well, we’re back from NYC ready to put our (poor, tired) feet up and get to editing! i’m so excited about the images we’re downloading and it’s going to be a good day when we finally finish and share a few on this blog! but i’m getting ahead of myself, shocking, eh? first up, timothy & jessica’s lovely rain-free wedding day! you may remember these two for their infamous eshoot, at night, in the rain, on north campus in athens. we knew that night when we met them that they were something special! any couple that can pull off a smile after an hour of shooting in the pouring rain deserves a rain-less wedding day, right!? well, i think so!
jessica & timothy have known each other for a LONG time and it shows through the ease with which they interact. everything from quick phone calls to giggling together while we were shooting seemed to come naturally to them. when we met their friends and families on their wedding day we started to understand where they get it! everyone was excited to see everyone else and the laughter came quickly as they all got to know each other better.
the day, for me, started in a salon downtown where jessica was calmly, quietly…and sleepily sipping a cup of coffee while her hair was being curled. excitement had kept her from sleeping soundly and she started her morning not stressed about it at all, but instead just slowly welcoming the day!

while jessica was putting on the finishing touches to her ensemble the guys were playing a little frisbee on the lawn of the church- typical guys!

they did settle down long enough to get into their tuxes and cover timothy in prayer before the ceremony- such a sweet guy moment:


jessica & timothy built in plenty of time for us to shoot portraits in the beautiful sunshine! the four of us were all so happy it was clear and beautiful out that all of our smiles came naturally! we are so happy with their portraits, they’re such a sweet couple!

oh yea, i took a little break to find a dark, damp corner for their ring shot- for some reason i was feeling a moss image. love how this one came out, so lush!

this next set of images makes me smile- it’s essentially the same moment captured by two different sets of eyes. THIS is why i love working with my husband!

jessica & timothy, congratulations! thank you so so much for counting on us to capture your wedding day; we are so blessed to have clients like you! i hope your honeymoon was amazing and that you’re enjoying athens and the start of football season enough for me and matt too! :)
Thanks for capturing the best moments in one of the best days of my life. I am so lucky to have the wife that I have, and lucky to have you two taking snapshots of the moments we never want to forget!
I was introduced to your blog when Jessica and Timothy had their engagement pics taken, and I’ve been addicted to your site and anxiously awaiting their wedding shots since then. These are absolutely wonderful!
I swoon over your pictures every single time you post! I cant WAIT to see ours! :-) sorry Jayci was sort of a pill towards the end . . . I hope we got some good ones anyways!
Great job! Your photos are awesome!!!
you know i favor the ring shot and this wedding was no exception. BUT, even though i was predisposed for it, and even though it was an EXCELLENT, UNIQUE shot, my favorite is the one taken from the bottom of the steps with the sky and clouds in the background. As good as it was, the clincher was the wind blowing the veil out behind her. great timing!
Wow guys, well done again. My favorites have to be the bridal two shot series with the coordinated background, the colors mesh perfectly. I also really love the cloud shot. Excellent. Hope you guys are well.
Rocked it! nicely captured…and that exit shot is killer.
These are all just gorgeous but that’s the best shoe shot ever, with both of them! Love it! And the last photo is so stunning.. just amazing light!
You two are such awesome photographers, I love all of your posts! What lens do you use to get those ring shots??
thanks guys, jesicaa and timothy know how to work it! ;)
*jessica p – kate was using our old 35mm f2. its a great lens, and you can get in REALLY close (i think the min. focusing distance is 6 inches)
Love, Love!!! Totally Amazing!
