Wedding Proposal in Downtown Atlanta

Atlanta Wedding Photography
Recently I was invited to photograph a very special occasion. This person was going to propose to his girlfriend at the same place they went on their first date. They went on their first date at Centennial Olympic Park and they went ice skating. He wanted me to capture this moment and not let her know since it was a surprise. I did some research on the lightning and I was up to the challenge!
The big night came and I get an assistant to help me because I did not wan to miss the big moment! It was easy to take photos of them skating since there were so many people skating. He wanted to propose to her at the Olympic Rings Fountain. So when they made their move there I put my assistant in to position and I grabbed a passing couple and asked them to be part of my cover and they agreed. I then moved my cover in to position and shot over their shoulder at the couple. What happened next was magic. He pulled out the ring and even got down on one knee!
I cant say what a honor it was to photograph the big moment! She was none the wiser and they were just thinking about Atlanta Wedding Venues. I have included the video for everyone to see.

Downtown Atlanta Wedding Photography

2011-08-12T05:33:00.000-07:00

I recently had a unique opportunity to have a model that had access to a wedding dress. I was not going to let that pass me by. So I set up a shoot in downtown Atlanta, Georgia. More specifically the Atlantic Station area. I felt this area show cases AtlantaThere is a bridge, lake, and this really cool architectural arch. I as luck enough to find some parking right near the bridge. So we started there.
While shooting at the bridge we got some wonderful photos. We took advantage of the
Atlanta skyline and the lights in the background. It made a great back drop to some
wonderful poses. Like I said before Irene was a pro. We got some head shots with the
arch in the background. But my favorite shot on the bridge was some of Irene sitting on
the bridge with the skyline in the back ground.
We then moved toward the columns below the arch. There we got some great back
lighted photos with the help of katherine the photographer’s assistant.
I want to say give a big shout out to the model Irene who was awesome to work with
she was a real pro who delivered! I also want to give a big thanks to Katherine the
make up artist who doubled as a photographer’s assistant. These two women were
awesome working late into the night and in the heat of a Atlanta which can be a lot to
ask of anyone. Thank you thank you and thank you!

What I love about being a Atlanta Wedding Photographer

2011-08-11T06:04:00.000-07:00

What I love about wedding photography. First let me give you some background on me. I start doing photography over 20 years ago with film. Matter of fact I still shoot some large format HABS HAER photography for the park service on film. While I love black and white photography with film. I love enjoy the convenience of shooting digital. While I like architecture I love shooting people!

I love shooting people! I am a people person. That is the main reason love wedding photography. I enjoy the range of emotions that come come to wedding. The joy of everyone getting together and witnessing the joining of two people in love. There
is something so very special about that. I am always trying to capture that special moment that two people look at each other and are giddy that they are married! That little moment when the parents look at their kids and are so happy for them. That
moment when the grand parents look on and see another generation has begun. How
can some one not love that!

The other thing I love about weddings is the challenge. You really have to have your
energy level on high. You have to be aware of what is happening around you and what
is going to happen. I have to constantly have to anticipate what is going to happen
next. Where to be to capture the expression on someone's face or to be where the
action is. I am always looking for the little details of wedding that makes it unique to the
couple may it be a candle for a loved one or the bride wearing cowboy boots. That is
one the many reasons I so enjoy wedding photography.

I do believe I was born to be a wedding photographer. I see so many blogs from other
wedding photographers and they are always complaining about this or that. I on the
other hand fell so blessed to be able to shot weddings in Atlanta, Georgia one of the
greatest places in the world for weddings!!!!!!!

Great Wedding Proposals

2011-05-23T04:38:00.001-07:00

I love a great wedding proposal! I think a lot of you have seen these wedding proposals but I wanted to share them with some of the people who haven’t. The first one is the one of the guy who made a movie and ran it as a preview at the movie theater his girlfriend was at. It is just so cute you gotta see this one!
The next one is from Saint Simon’s Island, Georgia. It is just a sweet little video of how and where a person proposes makes it special for years to come!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nUZKnWYO25c
This one took some work. There is a little bit of magic in that box!
The next one I think is the one that caught her totally off guard. Not just another day at the beach!

Take Advantages of all the Scenic Places in and Around Atlanta

2011-04-19T18:53:00.000-07:00

There are so many ways to do your wedding. I recently shot a wedding where the Church was beautiful inside but lacked any locations to shot outside and the reception was in a restaurant with the same problem. So the bride and I got to together and looked at google maps for a locations in the vicinity of both venues.
We decided at a park with a covered bridge.
It was a great decision that we were so thankful for. You can see the other hightlights of the wedding, reception and fun shots at http://atlantaartisticweddings.com/atlanta%20wedding%20photographer/4-2-11%20wedding.html.
The bride was so great to work with! As you can see she was comfortable in your dress and location.When everyone is relaxed then everyone can have some fun!!!

