Erica & Tim

Erica & Tim were married this past Saturday at the Atrium in Norcross. Erica was so funny to spend the day with because she was a little emotional but absolutely did not want to cry so she would tell everyone that was surrounding her to make her mad every time she was on the verge of tears (or to be mean to her which was impossible to do because she looked so beautiful!). Erica & I also took some bridal portraits on Thursday afternoon so I decided to post a few of those pictures first, followed by the wedding day pictures. The reception was a perfect reception for them, surrounded by so much love from their family and friends. Enjoy!



















So, I realize that all of the reception pictures are dancing pictures but Erica was really quite the dancing machine so I thought it would just be appropriate!

Kristi & Cole

Sunday I headed to Lawrenceville for Kristi & Cole's wedding. This is the second wedding I have done with this group of girls who are just so much fun! Kristi was just such a happy bride who was just such a joy to watch with her family and her new husband.

The thing I love most about my job is capturing such special moments like the one of Kristi and her mom below as they are about to start getting ready:




The happy bride getting into her dress:



Kristi chose black dresses with pink shoes for her bridesmaids. Her bridesmaids assured me that this was "very Kristi" and I thought it was a super cute idea!

Isn't she just stunning?




The couple didn't want to see each other before the ceremony but they did have a moment together without seeing each other:






One of my favorite moments during a wedding ceremony is the exit for the bride and groom. It is the moment where they get to look around and see all of their family and friends - the people they care about most in the world - all in one place. I love the expressions here on the faces of Kristi & Cole!

The lighting was perfect for some pictures of the bride & groom!







The first dance as husband and wife:





I truly enjoyed being a part of your day Kristi & Cole and I wish you all of the happiness in the world together!
