The Modern Bride bio picture

My New Blog

Who am I?

Ten years ago I was scooped up into the world of accounting and am very grateful for it. This field has prepared me to follow my dream of being a photographer. There is much more to running a photography business, then showing up and taking photos (although this is my favorite part). I understand the stresses of keeping within the budget, but still receiving quality work.  

When shooting an event I am constantly aware of my surroundings and always looking for another picture. I love to incorporate an artistic approach to my photos, maybe just changing up the angle slightly to create a totally different look. I have been known to lie on the ground, stand in chairs, crawl...whatever it takes to complete my vision. I am a huge fan of candid’s. These are the moments when true emotions show and it is amazing when you look back over the photos, how people can recall the exact thoughts that were going through their minds at that time. 

I live the events through my lens, capturing the face of the groom who has just seen his bride for the first time, the grandmother who has tears rolling down her face from the joy she feels watching her grandchild take his/her vows, and the flower girl who plops down in the middle of the ceremony and takes off her shoes.  

I truly believe in the institution of marriage and often get swept away be the moments of watching others make this commitment. I may tear up during vows or laugh out loud when cake is smashed...I will be there to capture these times and create a keepsake for the bride and groom. 

A Wedding to Remember!

As a wedding photographer in Atlanta, GA I am always amazed to see the array of places available to hold the events! Melissa and Andy’s wedding proved to be another moment of AWE for me! They were married at Central Presbyterian Church and held their reception at the Trolley Barn (www.thetrolleybarn.com) Right down the street. Melissa and Andy were so awesome to go along with my plan to photograph them outside of the church even though it was freezing cold! Poor Melissa was shivering, but I couldn’t pass up photographing such a beautiful bride in such a beautiful scene!

Weddings for the Modern Bride

Modern brides are taking a step away from the long-time traditional elements and poses, and are adding unique details to make their big day fabulous! I love capturing these details and stepping out of the box to make sure each wedding day is uniquely documented through my photographs.

Change is Coming!