Great Bridal Show Outside Atlanta, Georgia

2011-04-13T04:50:00.000-07:00

This Sunday I was lucky enough to participate in a bridal show at the Braselton Stover House in Braselton, Georgia. Mary Stover organizes these events for brides so they can see different vendors for their wedding. I would suggest to all brides that they should take advantage of these events. It is a low pressure environment to get some great ideas! You learn so much from taking advantage of Mary's many years of experience and insight.
While there I came across a great cake decorator. His name is Mark Brickman. He had a couple of great examples of his wedding cakes. I have seen many wedding cakes and his craft and talent have set him apart as one of the best in Atlanta! As good as these cake look they test even better! They are a great center piece to your wedding. His website is located at www.bakersmanic.com. You should go by his site and check out his creative creations. He not only does wedding cakes he does some very original groom cakes.
Also there was Jane Elkenberry from Cornbread and Caviar. She is a great caterer who brings you great food within your budget. She is also the caterer for the Fox Theater. She is a gracious person who wants the best for your wedding. You can call her at 404-273-4939 and she will be happy to help you.

Last but not least was Pulse Dj Services was there. DJ Chris Meeks was there spinning some great tunes for the brides. He brings the tunes to your event and keeps the party going! You can visit his site at http://www.pulsedjservices.com/

I have recently done a great wedding on the east side of town called Gaither's Plantation ,located at 270 Davis Ford Road in Covington . The property is owned by the county and is said to be haunted! Their parents rented a historic mansion where they decorated so wonderfully. They really made it a family affair and such a personable occasion. The occasion was near Halloween so they decorated it with a Halloween them. The place was decorated with these warm Autumn colors. There were also little teeth and little kick kacks for the kids which made it fun for everyone. I even grabbed some of the Halloween teeth and got the bridesmaids and bride to put them on and made scary faces!!

What fun! When it is time for your wedding make it your own and have fun!

Child Portraits and the joy they give everyone

2010-12-11T03:06:00.000-08:00

Recently I was given the honor of making a portrait of a good friend of mines family and specifically their daughter. They are so sweet. The dad is a dear friend of mine who I give a hard time constantly at work because of begrudgingly attitude that he tries to project. I really enjoyed see all that melt away and see the real him as he interacts with his family. The way he melts when his little girl smiles at him. Also how he learns that 1 year old little girls have their own time line and that we can not rush them or change their minds with a wave our hand.
Doing this photo shoot reminded me one the thing that got me into photography and historical documentation in the first place. It is a sort of time capsule of a people's lives. I feel so honored to be part of it. I know that the mother and father will look back at it and fondly reminisce on how tiny their little girls hands were or how they spent so much time picking out a little outfit that fitted her for only 3 months. The child will years from now will complain how fat their cheeks where or how the outfit looks so dated. In about 50 years the child will look back and point at the photograph and say "I was a cute baby!" and their kids and grand kids will look into the photograph for glimpses of their selves such as mom's nose or dads eyes.
This is a honor that I do not take lightly. I feel so blessed to be part of each families documentary and portraits that will be part of the time line of generations to come. Thank you, thank you, thank you to all!

Indian Wedding in Atlanta, Georgia

2010-11-29T16:11:00.000-08:00

As a Atlanta Wedding Photographer it is a honor to photograph so many different weddings. This month I got to photograph Oma's and Terry's Wedding Party in Atlanta. I we had so much fun! Since they had already gotten married in New York City they wanted to have a party here for their friends in Georgia. The party was in Atlanta.
The coolest thing we did was do a sort of engagement shoot / wedding portrait. Since they were both Indian I suggested the Hindu Temple in Lilburn as the back drop. It worked beautifully!!!! I could not ask for more. We started shooting late in the afternoon and they were gracious enough to stick around till the sun went down and we got some amazing photos. You can see the slide show at http://atlantaartisticwedding.com/atlanta%20wedding%20photographer/oma%20and%20terry.htm. Thank you Oma and Terry! and Thank you for visiting!

2010-10-21T04:00:00.000-07:00

When is it a good time of year to get married? It is up to you but you shouldn't fell obligated to get married in June like everyone else and battle over booked photographers and venues in Atlanta. There are other options for you. I my self got married New Years eve because I knew my family would be in town and I wanted to share my wedding with them. October is a great time also. It is a cooler than the summer months in Georgia. It is not too cold either. When everyone is wearing suits it is a perfect month! In closing just don't limit your options.

