Hi there! And welcome to my blog!
I'm Brenda, and I LOVE being a photographer. Being able to do something for a living that never really feels like "work" is amazing. I am a 2005 graduate of the University of Georgia where I studied art and photography. Since then I starting digging my heals in all areas of photography trying to find my niche. Once I tagged along as a second shooter at a wedding with a friend, I knew I had found it. I love that I get to be a part of such an important day in people's lives and document it for generations to pass on.
When I'm not shooting or editing, you can find me hanging out with my husband, Ben at home in Stone Mountain. And next to us on the couch are our two favorite "manimals", our pups Jack and Shorty. This blog will not only follow my recent wedding and portrait work, but you'll get an occasional post about the happenings in our neck of the woods.
So, enjoy! And please contact me if you have any questions or would like to set up a meeting!
So, I’m back!!! My first wedding post baby went amazingly last weekend and I am loving the shots I got of Tom and Stephanie. I have a wedding almost every weekend from now until November so many new photos to be posted I’m sure.
Until then, here is my 8 week old sweet pea...
She’s finally here! My sweet baby girl was born on July 14th and we could not be happier. We had scheduled a c-section for the 14th once we discovered that in her 39th week she flipped upside down (that joker!)! But, at 3am the morning of the 14th, I started contractions anyways. ...
…or better yet, what we are ANXIOUSLY awaiting to happen. We are 38 weeks and 3 days into creating the most precious thing in the world. And my little girl couldn’t get here soon enough. So, if there are no blogs for a while, this is why.
So it has taken me a while to post the full blog of Nikki and Patrick’s wedding day! I have been in full nesting mode, preparing for our little girl who is on her way in a few weeks! We are so excited and you have no idea how ready I am to...
Yes, yes. Granny Panties. It’s just fun to say.
Today’s post is a bit of a sneak peek for Nikki and Patrick who were married at Kimball Hall last Saturday. This was my favorite moment of the day! At the reception, the sneaky Julie handed Patrick some Granny Panties to surprise Nikki with...
I was so excited to finally be shooting Katie and George’s wedding! I met with them last January (2009!) when they booked me for their big day. It seemed so far away at the time, but that year flew by quicker than anyone imagined. Though several small things went awry...
Serena and David’s May 8th wedding could not have been on a more beautiful day. The whole day had this amazing glow to it…maybe it was coming off of the bride and groom? You can tell these two are sooo in love with each other by the way they lit up whenever they...
I can’t tell you how much I love Cassie and Craig. Their wedding day was so much fun, and their positive attitude made the nasty rainy day feel like the sun was shining! They laughed until their cheeks hurt (and I laughed until the baby did a somersault!). These two were so...
What a gorgeous weekend for more shoots! I met up with Stephanie and Tom at Stone Mountain Park on Saturday and had such a good time. These two are crazy in love and soooo cute together! I love that they could barely contain themselves during the shoot and cracked each other up...
I’m sifting through the first edit of Cassie and Craig’s wedding reception at the Ritz Carlton in Buckhead when I stumbled upon this one. I had to share it right away because it just makes me smile! After a few glasses of wine, I convinced the wedding party to come with me to...
