short, our...

The Color of Love

When we were asked to shoot the nuptials of NYC-based bride and groom, Swapna and Mark, there was no way we could have known what a beautiful spectacle the celebration would be. We knew it would be at The Intercontinental, here in Buckhead, and that legendary Planner, Nancy Fields was in charge. So, what we...

Married at Montaluce

We we met Rebecca and Quinton, they didn’t have a lot of specifics to tell us about the way they wanted their wedding day shot. They only said one thing – that this was a day that was all about them. They were going to revel in it. To the traditionalist, the surprising element was...

Tea Time at The Ritz!

We love traditions. Love them. Especially when said tradition takes place on the gorgeous multi-acre lake and scenic rolling hills of The Ritz Carlton on Lake Oconee. Just minutes outside the city, this place is the ideal wedding destination location. Guests are stocked on outdoor activities during the wedding weekend. From golf and boating for...

Hit the Lights

One of my favorite things about flipping through our photographers’ works is how cool they can make every single shot look, despite the conditions. Often, wedding receptions take place at night, or indoors, where there is either no light at all, or no natural light to be found. A conservative shooter would say that creates...

A Fun Couple says “I Do” at Historic Agnes Scott College

One of the most interesting parts of being a wedding photographer is meeting so many different kinds of people. Not only do we get to witness traditions from all over the world right here in Atlanta, but the people saying the vows and their eclectic group of friends and family always have ties to cool...