Great wedding dances

2010-10-13T04:41:00.000-07:00

Hello everyone! I always enjoy the first dance. It has become so much more than the conservative slow dance of ages past. It has now become such a fun and entertaining part of the day! I have made links to some of the weddings that I have enjoyed. Here is the Clay family and their jig! There is also the whole wedding party dance that Virgina and Brian did, what a hoot! Now their is some serious choreography involved in Max and Sarah's first dance.

Thanks for the reviews on Google!

2010-10-06T04:14:00.000-07:00

I want to say thank you to all the brides that have left me at Google Local .

I am so local that brides have been so kind to me. I want to share one of the reviews from one of my most recent brides Emanulla.

That's exactly what we think of David...Afterall, what is a wedding without great pictures? My mum tells me all the time to smile and look good cos you cannot go back and take the picture again... David took care of that - even he couldn't have imagined what a blessing it was to have him as our wedding photographer. Imagine meeting your photographer on the morning of your wedding! We had just come out of a nightmare with the wedding photographer we had earlier contracted and was introduced to David by the wonderful owners of the Braselton-Stover house to try and salvage the situation and when David showed up for work that evening on September 10, 2010 - I had a smile on my face that just won't quit throughout the day. He was fun, humble, tireless, great with our many demanding families and friends and did everything so effortlessly that I thought in my heart and still do that God sent him to take care of the day. He even got my husband smiling all the way... the pictures are simply gorgeous!!! Thanks Dave! I believe you haven't seen the last of Emmanuella & Ronald Jones!

Thank you to all!!!

At your Atlanta wedding look around and take your time

2010-08-13T05:37:00.001-07:00

As a professional wedding photographer I see a lot of weddings. When I talk to the brides after wards they all say the day just happened so quickly! I can say when there are so many things going on constantly and it happened so fast it is important to take a little time and look around. When you are looking just take a breath and appreciate the moment. I guarantee that you will see people that love you, have helped you in the past and will support you in the future. That is the point of the wedding sharing your commitment to your spouse with the people that are the most important to you.

Historic Color Photography

2010-07-30T04:06:00.000-07:00

I know I usually blog about wedding photography in Atlanta. Today I am going to blog about something else I am interested in and that is history. During the day I work for a historical and archaeological consulting firm. I have been doing this for about 20 years. I have always had this interest in historical photography. I my self still use large format photograph to document such things as NASA and historical properties in the southeast united states.

When recently one of my friends in the archaeology field posted this on their facebook page I had to share it! Just go to http://blogs.denverpost.com/captured/2010/07/26/captured-america-in-color-from-1939-1943/ and you will see some of the coolest historical photographs ever! I have not seen so many color historical photographs in one place. Color photography really tells the story. In the photographs you can tell what they are eating, where they live and what the general condition of their housing is. I have shared one of the photos from the collection on my blog but take your time and visit it yourself and enjoy!

Great Wedding with Baseball Theme!

2010-07-28T05:15:00.000-07:00

As a professional wedding photographer in Atlanta I get all kinds of questions. From where should we do engagement sessions or what ideas do you have for favors at the wedding? In all those cases I would say let them express yourself and you will the happiest with them.

This weekend I photographed a wedding and the groom was a baseball player from Georgia Southern. So the them was baseball. They were such a great and giving couple. What they did with their baseball theme was put out cracker jacks and peanuts. It was inexpensive, original, a lot of fun and expressed how they meet. The favors where very well received and I saw people admiring them and munching all night long.

So remember to express yourself it is your wedding!

Beautiful Locations for Photography in Atlanta

2010-07-27T04:17:00.000-07:00

I recently shot a engagement shot at Piedmont Park in downtown Atlanta. When I am working at a shot I am always looking at how to give some variety to my shots. That way it breaks up the shot and the couple get some different shots. It also keeps the couple fresh. When working at the park I got their early to beat the Atlanta heat. When we got there then we had the large open spaces to ourselves. That way we could use these spaces and have the Atlanta skyline in the background. We also had a small pone to work with for a splash of color. On top of that we also had some great architectural elements for a resource. We had the historic bridge, columns, gazebos and walkways to add to our photos.

For taking photos in Atlanta Piedmont Park is a great resource!

How to look good in Wedding Photos

2010-07-20T03:59:00.000-07:00

Hey everyone I hope that everyone had a great weekend. I recently came across this article. I am always looking for ways to take the best photos. After reading this article it really hit home with some very simple tips on how to look better in photos. The best tip I saw that brides and brides maids can do is extend their arms away from their sides so their arms don't look so large. Take a few minutes and look at this very informative article.

What a great year for Atlanta Weddings!

2010-07-13T03:53:00.000-07:00

This year has been great! I want to say thank you to all the bride and grooms that have made it so. I have been honored to work for so many this year. It has been a truly a blessing to document their wedding day.

