Dawn and Rick’s Engagement Session at UGA in Athens

Posted in Engagement, Portraits on April 13th, 2011 by Courtney – 2 Comments

Dawn and Rick met in Athens, at NONA – New Orleans ‘N Athens. They love to spend time riding on their motorcycles, so we thought that would be fun for some of the engagement photos. Then we walked around North Campus and got some more photos.  Rick was a student at UGA, and shared lots of fun memories with us!

This sun dial is in the Founder’s Garden on UGA’s campus.  It’s got such a sweet quote, “Grow Old Along with Me The Best is Yet To Be.”  Take a look at Dawn’s beautiful, unique engagement ring!  It’s a yellow sapphire surrounded by diamonds.

I’m looking forward to the wedding this weekend!

Keri Beth and Jonathan’s Engagement Session at The State Botanical Gardens in Athens

Posted in Engagement, Portraits on March 22nd, 2011 by Courtney – 1 Comment

Keri Beth and Jonathan are getting married this summer at Watkinsville First Baptist Church, with their reception at The Georgian in downtown Athens. Keri Beth and Jonathan, like many couples I work with, met online.  They are actually getting married on their second anniversary of their first date! They wanted an outdoorsy, country setting for their engagement session, so we started at The State Botanical Garden of Georgia then headed down Milledge Rd.  Below are some of my favorite photos of the day.

Caroline and Stephen’s Engagement Session in Piedmont Park in Atlanta

Posted in Engagement, Portraits on March 17th, 2011 by Courtney – Be the first to comment

Caroline and Stephen are getting married in September and wanted a spring engagement session. Our original date was rained out, but we couldn’t have asked for a better “rain date.” It was gorgeous last weekend! It turns out that like me, Stephen was a “lifer” at Lovett – so we had lots to talk about. (Being a lifer at Lovett means that we attended from Kindergarten through Senior Year!) Stephen was actually working at Lovett when Caroline’s neighbors (also her friends and bridesmaids) introduced the two of them. Five happy years later, Stephen proposed to Caroline by carving “Marry Me” into a Jack O’ Lantern.  How fun!

Margaret and David’s Engagement Session in Stone Mountain Park

Posted in Engagement, Portraits on January 16th, 2011 by Courtney – Be the first to comment

I photographed Margaret and David’s engagement session in Stone Mountain Park in late December.  We were all so surprised at how beautiful the day was!  Just one day before it was gray and cold and no good at all.  As you can see the sun came out and made the session fabulous.  Margaret and David spent some of their first dates at Stone Mountain Park, so they knew exactly where they wanted to have their photos taken.  They were very easy to photograph — so natural in front of the camera and hardly needing any direction from me! Here are a few of my favorites from the day.

Laura and Wes’ Engagement Session at The Botanical Garden in Athens

Laura and Wes were such fun to work with!  We met at The State Botanical Garden of Georgia on a beautiful fall day, and had such fun walking all over the gardens taking photos.  Here are a few of my favorites.

I was telling Laura and Wes that I love to use this arch in photos, and that some of the couples I photograph are tall enough to lean on each side while holding hands.  Wes took that as a challenge and said, I bet you’ve never take photos of a couple hanging off the arch!  I hadn’t, but as you can see – now I have.

This is a traditional pose, but I just love it anyway!

And we had to make sure to get some photos with the vibrant glowing fall leaves!

We did run downtown and get some photos with the UGA arch.  Here’s my favorite.

Rebecca and Rob and I went to The Atlanta Botanical Gardens for their Engagement Session and we couldn’t have asked for better weather.  We had a great time walking around and exploring the gardens and taking photos.  Rebecca and Rob were lots of fun, joking around with each other and me, and very cute in front of the camera!  Here are some of my favorites from their session.  I’m looking forward to the wedding this summer at the Ritz Buckhead!Atlanta Engagement Photography Botanical Gardens Courtney GoldmanAtlanta Engagement Photography Botanical Gardens Courtney GoldmanAtlanta Engagement Photography Botanical Gardens Courtney GoldmanAtlanta Engagement Photography Botanical Gardens Courtney GoldmanAtlanta Engagement Photography Botanical Gardens Courtney GoldmanAtlanta Engagement Photography Botanical Gardens Courtney GoldmanAtlanta Engagement Photography Botanical Gardens Courtney Goldman
