This is three blog posts in one… Heather Vreeland (follow on twitter) has been busy over on the Occasions Magazine website with a few posts about our recent cover photoshoot at the beautiful new 200 Peachtree for the next issue of Occasions Magazine.
A couple weeks ago she posted a quick behind the scene’s post followed by a preview of the covers she selected for the next issue of the magazine. Here they are…
I can’t wait to show off the images we published as well as many more from the shoot and from behind the scenes over the next few weeks.
Today she posted a sneak peak from my friends Danny and David over at Optimum Productions, a quick behind the scenes video teaser… I can’t wait to see the entire behind the scene’s video!

One thing that’s quite nice about wedding photographers in Atlanta is that contrary to what you might think, many of the established photographers are actually quite good friends. We get together to play poker, we refer business to each other and we even help each other out shooting weddings when we’re available. A few weekends ago was one of those times. I was happy to join Jason Spruill, a.k.a. Weddings by Jason, for a beautiful wedding in Big Canoe, GA.
Becky and Todd chose the perfect weekend to get married in Big Canoe. The dogwood trees were simply AMAZING… a week earlier and the trees would be mostly covered in buds and a week later the colors would be totally different. Here’s just a few of the images I captured for Jason on that day…
In case you’re wondering about this cake topper, it has a very special meaning for the couple. They were both on the same little league baseball team as children and they have the team photos to prove it. This was only one of the 5 cakes they had and while in the past I may have wondered why in the world anyone would want a baseball themed cake topper, I now know. And more than that, I absolutely loved it because I know the profound love they share and the depth that comes from knowing someone for as long as they have known each other…

Last month Steve Bales and the Bold American staff hosted an intimate holiday evening for a few industry professionals at Steve’s home and he was kind enough to ask me to come shoot details for the event. The evening unfolded in stages as different rooms were prepared in secret… to be revealed when the time was right. It was fun to have the rooms to myself as the others arrived for the evening — I could hear them chattering as I snapped away, unbeknownst to them.
Here are a few of the details…
A little glimpse into the preparations before the guests arrived…

One of the advantages of being a photographer is that the imagery that you create tends to be the hub around which much of the media in this business revolves — every other vendor is in constant need of new and fresh imagery to show their portfolio of work in the absolute best light. Unless they are out there with a point and shoot, they naturally turn to us, the photographers, and our body of work for the imagery they need. Venues are no different.
My good friend and amazing commercial and wedding photographer David Christensen happened to be busy and was kind enough to refer Grace Manor to me. Grace Manor is a beautiful new property managed by Lease Luxury Properties and they were looking for some imagery to kick off their media campaign.
So this is what you get when you combine a beautiful setting, a dress from the incomparable Anne Barge, gorgeous light and a stunning model…
This is the image they are using for the ad in The Atlantan Brides magazine. You can view the ad on page 21 of the online digital edition.
I included this last one because she has such a bubbly personality and fantastic smile that I wanted you to see it.