During weddings I have been witness to so many special moments. Like being invited to pray with bridal party before they walk down the isle. The special moment when a daughter is walking down the isle with their father. It is always great to see families come together and support one another!

Sometimes people tell me I say thank you too much and I say you can never be thankful enough. So thank you again to all the people that have let me document their wedding!

Fall wedding ideas

2010-07-06T03:28:00.000-07:00

Well guys I hope that you have enjoyed your holidays this weekend. I wanted to share with you a article that I found for "fall weddings ideas" located at http://www.ehow.com/list_5814663_theme-ideas-october-weddings.html. I thought I would post this since this week I have had 3 requests for wedding photography in Atlanta during the month of October this week.
I have done several weddings in October. I personally think that the weather around Atlanta in October is perfect for weddings. It is not too hot and not too cold. The only thing you have to worry about is daylight savings time when you do plan your photography.

I do hope this helps! If you have any questions I want to help you in any way that I can to make sure you have the perfect wedding.

Great place for engagement photos Piedmont Park Atlanta

2010-07-02T04:35:00.000-07:00

I just recently shot a engagement session at Piedmont Park in downtown Atlanta you can see photos of the session at http://atlantaartisticweddings.com/proof/june%2012%202010/. The couple were great! We had so many wonderful places to shoot. There is the historic bridge, flowers in bloom, gazebo, water and the Atlanta skyline for a backdrop! The one thing I would say is to get there early if you are going to shoot in the summer because it does get crowded and it does get hot!

How to Save Money on your Wedding Photographer

2010-06-24T05:09:00.000-07:00

Hi,
There are a lot of photographers out there. Most want to sale you a album or make you buy prints from them. I always tell my brides that my passion is photography not album sales. I give you a DVD of the edited high res photos from your wedding along with a photographer's release. That way you can print them yourself and save money! Also you can email them and share them on the Internet any way you please. But I also make 2 websites for you the first is a highlights website where you can see few highlights from your wedding day (http://atlantaartisticweddings.com/proof/may%2030%202010/). The second website is where I will design a album for you (but you have no obligation to buy) and others can order photos at no cost to you (another way to save money!!). The place I use in Pictage and they do a great job. If you have any questions please contact me and I will be happy to help in any way that I can.

Atlanta Weddings - It is hot this summer!

2010-06-23T04:48:00.001-07:00

I love weddings and I love the south! There are certain things that you need to do take care of yourself such as drink plenty of water when you are outside during the summer months. During a wedding everyone dresses up and for guys that means wearing a coat and tie in the middle of summer. Even though you want to look cool you really need to hydrate yourself. Take care of your self!!!

Praying at a wedding

Check out the latest wedding at http://atlantaartisticweddings.com/atlanta%20wedding%20photographer/june%204%202010/ . What a great wedding. I felt so honored to be invited by the family to photograph some of the most intimate parts of their wedding. While I get invited to a lot of places during a wedding. While I was shooting some detail shots of the wedding cake while giving the bride a some personal space. One of the bridesmaids came to me and said that they were getting ready to pray and the bride said that she wanted me there. It moved me in so many ways. One I thought it was so thoughtful and supportive of her friends to spend that special time to have together. It was the perfect way to start this family's wedding.

Looking forward to great Atlanta weddings in 2010!

2010-01-12T04:27:00.000-08:00

Well let's face it 2009 was not the best year for everyone. I don't know anyone who was not effected by the economy. Weddings were smaller and brides had to make some tough decessions on their weddings. They often had to make the guest list smaller to save money and other things like that to save money.

I am positive this year will be better! As far as weddings go this Atlanta wedding photographer has booked twice as many weddings as last year at this time. I want to thank all the brides, grooms and families that have spread the word that www.AtlantaArtisticWeddings.com is a great vendor for your photography needs. I am looking forward to serving the Atlanta community and trying to make the best wedding photos ever!

New Nexus one Google Phone for a Photographer

2010-01-06T04:12:00.000-08:00

I am a wedding photographer in Atlanta and yes I am a google geek! I love google and all the gadgets that they have. I was the first one to sign up with the old G1 phone. If you are a gmail person and organize all your emails, appointments, calenders, maps and calender on google then this is the phone for you I just checked it out at http://www.google.com/phone. It is a more slick version than the G1 and more like the iphone for good or bad. I don't know what I would do with out my G1 it is my computer that I take with me.

Weddings out side of Atlanta, Georgia

2010-01-05T04:12:00.001-08:00

Had another great wedding out side of Atlanta. You can see the wedding at http://atlantaartisticweddings.com/atlanta %20wedding%20photographer/december%2019%202009/. I would recommend to everyone who is looking for a inexpensive place to have your wedding is to look outside the perimeter. The further you get outside of the city the less expensive your wedding venue is. There are many venues such as the Braselton Stover House and others that are such great deals compared to some of the venues in town.

