kelsey & tyler are married!

June 8, 2012 – 10:17 am

easy payday loans and secure !

kelsey & tyler are two of the most fun and loving and funloving people we’ve ever had the pleasure of capturing. they have such a good time together and the minute you meet them you realize that they are best friends. they have traveled all over the world and have shared some truly amazing experiences. now they can add their wedding day to that list- because it was a seriously awesome celebration! their friends and family were all so encouraging and excited for them- it really felt like every second held it’s own beautiful, personal little moment which is why this post contains waaaay more pictures than usual. sorry! i just couldn’t say no to even one of these images- also, you should watch their slideshow- because we wanted to put all of those on the blog too… ;)

everyone got ready in lovely rooms in the renaissance hotel overlooking the biltmore- where the wedding and reception would take place- what a sweet detail!

kelsey’s little brother walked in to see her while she was getting ready- they shared such a sweet moment- it’s clear these two are close:

meanwhile, tyler was busy finalizing his vows:

kelsey’s dad met her downstairs before she went up to meet tyler- they embraced and talked each other out of crying. ;)

remember that view from kelsey’s hotel room? here it is again! matt has had this shot in his mind for quite a while and kelsey & tyler were the perfect couple for it! a pretty epic image resulted- i love it:

while the guests enjoyed cocktail hour, the ceremony site was flipped and magically became a beautiful reception! this is one of my favorite room shots in the history of altmix photography, inc.:

the bridesmaids surprised kelsey with a song they had written especially for her and tyler:

these images make me laugh- stretching before beginning their first dance:

nitya & neal are married!

October 12, 2011 – 7:53 am

i’ve been talking non-stop about this wedding for two weeks. really- ask anyone! related to that: this is about to be the longest blog post of the century. i hope you’ll stick with us through to the very end, where you’ll find my favorite photograph- actually, i may have a couple favorite photographs, you see where this is going?? anyway, grab your morning coffee, let’s do this!

matt & i first got to know nitya & neal on a chilly january evening, across a candle-lit table full of cheesecake. [aside: i wish that happened more.] right away matt & i felt such a connection with them- they’re both so engaging and easy to talk to that quickly we felt like we were sitting with old friends. together, nitya & neal are playful and fun with an underlying connection so deep and permanent there is no doubt they are meant to be together. capturing their incredible wedding day was such a joy for us. we learned about so many fascinating traditions- some momentous and serious, some funny and lighthearted. but what really struck us about nitya & neal’s wedding day was the intentionality of it all. every moment was spent drinking in the beauty of the day and every detail told a story. nitya & neal very clearly considered their guests in every element of the wedding planning, thinking of their comfort and happiness every step of the way. for example, with the ever-changing atlanta weather, their wedding day ended up being much warmer than anyone had expected! last minute, nitya & neal called in king of pops and westside creamery to serve up refreshing treats before everyone took a little break to rest and/or change clothes before the reception. so thoughtful! i could go on but i have about 230498 images i want to share with you:

nitya & neal’s wedding was held at the stunning, summerour studio:

i love these next images with nitya & neal and her dad- the expressions are my fave:

nitya and her dad took a quiet moment together to check out the ceremony space before any of the guests arrived, so sweet:

meanwhile, neal was getting ready to make his official entrance to the wedding called the baraat. the celebration was huge and everyone was cheering for and dancing with neal- what an awesome way to start your wedding!

neal’s family and friends met up with nitya’s family and friends just before the ceremony and everyone entered together:

the parents had so much fun together:

while the guests enjoyed delicious ice cream and snacks, nitya & neal headed back to the hotel to change for a few portraits and then their reception!

what a STUNNING dress! in case you forgot about their engagement pictures, nitya can always be counted on for her excellent taste! also, that is the excellent jennifer lackey helping nitya into her gown- she did such a great job keeping the day running perfectly!

i love neal’s expression when he saw his new wife in her reception dress for the first time! i think these two are prefect for one another, don’t you?

such a beautiful reception awaited them when they returned to summerour! nitya worked with bold american event design and production on the design and everyone was so thrilled with the result [including me!]; such a welcoming environment!

while the bridal party did wait to be introduced, they did not wait to start celebrating nitya & neal!

nitya & neal mentioned to us that they’d like to sneak away for just a few short minutes for portraits around summerour and we are SO glad! i just love how romantic and soft these images are. the first picture is my favorite and was actually supposed to be a bridal portrait- but after taking some stunning shots of nitya we quietly noticed neal’s classic stance and included him in a few. the perils of being awesome all the time, right neal? ;)

nitys & neal, we feel so blessed to have been a part of your wedding day. everything was so beautiful and inspiring- especially you two! best wishes!

sarah & wilson are engaged!

September 29, 2011 – 10:32 am

when sarah & wilson mentioned having their engagement photos taken on wilson’s family’s property in north georgia we were excited. for us, it meant a trip out of our busy city and into the land of spacious farms, quiet ponds and sweet air- refreshment! we didn’t know quite what to expect but as we neared the property and turned onto a wooded, gravel road, we began to get excited about all of the possibilities. we’re used to shooting in atlanta and making the most of 8 square feet of grass between two buildings so walking through this property, green as far as we could see, felt so luxurious! we really enjoyed our afternoon with sarah & wilson- getting to know them as a couple and finding that we share a love of all things athens and all things outdoors (although we aren’t nearly as hardcore and in shape, they’re awesome!). our shoot ended with a beautiful sunset and we drove back toward the city lights with dust clinging to our shoes and a renewed thankfulness that we have such wonderful clients. :)

this next location was my favorite of the whole shoot! the trees are so huge and so dense that they let in only small beams of light, like little spotlights! i just loved the drama of it:

as the sun sank lower, the sun warmed to a gold and filtered through the green leaves, electrifying the color. it was as if sarah knew the exact shade to expect when she chose her outfit!

LOVE this next image! i think it perfectly portrays how peaceful and relaxing this whole shoot was as well as how comfortable and in love these two are:
