I’ve known Gabe for a few years: he’s an excellent photographer {and all-around cool person} and I’ve had the pleasure of shooting with him a few times, as well. So, I was SUPER flattered when he & his wife April set up an anniversary session with me. Gabe & April are a blend of urban and rural, but laidback all the way, so we shot their colorful anniversary session in Duluth, GA. They were so easy and so fun to photograph; willing to do whatever crazy idea I had in mind, which is SO great. I love how these came out, and how you can really feel those sunbeam smiles they have for each other! Thanks again, Gabe & April!
Brittany & Anthony, whom I’ve been affectionately referring to as Brit & Ant, are a freaking ray sunshine in human form. They are one of the sunniest couples I’ve ever had the complete pleasure of knowing, and their Star Wars meets garden wedding in DeMotte, IN was SO much fun. Jokes and puns and innuendos and nerdy references, GALORE. They’re also aces at creating a wedding that holds true to things important to them as a couple. If something holds meaning for you and you want to add it into your wedding, I’m 100% behind you. Brit had a pair of WICKED pointed heels from Prada, Ant had Star Wars suspenders + TOMS shoes for all his groomsdudes, and the two made a unity Black & Tan at the altar {a combination of Guinness for him and an IPA for her}. PLUS a Stormtrooper helmet-shaped groom’s cake. AWESOME. {PS Anthony’s dad Vince is kind of famous for his dancing, so NOT SORRY in advance for all the pictures of him. They’re my favorite thing ever.} Special thanks to Nicole Defilippis for coming with me on this adventure, second shooting, & sharing in some of the best brunch I’ve ever had. Vendor information at the bottom of the post, advice from Brittany & Anthony throughout.

Raven, thank you sooooo much for having me be your second shooter! You are not exaggerating when you called them a freaking ray of sunshine. In fact, I think it may be understatement. I absolutely loved this couple and I had only met them the day of the wedding. Not only were they awesome, but their family and bridal party were pretty fantastic too. This was honestly one of the funnest weddings I’ve had the pleasure to (assist) photograph. Your photos from this day are gorgeous, you captured so many great moments. It was truly an honor to work with and learn from you. Thank you! And congrats again to Brittany & Anthony! You guys know how to throw a party!
PS. Digging the new site design A LOT.