If you would like to see some of the venues or a list of wedding vendors visit my site at www.atlantaweddingphotographer.info and I have a list of vendors that I would recommend. As always if you are looking for a wedding photographer go to www.atlantaartisticweddings.com.

Thank you to all the Atlanta Brides!

The word of mouth means everything. I can not tell you how important it is. I grew up in a small town and I know how your reputation is everything. I work very hard to please each and every bride and groom. One bad review can ruin your business. If you don't realize this you are very short sited. I enjoy being a professional wedding photographer and I want to be your source for a Atlanta wedding photographer. I also want to make each wedding better than before!

I want to say thank you for all the Atlanta Brides and Grooms! There positive reviews and word of mouth have made 2009 one of the best years ever!

This is the season for Atlanta Engagements

2009-12-28T04:02:00.000-08:00

Well it is that time of year when Atlanta family and friends are together and love begins to blossom. As a professional wedding photographer in Atlanta, Georgia I have seen a lot of engagements during the holiday season. There are a lot of reasons for that. One the family is around to share in the joy, young couples want to start out the new year engaged and these are just a couple of reasons.

I recently talked to D Geller and Son for a 20th anniversary ring for my wife. While there the staff was very helpful and helped me with keen insight to diamonds and jewelry. But as we were talking and it came up that I was a wedding photographer we discussed what is out busiest season. And they said that December is by far their busiest season and most of that is engagements.

I myself have noticed the trend that most of my bookings have been in the early part of the year and mater of fact this week I have already had two people wanting the same date in June for a wedding.

So in closing it would be wise to book your wedding photographer and venue as soon as you can so you can make sure you get the date you want. Remember the popular dates in June and April quickly.

Once again thanks so much for stopping by!

Christmas Weddings in Georgia

2009-12-22T04:53:00.000-08:00

Ah Christmas, it is a wonderful time. If you think about it. It is the time you think about being with your closest family and friends. Family travels from near and far come to one central place to celebrate and enjoy each other's company. So why not have your wedding then?

I know there are a lot of weddings in Atlanta at Christmas time. I myself got married on New Years eve because I knew my family would be in town to celebrate and they could easily be at my wedding. As a professional wedding photographer in Atlanta I think it is great to celebrate the New Year, the birth of Christ and new beginnings with the one you love this time of year! So don't let Christmas stop you from having your wedding, let it help you get your family together to celebrate!

2009-12-17T03:53:00.000-08:00

I just want to let everyone know that I have updated my site for help for Atlanta brides and grooms. During the last year I have been very busy updating my site with the vendors that I thought were good. There are a lot of wedding vendors out there so I wanted to share my ideas with you.

As a professional Atlanta Wedding Photographer I have had the opportunity to work with a lot of vendors. Most of them have been great! I like to pass on and share these wedding vendors with all the brides and grooms. I have designed the site at www.atlantaweddingphotographer.info to do that. There under the Atlanta Wedding vendors section you will find a list of musicians, DJs, caterers, venues and flower arrangers. I do hope you find this list valuable.

Christmas time and weddings

2009-12-15T17:01:00.001-08:00

What a wonderful time of the year! Christmas and New Years a time of new beginnings. I always enjoy the Christmas Weddings. Usually at a facility they have the romantic lights up and everyone is in a good mood for Santa!

Being a professional photographer in Atlanta I would suggest booking your wedding in advance that way you are sure to get the date you want. It is a popular time for venues around Georgia and not only to you have to compete with other brides wanting your date you have to also compete against company parties.

View Atlanta Wedding Locations in a larger map

I have also made a map of some the great locations. It is a interactive map showing a photographs from the different locations and venues I have had to honor to work at. I have designed this map to help brides and grooms to find a convenient location wedding location around Atlanta. With this map they can easily look and estimate how long it might take a guest to get from certain church to a favorite venue

Some of my favorite locations are the historical venues. As some of you know I have been a full time photographer for different archeology and historic research firms around Atlanta for close to 20 years. I have learned truly appreciate some of the greatest historical sites in the state. My most recent find is the Brasselton Stover House.

You can see images of the facility at their web site at http://www.braseltonstoverhouse.com. It is located outside of Atlanta in the Braselton Historic District. There you will Mary and Marvin Stover. They are real down home people that will do their best to make your wedding a day to remember. They have recently added a addition to the back of the historic mansion. You can see some photography I shot there at my site www.atlantaartisticweddings.com There are so many interesting places to shot there from the front porch to the side yard with the historical barns. Also the facility has one of the best bridal rooms of any facility I have seen. It is a really under appreciated wedding facility at a great price!

Wedding Detail Shots

2009-12-04T14:07:00.000-08:00

One of my first things I see after I soak in the beautiful dress I look at are what accessories she is wearing. She never just throws something on. There is always a story and forethought in everything she is wearing. I take love just sort of hanging back and taking these detail shots of necklaces, rings or ribbons. The bride loves to share the story of what she is wearing. Then all of a sudden she is letting you in to a very personal part of her life.

The real thing I like about the detail shots is they are sort of a abstract story of the wedding and the couple. At first glance you might see a flower, shoe and garter. But from the brides perspective it is the flower her dad brought her before the wedding. Shoes her mom wore on here wedding day and a garter her friends bought on a girls weekend out.

Don't over look the details they tell the story!

Thanks for coming by!

Don't Panic!!!

2009-11-25T03:32:00.000-08:00

As a professional wedding photographer in Atlanta I have seen many things. From rain, late ministers, and wedding cakes that want to fall over. During all of these things one thing has remained constant. The bride and groom got married and everyone at the wedding was understanding and wanted to help in any way possible.

The good thing about a wedding is you are surrounded by people that love you and want to see you succeed. So don't panic when it rains people understand and know how to get out of the rain and not get wet. Also when you see something such as a leaning cake let some one know and they will be glad to help you!

At Atlanta Artistic Weddings I want to see you enjoy your wedding and I want to help you in any way that I can. You can call me at 404-578-6982 and I will be glad to help!

Meeting new Atlanta Brides

2009-11-24T03:40:00.000-08:00

I love meeting new couples. It just warms my heart to see young love! I really like seeing the excitement they have about their future.

When I meet with the new couple I want to hear about their wedding plans. The other thing I like to know is how they met. This lets me know how I can help them and what kind of detail shots to look for when I am shooting their wedding.

If I shoot their wedding I ask them to introduce me to some one who knows old friends and important family members to me. Because I am a stranger to their wedding and I don't want to miss a important shot! That also helps the couple out so they can enjoy their time with their guests.

The one thing I give everyone even if they don't book with me is a short little check list. This simple little check list. It will help the new couple plan out the details and organize their time. I also suggest they visit the site I made to help Atlanta Brides at www.atlantaweddingphotographer.info. This site has a map of Atlanta wedding venues, list of wedding vendors, musicians and helpful tips for the Atlanta Bride.

As a experienced and professional wedding photographer I want to help in any way that I can. Please feel free to call me on my cell at 404-578-6982 and set up appointment with me. Or if you want you can email me at david@dienerphotography.com and I will send you the check list.

Beautiul wedding photogs - Lighting is everyting!

2009-11-16T03:27:00.000-08:00

The word photography comes from the greek. Photo means light and graph means draw so photography means drawing with light. As a professional photographer in Atlanta I draw with light. When I am shooting a wedding or a bride I am constantly looking for light sources. I am also looking at where the best light is and how to use the light I make with my flash. Such as what can I bounce my light off of and what reflective surfaces are around me. I am love drawing with light every situation is different I have shot a wedding at Chastain Horse park in Atanta and I noticed the large windows in the ballroom. And I have to use this! I got the bride to pose in front of the window and adjusted my exposure to the bride and vola' a wonderful wedding photo.

The New Canon 5d mark II is the best camera ever!!!

2009-11-14T09:06:00.001-08:00

As a Wedding photographer I have to have to be on top of the newest equipment out there. I was seeing the reviews for the new Canon 5d mark 2 as they came out. They just raved about how this is the camera of the future. It can shoot at the ISO's which means you don't always have to use your flash when you are in a low light situation. As a Atlanta bride this means you get more natural photos and you don't have to worry about flashes going off all around you. I have been using the 5d mark II on the last 7 weddings I have done. I have been impressed by the cameras fast focusing speed and at fast response under low light conditions. I have been so happy!! As you can see by the wedding ceremony photo on the left taken with candle light you could not have taken that photo on your old camera. You can tell my clients have been happy by looking at Atlanta bridal reviews of my wedding photography. Sure this is still just a camera and it takes some one to know how to work it. But I want the best equipment so I can take the best wedding photos.

How to pose for wedding photography

2009-11-13T03:53:00.000-08:00

Let me say this first every bride I meet is beautiful and especially on there wedding day!!!! I just try to help them be comfortable in front of the camera. I know everyone of you brides out there have posed in front of the mirror. You should practice that a few times before the wedding to get some ideas of what looks best for you. You can try to pulling your legs and feet to one side to lengthen an narrow your lines. Also play around with hand placement with one on top of the other. Or any other ideas that you have in mind.

The one thing you should always do is loosen up! Have fun!!! and own that dress woman! This is your day have fun with the photos just relax. You can close your eyes between portraits and take a deep breath before opening them to just ease the anxiety. Try to treat the camera as your friend.

When doing the standing poses the correct posture will help your photos greatly. Once again play around int he mirror before hand and find your best side. Also think about how you are going to do your hair that day and how it is going to fall. Also be aware of where the groom will be standing during some the photos.

There are all kinds of body types out there. If you are a full figured person sometimes if is best if you practice posing in a sort of three quarter stance. You can create a elongate loo9k by thrusting your shoulders back and extending one foot out or crossing one over the other. Just Angle your hip toward the camera and this will allow for a narrower silhouette. Remember stand tall and be proud this is your day!

I my favorite shots are the candid. That is when we get to have fun! Don't worry you are beautiful and the more natural you are the more camera and world will know it!!!

Look for other great ideas at www.atlantaweddingphotographer.nfo.

One more thing to look for in your Wedding Photographer

2009-11-12T03:41:00.000-08:00

There are so many wedding photographers in Atlanta how do you go through them all? There are a few things that you can do to simply weed through the majority of them. First you can see which ones have experience. It is simple this is a important day your wedding day don't trust someone who has never shot a wedding before. There are some many websites out there and so many look the same I have always tried to show as many photography examples along with my wedding photography to show the breadth of my work. Also ask for references. It sounds simple but look at the in the Atlanta wedding photographers on google local, or the local artistic wedding photographers on yahoo. Atlanta brides like to share the good news on photographers they love!

Remember also to check out www.atlantaweddingphotographer.info for help tips and links to Atlanta wedding vendors.

Thank you so much for checking out my blog. Even if you don't book with me I do hope it helps you and takes some of the stress out of planing your Atlanta wedding!

Help for Atlanta Brides and Grooms

2009-11-10T03:31:00.000-08:00

I love the meeting new couples their excitement is almost palateble. I just meet with a wonderful couple on Sunday. He was starting a new career in the Atlanta restaurant business and she was starting a new job in January. All I saw was new beginnings. It is so good to see this new couple and the potential they have. The convection to each other they way they support each other and the plans they have for the future. It is nice to see such hope!

I try to help them by offering advice and helpful wedding tips by suggesting sites such as www.atlantaweddingphotographer.info so they can get a list of Atlanta wedding vendors and also try to educate them by checking out the wedding vendors reviews.

They can book a Atlanta wedding photographer or if they book me. I want to take pictures of their Atlanta wedding that captures the hope, excitement and love they have in their hearts. All the wedding vendors want this to be the most special day ever!

Shooting a wedding with Candle Light

2009-11-09T04:04:00.000-08:00

Had a great time photographing a wedding at wonderful historic home in Duluth, Georgia. The bride had the romantic idea of using candle light for the ceremony (I do love a challenge). I have just up graded my equipent to the latest Canon 5d camera. The newest cameras these days are faster and smarter and allow you to shoot in lower lighting conditions when you crank up the ASA.

When shooting with this candle light from this wedding you can have some great shots. The lighting is very romantic and dramatic. You can see some examples of the wedding photography at www.atlantaartisticweddings.com. What a great wedding! I love it when brides really push the envelope. To see the shots from the is particular wedding just click here.

Keeping up to date on the latestest technology and trends

2009-11-06T05:03:00.000-08:00

As a Atlanta wedding photographer I understand that it is a tough market out there and that I have to be on top of my game. One can not just sit around and live on there laurels. If they do they will be come yesterday's news. Last night I went to a seminar from a professional wedding photographer. His technique was awesome. It is so nice to get a fresh ideas from some one. I was so inspired by his dramatic lighting techniques. Because as we know the meaning of photography is drawing with light! I am looking forward to combining some new ideas to the up and coming weddings that are planned!

Research your Atlanta Wedding Photographer

2009-10-23T04:20:00.000-07:00

As time goes by there are more and more wedding photographers. I am a professional wedding photographer with over 20 years experience. I have worked hard to please my many clients. Because at the end of the day that is all that counts. Your reputation is everything. I have been blessed by many wonderful clients who let me do what I love which is take wedding pictures. You can see review of Atlanta Artistic Weddings at Google maps. Take your time and research you wedding photographer it will be well worth it!

Google has cool free phone call gadget!

2009-10-23T04:00:00.000-07:00

I just thought that I would throw this out there. Just another shout out for Google and it's free tools. I just signed up for Google voice (yep it is free). When you sign up for Google voice you get a free number that you can use to make phone calls on a computer and forward phone calls. You can see the Google designed widget at http://www.atlantaartisticweddings.com/ . It is very cool and free!

Getting the Right DJ - let's make some music!

2009-10-20T05:28:00.000-07:00

During my time as a professional wedding photographer I have seen a lot of DJ's. They come in many different sizes and styles. The two things I always tell every couple that I meet and it has always held true. One deligate on your wedding day everyone around you wants to help and make it a great day. The second thing I say is it is your wedding. With that in mind think about what kind of DJ you want.

Think about what kind of music you would like to have at your wedding. There are certine DJ's that specialize in a ceretin kind music. You can get people who specialize in laid back Frank Sinatra or people who have air guitars and play 80's heavy metal. Like I said they come in many different varieties.

There are DJ's that get the crowd going and organize photos. I have recently worked with one of the best last weekend. He helped me organize some great wedding photography group shots and was genuinely wanted the couple to have a great time his name was Tod Peavy.

Can't Dampen Our Spirits!

2009-09-29T04:11:00.000-07:00

I love my job!! I just shot a wedding at the Braselton Stover House. If you live in Georgia you know how much rain we have been having. It is just off the charts we have been having flooding through out the Atlanta area.

I just want to share that the wedding that I shot. This couple had the right attitude they were going to get married and the rain was not going to dampen their sprits! You can see the photos of this Atlanta wedding at Atlanta Artistic Weddings.

With some simple adjustments on the camera you can't even tell that it is pouring down rain in this photo.

Make a Rain Plan for your wedding

2009-09-21T13:44:00.000-07:00

Today in Atlanta we are having a record amount of rain in short period of time. So I thought it would be a good time to talk about having a rain contention plan for your wedding. After working so many weddings I have seen my share ones effected by rain. The old saying "hope for the best but plan for the worst" is a a good saying because it is true. Most venues I have worked at have always have a back up plan. When working at the Flint house it started to rain and the professionals there turned a outside wedding into a beautiful inside wedding. I have also worked with other professionals such as the ones at the Braselton Stover House. Mary Stover has had many years of experience and a cool head under pressure. Her facility is very conducive all types of weather. As a professional Atlanta wedding photographer I have been trained to be supportive to the couple and to help in any way that I can.

Indian Weddings

2009-09-20T12:20:00.000-07:00

I want to say one of the most colorful and beautiful ceremonies is the ones from the Indian culture. Since working at www.atlantaartisticweddings.com I have gotten the honor of photographing Indian weddings and engagement parties. You can see examples of the engagment party I shot by following the link Atlanta Artistic Weddings Indian Engagement Party. At the site you can see the henna Tattoos and the colorful sarongs. It was so great to see everyone dressed in their traditional clothing and celebrating their culture together. As you can tell from the photographs it is a Atlanta Wedding Photographer's Dream!!!

What to look for in a Church when you are having your wedding

2009-09-20T08:18:00.000-07:00

I have done many weddings at many different church locations through out Atlanta and the surrounding areas. The one thing that can be said that everyone will agree on is that they are all different! Each religion, minister, church group and church have different rules about what a person can and can not do. It is important to look over the church's rules and to ask as many questions that you can so there are no supprizes. I have talked to many people who think that when they rent a church then they can do as they please. But churches have very unique and specific rules that everyone has to respect. As I have said before I am (the photographer) not the most important person at the wedding. The most important thing is the ceremony and the couple. I don't use flash because I don't want to take away from the couple of the scanity of the ceremony. I am not going to be the obnoxious wedding photographer going behind you during the ceremony.

As always ask questions and look around at the different churches to have your wedding. I know there is one out there that will suit you, your wedding and your beliefs. If you have any questions please email me at david@atlantaatisticweddings.com or you can also look at google maps to find a church that is close to your reception venue or home.

I was recently asked what I like about doing weddings and I responded everything! I especially love doing weddings at historical locations around this great town Atlanta. I have worked with some great professionals and I have shared them at my site www.atlantaweddingphotographer.com. I have listed DJs, musicians, wedding planers and locations that I thought were great. I have also made a map of some the great locations atwww.atlantaweddingphotographer.info. It is a interactive map showing a photograph from www.atlantaartisticweddings.com and a location of the venue. I have designed the map to help brides and grooms to find a convenient location wedding location around Atlanta.

Some of my favorite locations are the historical venues. As some of you know I have been a full time photographer for different archeology and historic research firms around Atlanta for close to 20 years. I have learned truly appreciate some of the greatest historical sites in the state. My most recent find is the Brasselton Stover House.

You can see images of the facility at their web site at www.braseltonstoverhouse.com. It is located outside of Atlanta in the Braselton Historic District. There you will Mary and Marvin Stover. They are real down home people that will do their best to make your wedding a day to remember. They have recently added a addition to the back of the historic mansion. You can see some photography I shot there at my site www.atlantaartisticweddings.com There are so many interesting places to shot there from the front porch to the side yard with the historical barns. Also the facility has one of the best bridal rooms of any facility I have seen. It is a really under appreciated wedding facility at a great price!
